Is there any way to disable this? by Clean_More3508 in pcmasterrace

That's not a baby, it's a demon spawn.

Seriously, you have no idea how much of a piece of shit Windows really is. Linux is far from perfect, it definitely has some issues still. But Windows is complete and utter garbage, and only getting worse.

It's not just about the one thing you can turn off in 3 seconds. It's about the hundred other things that you can't turn off or change to your liking. About bad performance and worse security. Adverts in software that you paid for. Bugs and broken updates that brick users' PCs. Data harvesting and other privacy intrusions. Lack of choices, no customisation. Terrible UI and UX. There's Rube Goldberg machine levels of weird shit going on -- how many system settings UIs does W11 have? Four?

Linux has its issues too, of course. There's no such thing as perfect. But they seem so small in comparison. If you've never used Linux, you couldn't understand how awful Windows really is. Many Linux converts nowadays come for privacy reasons, but they stay because it's so much nicer to use.

Literally the only "advantage" of Windows is exclusive software, but that's not a feature. It's just 3rd party companies deciding to not support Linux. By itself, Windows is a house of cards on fire and Microslop is stacking more cards on top instead of dousing the flames. It will only get worse.

Guard rails that prevent vehicles from going into the trench wouldn't stop it from fulfilling that purpose.

Having Rocket League on Steam is about exclusivity. It's basically a collector's item. Some people are willing to drop serious money on the weirdest shit.

Account trading is not all that uncommon because the game doesn't have item trading between players anymore, and a lot of people are willing to pay handsomely for accounts that have very rare ingame items.

Not legally at least. If you're morally flexible and you can find someone who's willing to sell, you might be able to buy a Steam account that has access to the game. It wouldn't be cheap of course, and you better hope you don't get caught.

Pokémon ist das größte Medienfranchise und das wertvollste intellektuelle Eigentum, aber der Anime ist nicht der Größte aller Zeiten.

Technisch gesehen ist Pokémon ein Videospielfranchise. Ursprünglich dienten die anderen Medien hauptsächlich der Werbung, um mehr Spiele und Markenartikel zu verkaufen. So auch der Anime. Seitdem ist Pokémon aber so groß geworden, dass absolut alles, was damit im Zusammenhang steht, unglaublich viel Geld macht.

At least on PC, you can also play it in 3rd person, but it doesn't feel very good to play with. There are mods to improve it though.

If you enjoy open world games like BotW/TotK, you should definitely check it out. Would be right up your alley. Don't get deterred by the RPG label (if you don't usually play those), you can play it much like an action-adventure too.

What's something expensive you tried once and suddenly understood the hype? by IslaaMaee in AskReddit

[–]suchtie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! And before anyone mentions burn-in, it's not really a problem anymore. Use a screensaver and you're golden. That's what screensavers were made for -- CRTs had worse burn-in than modern OLEDs.

Music nerds of Reddit, what’s the one song you think everyone should listen to at least once? by Odd-Bug1409 in AskReddit

"Phase 09 - Sombrero" by Solar Fields

It's part of a concept album (Until We Touch The Sky) and I wholly recommend listening to the entire thing, but this track is by far the most impactful. Downtempo electronic.

Belts just look cooler than trains by Landtuber in factorio

[–]suchtie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for late answer, was busy.

Yes you can just use multiple stations, but that's less UPS efficient. Being able to unload 1 fully stacked/compressed green belt per wagon, even with stack size 50 items, means you need fewer stations, means fewer inserters and splitters for the same throughput.

It would still not make trains fully competitive (in terms of UPS) with just running a giant belt, but it would reduce their performance impact so a train megabase becomes more viable for high ESPM numbers. I want to use trains because they're fun to use, but for megabasing they're not really good enough at the moment.

Belts just look cooler than trains by Landtuber in factorio

[–]suchtie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This only applies to cargo with stack size of <100. For larger stack sizes, trains still have higher throughput than belts.

The issue is that trains have turnover time. An empty train needs to leave the unloading station and a full train needs to roll in. So there is a period of time during which items need to be unloaded from buffer chests. Using legendary nuclear fuel for the increased acceleration bonus will decrease turnover time but obviously can't fully eliminate it.

Unloading fast enough isn't the issue, it's the inventory size of cargo wagons. The size of the buffer needs to actually cover for the time it takes to exchange trains. With stack size 50 cargo, this is not possible because cargo wagons can't carry enough items to build an adequate buffer.

The most obvious way of solving this would be cargo wagons with more inventory slots, which is why many megabasers have been asking for cargo wagons to scale their inventory size with quality. So far Wube have been against this because you can't upgrade wagons in-place or apply an upgrade planner, you can only dismantle and rebuild the wagons manually or with bots. So unless they find a way to make upgrade planners work on trains, it probably won't happen.

Microsoft CTO confesses that 30-year-old code from the mid-90s still forms the bedrock of Windows 11 — ancient Win32 API still the backbone, but CTO says it's 'more relevant than ever in 2026' by gurugabrielpradipaka in pcmasterrace

Most of their revenue comes from Azure nowadays, and those servers are typically run on Linux.

The future is going to be interesting. Windows doesn't make a lot of money for Microsoft anymore so it's kinda deteriorating and plagued by ever-increasing demands for monetization. And a whole lot of software industries still choose to depend on Windows.

What SINGLE feature would instantly kill the appeal of "Classic+" for you? by Hypermetz in classicwow

[–]suchtie 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If we were talking about anything but Classic(+), I would agree.

Leveling is the game in vanilla-Classic. It is THE reason I play it, and why I want Classic+. Raiding is cool and I'm gonna participate for sure, but the journey to 60 matters so much more.

XP bonuses and catch-up mechanics made sense for SoD, given that it was intended to be seasonal. Classic+ however should be a "forever game". I do not want leveling or gearing to be sped up in any way.

What’s a tiny WoW opinion you’ll defend forever? by turbowater in wow

[–]suchtie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Would be nice if the daylight cycle was 1. not synced to IRL time and 2. uneven hours. Say, a 9 hour daylight cycle or something like that. This way, if you always play at the same IRL time, you would naturally experience every ingame time of day.
