I don’t know where they manufacture but from what I could find Hori is a Japanese company.

Yeah, underwhelming. But at least not Chinese.

Or from the other side, taking a random ass USB stick from someone you barely know? Nah. Who the hell knows what it could be infested with.

I don’t understand why everyone’s so hell bent on turning the EU into yet another authoritarian mass surveillance state.

Depends highly on your country. Generally, for file sharing (peer 2 peer such as torrents), yes. For regular downloads & streaming sites, not so much, just a fully subscribed adblocker and a bit of brain juice. Although there had been some cases of peer 2 peer streaming in the past, but I think that was via flash players. I don’t know if that’s still a thing anywhere and if it is, I think it would not make it into the megathread (I hope).

I just find the whole UI obtuse. Also too many dependencies if you’re on KDE.

We had one of those thingies that would allow you to rip SNES cartridge roms onto floppy disks.

People did end up copying rentals too. Not just for videos but also games.

That depends on what they bought the Deck for. Not everyone has much of an interest in playing games that require the trackpads, so there’s still a big market for handhelds that cover the rest.

I could do without the trackpads but everything else I agree on.

Not sure if I’d prefer a tiny physical keyboard with shitty flat buttons over a swipe capable touch keyboard. Especially since it does not look like it would be comfortable to reach with your thumbs.

I really don’t know why you added a 5 year old abandoned distro to your title.

I’m guessing it runs on Python, given the name. Either way, I think it’s generally great that more and more mod managers finally are natively Linux compatible. Still hoping for a native one for Bethesda games though.

Crucial MX 500 & Samsung 870 Evo are reliable / good & “cheap” SATA SSDs. For NVMe there’s the WD Blue SN570 and the Kioxia Exceria G2 but keep in mind that they tend to have smaller storage sizes too and depending on your use case you might not really notice a performance difference between SATA and NVMe anyway. Personally, I stay away from all native Chinese products. They tend to have terrible quality and fall apart quickly. I’m sure there’s exceptions here and there but wading through all the garbage and having to buy twice does not seem worth it and I rather support that country as little as possible anyway.

At least be more specific if you’re looking for one specific game.

It got removed from the store a long long time ago. They moved to Gitlab but I guess that one got nuked recently too.

Does the old gitlab version still receive updates, if still installed, like the removed Mozilla addon store one?

That’s not a correct interpretation of the permission:

Access your data for sites in the “named” domain

The extension could read the content of web pages you visit in the specified domain, as well as data you enter into those web pages, such as usernames and passwords.

It requires permission to modify said domains to remove the paywall from their articles.

It works automatically on supported sites.

What’s the use case here? Why chose this over SteamOS?
