Well, a lot of it found a home in Team Arena, but that wasn't particularly well received.

Look at anything from publisher New Blood Interactive on Steam for a starting point. Mostly retro style FPS from differing eras, but there are a few other game types. Plus you'll struggle to find any that don't have thousands of u

The CEO selling is a bit of a red herring. This covers more of the shenanigans: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOCTSp_U-KI Apologies for a video link but that's all I have.

Simply rephrasing the question would get better responses. "I'm sure they thought of this, but could someone explain why they don't just divert...?"

Thread with many replies, the deepest replies end up very squashed right in portrait, it's annoying to read. As is the flag/dead style but that's another matter. Obviously nothing I can't work around.

The laziest tech equivalence I can think of would be buying a baby monitor and mounting it in the laundry room.

If you pay for a subscription to Audible and accrue monthly credits, they will steal the unused ones back when you cancel the subscription. Not making a judgement either way, just adding more data.

This looks better in the app -> We're too inept to design a good mobile interface and/or we would like more of your data please.

Wow, I've never heard anyone else describe that.. but I had the same on Win95 (iirc) after messing about with the COM port setup too much. You could try to load a website and see there was no transmission going on whatsoever.. but then

I dodged the Atom and picked up an Acer 1810tz. 4gb RAM, intel U4100 CPU, ran rings around netbooks at the time and I still use it here and there to this day. Probably the best keyboard I've ever used on such a small device.

Welcome to hn in recent years. The site desperately needs some form of meta moderation.. I've barely scrolled this thread and seen multiple examples already.

This is similar to the Rogan interview, but I figured I'd mention it here too. MrBeast was just on Flagrant with Andrew Schulz for 4 hours, a day or so ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGrk7Mzm4uo This was also an

Yes. IIRC there were two low level Twitch employees who won something in the giveaway, but I believe they were entered because they performed chat moderation (yes, using the same mod tools normal channel moderators use) for the streamer in

This is fine as long as you notify the account holder based on both a failed 2FA OR just ignoring the 2FA prompt rather than making an attempt. Personally I don't know enough to know if that's the case?

> Facebook, Google, etc would not be calling people back to the office which only serves to increase their costs, if they didn’t have the data to back it up "They must have the data" is a very popular way to appeal to authority

I'd love to know how often a 'reject all' button actually objected to all 'legitimate interest' crap too. I expected the answer is site and consent management system dependent, so where I really couldn't avoid

I have a feeling that OP has used this feature and that it's part of their complaint. I've been using it for many years by now, and have essentially given up on it recently. I'd often set for past year/month and get arti

I think the only module I took that was close to this, for CompSci in UK, was on technical writing.

I got a CAPTCHA variant not long ago that was along the lines of "U2KYS". Pretty toxic!

I used InSpectre to disable meltdown/spectre mitigations on my 2600k. Nothing important was stored on it, it was used purely for gaming. It had a significant effect. I would hold my 144 fps cap in some titles but with mitigations on it

Also the 'reject all' button is often drawn in a greyed out style to make people assume you can't interact with it. The 'accept the status quo' button is always brightly coloured and may as well have blinking arrow

It also has a headphone jack while being IP67 and is still reasonably thin, which is an insurmountable design feat according to some opinions I've seen here. "User replaceable" barely does it justice either. I just had the ba

> They depend on selling their product to security-savy users, so they will ensure it's quality. This is a dangerously naive attitude.

Hilarious that this was downvoted, with a cowardly lack of discourse as usual. Please, continue to assume Putin is a stereotypical cartoon villain. One would think users of a site like HN would have at least passing knowledge of Occam&#x27
