I would have written a user-script to find all check boxes and check them automatically.

Oh, wait, a game? So not a web browser?

I was the first person to post on the pluriverse in 2008.

I don’t even sell flowers!

Username appropriate.

Is it possible the heavy traffic is causing Lemmy to temporarily block this person and not actually crashing the instance?

You’re missing the “actually intuitively usable” part.

I have no problems with either. 🤷‍♂️ The site and all of their apps work fine.

Fast forward in emulators. Also, the menu toggle in Retro Arch.

In Dungeons of Dredmor, an old mouse and KB roguelike, the community made a good layout where every button is mapped to a keyboard key to open the various inventory and crafting windows, etc. With the track pad right there to act as a mouse, it’s honestly just as good as a mouse and KB. Maybe even better.

I think you missed a “not” in your last sentence

Drink the Kool-aid instead and join Premium. It’s great. YouTube is my primary source of video entertainment. No ads on any device and countless thousands of hours of math and science videos, SNL clips, educational videos, game reviews, and on and on.

For the cost of two beers a month, I get access to the best video library in the world with no ads, plus saved video progress so you can resume videos later, and YouTube Music to boot.

Why everyone on Lemmy thinks everything in the world should be free when it costs money to run the servers and pay content creators is beyond me. Makes no sense.

They will just be normal earbuds on Windows, just like my Pixel Buds Pro. Even worse because I have to “forget” then rconnect the Buds from scratch every time I boot my PC. They will always say “connected” with no actual way to switch to them.

You’re not supposed to listen to pre-procrssed audio like that with additional spatial audio processing. You’re supposed to listen with ordinary headphones.

It’s not, I assure you. It uses psychoacoustic properties of audio to simulate actual surround sound. I’ve been using it in gaming for years. You can literally hear when an enemy is behind you vs in front of you, and anywhere in the 360° around you. You can easily pinpoint their location in your head.

Pixel Buds Pro have this same kind of programming and you can enable it when watching surround sound content on your phone. You can even have it play regular audio but make it sound like it’s coming from the direction of the phone. When you turn your head, the audio follows the phone and it sounds like the audio is coming from the phone in 3D, not just panned L or R in stereo. (I haven’t played with this much, and I hope I’m not misremembering that last part which iPhone also has.)

Here’s a computer generated example using these techniques. Headphones are required! Listen to this with ordinary headphones with no additional spatial processing enabled.

To my ears, it sounds like the 3 channels of the source audio are little spheres rotating around the top of my head like a halo. The music sounds distinctly different when it’s behind me or in front of me. The distance away from my head is not far, though.

A technique like this will never be perfect, and this is not the best example I’ve heard. The best would be using my Logitech gaming headset in a game. It’s not perfect because everyone’s ears are shaped differently, and your brain learns the microtonal differences which your specific ears cause as sound echo’s around your outer ear and ear canal. This might be why I hear these music examples as above my head while others might hear it revolve directly around their ears or perhaps a little lower than their ears.

I enjoy how ignorant people who don’t understand a technology dismiss is with snark and get upvoted by others. Wait, what’s the opposite of enjoy?

It’s like how religious fundies with little education make fun of our best scientific theories with arguments that boil down to “I’m ignorant, so I don’t believe this”. Congratulations on being on the same level.

STOP

That’s not select-a-size. That’s just tiny ass paper towels. Select-a-size towels have no perforations and you cut them with scissors.

When you go on the internet you are accessing content on other people’s computers. You are saying, “I want such and such document”. There’s an inherent lack of privacy in browsing the internet. You can try to be private about it, but ultimately you’re not changing that you’re requesting data from other people’s computers and sending them data.

When you are doing something else on your PC besides browsing the web, Recall is still taking screenshots and tracking you. What apps you use, pictures you view, and many other things that might be completely offline and you don’t necessarily want a history of stored on your PC, with screenshots and searchable summaries. Do you want each and every one of your fap sessions recorded? Why would you want any of your offline activity recorded?

What if you forget to pause this feature and someone finds these screenshots? Who cares, right? What if your a closeted gay teen living in a conservative country and your family finds the history?

Then there are people who don’t understand computers using offline business software for accounting, or whatever, and even if they store their data files on an encrypted drive or something, Recall is taking screenshots of everything they do. If they don’t even know its happening, their PC could have years of data that could be stollen from them at any point in the future. Even if they never open those encrypted files again. Obviously, if their computer is pwned, then the hackers could just take the enencrypted files when they’re next accessed, but Recall snapshots everything all the time, even if you delete it.

Edit a self nude photo on your PC and forget to turn off Recall, and then layer decide to delete the photo… Too bad, Recall still has it.

It’s a feature that’s… ok if you want it, but it should not be part of the operating system, and it definitely shouldn’t be opt-out. It should be an app that you install with deliberate purpose if and only if you want itand understand the security and privacy risks.

Microsoft instead wants to install it by default and probably turn it on by default. Even if it ends up being opt-in, MS has a long history of asking people to enable features in misleading ways. And the vast majority of Windows users don’t understand computers!

MS is obviously doing their absolute best to blame-shift here

There is not a single word in that article that says anything about blame shifting. That title was written by wired.com
