SteamCMD doesn't strip Steam DRM - even with files backed up (which the Steam GUI will do, no need for SteamCMD), you wont be able to use them without an internet connection and au…

You've always had the _option_ of paying extra for unlimited data, however its only in the past month or two that they've started offering unlimited data as standard (in select mar…

I'm all for the DSA as well, but this argument doesn't hold water. Any sufficiently large cloud provider alternative (ie. Google, Microsoft, etc) would likely be the target of simi…

So, this seems like an alternative to things like Apple Pay and Google Wallet. What's the benefit of the banks? Bigger cut of the transaction fees somehow? I must admit, I use Appl…

This (or, PainStation v2) visited the student union at Abertay University a good 15 or so years ago. I played it on many occasion. One aftertnoon I played with a particularly compe…

They're not non-existent, I work with a few myself. But generally I've found that they're single, live by themselves, and enjoy the social interactions of meeting coworkers in pers…

That's not what the OP claimed at all. Paper tickets still exist. A mobile phone is not requisite. People can choose the option that works for them.

No, that's the second link - generated data, separate from tweets. Tweets alone generate petabytes of data a year. https://ankush-chavan.medium.com/twitter-data-storage-and-pr... A…

It does not fit on one machine. Tweets alone generate petabytes of data a year, and other events are petabytes per day. https://blog.twitter.com/engineering/en_us/topics/infrastruc…

You're not taking into account data, you're only talking about features. What about when the data no longer fits on the one machine? Or processing the data exceeds the capacity of …

Just to clarify, Mindstorms has had many iterations. I believe what you're referring to is Mindstorms 1.0 (RCX). It's had three successors in the past 20 years or so - NXT, EV3, an…

That may have been your intention, but your statement of "environments where people aren't curious" comes across as putting the blame on the people themselves. As has been stated e…

> The part that irked me here was I only got like 1 years use out of the software. Surely it doesn't actually stop working after a year? ie. You can keep using the version you boug…

You're correct, just checked my receipt, it was 16GB. I upped it to 32GB with my new laptop.

I bought my 2013 MacBook Pro with a 1TB SSD and 32GB of RAM, with the highest specced i7 at the time. I sold it last month to pick up a new 2021 MacBook Pro M1 Max. I bought it wit…

You're forgetting the set design in the first place. All the knockoffs do is copy the set with their own bricks. The few other brick manufacturers that design their own sets are cl…

"deadly" is not the same statement as "as deadly".

I find it similar to the two currently in-vogue uses of the world "Metaverse" - you've got the crypto/web3 people using it to describe a world where NFT's are usable and recognised…

I find this pretty funny - I can't imagine carrying more than two cards around with me on a daily basis. In fact one is just a backup. I do of course have many more cards; one of t…

You still can, but that's for pentests _targetting_ AWS hosted infrastructure. They've always frowned upon using AWS to target _other_ services, however.

Literally everybody in my company (a large enterprise) uses a laptop as their main workstation. They work with them docked at their desks, but then unplug them to take them to a me…

I believe the money owed to Apple is a seperate concern, raised from their apparent breach of contract. At the time Fortnite was available on the App Store, the Apple In-App Purcha…

Except, Google Reader died in 2013, and RSS lives happily on. It's rare I come across a website without an RSS feed. They don't advertise it, but it's there - I presume because wha…

Focus can be set automatically in the desired field using Javascript, and tricks can be done to hide that field too - ie. set opacity so it's transparent, etc. You can make it work…

I find this funny - Dogecoin has as much value as Bitcoin. It still takes energy (and therefore money) to mine, and the resulting "coin" has value - that being how much someone is …
