Something has always felt off. Swiss security is always a red flag, and free is never truly free. Don’t really know who you can trust at this point. Everything seems to turn to shit as some point or another.

Edit: I understand they get funding elsewhere and it subsidizes the free VPN, the free VPN also brings in customers. I thought that was obvious enough not to mention.

I accidentally bought a game that didn’t have English in the region I bought it in and they wouldn’t refund me.

That, and it’s easier to make a unified experience. Windows handhelds are notoriously difficult to use due to ui issues. I believe windows handelds tend to have a designated launcher designed for the device input, but it can’t integrate well since you are still stuck with explorer.exe

I’m pretty sure the lead on clouds is the industry leader on cloud rendering. He has some great gdc talks and paper write-ups of his work.

I am astounded people managed to drive around Japan without gps. The signage is awful here. Even with gps it can be a struggle at times.

I really feel there would be a market for something like star citizen without all the realism stuff that gets in the way of the gameplay. I’m a backer, and when I can get to playing the game it’s fun, but finding my way to the launch pad after every two years break when I’m trying to checkup on progress sucks.

Where are you where you have those options? Id love to be able to checkout tools at the library.

Awesome, thanks! I’ll probably start with the humble bundle then. I’ve also heard good things about eisenhorn so may give that a go as well.

According to their careers page, they have about 60 employees. And, knowing japanese game dev salaries, a lot of those devs (excluding senior devs) probably make around 30-50k a year depending on seniority unless it’s a unicorn company.

Can confirm, done this exact thing with tasker in the past. Don’t have the script anymore though.

You can enable them in about:config if you search vertical.

Edit: to be more specific, the setting is ‘sidebar.verticalTabs’

I wonder if this is somewhat in response to the successful Kickstarter night-runners had.

There’s an entire political party dedicated to political satire in Japan (the nhk party or the anti nhk party, I forget which one)…

I use Gboard because I can’t find another keyboard with good japanese 9 key flick typing.

Put me down for octopath! I’ve always been intrigued by it’s art style and would love to give it a whirl.

Good point, in the countryside there’s not as much apartment living so it would probably be easier to install a charging station.

The big cities are walkable / have good transport, but the countryside is inaccessible without a car for the most part.

How is Japan going to do that by 2035? Almost nobody has a garage, and there are no charging spaces at the parking spots most people are forced to rent (you need one within 2km of your residence). I haven’t heard of any mandate to get charging spots installed at these rental parking areas, and then there’s the issue of how electricity would be billed. Electric cars are for the very wealthy right now ( in Japan ).

I had no clue those were a thing, thanks for letting me know. Does the dock require additional software on windows as well?

USB docking station should be supported (unless it’s one of those external battery ones that plug into the bottom of the laptop). Remoting into work is fine but depends on the setup. For example, openssh with rdp works fine, can’t vouch for other solutions but I’m sure you could get them working.

Edit: I have been informed that displaylink docks require additional software. I didn’t even know those were a thing so I don’t know how difficult it would be to setup.
