There is a nearly zero percent chance that the game developers are also cloud experts

Well yeah, that's why you would put some cloud experts on the project besides the game devs if you're doing things like this. It's not just game developers working on the game.

Doesn't even have to be people feom the Azure team. Microsoft has plenty of resources to teach someone to be a cloud expert in other branches, they even offer certifications for outside people, surely they can manage a few of their own.

Are you downloading from several mirrors at the same time? In that case it could be faster because the individual mirrors have a lower bandwidth than you have.

Wonder if google would do something like this, but I would guess they download everything from the same server local to you, so I don't think it should have any effect really.

I think they mean glasses lenses vs contact lenses.

This is not true. I've seen a lot of people from my own country and others claim the same thing, but so far every time I've looked it up for countries it turned out to not be true.

You just have to be clear about which payment methods you accept upfront.

According to this service, that domain never had any subdomains, so looks like there's just nothing there at the moment.

Not sure how reliable it is, but it did correctly identify all of my own subdomains for a website that no one ever goes to.

But for some reason Firefox doesn't do this properly, so it offers to or just outright restores all my pages on startup. I've never been able to make it stop doing that.

This is already a thing, on my pixel at least. There's a "file as" input if I expand all fields of a contact.

Also, Android shows a notification when you install an app remotely. So you'd instantly know something's up anyway.

I think installing an extension like Google search fixer, or just a generic user agent switcher, should fix that last issue at least.

That is also a form of basic auth, you still pass the credentials like "username:password", optionally base64 encoded but I don't believe that's required.

Edit: actually, after looking into it a bit more, it seems like passing credentials in the url will actually cause the browser to send it as an authorization header instead. So in essence it's doing the same thing.

Ah the beta might im not sure, but it's definitely not in the stable release yet.

Yeah most TV's I've seen either have a PC setting, or have a game mode that just turns everything off.
