When you put a clown on the throne, you get the entire circus. Simple as.

We can fire so many people!

The difference here is that PC as a platform doesn’t get excluded just because it was built in a previous generation. And if it does get excluded for some technical reason (e.g. because the CPU is missing an instruction set), you can just upgrade the part that’s causing the incompatibility (even from a secondary market) instead of buying an entire new PC.

For context: Humble Bundle was acquired by IGN in 2017 and the founders are no longer involved.

And Warframe.

Digital Extremes should be the industry’s example of how a live service game should be managed. It’s butthole-clenching to think that they were almost bought by Sony a few years ago.

Not directly. UEFI itself only supports mounting a minimal set of filesystems. That’s why your EFI system partitiion needs to be FAT32, for example, and why the kernel and initial ramdisk are also located there. UEFI mounts the ESP and executes the bootloader, which then loads the kernel (located at ESP/vmlinuz-linux on Arch) and initial ramdisk (ESP/initramfs-linux.img) into memory. The initial ramdisk is a compressed image of an early root filesystem that contains the tools and drivers necessary to boot the full system, including the filesystem drivers for ext4/btrfs/whatever.

You could build an EFI program that natively supports different filesystems, though.

Fortunately Windows is at least protected from gaining elevated privileges since it still has to go through UAC. I hope nobody discovers some vulnerability called something like “desktop2shell”.

Because Daddy Sony says you have to buy one to play PS6 titles. No technical reasons other than those artificially imposed by the company.

The surfaces facing the wheel are covered with a thick hydrophobic fabric. Water and mud don’t tend to stick to it, and even grime is easily wiped off.

The label says Wozinsky, but the material feels like pure Chinesium. You can probably find the same item under a dozen brand names.

The last time they got into it, Cpl Punishment had to get involved.

My best purchase of the year was a backpack that can hang off my bicycle’s cargo rack. It adds +20 inventory slots, but without the carry weight penalty.

Yes, it was a stroke of genius to label their mediocre confectionery as “coffee”, although it can lead to near fatalities when someone who’s only ever had Starbucks encounters real coffee for the first time.

Still, my point stands. That website is like 20% useful content, 40% flair, and 40% wasted space.

That website is atrocious. It’s the web design equivalent of shoving five kilograms of sugar and whipped cream in a cup of coffee.

Did they really lose both chambers?

The highest address of a subnet is the broadcast address. You can’t assign it to a host.

“Brother, why did you nail the creature to the ceiling?”
“Lest the servitors eat it.”

I might be able to snag that same model with an i5-6500 for around 60€. Could you tell me more about your experience with it? In particular, how are the thermals and the power consumption, can it handle 1Gb/s on both ethernet ports, and have you encountered any compatibility issues with OPNsense?

One is Gros Michel, the other is Cavendish.
