Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone (www.theverge.com)

Microsoft is starting to enable ads inside the Start menu on Windows 11 for all users. After testing these briefly with Windows Insiders earlier this month, Microsoft has started to distribute update KB5036980 to Windows 11 users this week, which includes “recommendations” for apps from the Microsoft Store in the Start menu....

For me, the mods keep the game from becoming too punishing. FNV needs a lot of mods to keep the bugs and the invisible walls from killing your game. FO3 and FO4 need quest fixes and additional quest mods to keep them interesting.

I don't see how this will solve any of these problems he talks about. If he thinks a few bad faith accusations are impossible to tolerate, he's really going to be unprepared for the death threats devs in closed-source companies constantly receive.

It was already bad enough that we're stuck trying to use a trash OS to run our games and soul-sucking corporate crap, but now we have to ditch our customization tools to get updates that we need?

Thank goodness I mostly just use Linux.

Linux in general doesn't have any defined purpose, so the whole Archlinux mentality only really exists in that one distro. It's a little unfair to confuse (for example) Mint and Tiny Core.

Hmm... Maybe we should be helping prevent ruzzia from doing that somehow. Maybe we should offer some financial assistance to a country that is actively seeking to limit ruzzia's ability to threaten others. That's starting to sound like a really good idea.

From what I saw, the game died because:

  • tutorial was way too long and there was no easy way to find objectives
  • hostile locations were mostly barren
  • enemies were super easy to cheese

All things the devs could have gone back and fixed, but they decided to abandon the game.

I guess we're supposed to view farmers as saintly heroes that we owe nothing but unthinking reverence and admiration to. This mindless us-versus-them thinking is what makes an oil CEO, and that explains a lot about why they don't hesitate to massacre the future of our world with their abominable decisions.

A second big bang? The radical idea rewriting dark matter’s origins (www.newscientist.com)

By mulling over colliding bubbles on a cosmological scale, physicists are finding cause for speculation about fresh sparks of cosmic creation. It is possible, they say, that in the weeks after the big bang there was a second, similarly profound moment of transformation. This one may have spawned monstrous shadow particles...

Unity issue an apology on Twitter for "confusion and angst" over the runtime fee policy. (nitter.net)

We have heard you. We apologize for the confusion and angst the runtime fee policy we announced on Tuesday caused. We are listening, talking to our team members, community, customers, and partners, and will be making changes to the policy. We will share an update in a couple of days. Thank you for your honest and critical...

Berkeleyside spoke to one landlord planning to attend the eviction moratorium party who was frustrated that they could not evict a tenant—except that they could evict the tenant, who was allegedly a danger to his roommates—but the landlord found the process of proving a health and safety violation too tedious and chose not to pursue it.

I feel like people should really read this part and fully absorb what it means.

How would someone, hypothetically, pirate Baldur's Gate 3 without being able to torrent?

I am interested in how pirates on the internet (which i am not) would get there hands on the files to a game, just, for example, Baldur’s Gate 3, without torrenting? Now, I have heard tell of a place where these nefarious no-gooders would do this, for example gog-games.to. But, once they have acquired the file, what steps to...

"there hands"

"nefarious no-gooders"

"to these pirates"

"illegal files"

"of course"

Critical vulnerability in WebP Codec has browser vendors scrambling for updates (stackdiary.com)

This affects all browsers and not just Chrome, as the media falsely reported it. Mozilla just rolled out a fix, and Brave is looking into it. This bug is likely related to the “zero-click” iOS 0day that was reported by Citizenlab last week.

You can land on Pluto though you aren't really meant to. It's just there for decoration.

This is similar to how you can glitch outside of Whiterun in Skyrim, though doing that in the same worldspace as Whiterun will just let you be up close to the low-detail versions of the outer world, which you aren't really meant to do.
