Looks good so far, if it runs well that’s a neat surprise of the year. Fingers crossed it’s not 70€ lol.

It’s not an issue that needs to be fixed by us. It’s not impossible to price digital goods differently in different countries, but companies would rather close up shop than let you buy a product cheaper than in your region. At the end of the day - the lowest they can price it is how much it realistically costs and the rest is extra fees for living in more developed countries, but they are greedy and don’t care about consumers one bit.

Also the digital segregation you are describing is already rolling out anyway with ID verification, that won’t solve the problems you think it will however.

Because realistically nobody is against it. People can whine all the want, they will verify anyway rather than miss out on online gaming, social media, porn etc. You personally might be the outlier and maybe you even convinced your family and friends, but sadly unless at the bare minimum 50% of users outright leave the platform enforcing age verification they couldn’t care less about our feelings.

If he was trying to say that, he would’ve said that. “I think the reason why our game succeeded in portraying a gay relationship in medieval times, when it was definitely not as widely accepted as it is today, was because we took that fact into account and developed the story around it, so it made sense while still representing a group that existed throughout all history.” != “We still pander to the gays for free sales but not like those woke guys.”

Depends on where you are from and where you are going. I’m struggling to find the page now, but Istanbul international airport only allows carrying 1 phone tax-free, for example.

Exhibit A: https://time.com/6563886/arnold-schwarzenegger-watch-tax-customs-detention-climate-auction/

In certain scenarios I wouldn’t even be able to take my other phone or a tablet with me, because a lot of airports/customs consider only 1 phone as “essential” and not subject to any regulations.

Do you have a family member or a close friend who is tech savvy and is also using BW? If yes - you could set up an emergency access, so that they can initiate an account takeover should you somehow entirely lose access to everything and need it recovered. The original intent is to take control of an account of a deceased person.

If that’s not an option - just save your master PW somewhere offline. Another person suggested paper, but honestly evaluate your own threat levels and consider having an offline backup of it on a device that never connects to the internet (e.g. a flash drive that you only connect with the internet turned off). You can also make an offline export of your vault onto that USB in case you get locked out and need at least your data recovered. Generally don’t overthink your master PW, a 10 word passphrase with a number is good enough, if it’s not a grammatical sentence - even better, it can even be not in English. There are also ways you can “salt” your PW in addition, say, your PW is hello-friend-joke-inventing5, you can save it as housing2-hello-friend-joke-inventing500 and just remember to remove the extras. If you are not specifically targeted and don’t click on fishing links, then honestly even if you save your master PW in your own BW vault nothing will happen, even less so if it’s salted.

The only way to truly mess up your vault is to change keys without logging out your devices, but BW explicitly warns you at each step of that process, so it’s up to you not to ignore the warnings.

I installed Cachy on a GTX980 PC, but had to use nomodeset, so if you wanna install some distros that are using incompatible drivers in the live ISO give nomodeset a try.

Oh is that why that happens? I just thought Nouveau drivers were incompatible with old Nvidia cards.

Non profit + partnerships (e.g. Google/Bing/whatever posting your articles on their start pages) and/or government grants (strictly with no strings attached).

100%, though I hope they expand on the freeflying and let you also approach planets and land manually, even if all it does is the same loading in as from the map but with a disguised loading screen in a form of you approaching the landing spot instead.

Rufus can still bypass every single W11 requirement and automatically complete the setup for you, including a local account.

You’d think, but Joelemz is doing 100% of all CoD’s on his YT/Twitch and people are cheating in old CoD games on consoles. If there’s online there are going to be cheaters. I even encountered some in old Chivalry…

Definitely a performance problem, no HW acceleration on PC produces the same insanely stuttery scroll.

Yeah that’s basically what you do, but the keyboard’s firmware needs to report itself as a gamepad for it to work, Wooting offers xinput and HID modes, iirc Keychron only does xinput and then Razer I don’t remember. Unfortunately the next best thing was some smaller company that had very limited beta support for such modes, and no other company gives a shit at all.

Alternatively Steam Input would have to add support for keyboards&mice, but the suggestions on Steam forums has been unanswered since 2021, so I highly doubt it would happen any time soon.

On the off chance one of your desired features is gamepad emulation - Wooting is the only one that has a full proper implementation of it via xinput emulation. Keychron has partial support and Razer has full support but in a different manner (don’t remember the specifics).

While the increase is not a huge deal because the total is still cheaper than alternatives, the thing that irks me is how they did indeed just announce it via a blog post titled “Bitwarden launches enhanced premium plan: Complete online security for everyone”. This reads like there’s going to be free, premium and premium+ at best, and “we are just adding more stuff to the premium” at worst, not implying a price bump, at least to me. I did not get my renewal email yet, so can’t confirm whether or not they don’t even mention the annual price, but rather just the monthly one. Another thing that kind of bothers me is that they list “Vault health alerts” as a new thing, while it’s always been there. While “Phishing blocker” just seems like a feature outside of the scope of a password manager.

All in all, double the price in exchange for x5 more storage and x2 more hardware keys is fine to me, but I hope they improve their communication and actually properly inform users of upcoming pricing changes.

And have you tried running said built-in wireguard on ISPs that block it? Spoiler: you can’t.

Ultimately the end goal is going to become using whitelists, as what some of the aforementioned countries have implemented/are implementing as we speak. Do not delude yourself into thinking that just because there will be at least some way to send a very short, lightweight message out into the world and receive a similarly small response while remaining undetected, then it has to mean that you as an everyday Joe will be able to browse yourfavourite.site as if it didn’t get blocked. Stop this while you still can, don’t count on incompetence or existing circumvention methods.

Ironically the install ISO actually went up in size from roughly 5.5GB to 7.5GB in the recent months.
