You’re using teams. Modern teams is built on Skype, which is why it’s shit.

Got it on GamePass yesterday. It runs like a dog, and that’s on a 10-700k with 64GB ram, 3070 and a Sabrent Rocket 4 nvme. Even dropping to 1080 and low still hovers around 30 - 40fps with random dropouts to <10fps in ‘complex’ areas. Given this system can run God of War at 4K Ultra (With DLSS Balanced) at 30fps, or Black Myth: Wukong at High at 50 - 60fps, I’m going to say it’s not the system at fault…

Wait for a few patches, the performance is currently not up to spec. Which is sad, because the introduction got me super hooked and I want to play more.

In one sentence, you say, “just use a password manager”, on the next, “not really an improvement if you need extra software”. I’m not sure what argument you’re having, but neither one really addresses what this article is about.

This keeps the passkeys in the password manager (I use dashlane, it rocks, and synchronises the passkeys just like the passwords), but this new protocol allows you to change and export the passkeys to other password managers, preventing vendor lock in and allowing for transfer to another password manager.

Hope this clarifies things! And everyone should use a password manager of some kind; we should expect whatever site we’re using to be hacked, and the only way to be safe is to have a unique password per site.

It was a term coined to describe the step-by-step process modern tech platforms go through:

1. be good, get customers, grow
2. get large enough to corner market, concentrate on profits
3. get large enough to move to politicise their approach, drive out competition through aggressive tactics, and lock in consumers
4. drive more profit through dark patterns and ensure nobody wins but the stakeholders

It’s specifically that, and there wasn’t a word that described that process previously, as it’s only something that’s possible in a modern, “web scale” worldwide platform.

Crepuscular. Related to twilight, dimness, the golden hour.

I’m guessing Ford and Slartibartfast will try and get in to this floating party, and it’ll hit Arthur in the small of the back somehow :D

I like this picture. The blur, the background bokeh, it’s just… Nice.

Thanks for posting, you’ve a nice cat.

No worries… It’s a pretty obscure math joke anyway :⁠-⁠P

Maths - sin, tan and cos are all factors of the rotation of a circle, hence pi being on there. I’m not a mathematician, I just watch standup maths and can recommend his book, “love triangle” to explain this sort of stuff.

Woah, cool. Didn’t know there was a first party portable.

The Osborne? A fantastic machine for the time…

2 albums, so start with the first one, named Brothers of Metal. Emblas Saga picks up from there.

They’re very fun Norse themed songs.

They recently toured with gloryhammer and beast in black… And I wish I’d seen it live :⁠-⁠D

Really? Come to the C# side… We have all those, and concise code too.

Have you listened to any Brothers of Metal?

And… Wine stands for Wine Is Not an Emulator, too.

Yeah, exactly. If I had funds, I’d be switching to a heat pump.

How about saying that a normal air con unit, with a few extra valves, can heat as well as cool - in other words, if you’ve got Aircon, you’ve got a full heat pump, just without a pipe to do the heating bit. The energy you’re spending cooling your house could also be heating your water… For free.

Well, now you’ve called it out, I’ve got to updeet it.

That’s a bit stretched…

Ah, cool… Haven’t played that one myself, I’ll add it to the list once I’m finished with Hogwarts and kingdom hearts
