Which personally I think does a disservice to their readers. If their article ends up high in search results for “best password manager 2023” for whatever reason, most people aren’t going to care if there’s a source available client or not.
Dash lane and 1Password might not have source available clients but they likely have better UI/UX than these more open source alternatives that are made for people with technical expertise.
I can personally recommend 1Password, the Windows Hello integration works really well. Asks for your PIN code to unlock (or your master password after a reboot). If you put your computer to sleep rather than turn it off overnight, you won’t need the full master password.
Also, if you’re so inclined, 1P has an excellent CLI tool you can use for accessing vaults programmatically. I use this for auto filling TOTP codes for my Final Fantasy XIV login.
There’s just a teeny tiny problem with that; disabling web search renders Search unable to do maths.
It’s not an issue for me since I use PowerToys to get Spotlight-esque search in Windows, but it’s nevertheless hilarious.
macOS search is so much better than Windows search it’s not even remotely close.
Loot boxes are indeed gambling. When you go to the clothing store, do you buy the pants you want or do you buy a ticket to receive a random pair of pants from their entire collection?
Just because money doesn’t leave the system does not mean the system is not gambling. You are still paying for a “ticket” to receive “a random outcome”. If you want a certain weapon skin and you buy a weapon skin crate, that has a 1% chance of obtaining that weapon skin, are you not gambling on the outcome of your purchase transaction?
It triggers all the same dopamine receptors in the brain of a gambling addict the same way slots and sports betting does. Using a different word than gambling just muddies the water in a very serious discussion about the direction we should be moving the video game industry in.
Valve is one of, if not the OG loot box vendors, and they would be way more hated if Steam wasn’t so gosh darn convenient for a lot of people.
This is how I feel about LTT too. There should never be one single location you go to for all your review needs - even if it had every single product in existence in for review.
I’ll look at LTT videos to see people doing dumb shit with tens of thousands of Britannian Monies worth of tech, sometimes there’s some genuinely good “hey, this exists” (see: PowerToys which gave me Spotlight on Windows), and sometimes it triggers a “hey I could use X, I’ll do my own research and collation of reviews”.
If they can get their Labs up and running and their tests being transparent enough that they can be peer reviewed, then Labs will be a tool in the toolbox, not the toolbox itself.
My gf and I are going to be playing this on PS5, really looking forward to the console release :)
Imagine living somewhere where stuffed crust isn’t available. More cheese… yeesssss…
I wonder why I’m fat. Forever to remain a mystery.
It gets stored, so you’re not wasting your time if you do the grind in WT1 just to have it ready when you hit WT4, but you do lose some EXP.
If it’s your first play through, do the campaign, as you’ll never need to do it again. You can also do all Altars of Lilith (there’s map tools online to help you find them) as you also won’t have to do that again.
The consensus is that you should save side quests for WT4 at 70+ since pre season 1 EXP at that level was hard to come by. It’s only in WT4 you can do the last tier of renown anyway, so no point in doing the grind sooner than that.
I’m the worst at remembering elixirs, this is definitely a top tip! Thanks :)
Builds will likely change in the July 18 balance patch, but during mid game (WT3 @ 50+) I recommend Firewall. It’s not as mana hungry as Ice Sharts and isn’t as stat dependent.
I use the Icy Veins build for Firewall and it works great.
Why did you have to make me feel so old 😭 back in my day we respected our elders! 👴
Weird flex on a post about how some sponsors are actually helpful but okay.
Aha I see, thank you for explaining :)
Also, sometimes sponsors have genuinely good products.
Karl Jobst had a Geologie sponsor which helped my skin clear up a bit.
Recently LTT had a WickedCushions sponsor which I’m hoping will work better for my headphones than my Chinese knock-off ones. I want cloth padding, not leather padding, for my headset, and the ones I got don’t snap in place like the official ones. Hoping WickedCushions are better. They’re arriving today.
Lastly, some of the sponsor segues and spots themselves are just plain funny and add to the content. Karl Jobst with Raid Shadow Legends, Internet Comment Etiquette and Internet Historian with NordVPN, most of LTT’s sponsors, etc.
Right, I see your point, thank you for clarifying :)
That being said, unlike the male-to-male example, where I personally don’t understand why the spec prohibits it, I think it’s pretty obvious why consumers want USB-C. The Internet is awash with memes about inserting USB three times, etc.
I think there’s a vast difference between “why is male-male banned? Heck it, I’ll create one as it serves our use case” and “I’m going to negate the only consumer-facing advantage USB-C has for no real reason”. Yes I know C has many other benefits but the common denominator doesn’t care about any of that.
I’m not sure I understand your point. You can make a USB stick that fries your hardware too, that doesn’t mean Kingston is going to make all of their pen drives fry your hardware.
Is this some kind of “acshully I’m technically correct because it’s theoretically possible” thing?
Except for USB-C, which doesn’t care about orientation.
Speaking as an Apple user - I am heavily invested in their ecosystem - I am extremely happy that Lightning is on death’s door. I fully agree with the EU and I am very grateful to them for forcing Apple’s hand.
That being said, your point about USB-A falls apart when you consider any situation where your vision is even partially obstructed. Such as; back of the computer, back of your monitors, a dock unless you’re holding it, etc etc.
What I’m hoping will happen:
A lad can dream…
The only problem with their SSH agent is, if you store let’s say 6 keys and the server is set to accept a maximum of 5 keys before booting you, and the correct key happens to be key number 6, you can end up being IP banned.
This happened to me on my own server :P
That being said, my experience was using the very first GA release of their SSH Agent, so it’s possible the problem has been sorted by now.
