I think you're missing the point here. It's more that people couldn't even be bothered to search up how to do something (that takes seconds) that they want to do first, and instead just rely on someone they think is an expert without putting in any effort at all.

Your examples don't really make sense either as a lot of these are paid professions for larger tasks that most people simply don't want to do. There's a huge difference in searching online "how to install a Firefox extension" vs "how to do an weave", etc.

End of the day, the average person doesn't care and if they truly did they'd have the initiative to have just researched it and done it on their own.

Bringing it back to the whole thing about Linux, can you imagine how frustrating it would be to have to help debug a user's Linux installation when they already need help with installing a browser add on? I work with tech and Linux on a daily basis and I already find it frustrating doing it for myself (fuck Nvidia drivers). No way am I gonna recommend it to someone else.

Yea same here. In all my years using a computer, I've never seen such a thing aside from "preinstalled" apps. Is this a regional thing?

Now if they would only release a Steam Controller 2...

Not Eastern European but I do remember these in Singapore about 20 years ago. Stores or roadside tables would open up with racks hung full of disks in plastic sleeves. Interesting times.

Ah yes, we're all Asians and Chinese, one whole family so we should support each other! Except if you disagree with us, fuck you then.

As a Mac user, for whom PDFs open in Preview - because they’re effectively an image format - I find it wild that, to this day, Windows defaults to opening them in a browser. Windows has an image viewer right there.

I don't see the difference here. Opening PDFs in an image viewer is wild too to me and I've used both Mac and Windows. For the shit that people give Edge, it's a pretty nice pdf viewer and of all the browsers, it's the most fully featured one that I know of.

And is it that strange that it opens a link in a browser? That is the default application for handling URLs after all.

That's such a slap on the wrist for what she has done.

Android phone makers are shipping on device LLMs?

Do people actually want these?

Ads will probably stop me from watching YouTube completely. The huge surge of ads at some point was what stopped me from using Instagram.

I sure hope so.

I used to have a Pebble too but I've long since given up on any hope of the market building something similar that looks as cool as the Pebble was. What exactly do you think is awful about Samsung's Wear OS? I tried both the Pixel Watch and the Galaxy Watch and I greatly prefer Samsung's.

It depends. Wear OS is heavy because it's much more feature filled. I switched from a Garmin to a Galaxy Watch 4 because the feature set of Wear OS fits my use case much more than the Vivoactive 4 I had.

Isn't the multi-monitor support better in 11? It properly supports restoring windows into the correct monitor when you reconnect monitors.

Same here. Game pass is a pretty good deal even at full price for playing AAA single player games that you won't touch after a single play through. Plus, there's a lot of games that I wouldn't have given a shot if I didn't happen to have Game Pass at the time.

I started with 0 and dropped it within an hour because it was moving so slow and the plot was written in a way which wasn't very interesting because I didn't really know the characters yet.

Didn't touch the series for another year before playing Kiwami 1 which hooked me in all the way in the order that I mentioned earlier.

0 is really good but I don't think I would find it to be as good and hard hitting as I experienced it without having played at least Kiwami 1 first.

The other TF2 does have dedicated servers now though. Unofficial but it does and comes with mods.

It was pretty buggy though, my class had people's laptops permanently locked into the browser and unable to close it after the exam. Sometimes it wouldn't even let you start the exam even after launching with the browser until you restarted the whole system.

Infinite Wealth was a very fun game but it's honestly one of the worst stories they've written in the series with plot lines that were incoherent with the situation they've wrote themselves into. Not to mention the amount of time they spent on the Hawaii side of things having a very plain and unexciting wrap up. It's only redeeming points are all the numerous call backs to the earlier games which is lost if you don't play the earlier games.

I highly recommending playing in a modified release order.

• Kiwami 1
• Kiwami 2 (skip the Majima Saga for now)
• 3 - 5 (these don't age as well and the stories are quite a nose dive compared to the previous 2, so I think it's fine to skip them if the gameplay isn't really for you)
• 0
• Kiwami 2's Majima Saga
• 6
• 7 (known as Like a Dragon in English)
• Gaiden
• Infinite Wealth

There's also Ishin which is fine to play anytime since it's a spinoff but it casts characters from the main games to play historical characters so there's a neat bit of irony if you know who the characters are in the first place. So playing it after 7 would be the best time.

And then if you still want more, Judgment and Lost Judgment takes place in the same world and use the same brawler style gameplay but follows a detective instead.

I agree with you but a ton of people don't so I think this is a good compromise. Give all the people who want a wide unwieldy, slim foldable for those who want it and charge them the premium for it. Just don't touch my pen capable, comfortably one-handed thick and narrow Fold.
