Which is sad, because the 3070 and 2070 absolutely traded blows with the previous flagships.

The "4070" might've also had a chance if they hadn't fk'ed around with the naming on most cards below the 4080.

Luckily I realized that I could Cloudflare-tunnel my Portainer UI out to a long random-nonsense subdomain name.

That allowed me to fix it (and then immediately kill the tunnel -- not a fan of exposing Portainer to the internet).

So brave.

That would seem to be price fixing by its very definition. (EDIT: Note that I'm not making any judgment on this class action. The reality of pricing on IsThereAnyDeal would suggest that there is no such rule that prices can't be lower outside of Steam.)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_fixing

manufacturers and retailers may conspire to sell at a common "retail" price; set a common minimum sales price, where sellers agree not to discount the sales price below the agreed-to minimum price

And the question is irrelevant. Other companies can still benefit from external price fixing.

ITAD only lists retailers that are fully legit. No grey market.

Are we sure about that? Kinda just looks like it's a mostly-empty community. (4 posts in the last 15 days, then nothing until 9 months ago)

Also, this comment is getting copypasta'd onto multiple different unrelated suggestions.

You should be backing up any personal data you don't want to lose to an offsite location? All I know is that if I did that, alone, on Comcast's 1.2TB data cap, I'd be cooked.

Not to mention that individual games are commonly over 100GB these days, and have frequent patches. If you work from home, add that in. If you watch any sort of TV, that's most likely streamed, now, too.

Sure, there was a time when I was always under the 1.2TB of my old Xfinity plan. That time has passed. Luckily, the T-Mobile internet I use now doesn't have a cap.

I mean, why give GabeN our email addresses then?

You see, there's the thing. Sony is not requiring any sort of launcher. It's an account.

"But mah privacy!"

Again, no launcher. What exactly are they going to track? That you're playing their game?

You really think GTA6 won't have a single player component? And that it won't require a Rockstar account/launcher?

They're still around. It's just very different since COVID happened. And I'm old.
