In the UK at least they’ll show a price then a member special price next to it, they used to have a while section of them in the catalogue they sent out each month.
Other items list prices then special discounts at the till for members.
Costco? The members price when you have to be a member to shop there?
Always thought that was weird.
Hello World.
No cosmetic items should cost more than £10/$20 imho £50/$70 is a full game for crying out loud.
Forgive me if this is an overly simplistic view but if the ads with cookies are all served on Google’s platform say then would all those ads have access to the Google cookie jar?
If they don’t now then you can bet they are working on just that.
There are a lot of games that work. Still some that hold out, mainly due to their shitty anticheat software.
Great. So managing printers, network settings and quickly comparing settings from two places becomes a weird game of screenshots and guessing.
Remote support workers of the world collectively shake their fist in despair.
No way on this planet I will be able to explain the new UI to your average office worker.
If they leave they’ll be less idiots with more money than sense around so I’m all for it.
The screens they use will always come down to what they can get enough of at a decent price.
You know there would have been screens that look better but use the battery up faster, or have supply issues if this one factory has a problem and they look at all that.
AI generated content is great and all but it drowns out everything else on there. Anyone can type a prompt and generate a great looking image with a couple of attempts these days it seems.
The people spending days, weeks, months and more on a piece can’t keep up.
When it comes to WiFi Mac’s mobile phones have fudged them for “privacy” for years, if this goes main stream I see the same thing coming in for Bluetooth.
They promise the macs are random but I don’t have much faith in that.
Looking up a real Mac to see what manufacturer it came from is something I do almost daily sorting out network issues for customers and really is not difficult. From there it takes a leap to guess what the device is if it’s name doesn’t help but more often than not it’s easy enough to see what’s out there, the random macs of phones stick out like a sore thumb as they don’t come back as anything usually so you can then track that around the network and see what they are up to that way.
I acquire the MP3 of the song I want from where ever I can find it. Be that buying it, YouTube converter or elsewhere. Then copy it to the SD card on my phone to listen to. No ads, no data connection needed. I even bother to set the album covers and tags up so it is all searchable in the Oto app I use on my phone.
Emulators have always existed alongside their consoles. That’s to only way you get enough talent involved in a project like that. Difference is these days computers are fast enough to emulate the consoles much better and the architecture they use is a lot closer to what the PC is using anyway in a lot of cases, or at least a documented strain of ARM with a few custom tweaks.
The people working on the emulators are pioneers forging a path that takes a massive amount of time and effort. Trial and error, tweaking and ironing out the kinks can last years.
