Uhhh… he literally moderated the r/SwitchPirates subreddit and had ties to multiple pirate shops that distributed the pirated games.
I don’t support Nintendo’s lawsuits, but people are making it sound like they’re going after some random Joe who just mentioned pirating games in a comment or two. Unless you’re moderating one of the biggest Nintendo pirating communities or working to distribute pirated games, AND are really bad with op-sec, you’re probably fine.
Personally I just use an ad blocker
Added context for anyone who isn’t aware, Schwarzenegger was the Republican governor of California from 2003 to 2011.
Personally, I would not recommend diving into Linux headfirst by installing it as your only operating system. If you can afford an additional small drive (128GB should be plenty), I would suggest buying one and installing something like Linux Mint on that, while putting Windows on your main drive.
That way, you can switch between them whenever you want to (when you turn on your computer, you can just use a menu to choose which drive to boot to), and get somewhat familiar with Linux before deciding if it’s worth your time to really dive in.
(There’s a way to put both operating systems on the same drive, but it’s really easy for something to go wrong and end up with one of the operating systems inaccessible. Since you’re inexperienced, I would avoid going that route for the time being, and just keep both on separate drives.)
No, you should not “generalize” when those generalizations are negative and targeted at a specific group of people. That’s called stereotyping and is widely considered a bad thing.
That’s a pretty sexist outlook. I don’t think the image makes an entire 51% of the population angry. And I think people like Jeff Bezos show that not all men require “so little to be happy”. It’s almost like genders are not hive-minds, and generalizing anything that broadly is only going to result in looking like a boomer who complains about how terrible their spouse is.
I know it’s anecdotal, but my younger sister would go off-the-walls bonkers any time she had Red 40 as a kid. Which sucked, because I swear everything has red 40 in it, even stuff like white vanilla frosting. We would have to buy the “all natural” versions of a lot of stuff, which can get really pricey.
Point being, if there’s actual research corroborating the hyperactivity, then I completely support banning artificial dyes in schools. It will likely make the price of natural food dyes come down, or make dyes be excluded from foods in the first place, which is fine because kids don’t need neon colored lunches.
That’s fair, although I think that depends a lot on the type of car you drive. There’s an option to tell Maps what type of car you drive (electric, hybrid, or gas), which will change the results, because cars with regenerative breaking often get better “city” milage than “highway” milage.
It also probably depends on factors like how aerodynamic your vehicle is, because it makes a huge difference above ~50mph (air resistance/drag increases exponentially with speed)
It does indicate the “fuel efficient” route pretty clearly though, and always gives multiple other options including the quickest one that isn’t as efficient. If this is what’s causing the issue, OP just needs to look closer at what’s on their screen.
I’ve been out of the game for a few years, who’s TG?
They totally might have figured something out. Hell, they could have gotten a hold of some of Sony’s original disc-pressing hardware to reproduce the copy protection. It really is the Wild West when it comes to these retailers
Even then, anyone can use inspect element to make it look like it says whatever you want.
Funny enough, a number of years ago a giant 4chan archive surfaced which included a lot of the very first SCP posts that had been lost. It actually confirmed that 173 was posted after Blink aired, meaning it was almost certainly inspired by the episode. Not that it makes the SCP worse, but it’s some interesting lore.
Perhaps, but Nintendo also seems happy to let people forget that the Wii U ever existed. Also, they seem to not care as much about non-piracy/CFW releated hardware mods- take the 3DS capture card as an example, AFAIK it was never targeted by Nintendo since it very clearly was not meant to facilitate piracy.
They don’t really need to associate it with a specific person (although I’m sure they’d love to)- they can get plenty of data just within the context of what a single person buys in their store.
The funny thing is that standard human operating temperature is much closer to the coldest you can get than to the hottest. Absolute zero, when all thermal motion stops and it’s literally impossible to get any colder by definition, is only -273.15°C. We can reach it fairly easily, and we know that weird stuff does happen at low temperatures such as Bose-Einstein Condensates, but the universe really can’t cool a few orders of magnitude- there isn’t that much more cooling for it to do.
I highly doubt it. The NES has been completely reverse engineered for decades, there really isn’t any reason to use proprietary code for an emulator for it.
Basically the scheme from Office Space
Pretty much every food regulatory agency in the world has deemed aspartame safe. There were some worrying studies all the way back in the '70’s, but those were almost certainly bogus due to conflicts of interest with the sugar industry. It’s just as safe as MSG, which I personally believe people get so worked up over just because it has a “scary-sounding” chemical name.
It sounds like they literally can’t refund people because the company completely ran out of money and is gonna be liquidated. Sucky situation for all parties involved.
