Close, but it was “don’t be evil”.

Not surprising when you look at how much they’ve increased their annual park subscription.

And to be honest, I can’t blame them when people keep buying it and they’re still keeping the parks full. I wouldn’t hesitate that they are having a lot of subscribers too and hardly anyone leaves when they increase the price.

Such a shame for the rest of us that don’t want to put up with these price hikes.

Think of all the money Nintendo lost over people playing that custom content that was paying homage to their beloved titles! Man, sure glad Nintendo scared them into taking those down.

I have a Chromebook and it’s ridiculous how difficult they made it to install another OS.

I eventually did, but I needed to get something to flash a third party boatloader and at first I was told my laptop was not supported.

But getting an actual Linux distro has been so much better than ChomeOS.

This whole rapey lingo needs to fucking die already.

No means no, corporations. Not “maybe later”, not “remind me later”…it’s a yes or a no.

Every company does it now and I’m sick to death of it. Even for the free trials like YouTube Premium. I don’t want your fucking shit. Leave me alone.

Exactly what Nintendo was hoping for. I can’t blame the developers, though. But this sucks.

Old ass game systems where it’s practically impossible or expensive to get the physical games anymore, let alone the console, with some titles locked to those systems, never to be enjoyed again except through emulation.

As someone who works in corporate IT and dabbles in the security side too: don’t.

People do it and I don’t understand why. Use your personal cell phone or whatever else.

We have logs of everything that goes on that device and we could do more if we so desired. So treat every corporate device as a spy on everything that goes on in it.

We view logs only when incidents happen and they do and it never looks good on the employee who was doing X. I get people who browse Snapchat and YouTube off hours and then click an ad and invite crap into the device and now we see everything you were doing after hours when we do the investigation into the incident. But we do also get alerts about other things, so you never know when someone will pull in something.

And things that seem innocent to you may not to your corporate employer or just those technicians like myself who have access to the logs and could use it against you.

Moral: don’t do anything but work things on company devices.

Ask it what happened on June 4, 1989

That seems so backwards. Computers almost are always better at doing math than humans, so how is that proving the visitor is a human??

Competition always is good to have! Glad to see someone finally adopting this awesome OS. It’ll be interesting to see if they implement any new features that are specific to their device.

Dual USB type C is freaking sweet to see!!! More handheld PCs need that.

I hope they ditch Windows and use SteamOS or any Linux variant at this point.

The Steam Deck’s OS is one of its best features and Windows is not viable for handheld devices.

And what’s better is that it’s free! There is no reason to slap on an extra $100 to pass onto the consumer because you had to pay some corporation a license for using their OS, giving them more market share they don’t deserve.

One of the best and most needed features of a handheld has to be the standby feature too. The ability to “lock” the device mid-gameplay and come back to it is not only good but necessary. Windows doesn’t have anything like this but SteamOS on the Deck does!

And if they want to one-up the Deck, PLEASE give us more than one USB port. Even if it is USB Type C and a USB A port, that’s better than one port that has to be shared for charging and everything else.

I bought an album off iTunes last year in September. I made the mistake of joining Apple Music and it completely fucked my offline music library. So I had to revert to a backup prior to September.

Went back to download that album and was told I couldn’t because it’s no longer available in my region.

It’s okay to buy it but you can somehow lose access to it because rights expired that had no bearing on you.

It’s fucking stupid and they wonder why people pirate when they pull shit like this.
