  Right. It blows me away the required training we have to do for physical files more secured than Fort Knox! Tech world? Eh just throw it in the recycle bin

  So pretty much Django in the AC lore. I’d play it!

  If VPNs get outlawed for some reason in AZ, Tor is another option. Make sure you download it from their site sonce there are fake Tor apps in the playstores

  Man, I forgot about this! I played this and Pokemon Yellow a ton during my childhood. It was a unique game

  We don’t need AI. Stop destroying the environment with stupid AI

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enthusiasts bond twelve 56K modems together to set dial-up broadband records — a dozen screeching boxes achieve record 668 kbps download speeds⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I bet you could get slightly quicker speeds if they ran a pihole or something to block ads.

  This is kind of an interesting idea. I wonder if it’s feable to reuse all the old 56k modems?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google says adblockers caused YouTube views count to drop - this is what adblockers told us really happened⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  (shrug) don’t care if it affects views, never should have had them in videos regardless.

  I’m only on reddit for a few subs and the pointless awards. I’m hovering close to 500 day in a row award lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is 128 players too much for a multiplayer FPS? Yes, says Battlefield 6⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I do miss it. I was so cool playing the 3 PMC groups against each other in that game mode. I also ejoyed being about to “prestige” into the other PMC groups. Such a good game

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is 128 players too much for a multiplayer FPS? Yes, says Battlefield 6⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you have a bad game, it’ll still be a bad game with more players.

  When games before it were really popular and did well with the same or more players, it’s a BF 6 issue. MAG (256 PS3 only), Joint Operations Typhoon Riisng/Escelation (150 on vanillia and 300 with IC mod), or more recenty: Arma Reforger (128) all have done really well and solid games too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Linux Mint 22.2 “Zara” Is Now Available for Download⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I updated last night and don’t see much of a change in my experience other than my toolbar icon look different. I streamed fo 2.5 hours on Arma Refroger no issues

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Linux Mint 22.2 “Zara” Is Now Available for Download⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hard to say without specs. I’d go with XFCE and then MATE right behind it. With a lower end PC, I doubt it could handle the fanciness of Cinnamon and still run software

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PSP games that are enjoyable without the nostalgia-factor⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! What Did I Do to Deserve This?

  Really unique game that didn’t get favorable reviews. Def check it out!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google: 'Your $1000 phone needs our permission to install apps now'". Android users are screwed - Louis Rossmann⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This 100%

  I have used tracfone since 2012 and only bought phones from their store, sub $150. The budget phones today are so much better than the last 10 years.

  I just can’t wrap my head around sinking that much into a phone when you replace it every year and it cost as much as a decent budget computer, but worse.

  The “model’s” right hand only has 3 fingers

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I’m holding off until it’s like 50% off. I watch a few playthroughs and it just bugs me how the characters looked compared to the original. I just feel like it lost the charm the original had, just shiny graphics

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google Gemini’s AI image model gets a ‘bananas’ upgrade⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And it still can’t make hands correct

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Americans’ junk-filled garages are hurting EV adoption, study says⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It depends. More rural areas are single family/duplex set ups. If you are more urban you’ll find complexes or even skyscrapers in large metro areas :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Americans’ junk-filled garages are hurting EV adoption, study says⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Some apartment buildings are nowhere near where tenets park vehicles. Running extention cables would be a mess and dangerous

  I had a Sansa Fuse about a decade + ago.

  Is there an issue with getting a used smartphone with no service and a headphone jack?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨From Book Bans to Internet Bans: Wyoming Lets Parents Control the Whole State’s Access to The Internet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I really wish I was code savvy, I would make a more modern version of Freenet or Zeronet so State’s can’t ban websites
