He didn’t have to know, and he himself knew of the alternatives for people who don’t “know how to gamble”. Nobody in any country can stop you from using your own money in an unwise manner.

for some reason

it’s probably because the limit for the category of microplastics is “now widely defined as pieces ≤5 mm in size”.

When he said “the system”, he probably meant the system of ad funded services, not the system of the World Wide Web, the HTML markup language, the URL system, and HTTP as envisioned by Sir Timothy John Berners-Lee (born 8 June 1955),[1].

But the modern OpenRCT, written in an actual language, is better in every way.

Yes, at least their attempts at destroying privacy comes directly from the government.

That seems to be the opposite of what the others are saying: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autorun.inf#Inf_handling

Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10

For all drive types, except DRIVE_CDROM, the only keys available in the [autorun] section are label and icon. Any other keys in this section will be ignored. Thus only CD and DVD media types can specify an AutoRun task or affect double-click and right-click behaviour.[9][10]

You are remembering that the executable features of autorun.inf is disabled, which is still true. Autoplay (if enabled) as it exists currently only applies for discovered media file types and makes your default configured media player responsible for handling them. It would not be possible to execute arbitrary tasks unless you had an ACE exploit for the installed media player.

There’s plenty of private MMO servers though.

A lot of people say this and I don’t get it. What would be lost by having each playstyle be balanced properly and then adding difficulty scaling on top of that?

It’s in reference to one of the recurring themes that came up in the blogs and streams of Terry A. Davis, sole developer of TempleOS.

GOG, because I don’t care about badges and achievements and other trinkets, but I do care about DRM

It’s an exploit path to a UEFI bootkit, so at the very least you’d have to throw your motherboard away or find someone that can physically overwrite it through an external flash programmer or something. And the patch should be delivered through a UEFI firmware update, so if your motherboard is no longer supported you would have to buy a new one. And for laptops and embedded devices having everything soldered in, the motherboard is basically the whole computer, so I don’t think it’s that much of an exaggeration.

I guess it’s true that if you have ring 0 access you’re boned, bug if your ring 0 access gets upgraded into ring -2 access you are even more boned. They put those security boundaries in place for a reason after all.

You probably discussed it because you were aware and interested in it, and your awareness and interest showed through in your other trackable habits outside of your chatroom. You only notice when they guess your interests correctly.

What do you mean brother? The whole point of this paper is that the youth of age 18-24 in 2024 are not behaving like the youth of age 18-24 in 2009 up to 2018.

Unfortunately this analysis is a year over year comparison over the same age groups, not an age over age comparison in the same year. So your claim would not apply in this case.

Sure, if they were designed that way, I would not call them defects either.

Just because all defect stock are routed to the US inventory, doesn’t mean that US inventory is made up of all defect stock.

If something happens I’ll make a switch.

To what?

Yes, I understand. I am claiming that colossal weapon users simply have less gaps to exploit and aren’t provided with enough advantages to compensate for the lack of attack opportunities for most bosses. And after playing the other souls games, this lack of opportunity is made even more readily apparent in comparison.

My time with bloodborne (saw cleaver) and sekiro (there is only one playstyle) gave me a taste of From Software’s design when they decide to treat your playstyle as a first class citizen, and I had a wonderful time. I just didn’t get that same feeling at any point in Elden Ring is all.
