You don’t need iTunes to manage an iPod. There are tons of alternative apps, as well as plugins for music players like foobar2000 and Winamp.
iPods are still great. You can even replace their hard drives with modern flash storage and they work. It’s actually really impressive, i built a 256GB iPod Mini and iTunes has no problem with it. For the Mini, any compact flash card works as a drop-in replacement for the hard drive. Other models require a cheap adapter.
A website isn’t a common carrier, you cannot argue that a website isn’t allowed to control who they serve their content to. An ISP is a common carrier because they simply act as a dumb pipe between the provider (websites) and the consumer.
Cloudflare is a tool websites use to exercise that right, necessitated by the ever rising prevalence of bots and DDoS attacks. Your proposed definition of net neutrality would destroy anyone’s ability to deal with these threats.
Can you at least provide examples of legitimate users who are hindered by the use of Cloudflare?
Given that the FBI’s targets probably don’t type in Chinese or other logographic languages very often i doubt they care.
New Vegas is the best of the modern Fallout games, but toxic elements in its fan base are making me enjoy the game less and less each year. We should stop giving them the time of day.
The show is great, and these people are just fishing for nonsense to feed their persecution complex.
that is why spotify is a scam. it may be a good deal for you, the consumer, but it has made it even harder for artists to make money off their work.
the system wasn’t as magic as they made it out to be. turns out it was powered by a team of 1,000 people reviewing camera footage in India.
this is probably why they’re killing it.
My problem is that i can’t seem to get a hang of the combat, at all. Taking down even some medium sized dinobots feels like a slog, 20 minutes of me breaking line of sight, taking a pot shot at its weak point, and somehow missing, rinse and repeat. I feel the game either didn’t do a good job teaching me how to deal with them, or I’m just playing it wrong and don’t know better.
I’ve started the game three times and each time I get about 6 hours in before I get bored.
The elongated muskrat is learning first hand how the Nazi Bar Problem works
This is the same Microsoft that has consistently delivered a better Office suite (including Outlook) on macOS than Windows for almost 20 years now. It’s like they are afraid of their own technology or something.
It’s not exactly hard for me to make “backups” of most games I can download, as the DRM is usually cracked within weeks or months of release.
A single player game that is exclusive to streaming would just be gone forever the instant it gets delisted.
you can game on high end equipment without buying it.
This is how they get you to give up ownership of your games. I’m fine with it as an option, but I fear that one day publishers will decide it should be the only option.
This is about GeForce Now, their streaming service.
I got mine a few months into the pandemic for the same reason.
I have a Secretlab chair that I like. Which model is right for you depends on your size. I paid about $500 for mine. They often have $100 off coupons.
I often see some pretty comfortable chairs at Costco for < $300, if you live near one. The savings on the chair alone would more than cover the cost of a 1 year membership.
Tacking a license to the end of a comment posted to just about any website does not actually change how the sites content is licensed.
Analog telephony was still built on a complex automated network. Those rooms full of operators manually connecting callers by plugging in physical wires haven’t been a thing for 70 years. They even started going digital in the ‘60s.
Industry experience in networking
Hey man, I’m just speaking from 15 years of industry experience. Like I said, if you’re happy with the performance, that’s great. But I can objectively measure (and feel) the difference, so don’t go trying to tell me my personal experience is somehow invalid. People should know that there is, in fact, a difference. You’re not even addressing what I said about the latency and just getting hung up on packet loss.
Also my internet is not expensive. My city has a municipal fiber network, and I only pay about $50/mo for symmetrical gigabit service. I don’t need to “vindicate” myself here. I don’t think people should have to settle for wireless internet to get away from Comcast when fiber is a faster option without compromises.
