Current generation wifi 6E and 7 add 6Ghz which offers substantially more bandwidth / speed.

Wifi 7 also allows devices to use 2.4/5/6Ghz at the same time instead of just hard switching between them.

Would be a major setback since 6Ghz allows devices to easily hit Gigabit speeds wirelessly.

I was confused as it costs nothing but "enormous amounts of time" and back and forth with doctors to apply.

I had no idea there where for profit parasitic "optional" companies that would file for you.

The whole process should be easier and more automatic.. Like something your doctor flags on your file and just gets prompted to confirm AGAIN some time.

Having to constantly re-apply especially if you have disabilities that make the effort difficult and no family supports is horrible.

Stick placement and size looks terrible.

Most people complain that many accounts / not knowing where they should create them is the main obstacle to adoption. Creating even more seems worse

I’ve since revoked that access.

A few releases ago they made it so you can DEFAULT new entities NOT to be controlled by the VA.. I cleared ALL entities and changed the setting. I only add things one at a time to voice control now.

SO many integrations ad switches it is a high risk to default the VA to have access to all new ones.

I am in the camp that there is a benefit to the managed store. Since moving family members to iOS devices the number of times they have loaded malware or asked me for help installing ANYTHING dropped to zero.

Should techies be able to side load if they want? Sure, should that be a primary install method? No.

Epic isn't wrong about Apples payment requirements being BS, but Epic also isn't exactly a hero here.

Will be interesting to see how this pissing match plays out over time.

Should you be able to use other payment providers outside of apple pay YES!

Should you be able to install other APP stores on an iPhone? Not sure.

I like the story’s coming out where the AI puts the API keys for expensive pay per use services in plane text or creates ultra inefficient code that makes unnecessary calls.

And I meant choppy like lines and such. Should’ve said “crispness”. The game plays flawlessly on the tv with no output issues.

You probably need to take a picture, you might be describing that the output is 480i interlaced where every other line is drawn and some modern TVs will render that badly. In which case it is a deinterlacing issue.

Take a look at this link some games support 240p output mode..

If your TV has a crappy upscale then you can look into external hardware, however seems odd this is making it choppy, does your TV have a low latency GAME mode?

I’ll have to check the display mode on the tv and see if any other options exist. I did play it in Fill mode which kept the 4:3 resolution but I feel like that sorta defeats the purpose of using hdmi.

Well no? You are getting a digital signal which will be MUCH clearer than analog RCA.. Upscaling / fill mode is the Only way to make it bigger.

Then we would need to allow a convicted felon in the country. Trump is very clear he wants to "keep criminals out" of the US, we should do the same in Canada.

 

Probably the first article in a while that clearly outlines WHERE the negations are at and what each side wants.

 

I was recently trying to get some of the 4 player local games I have to work remotely.. Some have native multiplayer but with limitations (castle crashers only lets two local and two remote players play) bople battle only allows one local player in remote multi player mode.

However for both the above I was able to get remote play together working which basically let me map the remote player to a controller and play the game in local mode.

This however only worked on these games, I THINK they are linux native.. Games that didn't work / provide no controller mapping for remote play together Streets of rage 4, TMNT Redders revenge did not work. These games show support for remote play together in the steam library but I suspect the limitation is on the steam deck?

Anyone else have experience with Remote Play Together on the steam deck? It is nice as the remote party doesn't need a copy of the game and as noted gets around some of the multi player limits of some games.

Any suggestions? Alternatives? Tweaks?

 

Wouldn't be the holiday shopping season without some payment processing outages.

 

Due to variable subject length and these items being part of the same line as the subject they get pushed around a lot which makes them hard to see find when scrolling through history.

Would be nice if these links / scores where at the front of the subject OR the "next line" to be consistent.
