I bought a laptop that came with a broken charger, I could easily test it myself as a friend also had an HP laptop with the same brick (this was before the days of USB C).
I tried to make a warranty claim and they wanted me to send the laptop too and wipe the HDD, the RMA process would take weeks on top of that.
I ended up buying a 3rd party charger, I’m sure their RMA process is overly long and convoluted to deter people from making warranty claims
NZ is usually used as a Guinea pig by tech companies, small population, English speaking, etc.
However I think it might be that the Alll Blacks might face off the Springboks in the Rugby World Cup Final and Elon wants to minimise the shitposting on Twitter. /s
I am a light user so I just stayed on version 3.0.2
It works for my use case as it is and the day it doesn’t, I’ll look for whatever fork is most popular
A friend works for a large-ish company that makes a product on Unity (not a game tho) and he just told me they were moving to Godot ASAP
they do, my sister just bought one
you need to login to origin at least once. I played it with my partner on the deck connected to the telly using a PS4 and a Switch Pro controller. As mentioned above, I had to lower the settings too
My previous job referred to ex employees as traitors or betrayers
Also, the last mile issue is very real and needs to be solved.

I dug a bit into it and there’s obvious astroturfing going on by the creator. There’s some crypto bullshit attached to it.
VHS won over Betamax. This one was over porn despite Beta being technically superior.
DVD won over VCD. This one was over copy protection since VCD were trivial to decrypt and copy at the time.
IHateMoney.org is a nice self hosted FOSS option, joining groups and organising users is dead easy, but the iOS app sucks.
I personally prefer SettleUp despite it being closed source, I find its functionality a lot better than Splitwise
I recently used IRC to download some obscure early 2000s anime from a major fansub group from back in the day. Turns out they are still hosting an IRC server with a bot serving their entire fansub archive.
Writing XDCC commands brought back some memories
Amazing writeup, thanks for the nostalgia trip. Albeit I’m a Linux user since 2008, I did grew up with the internet since the mid90s. Things come and go, but perseverance must stay forever.
I use Codium on both PopOS and MacOSi, it’s a bit slow to start, but performance is good, but I don’t know how it compares to stock VSCode since I never tested it. But overall I’m very happy with it.
Anker is a great brand for anything power related (chargers, cables, batteries, etc). Everything else, not so much
+1 for UGREEN. My workplace uses them for everything, I’ve used many of their products over the years and they work great.
Hentai is the only ethical form of porn consumption
