What do you mean? Quick Google shows that T-Mobile allowed wireless calling back in 2007.

You can create channels for people to join with Steam?

What’s a good alternative that allows easy instant message, voice and video calls, and makes it easy to group my friends by game?

The thing is that there are different target groups here that seem to disconnect. The gamers and tech dudes who want/have all the latest hardware and want to play every game maxed out aren’t the people affected, yet somehow they’re the ones who chime in for these discussions.

My low end thinkpad from 2013 doesn’t need windows on it for any reason, so why bother being offended that it now can’t have a supported version?

Isn’t Edge also chromium?

Obviously, but we’re talking about a really, really small subset of users that probably would earn Microsoft less than a week of coffee in their corporate office.

People who are technical enough to get around the system requirements to install windows 11 on a system that doesn’t meet the minimum requirements is most likely technical enough to upgrade their own computer.

How does that make any sense? Does Microsoft get a cut of sales for component upgrades?

Anticheat will have to just come from other methods that people will also hate.

Imagine, for example, if they required a form of government issued ID and the account was tied to you specifically. Despite privacy nightmare that it is (plus other issues, especially around globally accessed games), bans would have significantly larger impact if they’re tied to a real-world identity.

If you’re going that far you could probably just pull an old cached version of the page from before it was deleted

I’m with you on embracing the privacy nightmare to kill off cheaters in games. Tie an account to a real identity and that problem will quickly reduce.

I think there’s a happy middle ground where deletion just disassociates the comment with you. It will show (deleted) or something but the original text remains.

Maybe there should be exclusions for personal or identifying information in such a system.

The loud minority is really loud.

I’m with you on this. I prefer a dimly lit light mode to dark mode even at night. The white text always seems fuzzy and uncomfortable for me.

You guys remember that world of warcraft episode of south park?

This is him.

Is the capitalism in the room with you right now?

Damn dude, capitalism isn’t the boogeyman you can’t just blame everything bad on it lol

Not too different from ticketmaster at that point lol

I use generative ai sometimes, and I find it useful for certain usecases.

Are you just following the in ternate hate bandwagon or do you really think it’s no good?

You just end up paying a premium for your mobile plan at that point. There are much cheaper plans than the ATT one, and for some, you’ll end up paying way less if they buy the phone outright and subscribing to those.

My brain also takes information and creates derivative works from it.

Shit, am I also a data thief?
