Half Life 2 still holds up really well, honestly better than a ton of modern first person shooters. The only places it’s lacking from a non-technical aspect is enemy variety. If valve did a remake just updating the graphics and gun play that would be my only knock on it and that says a lot for a 20 year old game.
Use a butane insert. Still refillable but it’s sealed in well enough to last years of infrequent use.
The “people” bringing it up nonstop on social media might have been state actors or trolls but there were plenty of real people who followed the movement. They’re still “But Gaza!” people regardless of how the idea that they should abstain from voting got into their head.
Biden is going to be looked back upon extra fondly after the upcoming shit show we’re about to go through.
It looks like they just didn’t neutralize/sanitize controllable input data so it should be a pretty easy fix. I think if a security researcher gives you a layup by identifying an easily fixable vulnerability a company should just take it, even if the product is old. If for no other reason than it’s bad marketing when news articles like this come out.

Let’s just watch none of them work on movements for ranked choice voting or other alternative voting systems and then tell me to throw my vote out again in four years.
It’s at the point where it requires enough equipment and skill that I’d recommend just going to a shop for newcomers. But it’s easy enough that you don’t need really need an expensive microscope or rework station so for people who already have some experience under their belt it’s doable as long as they practice on junk boards down to 0201 sized components.
The switch is underpowered for a lot of things but if it’s having trouble with Disco Elysium that’s probably more of a knock on whichever studio handled the port.
V1 switch just needs a jig, simple. V2 switch picofly is affordable and accessible to diy with some soldering skills. With the OLED models they put one of the points underneath a BGA chip making that more difficult.
But getting one installed from an actual shop will still only cost the price of a Nintendo game or two.

That is not what the Budapest Memorandum says. It’s really short so you can just read it but it only requires the US to bring the matter to the UN security counsel which they have. Russia has violated most provisions but the US hasn’t violated any.
We have, she wasn’t into it. She didn’t grow up gaming so she has a couple mobile time waster games and then just overcooked is the one we replay all the time…I’m worn out on overcooked but she loves it.
Well deserved. My wife doesn’t game but still had fun with it. This and overcooked are the only ones that have really worked for her.

A company “accusing” someone of piracy isn’t proof. Access to the internet is almost essential these days. If you can prove a person is pirating prosecute them under the law with fines or even incarceration if warranted. But stripping internet access from someone shouldn’t be seen as an acceptable punishment for a free citizen anyway.
Whoever owns the network attached to the IP address also shouldn’t be responsible for actions of every user. Let’s ban an entire company, college, or government institution from the internet because an IP showed up on a list… dumb ruling.

I wonder how recent semaglutide (ozempic, wegovy, etc) will affect this. It’s just come into mainstream recently and it seems like it actually does have positive outcomes for weight loss and addiction. When availability increases and eventual price comes down with patent expiration in the next decade we might see a huge change in this data.
