Torrenting is not allowed on Windscribe
I have a feeling the "especially for the amount you do" is an important factor here.

Evidence mounts that Marvel Rivals stealthily places losing players in bot matches, and I know because I'm the loser
Being punished for leaving bot matches is the only issue I'd have with this.

Is it rude to reply using English under posts in a language you can’t speak?
I don't do it, but if I did, I would consider apologetically offering the machine translation inline with my post. Why put the burden on them to do it if you want it to be read?

Google Maps is over! The tech giant complies with EU orders to remove navigation services from search results

I can't tell whether you're being intentionally ironic. Yes the EU would be up for it. The EU didn't ban cookies. Putting it simply, you do not need a cookie banner if you aren't tracking people.

I think people generally think in paths like this. The difference is the impulsive conversation topic change, not the train of thought. Some neruotypicals (like my wife) can find it jarring.

It’ll sport a flat camera bump
That's a weird way of saying it won't have a camera bump.

Why the hell is installing new fonts such a foreign concept?
This won't be popular, but any time I see an android screenshot with a custom font it looks offensively bad to me. I still think it's important for accessibility reasons though, as certain fonts can be a big help for people with dyslexia.

"I asked them to delete my data, they said 'Install our app'"
Ask them who their nominated data controller is, then email that person. It's worked very well for me in the past, like they automatically flagged them for the words "data controller".

New laptop and the f-ing copilot key
It's just triggering Super+C under the hood, you could definitely assign it to a global shortcut with Gnome's keyboard shortcuts. You could probably also get it to work like whatever key should be there (ctrl?) with a little more effort.

Linux For Life
I feel this meme was created by someone who didn't actually know Windows in depth and recently learned of the kill command. Which by default just asks the process nicely to terminate itself.

I think people don't realise how old Reddit is, it was smaller than Lemmy is now when I first started using it.

Former Bethesda dev who quit Starfield to go solo says it's 'much less stressful as an indie' without daily meetings or 'office politics': it's 'very refreshing to just care about the game'

Having worked from Europe for a US tech company, that's the norm. I had about 15 Americans reporting into me and I required them all to take a minimum of 20 days off. Most of them found this confusing at first, like it was a trap or something, and I had to insist. My peers in leadership in the US could not understand how my employee retention was so good.
