That's good to hear then! So will most computers having a TPM chip lead to easier integration of secure boot with i.e. linux distros as well?

Does a TPM chip actually bring any relevant security advantages for end users, or is it just for DRM?

This is it for me too. On my desktop where I play some windows-only games it makes sense to go with windows because it's less hassle. On my laptop, it's just easier to use ubuntu or fedora t…

This is true, and if you want the docs you can always just add the word docs to your query. Expecting the search engine to always favor one thing seems like it'd work well in this case for some p…

That's an interesting observation and one I think rings true even though I haven't really actively noticed it. Stuff like tutorialspoint or w3schools is fine imo since they actually write t…

Are those the ones with big.LITTLE designs already?

Damn, they could at least just trash the hard drives and just give them to local schools or something...

How do these engineering samples usually show up in operating systems? Do they also benefit from some specific tweaks made for certain generations?

IMO Enter the gungeon did the metaprogression without making your character stronger part really really well, would hugely recommend trying it out if you haven't and don't mind it being real…

There's an extension for gnome called either Gnome-Look or Sushi, can't look up which it is right now.

I watched some of the talks last night and even as someone who doesn't know anything about game design beyond a few YouTube videos, it's been really interesting and engaging! Huge props to t…

Yeah, this is the exact reason I switched to Apple Music even though I'm on Android, since their playlists (for the most part) seem to actually be made based on what they think will be interestin…

Epic doesn't seem to think so, since they majorly funded it just two years ago. https://www.blender.org/press/epic-games-supports-blender-fo... The only area I could see thi…

I fear with install sizes getting g bigger and bigger with no signs of slowing down, game streaming will become more attractive to more people in the coming years

I'm not an expert, but from what I've come to understand, anti cheat is for the most part about making it as hard or inconvenient to cheat as possible. You'll never be able to stop it, …

Most recently, eFootball released incredibly broken. Or the last gen versions of Cyberpunk 2077 on launch. (And to some extent still now)

They have to make this distinction, because Riot Games' Vanguard runs at system start, to not have cheats start before it according to the developers. I don't like the practice, but I had to…

Yes. There's also icon "packs" that mimic the iOS style, and I believe you can use different icons for different builds between android and ios?

Good, this seems like a no-brainer.

Nah, I think it's fair that very rich people who can be suspected to be skipping taxes lose their right to privacy, at least financial privacy.

Material You is just gorgeous. I love the pastel color schemes it makes, and the shapes are very refreshing compared to what has been "in" for the last few years IMO

When F34 initially came out, PipeWire broke Bluetooth audio on my laptop. But a couple of days later, a patch came in and just fixed it without me having to do anything. Every couple of days, a new up…

theres tens of thousands of !bangs on DDG, its really useful when you get to know the ones useful to you

I agree. It's the one site I can browse on a very limited mobile connection, and I'm very glad about it.

Huh, no idea what it said since it's flagged now, but it was 4 AM when I originally read it so I must've misinterpreted it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The comment reads pretty positively to me? As in, "the kind of people who are strong enough to break through glass ceilings are more than just interchangable corporate robots".

The one thing I'm "jealous" of with iphones as an android user in terms of camera features are live photos, and how seamlessly integrated they are. Whenever friends take live photos, it…

Lots and lots of games, and most new big ones coming out, have cross-play. Apex, CoD, Rocket League jus to name a few.
