Third party keyboards no longer accepted by HSBC's banking app.

They likely won't allow that forever. If Google has its way with the web, trusted browser environments will be a thing, and banks will only accept those.

it would be so nice if tapping a link wasn't an rng close app function

The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall Unity Review
I really wish I could play Daggerfall Unity, but it gives me motion sickness. I don't get that with most other games.
If anyone has had that issue and solved it by changing settings, I'd love to hear!

Or, seriously, a PS5 slim. (Actually slim, not the slight redesign they did.)

I'm making a guide to Pocket alternatives: getoffpocket.com
Reply in thread
That's exactly what I used it for, and the best alternative is Instapaper. Their free version does a bit more than p2k. They've jacked up the price of their paid option, but since I only care about the Kindle feature, I live without it.

A game you "didn't know it was bad 'til people told you so"?

FF12 is definitely my favorite FF. The combat system is the most interesting to me - programming your party to act how you want without spending the time of selecting combat options every single round. It's also why I love the first Dragon Age and hated the sequels. I wish more games used that type of combat.

How many of you actually use the headphone jack on your phone?
Every day. Removing them is ridiculous and pointless.

If your bank doesn't offer virtual credit cards (or they're a pain to use) and you don't want to sign up with another service, then yeah - PayPal is safer to give than your credit card number.

Tab groups are now enabled by default in Firefox Nightly 135
I don't understand what tab groups are from the description in the article. How are they different from keeping groups of tabs in separate browser windows? Is this just something I don't understand because I don't keep tabs open forever?

As someone who loves the first game and didn't like the second one at all, I'd say: just be sure you know why you like the first game. The second is quite different. To me, the second is more like a movie than a game, with huge, slow intermissions.

Gaming on Linux, How openSUSE Stacks Up for Gamers
The post is pretty high level, and it's obviously going to be biased given the source. Anyone here use OpenSUSE and another distro for gaming that can compare them?

Do you know if they have any plan to stop requiring invites? I've been interested for many years, but the invite system rubs me the wrong way.

Open Source Laptop with Mechanical Keyboard
I'd buy one of these today if the screen were bigger than 12.5". I wouldn't be able to read anything on that. Scaling everything is not a realistic option.

TMHI has been pretty great for me for a little over a year now. Only one outage because of a big power outage.
