  • Latest MSI BIOS update implements "anti-cheat mechanism"

    Jump

  • That would require them to run more servers, any extra CPU time is an indirect cost. By moving anti cheat to the client (along with other stuff like hit detection,) then they are only spending the customers CPU time not their server CPU time.

    It's about money.

  • Microsoft blocks registry trick that unlocked performance-boosting native NVMe driver on Windows 11 — workarounds still exist to enable support, however

    Jump

  • Server comes with way more tools than windows 11, anyone that could just use windows 11 as a server is probably already doing so. (Although probably still on win10 or 7 most of the time.)

  • 2026-03-23

    Jump

  • I remember seeing a YouTuber building this for real. Ofc it just detected if you used the sink etc, but it's totally possible to make.

  • Microsoft could drop the forced Microsoft account sign-in during Windows 11 setup

    Jump

  • I assume any technical person uses one of the workarounds anyway.

  • It's 2026, which tech did you realistically think we would have by now?

    Jump

  • I think the self tightening shoes would have been doable. But we still didn't get those.

  • ‘It was our little idyll – until the solar farm landed’: the battle raging in the heart of the British countryside

    Jump

  • This is a reform backed culture war movement, not a real objection.

  • Manjaro Linux Team Goes on Strike, Threatens to Fork the Project

    Jump

  • Who renews certificates these days? You automate that now, especially with 47 day certs coming.

  • USB4 v2 is only a year old, and the cable situation is already a mess

    Jump

  • Yea too many people buying something with a usbc and expect it to just work. Sorry that expensive USBC screen is not supported by your 5 year old laptop. You can either take it back or get a new laptop.

    Some people still insist that I just didn't find the right driver.

  • Ok, which of you trolls started this?

    Jump

  • But does it work with the foil? We found lots of metal containers didn't block the signal. Hell even a pouch advertised to do it still worked.

    Thick metal containers with over lapping lids worked best.

  • PewDiePie Promoting Self-Hosting, Blocking Ads, Shorts and more

    Jump

  • If you are talking about the home page, I blocked the container for "featured content" using ublock, that kills short and news in the feed. If you get linked to a short, you can use a extension to redirect the URL to the normal watch player.

  • Trump says he's been rejected by NATO, most allies to join mission to secure critical Strait of Hormuz

    Jump

  • I don't believe that, it's so he can try to cancel the mid terms by being at war. He might have just done it bit earlier due to that.

  • Hamster IT

    Jump

  • You think all long time apple users know that the application name is up there, or that there is even a menu for the app at the top of the screen? No, sometimes telling people to click on the apple in the top left, so that they can go to restart, blows people's minds.

  • Streaming didnt exist in 1970

    Jump

  • I almost forgot about the winamp video streams. I do still remember the 24/7 red Vs blue stream that was on it though!

  • Ray is basic.

    Jump

  • The species has existed for longer than Pleiades

    Now that blows my mind. I often think of astrological timescales to be so much longer than anything on earth.

  • Installing Linux Just Got Easier (USBless install)

    Jump

  • On windows if you don't disable bitlocker, then login at least once to your outlook.com account so it can backup the key.

    If you don't want to do that, install Linux instead.

    I do tend to find the native recovery tools for an os to be better suited, so one Linux live cd, and one windows installer or pe recovery tool.

  • YouTube ads are about to get even longer and they’ll be unskippable - Dexerto

    Jump

  • I think it might be something that happens during that short pause before a video starts?

  • Microsoft Copilot Update Hijacks Default Browser Links

    Jump

  • They did this with outlook before so it not a new trend. Though the question is if they have added an option to open externally like in other apps. (I'm not going to install the pos to check the settings.)

  • The Wifi God Demands it

    Jump

  • Internet down? That's ok I have stuff on my jellyfin.

  • bash-server: A minimal HTTP server that maps URL endpoints to shell commands

    Jump

  • Yea have you not be able to do this with Apache etc forever? You can even define the endpoint with a very unix like every endpoint is a file.

    On fact was there not even a vulnerability that was caused by the fact the CGI can run bash?
