yeah, weird phrasing. I mean, they have horrifying shipping times, but I never thought of them as gatekeepers.

I really hope this wasn’t some guy’s pet project that accidentally got news coverage. I want to order one!
The “we know better than you” attitude Microsoft has. They’ve very slowly removed more and more power user functionality. Almost every customization has to be hacked in with a group policy or registry edit now, or by outright replacing explorer.exe
and now look. They’ve got unrelated people online recommending a person doesn’t buy from them because it’ll be a poor experience. Is being detached from reality a requirement for upper management?
Last I heard, Capcom was retroactively adding DRM to their games which could severely impact compatibility. I don’t get why Mega Man 2 would need to be protected with spyware, but that’s a big corp for you. So yeah, I’d say Capcom games might qualify.
I hate the fact that if you want to change the case on a file in windows, you can’t just replace the offending letter. You have to change the name completely, then change it back with the correct casing. Then Windows will finally keep it.
I always made the mistake of starting to edit videos, finish up, then looking up the video fps and matching the project type before output. Immediate crash.
Both Battle Network Legacy Collection and Mega Man X DiVE were released last year though?
This is actually a question I’d like some opinions on!
I have a ton of headless servers running Debian that I just replace the sources.list for an upgrade. I imagine things are much more complicated when switches like X11 to Wayland happen, so all desktop environments get a wipe/install instead… But maybe I’m just making a lot of work for myself doing that!
Any of them compatible with Winamp plugins? Because that’s my reason for sticking to the past.
It’s been too many years since I’ve dabbled in code licensing so I’m a bit in the dark as to what this implies, but if this results in a Linux fork that’s capable of running Winamp plugins…
I’m guessing ease of installation/use.
Two of the best call centers I’ve ever worked with would be Google Fiber and Intel. Both of which are probably terrible now.
(2015) Google Fiber actually had people who understood networking, understood my personal setup, and understood what tests I had already performed to diagnose that my issue with their equipment. No faffing about with a script, I gave them my test results and got an appointment for a replacement line in like, 15 minutes, and an immediate credit on the account.
(2009) Back when Intel made rock-solid vanilla motherboards I did a dumb and accidentally disabled legacy USB on my board, which meant that I couldn’t press F2/DEL to get back into BIOS. I called Intel, gave them the troubleshooting steps I already ran (including jumper BIOS reset), and the call center forwarded me to the engineer who designed the motherboard. He whipped up and sent a bootable CD-ROM image to update the BIOS back to default and then updated all future revisions to avoid my issue.
I wish every call center was that good.
I’ve noticed more and more are just hanging up on you now.
I just wish it had a better name. Anything You just makes my brain feel like it hiccup’d trying to reread the sentence parsing it a second time as a name.
I’m curious, the current flash drive you are using… does it allow paging files? I would figure flash media would be marked portable to the OS and not allow page files to be used.
What? I didn’t have to subscribe to anything. Are you not choosing Open-Meteo?
I guess I’ll keep this in the back of my mind, but I already migrated over to QuickWeather when Geometric Weather went unsupported. It stinks that I can’t swipe between locations anymore, but the built-in radar and higher information density outweigh switching back for me.
I still remember the outrage when they announced 2004 wasn’t a free upgrade for 2003 purchasers. Stores did their best to mitigate that, but all my friends were peeved and kept to UT99 because of it.
Youtube Trailer says FPGA.
… though the article says that SegaCD support will be from external hookup to the official SegaCD device. So I guess it’s just MD/32X. I was really hoping it might have the full suite.
