Google quietly changes privacy policy so your Gmail and Photos could be used in targeted ads - Dexerto

A mix of both would be great. Something where your target your ads based on the content only, like the old days, and you don't need to know your customers at all. Only what you guess they're most likely to be interested in.

Put gaming ads on twitch streams, or pay a youtuber to be a sponsor. They're plenty of ways to "target your ads" while not needing to gather all the information you can possibly gather on every single individual in the world

Fast food isn't cheap, I could go out and get 1 meal for 15 - 20$, or i could buy a bunch of lunch meats, rice, beans, and noodles and live off that for a week to 2.

Can be delicious, probably better than MickieD's, but damn do you u get a lot of it for your dollar.

Cyberpunk 2077 Edgerunners update brings improved modding, better HDR, new content and more

Currently doing a mix of both, found an insane 300% head shot sniper and honestly I really don't need anything else. Well, till I need to reload and then go slice everyone up before they can even see me :3.

I just really wish the new update worked on my pc. My graphics card is apparently too old for the needed update, but somehow my steam deck is just fine. It just means playing at extremely low quality on the deck :').

(No it's not mods, boy does that make it hard to find a solution)

Then you should read their actual post since they're actually happy with some of the mods that have come out, and I do truly hope that the ones that are good for the community are not banned.

I don't have faith that using EAC will achieve that, and also believe other solutions are available. Oh well though, killing off a community inside your online game is always a great idea right?

It's a game against entities, who, the fuck, cares? If you don't like the players in your match you can just find a new one.

If there's a mod that gives you control over the host and prevents you from kicking them? Yeah alright, that's totally understandable, and wanting to fix that should be a goal.

They probably don't need to use EAC to achieve that though. Many better solutions have been suggested.

Individual rewards? What the fuck are you on dude, you complete the objectives and EVERYONE gets the same rewards. Mods would HELP you and never hinder you.

As for your second point, you're joking right? The company that's notorious for allowing bugs to go unfixed for years, even after acknowledging them?

Once again, you're just reading what you want. I've even listed examples of better suggestions that doesn't alienate their community, you just don't want to read them.

I have. You all seem to think only cheaters play with mods, for a game that's against NPC's which gives zero advantage to playing with them. You all just don't mind eating arrowheads boot if it doesn't affect you :).

A retired Penn professor has been blocking Uber Eats robots for months. This week, she got arrested for it

Reply in thread

Except they don't... because whether you block a human or a robot, you'll be arrested. Just like the article says.

This lady is arguing that robots should not have that right. So comparing it to a wheelchair bound person is not an acceptable comparison. It should be between other robots, and what rights they should be given, considering that is what is being discussed

I tried CachyOS, but here's why Bazzite is still my go-to Linux gaming distro

From personal experience, my rig is traditionally for gaming. However, simply because I prefer to make EVERY game work, immutable systems become a hindrance and not a blessing.

There have been many times that I can't mod a game, or install something that I need to make other games work, explicity because bazzite is immutable.

Bazzite also can on a whim change what your default applications are. The bazaar is ungodly awful as well, with it causing many conflicts. [They removed terminal and instead installed konsole for anyone who updated. Entirely unacceptable. ]

I would no longer recommend bazzite, mainly because they broke my trust by giving me a new browser that I never asked for, but just showed up one day after an update. Fuck bazzite.

Edit: I got the browser part incorrect. My memory is atrocious sadly, though the change was definitely strong enough to put me off of ever recommending it. They changed terminals with no warning what so ever.
