They did, and we're really up front about it being an opt-in thing, if I remember correctly. Might have started that easy with Microsoft, too. But they can't resist enshitifying.

Well, shit.

We lived in a house with a bunch of roommates when we got our dog, and at some point "fuck off" became "go lie down on your bed and get outta my space"... So now if "go lie down" isn't taking, then "fuck off" works...

Feels good to finally be part of the 1%

I wish android natively has a roll back option to un-update apps... But that would be too user-friendly, I suppose.

I can't understand why someone would want to do that. Maybe it's my help desk and IT upbringing, but for the few software tools and things I've made, if you chat me without filing a bug/issue on GitHub, I'm not gonna help you.

If you uninstall is there any guarantee that the kernel level anticheat gets removed, too, or are they in there forever?

IT professional here, can confirm, Linux is superior and my choice of os.

.... despite my work being mostly Windows Server.

Also: IT professionals usually have some experience and/or start out with Help Desk (hell), where you quickly learn what is and is not a good issue report.

I'm trying to figure out what to buy now because my TV from 20 years ago finally died. Can't find anything that's essentially a large monitor.

Why can't we just do it like the rest of the world where the IRS (or equivalent) does it and you just sign off on it being correct? They should already have all the data they need from corporate quarterly filings.

Hey so like, I made it through the character creator on Baldur's Gate 3 last night and I consider that an achievement

Man, I've had a feeling that LTT and LMG's content more generally has been less and less about consumers and more about selling things to people. I guess it's called "advertainment" - but it's just so intolerable now. I don't feel connected to, or like any of the content is relevant anymore to a regular person.

When your employees are complaining that they can't create the content to the standard they want to because of time, it really sounds like a management problem. One they Linus seems determined to ignore so that they can keep raking in big sponsorships and sales of their overpriced over hyped merch so they can buy ever bigger mansions.

The whole tone of the enterprise is off and the vibes are bad.
