How far is the company willing to go to prevent cheating? Cameras in people’s homes to make sure they’re not using another computer that your anti-cheat has no access to?
If players tolerate that then competitive gaming is going in a deeper dark pit of proprietary spyware in the name of fighting cheating, an arms race with no end.
Is that title the answer to the CharDee MacDennis trivia question, “Columbus is asshole. Why Charlie hate?” I hope so, because that’s what it made me think of
Ok, I guess so basically you’re ‘suggesting’ that it would be a good idea for instances to keep, update and post an updated community list so people can pass them around?
NSFWI was with my mistress one day when she heard her husband walking up the drive. She said, “quick, use the back door!”. I wasn’t sure we had time, but it’s not every day you’re offered anal
Dude I worked for in 2008 (small IT support company) insisted we store all the domain logins and passwords for all our customer's networks on our internal Sharepoint system and forward a port to RDP on all their domain controllers. It was a fucked up place to work with every procedure pulled out of someone's ass on the spot.
Having bounced around using a lot of different apps while on the same instance that, afaik, hasn’t defedersted from anything: I think it has more to do with how the apps work. I can refresh Jerboa, Raccoon and Connect all at the same time on 3 different devices, sorting the same way and in the same space (all), and get entirely different results from each one or go into the same post and see less comments in one app than I do in another.
One of the things I like most about my customer-facing technical role is that users find the craziest bugs. My favorite is a bug in a chat program that would keep channels from rendering and crash the client. The only clue I got was “it seems to be affecting channels used by HR more than other departments, but it’s spreading.”
Turns out the rendering engine couldn’t handle a post that was an emoji followed by a newline and then another emoji. So when the HR team posted this, meaning “hair on fire” it broke things:
User reported bugs can be wild. I had one where the user was tapping a button repeatedly so fast that the UI was not keeping up with the code and would no longer sync certain values properly. I’m talking like tap the button 15 times in a second. Another issue involved flipping back and forth between the same page like 10 times then turn the device Bluetooth off and immediately back on.
Why the fuck are your users flipping a page back and forth 10 times. I understand the Bluetooth bit, they wanted it to restart probably from a device not showing up. Also what was the issue
I can’t remember what the exact issue was that was produced by those steps. I want to say it was some sort of visual bug where parts of the page wouldn’t load. I do know that it only happened if you toggled Bluetooth within seconds of flipping the pages so many times. I honestly have no idea why the user decided to change pages so many times. You could take a little bit of time changing the pages, so maybe they kept viewing a page and backed out only to want to view the page again?
Gotta love user reported bugs. I had one that reported a product of ours crashed only on Mondays. We spent a total of 5 minutes thinking of a cause and appointed customer support for a Friday morning. Lo and behold the app still crashed.
In this case the app only crashed on Mondays… because that’s when this user actually used the application
I did actually find a very similliar bug in the experimental rendering engine of element (the matrix client). So yes, this is something that exists somewhere else too.
The monitor disappeared rather than the computer, but we can assume the tower somewhere under the desk did as well. But what of the keyboard? It’s in the icon, yet remains after deletion!
