Discord is terrible for assistance.

Search is ineffective, you have to actually fight the UI to go back to older messages, depending on the device there are still somehow cases in which you can’t go back to the beginning of a thread. But thank you for putting a huge reminder that I am currently “reading through old messages”, silly me, why would I want to do that.

Oh, you’re trying to scroll down through old posts? Let me suddenly refresh the list for no reason and bring you back to the most recent ones. Everything past the third screen might as well not exist anymore.

And of course, there is the slight problem of every useful info written there being completely invisible to the rest of the internet.

So to be clear, this key sequence is just how windows interpret the key, the hardware is exactly the same and any other OS can still use it as the context menu key?

Edit : oh, just saw the thing about the linux workaround. So no, they actually fucked it up on hardware level. Wow.

The power of vibe coding, everyone. Deploying shit with minimal effort at the cost of total incompetence.

No idea, I know nothing about it except what’s in the article. Though coming from the UK, if that was part of a government campaign like I’ve heard since, that would not really surprise me.

Bullshit, my 80’s computing thingy just went from 464 to 6128 (plus). You know, logical progression.

OK, that definitely counts.

Congratulations, would totally accept a shady surprise burger from you.

I’ve heard the reason for the name of XBox 360’s successor was that some marketing geniuses heard that most people called it “the three-sixty” for short, and thought “Great! Let’s call this the XBox One, and it will be referred to as The One! Like Neo!!”

And then, everyone collectively agreed on “XBone” 🦴

The tweet was slightly off then, Gamecube was just released at the end of 2001 and Wind Waker is 2003.

Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask were 1999 and 2000 though.

I mean, if NES was retro in 2006, XBOX 360 can be retro in 2026.

though I have no idea what counts as classics on 360

Fake it till you… Scratch that, just fake it.

Not sure, but who needs a Voigt-Kampff test with replicants looking that bad?

Yeah, looks like it doesn’t exist anymore.

It did fulfill its purpose though, it was actualized when Wolverine came back.

And unlike Wolverine, please stay dead when you get there.

Note, as far as I can tell from thos announcement, this does not cover all French public officials. There are 3 groups of them, state, local and health. This is specifically about state administration.

Local administrations could follow national recommendations, but it would ultimately be in the hands of locally elected representatives.

That “guy” was not yet censored everywhere when I looked at their history. Every post was the same ad for yet another crypto con.

I was wondering a bit about this too, what about usual obsession with dangerous blue haired feminazi. Though maybe that’s more of a US thing.

Maybe it’s because of that too :

The origins of the character are ironic, to say they least. An early iteration of Amelia began life in a counter-extremism video game

If you are unfamiliar with Amelia, the chances are you will soon encounter one viral meme or another inspired by her on Facebook or X

…no. that is not likely.

It was certainly pushed on many PCs that had no business trying to run it, especially laptops. But honestly I’ve used both XP and Vista and even on a computer that could run it, I didn’t see anything that justified how much more resources it required.

I’d say XP was decent for its time, and 7 was kind of a sweet spot of the NT branch too. Before that 9x tended to become unstable (especially 95, and I’ve heard Millenium Edition was awful but I never had it).

Vista, 8, everything since 10, all terrible. Especially since Microsoft has started to push for cloud, AI, live services, automatic translation, total disregard for user settings…

Yeah.

I have a quest. I still hate meta.

My next headset won’t be from them, and I can’t wait for them to realize they don’t give a fuck about VR anymore and abandon it for another fad.

I won’t regret their “metaverse” one bit. Killing their game dev studios is an unfortunate collateral, but, again, if it means they go out of that business, GOOD.
