Yeah, they were definitely ahead of their time when it came to social issues

Meh, Southpark already did it.

No, it’s not Nintendo’s choice. That’s like saying it’s Nvidia’s choice when a game doesn’t implement hardware accelerated ray tracing.

Ah, I didn’t research that far into it, so good point. Although I can see the reasoning behind it from a business standpoint.

Buddy, a very large part of my job is locking down Linux as much as possible while still allowing it to do it’s job. I can confidently say that not locking things down was a decision that was made, not a restraint of the system they used.

I’m not saying that they didn’t lock it down to allow piracy, which is actually a really dumb take. They probably did it to allow moding and allow it to be used as a desktop.

Right, so you don’t know what you’re talking about and shouldn’t speak authoritatively on the subject.

I drive a car every day, but that doesn’t mean I can speak authoritatively on how its transmission works.

But, I am a senior SecOps engineer (like a systems engineer but also a cyber security expert) working mostly with Linux, and I can authoritatively say that you’re mistaken about Valve’s ability to block piracy in Linux.

My point was that it’s on the devs, not Nintendo. The functionality exists, devs just need to implement it.

The same was true for Steam as well, once upon a time.

I think it’s more like Big Cousin instead of little brother, since the corpos run things.

Tell me you don’t know how to administer Linux without telling me you don’t know how to administer Linux.

You probably shouldn’t talk authoritatively on a topic you clearly know nothing about.

Every game I’ve pirated I eventually purchased, but I stopped when steam had their 2h playtime return window.

Switch save files can be saved in the cloud, but the game devs have to enable it. You can also save them to an SD card.

But in this universe, people willingly pay money for Big Brother to watch them.

CompTIA certs are basically worthless in the IT field unless you’re trying to get your foot in the door on an IT Helpdesk. Getting vendor specific certs is usually the way to go.

Checkout Remote Desktop Manager from Devolutions. It let’s you do pretty much any type of remote connection you need to do, and can even do things like start your VPN for you before accessing a remote resource.

But also super high throughput.

That’s because it’s being advertised as a solution. That’s why you have people worried it’ll take their jobs when in reality it’ll let them do the job better.

Yeah, they think it can turn a beginner dev into an advanced dev, but really it’s more like having a team of beginner devs.

It’s helped me a bit with resolving weird tomcat/Java issues when upgrading to RHEL8, though. It didn’t give me an answer, but it gave me ideas on where to look (in my case I didn’t realize fapolicyd replaced selinux)

Yup, AI is a tool, not a complete solution.

I assumed it was the same DRM that Zoom uses, and the rdp method works for screen recording meetings.

RDPing into another computer and capturing the video feed from the remote computer should work, though

I don’t think you can fault streaming services for people not properly managing their finances. That’s more on the public schools not actually teaching any helpful life skills.

Ah, they made that pretty ambiguous by putting the asterisk where they did.

I really don’t think $11.67 a month counts as an unreasonably large fee.

Per the email, their current monthly rate was $10=>x<11, so that’s only a jump of $20 a year.
