It's pretty relevant to hosting providers, especially VPS providers. But if you have an AMD processor in your home PC / laptop, not really relevant to you.
I went with the open source one. Slightly more expensive, but had I wanted to I could have bought all the parts and assembled it myself, compiled the firmware, etc.
If a device relies on any kind of external service to initially set up or function thereafter, do not buy. Regardless of brand.
This is what I strive for. When I was looking for a wall charger for my EV I was shocked at how there was only one option that wasn't "cloud" based. And those aren't cheap.
In my opinion, that's not on Steam to support their client on a long past EOL operating system. Not withstanding the added development workload and costs, there is also significantly more risk associated with supporting an OS that isn't receiving security patches.
Not to mention the modder's example Windows fucking 98. Steam still supports Windows 7, which was released in 2009. Your 6 year old PC will be fine.
My puppy is 14 years old and this possibility terrifies me. I don't have enough PTO to cover the time I feel like I'll be broken. I'm sorry for your loss :(
This is the guy who got banned from Steam's social features for being unhinged, puts DRM in his mods, and will randomly blacklist people using said DRM? Yeah, no loss here.
If only he'd do the same thing to his online presence. What he needs is professional help before he does more damage.
My journey started with 1 server, then 4, then 5 (one functioning as a NAS), then 1 (just the NAS box), then I moved and decided to slim it down to a proper NAS and 1 mini PC/NUC clone. Now I'm up to two because the first was an Intel N105 which just isn't up for the challenges lol
I use myanonamouse. Had to back then, none of the public trackers were good. Sounds like they might be better now though. MaM is the only private tracker I'm on.
Useless fear mongering over the behavior of statistical models. No actual persistent memory unless we add it (and then then it isn't "memory"). They're driven only by their prompts, context, and training data.
I mean there was no party for his. Also only like 40 people. His soon to be wife convinced him to use the money he'd saved for the wedding on a down payment for a house.
My sister had a wedding at the start of June and it went surprisingly well. The only aspect they skimped on was not hiring a videographer, so I took that role. Despite having a job to do and being nearly rained out of a outdoor wedding, the stars aligned. It went well. I think it was definitely cathartic to me after the first immediate family wedding. My other sister had one in March but that was an elopement and it was miserable. Outdoor ceremony in 40 degree bone chilling weather.
Anything immediate family is pretty much competing for worst ranking, simply because of how much extra effort it is.
Out of 6 siblings, 3 have gotten married. Worst was the first, my brother. I was a groomsman - 1 out of 7, there a were 7 bridesmaids as well. A huge wedding party. Photos took -forever- and happened before the ceremony. It wasn't too hot, but another groomsman (my other brother) ended up fainting (locked knees). We recovered from that. Later on, about an hour into a hour and a half ceremony (ridiculously long speeches) another faints. We're all suffering because we're standing for the entire ceremony.
Then it's finally over, but like any good wedding they had to sacrifice on one aspect. - they hired catering from a friend of a friend, and the caterer's crew were a no show (apparently they didn't check the address when they agreed and when they checked and saw it was a 2 hour drive they just didn't show up). So we all stepped up to help.
There was other shit too but despite outwardly going well that wedding gave me trauma.
Best would be my close friend's wedding. Just a ceremony and photos. Indoors as well. Easy.
I disagree. The most governments can straight up kick you out of your home, so it seems to me the cosmic laws of the universe that govern whether a vampire has been invited in would recognize the warrant as an invitation by the judge into the home.
Keep in mind their claims about Android have been clearly refuted and their claims in general are dubious.

Given this, they're either dangerously ignorant or intentionally malicious.
