This a huge step back for transparency with Meta (shocker). Access to this data is important for a variety of reasons, and using the recent EU laws as an excuse is deplorable (again, shocker from Meta).

It's clear the data companies were left alone for too long to rule the schoolyard. It's going to take some time to treat them and others what decorum looks like without throwing an absolute hissy fit.

Here's hoping the EU, which seems to be the only teacher on the playground willing to discipline anyone, will set them straight.

This should be a setting under "Cast Options" in Google Play Services options. At least that's where that generic notification is on my Pixel.

Won't affect your "direct" casting, like Spotify, just the generic broadcast, without turning off the per device options.

I've turned off the broadcast on every device in my world, because I found it obnoxious.

Yes? Baldur's Gate 3 would like a word.

๐Ÿ˜‚ As a Canuck, we use both. But the computer term is definitely Kernel. Unless we're marching out on a battlefield....

This article is real clickbait.

7%. That's the gains on AMDs new APU. You're going from 48 to 51 FPS.

What's impressive to me is how efficient Valve and AMD got the custom APU that it's taken this long to catch up. The next generational leap will be worth it, but talk to me when we're looking at 25-50% gains. Then you'll be looking at having a real upgrade cycle.

The secret sauce is in the whole package. SteamOS, the controls, and the form factor.

Really enjoyed the demo. 19 CAD is a little steep for what it appears to be though on my end. Looking forward to picking this up on a sale when it's 50% off.

The posterdb was never an automatic source for Plex. They pull from thetvdb/themoviedb. Sometimes there is overlap if someone has uploaded their posters to those sources, but often not.

You have to manually add the posters from the posterdb via link or uploading it to Plex yourself.

Why?

Theposterdb has stated they needed to transition their payment provider, and it didn't make sense to keep incurring costs until that was complete. The reason is right out in the open.
