I don’t think that does an actual rewite point. A lot of the localisation features were done using file explorer. You can even “localise” folders yourself using custom desktop.ini files. But those changes only showed in file explorer.

Now email! In exchange the standard folders such as inbox are localised, but don’t have a fixed alias. So if doing administration you need to know the language of a mailbox to know the name of say the Calendar folder, so you can update permissions.

I can’t believe someone else got gunman chronicles. Although mine looks more like a half life cover than yours.

Rtcw is also my goto memory whenever someone mentions Wolfenstein. The modded 64 player servers were a blast despite the lag.

Yea sometimes you don’t really know what is in the bundle you got. At least you didn’t buy it multiple times.

But you’ll get around to them at some point, and it’s a good deal so if you buy it later it might cost more. No it’s fine you definitely won’t get distracted by another game and will start it after the one you are playing just now.

I don’t know what you mean “I’ve had that unplayed game for 17 years,” I’m going to play it next, (after this one I’m about to buy.)

Probably even easier than places like twitter, as your can set up a server and others will even push all the data to you.

You got it on the nose, only one device.

Realistically early access launches are just launches. Some games get a boost and surge when they go 1.0, but the vast majority don’t. Using the ea tag may put more people off than the buggyness, and people forget about the game 3 years later when it hits 1.0. I think paradox knew about it and just decided it would reduce sales more then the bug reports would.

Don’t get me wrong I don’t think games with major bugs should be released as a 1.0 product if they are asking a high price. There are great games that started ea and became great, but it was a risk for them when they did that.

Don’t feel bad, on my first flight I ran into the sun by accident.

Kept working on it and was rewarded with the rest of the game. For real I continued to die to spaceship piloting issues but it didn’t ruin the game for me.

If you don’t mind having email go through Gmail etc, then you might not want to full host, but just run a local IMAP server. There are some pop to SMTP solutions you can use to pull your emails (fetchmail.) you can then use your account as an outbound relay. Keep in mind you’ll only be able to set this up for a single account if you use something like Gmail.

If you buy a business product like workspace or m365, you should be able to setup relay/hybrid connectors for multiple accounts.

You’re not safe there either, they had almost the same issue on the Linux version of the product a few months ago.

Added the ability to save a specific frame of a video as a steam screenshot

I was actually using snipping tool for this as it was missing. Being able to get a screenshot of something after the fact is a nice feature.

Doesn’t have to be update and shutdown, I will click shutdown and it just reboots. Even disabled fast startup, so it’s not getting a wake event just as it’s hibernating.

Yea, this is not cheap companies doing cheap things. This is companies getting annoyed by stupid licencing and restrictions, getting around the problem.

Starting June 2024, iFixit will no longer be Samsung’s designated third-party parts and tools distributor. Also starting next month, we will no longer have a quantity limit of seven Samsung parts per repair shop per quarter.

Wow that is quite a limit Samsung. I can see why no one would want to be a partner with them. (Which was obviously the point.)

Sure, but that term does not violate the first amendment since the government didn’t stop you from saying it, so would hold up. You might be able to get it thrown out due to something else, you would need a lawyer for that.

That contract will have penalties for violations, and those are what you would be subject to if in violation.

You are aware that first amendment protects speech from government actions/bodies only. It’s not something you can use against a private business (there are other laws for discrimination.)

Did they think about how far I would have to move my hand to type it? Sudo is only in two easy to reach places on the keyboard, run0 is 4 separate areas of the keyboard, one two rows from home and none on the home row.

I’m only partially joking.

It depends where you want the complexity.

Since ssh is a layer4 tunnel if you don’t run a proxy on your home box, you’ll need a new network connection for each service, if you are fine with that, I would set it up only on the VPS. This means if the tunnel goes down, you should at least get 502 error rather than a timeout or connection refused.

Alternatively you could forward 80, 443 to a proxy service on the home server. That would require two ports for the ssh.

You can drop it to a single ssh connection by having a proxy on both and just have the VPS proxy Http and https to the same port on the home server.

One issue is that some people are still on windows 7 installs that were upgraded. Windows 7 had a large enough partition for then, but the upgrade now needs more. Unfortunately 2009 Microsoft didn’t anticipate that this should be bigger for 2023 installs. Making it larger is a hassle I wouldn’t want to code either.

This must have been xp or earlier. Since vista there was a shared key and certificate for each OEM that paired with a code on the motherboard. And since 8 or 10 there is now a key in the motherboard that has been pre-registered with the activation servers. Now when you activate a retail key, it registers the motherboard not the install, so a reinstall gets activated automatically.
