  • Not all of Bay's movies are complete cash grabs, like his recent (ish) movie Ambulance.

  • Supreme Court tosses out claim Biden administration coerced social media companies to remove content
  • But when conservatives are in power it suddenly is a non-issue even leftwing voices get censored.

  • What Netflix has learned from its push into video games
  • Yes. Learn what makes them more money. The limited password sharing crackdown world, so they rolled it out worldwide, for example.

  • Steam announces game recording beta.
  • But how does the EGS exist?

    Because they are able to subsidize it with investor as well as Fortnite money. I doubt it's turned a profit for them.

    Wouldn't exactly call that "viable competition"

  • What Would You Like To See In Upcoming Updates
  • That wouldn't work on article images, as those link to the article.

    I don't know if Sync ever had it, but Joey for Reddit allowed me to zoom into article images by holding down on them and then pinching with my other fingers. A bit awkward, but welcome nonetheless.

  • My Windows Computer Just Doesn't Feel Like Mine Anymore
  • How is that ironic?

    You didn't purchase a "HowToGeek" licence, I imagine. Nor was one included with your PC.

  • Microsoft insiders worry the company has become just 'IT for OpenAI'
  • Microsoft is having its IBM moment

  • I can sorta see that. Beth, Bethy, Buffy

  • Busiest transit hub in U.S. rocked by delays as infrastructure breakdowns hit during heat wave
  • I believe the issue moreso is the lack of (funding for) maintenance.

    A heatwave like this will exacerbate smaller issues, which could've been prevented.

  • Minecraft for PlayStation 5
  • Isn't the PS4 version also bedrock?

    Which would mean they're updating/optimising bedrock for the PS5

  • Networking rule
  • TCP and UDP are accurate as well.

    For one you make sure you get every last droplet, the other turns on the hose and you take what you can get.

  • That's a very big QR code for a not very long link, what does it redirect through?

    Edit: seems they used a high redundancy (error correction) for their QR code. Normally I get suspicious of large codes like this, but it seems whoever made this wasn't taking any chances the message wouldn't come through.

    The percentages refer to how much of the code may be obscured/distorted whilst remaining machine-readable

  • Does anyone else sneeze from cold air/mint?

    I always get people telling me to look up at the light to sneeze, which I know is a phenomenon but I never hear anyone talk about mint.

    Something about fresh air just tickles my nose and makes me sneeze. It's especially great when I have a mouthful of minty toothpaste.

    Or perhaps I'm just allergic to going outside.
