To them it probably is. I’ve seen literal posts ( or GitHub comments - I forgot ) where they are raging their fps dropped from 420 to 370 with the latest patch and that the game is now completely unplayable!

They have a point complaining because the patch had a big fps drop, but the game is unplayable? At 370fps? Gtfo xD.

There’s people playing on a lot less than that.

I looked into that at one point, but 15$/month is quite steep just for that ( imo )

What could go wrong when you let an ad company dictate the browser standards/rules.

I know we have Firefox and some forks like librewolf, but percentage wise it feels like a lost battle ( even if I am on Firefox ).

If only people switched en masse to Firefox for the ad blocker. Wouldn’t that be something… One big collective FU to Google.

Oh well. One can dream I guess.

If it’s too hard to protect, you shouldn’t have it in the first place.

We have confiscated all the laptops we could find sir. They had a TERMINAL open. Filthy hackers!

To be honest my steam Deck doesn’t go that far beyond 4h either on a single charge when I lower all the settings.

The .htaccess file does nothing on nginx though.

I guess they might lose customers, but the ad revenue will offset it. Which could be a win for them. Less cars to produce for the same amount of money. If they survive everybody else will probably just follow suit. Like the car functionality subscriptions.

I’m just sad we reached this point.

Ban targeted advertising. Ban data gathering. You won’t even have to deal with the f***ing cookie banners anymore.

I had dabbled in gaming on Linux but never made the jump. After reading about recall I spent a week making my choice on OS of choice ( and then I switched a week after :') ).

I’m fully on Linux now. Even if they fully back down from windows recall I dont need an OS that’s trying to sell me something based on whatever I do in it.

It was my final straw as well.

Edit: and it hasn’t really been bad either. The shader compilation after every gfx driver update is a bit annoying. That’s about it.

I’ll probably run into something at one point. Like some anti cheat that doesn’t work and is preventing me from playing the game.
