I just cleaned up my downloads so I no longer have it, but a couple weeks ago it was a copy of Maid: The Role-Playing Game

“We’re not liberal or conservative, we’re a secret third thing!(conservative)”

This is the correct answer. MFA should be enforced for literally every account you have, and the method should be app-based or a hardware token.

It turns out that people en masse are lazy and will use the same simple password for all their accounts and then wonder how they got hacked. People in tech for the past 30 years or so struggled with the difference between theory and practice when it came to user psychology, and I am happy that we are finally starting to realize the user psychology aspect and just force them to be secure.

I have played through many Sierra games, although I was always more partial to the LucasArts adventure games. I feel like they had better writing, and the idea that there was no failure state meant that you didn’t end up in unwinnable situations.

I didn’t know about the staff situation there though, that’s super interesting. I just assumed that they had a small number of teams working on each title that each worked under the Williams’

I used to play a ton of games throughout my teenage years but fell off in my 20s. Now in my late 30s I still keep up with gaming news and discussion, but I rarely actually play through games anymore. I go through maybe one a year.

You’re right that the discussion has changed, and that’s due to a number of factors. Mostly, new games are pretty configurable and will run on pretty much any modern hardware. Long gone are the days where you simply couldn’t play something unless you ponied up for a Voodoo 2. Add to that, that PC hardware is a lot more standard now. Gaming enthusiasts dont need to learn a bunch of competing hardware standards to keep up anymore.

And the other side is that with the introduction of microtransactions, keeping an eye on how companies are trying to monetize games is important. AAA games these days have Hollywood movie budgets and if they’re not profitable, then hundreds of people are out of a job. Looking back, it’s pretty amazing what 10-15 people could accomplish with a fraction of the budget and time that modern developers get(indie games notwithstanding)

That would require them to have the ability to perceive consequences in the future.

These are the type of people that get a notoriously unstable job making 6 figures on a high school education and immediately lease a brand new $80K truck and start a coke habit because they can currently afford it.

I don’t have a million dollars so I cant afford Dijon ketchup :(

It was a tragic day when I grew up and could no longer see why kids love the taste of Cinnamon Toast Crunch

This is my read too. Cut someone out of your life for their shitty actions, not their shitty opinions.

By mixing acid in the soap, you’ll neutralize both and neither will be effective anymore!

I know you’re being blithe, but I’d question any galactic federation representative that couldn’t comprehend that the slab of glass just happens to be the most efficient method of sharing information we as a species ever devised.

I haven’t tried to use hamachi in years so I’m not sure about a solution to your problem. However, I can strongly recommend Zerotier as a potential alternative

“Oh, I have an opinion about this.”

“Wait, my opinion has already been covered across a few other comments. No one will care about another echo in the chamber, I’ll delete that and just upvote those other comments and move on”

Total shot in the dark knowing basically nothing about the situation, but if your house is over 10 years old and you also have cable internet, you might have a MoCA filter somewhere along the coax line(I’ve seen them installed outside too)

They were installed all over the place to prevent interference between cable TV and cable Internet, but sometimes they cause problems getting a stable internet connection

I often explain it as though they’re asking an airplane mechanic to fix their Honda Civic. The principals are the same(fuel goes in, rotation comes out) but the machines are so different that doesn’t help much from a practical standpoint

I do the same thing but leverage networking instead of Linux.

“Sorry, I dont actually know much about computers, but let me know if you want advice about port trunking or configuring a VLAN”

Im especially fond of PearsAndGrayWitch

Tetris Attack and all of the other Panel de Pon-likes. They are exactly what I want from a versus puzzle game

Its a double-edged sword. There is a ton of use in something like “help me display the data in this excel workbook for a presentation” but the tradeoff is that data is now indexed in the recall database along with everything else you do.

Ultimately, using recall is a security concern that massively outweighs any benefits it offers, but to say it offers no benefit at all is incorrect.

I want to play a wizard/barbarian that treats rage like another, different spell
