Good point. And sounds like you’re in a similar headspace to.me on the topic. Personally I’m not a huge fan of live service games, but I can see why a lot of people would want to avoid killing them.

Not saying you’re wrong, but how can the source code be “open” and not publicly accessible? If it’s not, that’s just a closed codebase that is shared with some external people, surely?

More thinking of the ios app store in this case. But they’re also ripping off the osx dock, IMO. :P

I’ve not booted into windows for a few weeks now. It’s been pretty smooth sailing, one horrifically unoptimised game aside.

It’s not about security. Not anymore, anyway. Maybe when Authenticode was first added to windows. Now they just want to scare users into getting everything through their store, because they’re perennially jealous of the shit Apple can get away with.

What`s the censored one about?

I’m pretty sure no card can conjure me into existence, no matter how many or few lines of text they have… :P

No, see, he’s like santa. He can break the sound barrier under his own power in his goal to spread e. coli.

Knowing he won’t be around to see the result of his climate change denial does not make me happier :/

Yeah, I would rather wait for the one active checkout rather than have to go through the rigmarole of scanning one item, putting it in the bag, waiting for it to register before doing the next. The employees get to scan multiple things at once and do things like “scanned item x6”. Until self-checkout technology advances to the point I can do the same, it can fuck right off.

So this is that mewing thing I’ve heard about, right?

Ahhh, how logical :P

thanks

The fucker is a chaser?

I personally prefer like/dislike over a star rating system. Maybe, MAYBE having a middle “meh” rating would be helpful but at the end of the day you either recommend something or you don’t. If you ask a friend “should I play this?” and they say “idk man” that’s basically a recommendation to not play it.

Sekiro is not a soulslike, it’s Ninja Gaiden. :P

There is that, I suppose. Would just be nice if this self-centred speech pattern weren’t a thing. I don’t really see it in other English speaking countries, but all the time in US news and media.

Not really?

I don’t believe there was any specific API in use here, for virus scanning or not. I suppose maybe the device driver API? I am not a kernel developer so I don’t know if that’s the right term for it.

Crowdstrike’s driver was loaded at boot and caused a null pointer dereference error, inside the kernel. In userspace, when this happens, the kernel is there to catch it so only the application that caused it crashes. In kernelspace, you get a BSOD because there’s really nothing else to do.

I know Americans like to say “American” instead of “person” all the time, but are you really implying the rest of us deserve to get shot?

While I agree with this, why is it in quotes? Who is OOP quoting? Like, would this be less convincing without the quotes?
