How well does spam filtering work for you?
How well does spam filtering work for you?
I happened to be in the apple temple to supplicate the priests there for an exorcism for one of my other infernal contraptions. I saw the vision pro sitting around while he did his incantations so I thought I’d check it out and it turns out they won’t let you without an appointment. It’s like they don’t want to sell these
Eh they’ll find something else to whine about
I suppose there might be features I’m missing from meets/Hangouts but 1) I don’t know what they might be, and 2) I’ve used the services regularly and not had any trouble.
Refresh the page once in reader mode if that happens
Man this thread is making me mad so I’mma head out
I stuck with 7 for an extremely long time under similar reasoning. Like I missed win 8 completely and only got 10 in maybe 2018. And only because I needed a version of directX for work that was unsupported on 7.
And it was the same shit back then. 10 was pulling a lot of the same tricks. Ads, reinstalling candy crush without permission, more bloat and antifeatures.
Eventually a combination of third party tools and understanding of how to keep the garbage at bay made 10 tolerable. And, I guess, now 10 is the semi-reliable legacy alternative to the current shitfest.
Is there a Shutup10 analogue for Windows 11? Or an LTSC? Not looking forward to having to go through that dance again. But I assume the day will come.
As a counterpoint to most of the cynicism here, this is how the company I now work for formed. Caveats include: the founder had a lot of money because he had previously worked for a big name Internet company when it was a startup, and we spend almost all of our time as contractors for other studios rather than developing in-house IP.
Ngo monitor is right wing bullshit with zero credibility.
Holy fuck. 373 games. I’m very touched that so many are giving their hard work away to support this cause. Got it and added the extra payment on.
I think it’s fair to acknowledge that everything is a trade-off, and without downvotes, we have to accept the downsides.
I’m not sure that’s true - I’m pretty sure it comes from Japanese and other Asian games like Maple Story, then it got picked up by mobile games companies as they were figuring out monetization there, especially Zynga.
constantly screwed over by apple changing things on their platforms.
This was it for me. Like, you’re going to blame valve because apple keeps pulling the carpet out from under devs and users?
What if you do end up accidentally or negligently sharing this never-to-be shared identity? What if you’re unlucky enough to live somewhere where the government is one of your principal adversaries, like a Palestinian in Israel or a gay person in any number of jurisdictions? And how would you prevent the proliferation of plain ol unsigned data?
No. How about you, are you anti-abortion?
I’m not sure I follow the last “or” clause, but you can bring the criminal liability to Microsoft if you think it should attach for this reason
Lol.
As long as security updates are bundled with antifeature updates, this amounts to “install candy crush or go to jail!”
I’d be fine with what you describe in the second paragraph, but that’s not what’s meant by “forced.” That’s opt-out. Forced is what’s really objectionable, especially when it’s abused, as discussed in the article and elsewhere in these comments.
Even at the risk of Microsoft adding more spyware to my machine, reinstalling apps I deliberately uninstalled, reverting privacy settings I set, strongarming me into using their browser, etc? All of which has been reported.
My hardware, my choice.
Eyyyyy (╭☞´ิ∀´ิ)╭☞
