Wooting and Razer had a macro function that allowed Counterstrike players to setup a function to always get counter strafe. Valve decided that was a bridge too far and banned “Hardware level” exploits.

So, Valve once banned a keyboard.

Careful, US pilots might start purposely crashing - seeing as a furry designed the cooling system in their suits they might get all horned up.

To track when you’re falling asleep or texting or are vaguely Asian looking.

I can’t tell you how many times I emailed someone last week asking that they don’t send me any sensitive information over insecure channels.

The Latitudes are balls in the worst way. Including the new “Pro” models. I’ve had i7 and i9 Latitudes that are slower than my i5 XPS 13, and yeah that thing sucks too but at least it sucks predictably.

Just keep old computers is all. Eventually your spec will be considered ‘retro computing’ and you can still enjoy the thousands of games that are playable on real hardware.

You posting on the Internet is also useless digital garbage, so put your money where your mouth is and go do something productive.

Yeah, my thought exactly, I doubt Wawa has a fancy term for it but it’s better than all your staff coming in or calling on Thursday to see if next week’s schedule is posted.

I had someone say “Well, yours doesn’t do ads” and, in the year of 5 manufacturers pumping out 10 different SKUs a year, we had the same model phone.

I said “Yours doesn’t have to, if you set it up that way.”

The answer? “Well, c’mon, play the video.”

Like, yeah, let’s just brush past the… What? Five or six tap solution? And before anyone asks, not a romantic opening. Generally people don’t make passes at bridge trolls who evangelize for open source software.

Just use Firefox Mobile to watch YouTube.

Ad blocking through uBO and can enable playing with locked screen.

Plenty of places? New builds are likely to have HOAs but pre-2000s builds don’t necessarily have them. Moreso if it’s not in a subdivision or suburban hellscape.

Stellantis is a Dutch group. If we head to Michigan and get the CEO, they’ll just appoint a new one… Unless you’re suggesting the Americans invade the Netherlands…

When you sign the agreement that you allow the neighborhood to care about the length of your grass, you agree to make it their business. Don’t live places that care about grass length if you don’t want people to care about your grass.

If you’ve got the money to be buying guns to threaten people with, you’ve got the money to afford a uHaul.

Same, HOAs are a non-starter for me. That said the price is going to be high with or without and those buying $500,000USD homes are probably less likely to care about an extra $100 a month.

If I have to mail you something to tell you to mow your lawn out of fear you might pull a gun on me, I’m not treating you like an adult.

People should be able to talk to each other.

City mails a fine. Guy gets mad and doesn’t pay it. Nanny State mails you demanding money for grass, government overreach, etc.

City goes to the man’s door and says “we got a complaint, mow the grass so I don’t have to fine you.” Man is treated like an adult who is given the opportunity for grace. Man mows the lawn and goes on living his life.

Would you prefer drive-by citations for everything without having an opportunity to correct issues?

To be fair to the pigs, they killed a man for pulling a gun on the nosey neighbor patrol. They wouldn’t have bothered to shoot him over the grass… Unless they felt like it at the time.

Depends on your HOA. Some maintain pools and parks in the area. Some exist solely to ‘keep property values up.’

That’s Postal 2 - I think an early day of the week like day 2. Having to go to the mall and wait in line.

I trust my family. Trust them enough that they have the passcode to my phone and can easily open it at any time.

But I’m not sharing location. How will I sneak out to buy gifts if they get a notification when I leave work? Nope.
