The former, easier to read. That being said, studies suggest the font isn't as effective as they'd have you believe.

The gameplay looks fine. It looks like a Doom game. But I won't buy a game with DRM, so I won't be buying it until that gets removed (at earliest).

Is the maximum 24 characters because their database column is a VARCHAR(24)? That's one of the first questions that I thought of. Sure, it doesn't guarantee plaintext, but it's a indicator that it may be stored plaintext, considering hashing doesn't care about length. Or at the very least whoever has had eyes on this code doesn't know shit about security, which makes me less confident in the product as a whole.

The only reason I can think of to have a maximum would be to save on bandwidth and CPU cycles, and even then 24 characters is ridiculously stingy when the difference would be negligible.

I'll limit this to devices in use.

  • phone
  • laptop for work and occasionally personal
  • steam deck
  • gaming desktop
  • 4 bay Asus NAS
  • 2 mini PCs (headless)
  • 9 VPSes of varying size (I get them free via work)

Whoops! Didn't notice that typo. I wouldn't even dream of subjecting my steam deck to the same 900 mods as my PC.

I modded Cyberpunk 2078 and jumped straight to the NNM app, no issues. Running quite a few mods.

That kind of looks like the at a glance feature. Perhaps you have a timer setup on a Google Home device? Or had.

I wouldn't really be able to tell with the information it provides. But that 1KW figure does factor in the camera array since I can access it idle.

The amount of power those screens use is peanuts compared to the drive train.

I can chill in my car with AC, screens, and charge my steam deck for hours and my battery only goes down a couple %.

My car uses 1KW in that state. That's as precise as it shows me, so I'm guessing it's rounded up. Taking it at face value, with a 65KWh battery it would take 65 hours to drain completely (I like easy math).

My main issue with the singular "God" portrayed in many mainstream religions is that it's billed as omnipotent and all powerful.

If a person has the ability to, through action, prevent great harm, and just ignores it - that is not the type of person I want to be, more or less "believe in". If you're all powerful and you allow children to be maimed for life, die young, starve, etc. - you aren't worth an ounce of my faith. And save the classic "but if he intervened it would interfere with our free will" bullshit.

I've considered religions with many gods, like Norse Paganism - I'm just not the religious type, but if I were, something where gods are fallible is much more believable.

Usually when I suspect a hardware issue I start by unplugging every external device that isn't the keyboard. If that does the trick, in they go again one by one. Otherwise, it's time for hardware to get the same treatment. Unfortunately your processor doesn't have on board graphics, so unless you have a donor system you can borrow a known working good GPU from, I'd probably try and reseat the GPU (remove, maybe canned air to blow out slot, back in).
