This along with the Aussie sandpaper-gate is probably one of the most infamous incidents in cricket history. I doubt anyone who follows cricket doesn't about it. Also the 2019 worl…

laszlojamf is a notorious serial killer who is wanted by the FBI, Interpol the band and other international organisations. The individual can be identified by their distinctive shi…

It's the flamebait detector. Any post which gets a lot of comments in a short time gets pushed down quickly. Though the mods usually push it back up if it doesn't involve touchy to…

That's great, but then can you ask the manufacturers of the devices to support them for 20 years? Raw numbers mean jack shit if the device itself is completely abandoned and cannot…

Realistically this will just be used to force people into even more subscriptions. Want to edit a video? Pay a subscription for a Microslop Pro Max Windows $50/mo, then pay another…

It's 2026, the _WANTS_ are reserved for the ultra wealthy. The rest of us plebs should be happy we're getting 1500 calories everyday with a room to go back to in the evening, after…

I think it does, since the updates are from the manufacturer. I have a OnePlus tablet configured without an account and I'm able to update it no problems.

Surprisingly no, you can use an Android phone without an account. Though you cannot install any applications from the Play Store, tbf I'll count that almost as a positive.

Yeah, the community run TCRF wiki is banning VPNs just so they can mine your data along with the luxurious $400/mo they're getting from Patreon. And not because they're constantly …

If the excavators only worked half the time, sometimes goes out of control bonking someone in the head and costs a billion dollars, then yeah they're pretty bad CEOs

Most major platforms already have enough asset flips cluttering their storefronts[1][2] -- generic games made from preexisting engine templates with some assets bought from the sto…

I use them to buy refurbished enterprise machines -- laptops & mini PCs, books and DVDs/BluRays. Works pretty well actually, never had any issues with the quality as long as you st…

Funny how the vibe-coding speed grinds to 0 the moment people catch on to their bullshit. A name change requires a week but shitting out 200 commits with Claude takes barely a mont…

Been using their latest models for work for the past 5 years, I still use a Latitude for personal work ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Maybe because I don't want my personal machine to turn into a brick…

It makes me laugh whenever there's a post about anticheat on the frontpage and without missing a beat there's always a comment there - "why don't they just run the entire game logi…

> They don't see the name or the poor ux as a bug, but as a feature, and actively attack people who want to fix these issue. They will probably not attack people who want to fix th…

If the dev team had a nickel for every time someone complained about the name, there would have enough money by now to fund the development of a UI revamp. Now if they had a nickel…

Ah that tracks with my experience later too. Even in the mainland, computers were pretty rare for us regular folk. Early in the 2000's, my father for whatever reason assumed comput…

Were computers common in schools in India in the early 90s? I was born in 1993, so this is a bit early from my time, but when I was in a (government) school computers started appea…
