I am fairly certain the original version of this meme has red shirt saying Linux and getting beat up

You also need to fully encrypt the traffic in your bit torrent client. You will get fewer peers, but it’s much safer

It might have only even been like six months. It was in the little change log pop up during one of the updates at some point

Just to be clear, I 100% think they are selling our data. What I meant was I’m surprised they’re concerned about the size of the uploads when they could just be selling the uploaded data.

Well that didn’t last very long. It was 8 MB for like six years and then it just went to 25 MB maybe a year ago and now we’re back down to 10 MB.

I’m surprised they aren’t offsetting the cost by selling all our data to language learning models like everyone else is

I can’t believe I’m the first person to post this 8 hours later!

I’ve got one more to add to your list, and I hate it, but it’s worth mentioning: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_notation

It’s when the data type is in the name of the variable.

Whatever you do, don’t use G2A and other similar CD key reseller websites. Developers would rather you just pirate the game because a lot of those keys are stolen, which cause a charge back that ends up costing the developers tens of thousands of dollars in fees. In rare cases it has even bankrupt them.

No OP was right. If the reCaptcha is on the same page as a login, and I use my password manager to fill the fields, I fail the reCaptcha almost every time. I have to manually paste in the user name and password separately to slow things down to act more human…

Why has nobody commented about the examples of demanding games being Call of Duty, Hogwarts Legacy, and Diablo 4 of all games?..

The first two recommend a 1080Ti and the latter recommends a 2060 on high graphics

Unreal Tournament GOTY let’s fucking go!

Presumably if they didn’t comply it would have been a lawsuit

Before looking at VPNs, you should be encrypting your torrent traffic in the client

Note:* Remember that the encryption torrent option only encrypts your inbound and outbound torrent traffic. Although it will not be readable, your traffic can still be intercepted and tagged as torrent traffic. If you want to increase your privacy, you’ll need to encrypt the entire layer 3 traffic (at the IP level), so it is recommended to set Deluge with VPN. To hide traffic at layer 7 (application layer), use a torrent Proxy. And finally, to hide, encrypt, and speed up your torrents, use a Seedbox.*

Nintendo shuts down Smash World Tour ‘without any warning’

Said tournament was going to have the largest ever prize pool of $250,000.

Given the company’s aggressive copyright enforcement, this isn’t the first time that Nintendo has forced grassroots competitions using its games to stop operating, having similarly shut down a Super Smash Bros. tournament in 2020. Nintendo also notably ordered Evo — the world’s largest fighting game tournament — to shut down a planned Melee event in 2013 before reversing the decision.

The Smash World Tour said it will lose hundreds of thousands of dollars as a result of the shutdown but reassures all attendees of the canceled events that they will be issued full refunds.

I went to Sakura Con this year and they had a Quick & Crash arcade cabinet from 1999.

It’s not the oldest game I’ve played this year, but it was definitely the most interesting!

Level 4 has a mug you shoot that appears to really explode

The effect is incredibly convincing!

It works as long as you can get at the authentication key that generates the one time codes. Usually you scan a QR code, but sometimes you have to paste it in as a string.

How you get that private authentication key can vary by service. For example, you can install steam mobile on an android emulator and use an open source program to extract the private authentication key.

Instead of opening Google authenticator or Authy or whatever your preferred 2FA is, you can take photos of the QR codes in Bitwarden mobile to store the TOTP codes in it, and then Bitwarden puts them on your clipboard to paste into websites

Tell them some password managers have TOTP support. I think I paid Bitwarden $10 for life or per year for TOTP so I don’t need to use my phone.

The people upvoting OP and downvoting you have no clue what they’re taking about.

The photo is of a jumper pack, which did come with the console. If removed, the console will not power on. It is NOT a 4MB expansion pack…

All the jumper pack in the photo does is bridge the pins so the console turns on.
