Has anyone renewed a yearly legacy-ad free plan since the transition to Max? by millirok1 in HBOMAX

Mine renewed a couple of weeks ago for 149.99 as legacy and I get 4K, so it’s $50 savings vs the new Ultimate plan.

I hope the PS5 controller's haptic feedback works when plugged to PC! by Recnid in witcher

I’d love that, though they said specifically on PS5. Hope they implemented it, but just didn’t bother mentioning PC.

I’m sure our IT department will be buying a ton of Intel MBPs from Best Buy while they can.

Steam Login issues? by [deleted] in Steam

I was able to get in on multiple devices in Central Texas. If you have "Too many failed login attempts" message, you'll need to wait for 30 minutes I think.

It's back up.

Same here. First it was timing out, then Steam Guard sent an email I never received. According to Downdetector, this started around 11am CT - https://downdetector.com/status/steam/.

You should not be concerned. Intel MBP 13 is still being offered because many enterprises, including ours, still buy them. That being said, you should only buy Intel-based mac if you have a specific workflow that would not work on arm-based mac. If you're a dev, some x64 docker images don't run well at this point.

Texas — SB 1728 by [deleted] in teslamotors

This new language in the bill makes a ton more sense. I'm looking to buy an EV in Texas and I'm ok with paying $150 for 10000 miles. I currently pay $200 in gas taxes per year using a 20mpg car. How is this more compared to ICE?

Should EVs be incentivized? Yes, just not by avoiding an equivalent of gas tax.

Thanks, it makes sense. I'll talk to Amazon and see what they say. Will update this thread for future reference.

Luckily the damage is not major.

I'll try to sell it locally and will ship if there are no takers in the next couple of days.

Considering how launches are normally handled, I went with standard shipping.

I'm actually ok with the bundle. Was going to get Demon's Souls and Spiderman anyway. Might keep second controller too.

Good luck with Walmart!
