They switched their backend and you might need to clear your DNS cache in order for it to resolve properly

No no, they have proprietary methods of aggregating install data so they will know.

Depending on how long the backlash can stick around, I would expect to see it go down with a large exodus. In particular, if Microsoft gets upset about the impact it could have to gamepass. Unity does seem to be backtracking, but it really feels like they overextended on purpose to make the actual result feel less shitty

Yeah, I did read it. Doesn’t mean he didn’t know that there would be backlash

You think they just suddenly came up with this model? No shit they have to jump through hoops. That doesn’t stop them from doing it in advance of something like this

So he sells a bunch of shares right before the announcement that is likely going to tank their stock price

If we could only use some sort of… identifier to know when a game has been installed… like some kind of… serial number or key that is unique per copy…

The original announcement stated it was retroactive

Have never had a popup ad like this. Maybe because I have all of that stuff turned off?

Seems like an oddly specific reason to run Linux on your personal machines tho.

There are tons of other issues that are far more relevant and affect more users than simple windows store popup ads that most people don’t seem to get.

Yes, windows is heavier. Yes, it will use more power and resources. It’s not intended to conserve resources and run on every system known to humankind. We all know this. How it is a surprise to anyone is beyond me

These damn radical lefts! They are trying to take your beer away!

/s in case someone is actually that dumb

uBlock blocks things solely based on them being in a filter list. Privacy badger blocks form controls and html elements that can allow tracking. Those are different things.

They don’t block the same things every time, so it’s perfectly fine to have both.

Remember folks, it’s not okay to (jokingly) threaten violence against things like the NRA convention or the Vatican. Please save your violent threats for judges and jury members of your favorite criminally-charged politicians. Thank you.

Billet estimated the cost of the prototype to be $800. They never sent them a product.

Linus said “they agreed on compensation” and yet billet has stated they never responded to his offer, that he sent literal hours after GN posted the main video. Linus lied here. He can say he is compensating them all he wants, but there has not been any agreement made between the parties involved. They didn’t want payment, they wanted their fucking prototype back.

It’s not a water block that costs $800 though. It’s a prototype water block that they estimated the cost of producing to be around $800 given R&D, labor, materials, etc.

It was never meant to be a production ready product, and it should never have been treated as such.

The issue with the auction is due to the fact that they sent Billet numerous emails claiming to have prepared it to be shipped back, including one in which they said they would send tracking info shortly. They didn’t know it was being auctioned off until afterward. And Linus didn’t contact them about compensation until 3 hours after GNs video went live.

These are facts, backed by actual evidence which you can see for yourself in GNs latest HW news.

No, I use 7zip and so should they

What a giant stain

For sure.

E2E should never be broken by the 3rd party enabling the communication.

That would defeat the purpose
