Actual proof of what? That Dr. Disrespect sent private messages to a minor? I guess I would take him at his own word since he tweeted admitting it hours ago.

I typed it in, on one of the question where we could for drive. I did my part!

The flags are literally floating. There are no structures close enough for them to be attached to

Holy moly great news. There's hope for our /home after all. I think Firefox has an open bug thread or request thread for XDG Base Directory that's like ..20 years old?

Former maintainer of the .xz project for about a year or two. Hid a backdoor into the code that almost made it into many bigger distros if it wasn't found by a Microsoft employee.

I mean you can add non steam games to steam. And you can then run them with compatibility tools such as Proton. Just right click the game and I think in preferences it'll have an option to force the use of compatibility tools.

I own quite a lot of mp3s legally. Host them on a 50 dollar raspberry pi with something called Navidrome which uses a protocol called subsonic.

I can stream my own music from my home to my phone etc or anywhere. Otherwise yeah just having them locally is the other best option.

As an Ohioan myself. Fuck Gym Jordan. He shouldn't be allowed to hold a government position.

While it undoubtedly saves Sony money to produce and ship a smaller console none of those savings are being passed on and the new model costs the same as the current “fat” model.

I think that may have been the case years ago, I don't know that it's necessarily true here.

As a programmer: “your data is boring. I am not interested in leveraging this for anything besides getting the service you are using to work as well as possible”

Also me as a programmer: “yo, you don’t need that data, stop asking for it. Ohh, your app is broken because it can’t access permissions? Yeet.”

It's not about the programmers. It's about the company and the ability to make money off of data they get from you. You should be the one who gets money for your data. Not Microsoft, not Google etc.

Is Microsoft making money off of this particular telemetry data? Maybe not. It should always be opt-in

This just simply isn't accurate. There are often extra features that require an internet connection. And there are also some blu-ray movies that might require some form of internet connection to watch but the vast majority of consumer blu ray movies require no internet connection to watch them.
