My experience was with Apple News. When I wanted To cancel before the end date, it told me I would lose access to the trial.

Unfortunately, a lot of companies do this now, including Apple. I made it a habit to create a reminder to cancel before the end date.

That’s where Windows belongs now, in a VM.

Yup. It is an official proof that the package wasn’t delivered.

To me, instances are like countries. c/[email protected] is not the same as c/[email protected] because lemmy.ml culture and policies are different from lemmy.world. In this case, go to c/[email protected].

I guess it’s a good investment to have peace of mind! /s

It is not. It is a demo. The company demonstrates the game to you. You’re free to play it as long as you want so that you can make an informed decision afterwards.

And this is where pirating comes into play. For example, I bought Fifa 23 but because of the bundled anti-cheat giving me a lot of problems, I downloaded the cracked version.

Good! That means less people drinking sugar!

That’s a very extreme view, my friend. A lot of Youtubers come up with good products. For example, LevelOneTechs has come up with a pretty good KVM that a lot of mainstream companies haven’t been able to perfect. So I enjoy it when Youtubers advertise their merch.

The whole thing seems rushed because the CEO of Unity, John Riccitiello, was the leading advocate of microtransactions when he was at EA, and now he is instilling the same culture at Unity.

How will they differentiate between pirated copies and legitimate copies? How will they distinguish first-time installs from repeat installs? Can we trust their algorithm? It just doesn’t seem possible.

I hope that since Bathesda is now a Microsoft studio, Microsoft is going to be persistent with bug fixes. But maybe it’s a tall order.

Being a patient gamer is best. We need to give it at least 6 months for Bathesda to optimize the game and fix the major bugs.

Interesting. I might try that

I also enjoyed Andromeda but I just can’t get myself to replay it. I replayed the Trilogy multiple times but I just couldn’t replay Andromeda, it felt like a chore.

Check your enhanced Tracking protection settings and see if its at strict. Another user had the same problem here: https://lemmy.ml/post/3612554

It works perfectly on my end:

While cameras generated a mechanical reproduction of a scene, she explained that they do so only after a human develops a “mental conception” of the photo, which is a product of decisions like where the subject stands, arrangements and lighting, among other choices.

I agree. The types of AIs that we have today are nothing more than mixers of various mental conceptions to create something new. These mental conceptions comes with life experience and is influenced by a person’s world view.

Once you remove this mental conception, will the AIs that we currently have today be able to thrive on their own? The answer is no.

Brother, it is good to know that we’re on the same page.

I’ve nothing by good experience with Brother laser printers.

I don’t think it’s a good idea. Most people are not tech-oriented, which means it will be a huge security risk. And I want my smartphone to be a phone first and foremost. I want it to have a good battery life so that if I need to make an emergency call, I can rely on it.
