Yeah it’s basically just chrome with a different UI wrapper and none of the aggressive data collection, plus a bunch of bundled adblocking & other privacy stuff. It’ll still work with Chrome plugins and all existing bookmarks etc.

lol, wipe down the keyboard and mouse and then switch his browser to Brave. It seems to work more reliably as a “set and forget” solution with minimal “friction”… Just toggle off all its own built-in upsells.

If only all spammers and scammers were as successful as the Flugelhorns of Fu&$wits we’d all lead much better lives.

You could always just install an old standalone version of Office from before 365 was a thing - before the great enshitification. It’s not like they’ve actually changed anything useful in 20+ years.

Yeah, that’s rubbish behaviour, both on a professional and personal level.

I can understand it if it was a conversation with a Harvey Weinstein or some other such creature of the night, but otherwise hard agree. I don’t know the context you’re referring to.

I bought this PC mostly for gaming, switching to Mac years ago for everything else was clearly the right move. Looking forward to Steam OS being released with wider hardware support. I hope it obliterates Windows gaming. Windows 11 needs to die.

Doggo is awesome. Screw the trolls. It’s your game, not theirs. Normal folk will love it.

Glad to hear it, the fires there are heavy on all our minds. We’re used to fires here down under, but the scale of devastation you’re all facing is just heartbreaking.

Uggghh totally this. Worked on sports games, had to research stuff. Forever doomed. That and push notification news updates from reputable providers who seem to consider cricket updates as breaking news.

I worked on games that for years never rated well with critics, largely because they were not the target audience. The target audience however 20 years later are still making YouTube videos about how much they adored some of those games in their childhood. Hang in there.

Sequels upon sequels of successful brands is episodic though, but in the way TV shows have different series. People just aren’t as invested in “episode 2” as they are GAME 2.

It’s cool to have worked on the game of that movie. At least the movie was good. ;)

MANY years ago, before CI/CD was even a dream, we had builds mysteriously crashing intermittently in QA for many days until we worked out it depended on the version of Visual Studio it was built with - ultimately what machine built it. We moved to a dedicated build machine after that.

The convenience of a car certainly sways people away from forward-planning their public transport options though.
I’d much rather be on a train than driving into the city. It’s the regularity of the bus timetables to get me to/from my local stations that tends to let that plan down.
