Quoting: PublicNuisanceSo the companies that screw me over with Intel ME and AMD PSP are joining forces ? Consider me wanting to get off X86 to RiscV or Power9 even more than before.

yes it is popular to scare people that have no clue on how things work that these are somehow secret spy things when they in reality are nothing but managing devices for enterprise IT departments (just like how we in the server space have full on BMC cards instead).

Quoting: StellaI don't use Razer personally because I'm not convinced of the quality of their products. But this does seem really nice, wish there was something similar for Logitech and Asus

Its not very nice. openrazer only supports RGB stuff, DPI settings, Polling rate and some other fluff, but the main feature is missing. Custom keybinds, layers etc.

I own a razer basilisk v2, its decent mouse, but build quality isn't the greatest, the rubber on it started to fade quite fast and scrollbar rubber grip is sometimes slipping a bit, but i can at least adjust the resistance of the scrollwheel and mouse is quite comfortable in hand.

Ah, I see. That kind of sucks. Do Razer peripherals have onboard memory at least? My logitech mouse has this, I can configure it on LGHUB and it will persist on Linux devices. If it didn't have this the mouse would be much less usable

Cannot say that they all do, but the DeathAdder v3 PRO that I replaced my Logitech G703 with does. It also have much higher build quality than the Logitech one where the mouse wheel started to act weird and I found it to be a common problem.

Quoting: iodI wonder if Wine will ever recognize the correct locale for non-english apps.. People keep telling me it's not Wine's job to do so but Windows does it somehow no problem.

Also waiting for generally better Wayland support because old XWayland games set the fullscreen resolution incorrectly.

I wonder if this can be locale specific, aka in that there is a problem with some locales, because when running applications in Wine apps picks up that my Linux is configured in Swedish with zero issues (or I'm mistaken about what the issue is).

Quoting: bonkmaykrThey will decriminalize child pornography like a bunch of sick fucks (yes, the German government seriously got away with that)

They haven't. What they have done is gone back to the same minimum sentencing for distribution as they had before June 2021 when they increased it (and this is due to them having seen negative consequences of that increase).

If you do that we will send you Justin Bieber!

I'm starting to see the possibilities here. Can we throw in Pierre Poilievre?

I can prepare a place at that bottom of the Baltic Sea for him, IF as payment we would get Skinny Puppy and Front Line Asembly.

Quoting: Mountain ManSo no Half-Life 3.

Why not? They can work on multiple games at the same time. Remember the Orange Box?

There were rumors that Valve was working on a new game. Everybody was hoping it was Half-Life 3, but apparently it was this instead.

No the rumor was that they besides Deadlock also was working on something that internally was refereed to as Project White Sands. And since that is the name of a park in New Mexico where Black Mesa was...

Quoting: Klaas

Quoting: F.UltraIn essence I'm still kinda pissed that they killed him off

I think that all three endings of The Following are bad, since they all destroy everything that you've worked for in the base game. I'm not sure what they were thinking, since this is clearly the worst thing that they could have done. Making the player feel that everything that happened before was pointless.

The game's writing is generally confused and rather bad which isn't that surprising when you read about the development process.

Kyle is weird – who would burn important medicine because a (crazy) person on the outside gives that order via radio!?

Kadir Suleiman is so over the top that he's basically a psychopathic parody of a parody of a psychopath. He kills his minions for fun although it is obvious that he will never be able to get replacements, which is unbelievably stupid even for someone that does not have any empathy.

yes that initial "burn the medicine" confused me as well. Why bother when it is via radio and you not only know that you are going to need it but also can use it as a viable resource to trade inside the quarantine zone.

*goes back to sleep*

agreed, but it is where all the money is right now so financially it is a perfect move. But some day this fad will die out.

Quoting: F.UltraBut Kyle died at the end of The Following no matter which choice you did, but now he have just been caged for 10 years?

The non-nuke ending had him turned (started turning) into a zombie/volatile and escape Harran, so I guess that's what they built upon.

Him turning zombie is him dying IMHO.

Apparently you can be dead but still a playable character. ;-)

Well I must have misunderstood what they meant then, I though that you played him as a human. In essence I'm still kinda pissed that they killed him off, was a way more interesting character than e.g Aiden.
