The backflow current from fans is extremely minuscule and extremely unlikely to damage anything from that. There are even tests using a damn leaf blower on the fans and it barely generated any current. Even if it did generate a backflow, diodes on the mobo should prevent it from becoming an issue unless it’s a power so great that it just fries everything, but that’s basically impossible with a fan.

Here’s one such experiment.

I thought I already replied to this, but apparently not. Sorry for the late response.

The start menu no longer has the windows 10 tiles. It’s just search and icons of apps you’ve pinned. Similar to phone app menu. You can put some into folders/groups together. And that’s it. There’s no further customization possible.

You can get third party solution to bring back more features such as Start11 from Stardock, but that means paying for an additional software and I’ve heard it gets buggy with windows updates.

Start menu is permanently lacking features. But besides that it’s not a major change. There is third party softwares that puts back 10 style or other start menus, but heard there are issues with windows updates. Besides that just get shutup10 again and tick stuff off. Pretty much solves it imo.

I finally upgraded to 11 last week by accident. Apparently one misclick means straight to next version with no cancel. So after the upgrade first thing I did was get o&o shutup10 to kill the spywares.

P.s. I know I can revert. But that’s also effort.

Yeah this is Lemmy so I can’t say your votes turned out unexpected. But you’re right, all this will do is make their job end quicker. There’s no money to give, Ubisoft is dying as is.

Patent troll means to get patents for purpose of litigation rather than to produce goods.

Wouldn’t work. This has nothing to do with Japanese customers or Japanese laws. These aren’t even in Japanese courts. It’s US patents.

Surprised it’s still online. Doubly surprised it’s still getting updates.

People are still on EA Origin? They forced ppl to update ages ago. Surprising they even still had the Origin running.

BG2 came out in 2000. It didn’t exactly have a huge sales happening in 2023 either. It was largely considered as a shelved IP. Yet BG3 came out with massive success. My point is that you have no point. DA was (I would say “is” if veilguard wasn’t such a horrible piece of shit) a strong IP with or without inquisitions long tail given from past sales alone. No one ever goes and says their best selling product ever is a weak IP. It’s completely bollocks that you’re framing it as a weakening IP. Clearly BioWare thought it was strong too since they’ve spent huge amount of budget into veilguard. You’re presuming you know more than their huge investment and sales projection team about Inquisition sales.

Besides, how would you even know if Inquisition had a long tail or not? You have no figures, this game was released exclusively on ea platform at first and continued to be for a long time until it was finally released on steam. I know, because I remember begrudgingly buying it on ea origin. Steam’s public data in this is hardly a meaningful pie. My 12m Inquisition data on sales was their Sept 2024 release info. Which I assume BioWare released to imply a long tail and and continued popularity to get more sales into veilguard. But let’s not assume.

Btw, I didn’t say you said it didn’t have a lot of sales either.

DA:I sold 12 million copies. That makes it the top selling game Bioware ever had.

I bought both cyberpunk and BG3 in gog instead of steam. I would guess cyberpunk sells more through gog than BG3 would since it’s their own platform. Would be interesting if gog stats could be seen as well, but since it’s DRM free, tracking stats on some people are outright impossible.

I don’t use porkbun so I can’t guide you in detail. But look for “glue records”. Some will just call this nameservers, ns record, or some other confusing and ambiguous lingo (like GoDaddy…). Glue records are separate from rest of the auth DNS servers. Even though you are essentially doing an A record.

So if you have example.com on porkbun, and auth nameservers for this same domain is going to be elsewhere, you can set glue records. Like…

ns1.example.com ns2.example.com

With specific IPs like 123.123.123.123

This will allow you to essentially do the first step and not end up in a cyclic problem of one requiring the other.

I assume this is what you’re referring to as the problem.

BG3, yes. Massive success.

Veilguard is a massive flop. It sold a lot compared to other games, sure, but based on the amount of money they spent and time in development, that was a shit investment. They were expecting like 10m sales, doing 1.5 instead according to whistleblowers.

NA mostly uses ESRB while most of Europe uses PEGI as their rating board. They’re different organizations so they can have different criterias for rating as well as different inspectors actually doing the rating.

Because they’re already a major shareholder of Ubisoft. And they’re the only one willing to fork over cash for this failing company since they have a lot to lose if they let it continue its course.

Never heard of yunohost, but… definitely not worth managing your own email server. That shit is essentially a full time job. And it’s forever ongoing full time job, with 24/365 on call type job if emails are mission critical. Doesn’t matter how much other hosts are charging, it’s worth using third party email service.

Wtf pepe is considered alt-right because alt-right uses them sometimes??? I hear they also use English! Maybe English needs to get banned!
