I often preorder games that I know are sure bets. I won’t preorder games that I’m not sure I’ll like or by a developer with a rocky reputation (Ubisoft, etc).

I love buying early access games. Many of the best games ever made spent a lengthy time in early access, and it was worth every penny. Some I’ve bought 2-3 times in early access on different platforms just to support the developers (Satisfactory, Factorio, Rimworld, Baldurs Gate 3). I just bought Satisfactory for the third time and it was worth it.

Right but what about it do you think is complex?

True, but with passkeys they’re never sent, by design.

Complex how exactly?

No. When you log into a website your password is sent to the server. A passkey is not.

Yeah like why do you assume that “lower class” minorities are doing this work?

As a former white delivery driver fuck you op lol

I hate buying from Amazon and avoid it as much as I can, but one thing I’ve noticed in the last 5-10 years is that brick and mortar stores seem to have given up completely. It is shocking how many times I’ve wanted to buy something, often very common, from popular brands, and I try and find a local store to buy it from only for that store to be out of stock or just not stock it at all. It feels to me like these stores are filled with “stuff” but none of the things I want to buy.

Many years ago it used to be very obvious when you were buying from Amazon vs 3rd party sellers. Today the only difference is a small bit of text that says “Shipped and sold by Amazon”. The fact that you can even get prime shipping on items from third party sellers makes it so that people often don’t realize.

Global aviation is generally more efficient than traveling by car is it not? Not accounting for the use of private planes.

It is not and as somebody who was patient with Civ VI and ultimately loved it after it was fleshed out, I don’t think it ever will be. The “play three different civs over the course of each game with a leader unrelated to any of them” thing they stole from humankind is not going away so if you’re not a fan of that you’re just going to have to skip this one.

Evolution 2 was pretty good. Much better than the first game.

Only if the site they’re visiting isn’t using HSTS, but it’s possible

As much as I dislike UniFi, it is true that there isn’t really a competitor in their tier of equipment. Upgrading would be a good choice, but if you end up choosing to stay with UniFi, I’d highly recommend the UCGs.

The UDR and UDM line are so horrifically poorly designed it’s frankly astonishing they ever left the drawing board. Not only is the shape unwieldy and awkward enough on its own, the thermals on those things are terrible. I used to wake up to no internet every few weeks because my UDM would overheat and would be unable to boot until you cooled it down. I learned to just stick it in the fridge for a bit to cool it down so it could boot again.

The UniFi UCG ultra and the Max are far better machines, capable of doing just as much if not more than the Pill shaped routers while staying cool and not sounding like a jet engine every time you send a text over wifi. The only thing you even lose is the integrated Access Point which sucks compared to the discrete ones anyway.

This will happen automatically if you buy enough and start experiencing their true hardware failure rate lol.

Ngl that is a stupid ass name lol

You can definitely turn Apple Intelligence off

A separate box with apps that work better and just use the one remote.

Yeah “changing”, sure. But “evolving” implies things are changing for the ”better”, which they are not.

I’ve got plenty for the both of us lol
