Most banks will offer virtual cards. You can use those instead of your actual card number, and if they get stolen you just cancel that virtual card, but your account is untouched.

The problem is that the people who would write these rules are the ones making A LOT of money on the way they are written now. For them there is no need to fix it, because it ain’t broke.

I’m glad they rushed it out without making sure they sent a good product first.

Fucking thank you. Finally another reasonable person.

Or, I don’t know, use an already open source OS… Like valve did. Lenovo made a choice, got lazy, and everyone is defending them.

Well, maybe if they tried, which Lenovo hasn’t. They chose to use barebones windows. They were lazy.

I don’t know, fuck it, keep blaming windows for everyone else’s failures. Whatever.

It’s doesn’t solve the problem because it wasn’t made for the GO. It was made by steam to be a front end for a console like experience on a TV. I’m not saying it solves Lenovo problem, just that steam made a front end over windows that fixes their problem. Lenovo didn’t.

I’m pretty sure Big Picture Mode on Desktop Steam proves that you can have a dedicated user experience curated on windows without having to rewrite the OS. Lenovo didn’t do anything, they just shipped stock windows and a storefront and assumed it would work out.

Not really a “Windows” problem, but a “Lenovo didn’t do any work to make windows better for their device” problem. Steam deck has an entire OS dedicated to making it run smoothly. What Lenovo did would be like if Valve just left you with the barebones Linux desktop and held out its hand for cash. Is Windows a perfect operating system? Fuck no. But let’s assign blame where it is earned. Windows isn’t at fault because Lenovo got lazy.

I mean, if you want to emulate a corporate ethos, I don’t think Japan should be the benchmark, either…

Play Limsa games, win Limsa prizes.

“What is my purpose?”

Frame gen shouldn’t be a crutch, and by design it’s only supposed to enhance games that’s get above 60fps naturally. It doesn’t do anything good for the open world that constantly tanks to 45. It’s not a master race thing, it’s a poor optimization thing.

It’s more of a progression from FFX than something like Persona or the newer FF games. It’s still turn based, but its more active. It feels like what Square should have done with the franchise, instead of going the direction they did.

That’s what I tell my partners. They are, thus far, unimpressed.

The front fell off

They give the Miyazaki quote and then say, “of course, he wasn’t talking about generative AI, but he could have been.”

What kind of article is this? They misattributed a quote, then admitted the misattributed the quote, then doubled down on it, and then threw in a political message.

People, this is rage bait. It’s yellow journalism. Don’t fall for this shit.

And all of them sharing a single 26k connection, too

It was discontinued in 2011. Anything that is out there today is outdated at best, and malicious at worst.
