One of the biggest controversies at the start of all of this was Ubisoft pulling The Crew whilst pushing people to buy The Crew 2. Frankly it’s amazing we haven’t seen that more often with the near identical sequels such as the Madden, FIFA, F1 etc games.

No one’s forcing you to buy a remaster… unless they are because they revoke your right to play the original so it’s your only option.

Remasters and remakes will still happen but companies won’t have as much freedom to yoink a purchased product from your pocket years down the track in the name of some profit strategy.

Alternatively, when the console control scheme is tight and well made but the PC controls are ASDF + whatever random keys spread at opposite ends of the keyboard.

Alt+tab also cycles between 2 tabs in edge if a previos tab was selected

Alt+tab? What about ctrl+tab? What we were talking about…

To answer my own question, I did a bit of searching and it looks like ctrl+tab still only cycles to the next tab in Edge. There’s a few requests for it to cycle to previous tab like alt+tab but looking through the settings and stuff it still doesn’t look like an option.

Always happy to be proven wrong but it looks like it’s still not an option.

It’s so odd to me that this isn’t the default behaviour for all browsers especially Edge. It’s literally alt+tab behaviour but for some reason browser designers decided it wouldn’t work that way.

NSW hate crime laws were passed in February this year in response to an increase in hate speech and a string of anti-Semitic incidents in the state.

It also gets pushed out! (Normally)

I’ve had 3 batteries replaced in three separate phones. The closest thing to an “issue” is they broke 2 of the phones, sounds bad right?! But wait, there’s more. Since it’s the phone manufacturer and quite obviously their fault they replaced them with brand new phones of the same model. No more scratches and such. Just had to restore them from backup.

Also had a brand new phone start doing weird shit. I took a video of it doing the weirdness and went into the store. They couldn’t fault it or replicate it in any way. Still replaced because I had proof and the dude was super chill about it.

Obviously, not everyone is going to receive the same service or see having a complete new phone over a replacement battery as a positive but from my experience I can’t fault Apples service so far.

Yes, though not to the extreme.

Blasphemy!!

Wake me up when I can sync them to Nextcloud/Immich.

I’ve been giving Immich another go recently but I think it just tried to prune almost 900 photos from my photo library which keeps me very hesitant to keep using it.

This would unironically appeal to me. I’m not spending huge dollars on a MacBook for a glorified terminal/browser machine. Not saying they’re bad, just that my use case doesn’t require that much horsepower.

For more strenuous tasks I have a full tower PC that’s decked out but having something sleek for on the go that works with the rest of my portable items (AirPods, iPhone etc) would be nice.

Tits, self relief and death? That’s one more thing than I’m guaranteed at the moment, where do I sign up?

FUCK YEAH! DEMOCRACY MADE MANIFEST!

My car has an electronic dash and one of the only benefits is displaying information such as GPS turn info in the centre of the dash cluster. The down side is that it only works with the built in GPS guidance which is almost always out of date. So even though it’s inconvenient I still default to using CarPlay and having guidance in the infotainment screen instead.

So I could see that as a useful feature if it’s opt-in. Ask the first time “would you like to see promotion for venues of purchase” or something.

But the random promotional notifications, like the F1 thing, can flog off.
