If you want to play modern or even recent games and indulge your locked down metwork desires I recommend getting a secondary PC just for gaming and run a separate vlan to fully separate traffic from your existing setup. There’s really no realistic threat vector there barring a state level actor or something equally serious but I’m happy to be corrected.
Throwing in another similar YouTube suggestion of John Michael Godier
Yet the game still constantly crashes and has weapons and armor that have no effects.
Neat list, when I turn on the news now I hear about lots of civilians being bombed and starved, and targets being attacked within Iranian borders.
If you think we were closer to ww3 before in the last presidency you’re full on TDS.
Trump sucked but pretending we were closer to ww3 before is delusional.
he constantly flirted with WW3
How?
If we were flirting with ww3 before, what would you say the current president is doing today?
Every single person is looking at the eclipse? I traveled during the eclipse and the majority of people around us didn’t care to go outside during the peak.
Its easy to think that everyone cares about what we do.
The commenter ive replied to was stressing that not even a single dollar was lost, and believing not a single person in the entire eclipse area was trying to make a transaction during this time is silly.
If the cashier/life guard/security personal left for a few minutes or maybe longer the company that person works for didn’t “loose” money because they weren’t at their station.
If a cashier abandons their post, a nonzero amount of people will leave without purchase instead of waiting an unknown time for them to return.
If a commercial pilot takes a detour to see the eclipse better they can cause huge ripple effects on other flights causing significant costs.
If a security guard skips out on their post for a bit the business can be robbed or otherwise liable for issues during the lapse.
If a lifeguard leaves their post unrelieved or isn’t fully paying attention and someone gets injured or dies that’s a serious financial liability (at least in the USA)
People aren’t being paid for every moment they remain on task. They’re getting paid for works completed!
There are lots of jobs that need to be on task on an hourly basis, this ignores a huge class of people and assumes everyone is where you are in life.
Security guards and cashiers are two immediate examples. Cashiers need to be ready to perform the entire time they are working and can’t just work random flex hours as customers are relying on them. If customers show up during the stores hours they should expect a cashier to be working. Even if there are no customers in your line or store, there could be some in a minute or two. The “works completed” are transactions completed, but also the act of being available.
Security guards are paid explicitly to be present at specific times, the “works completed” is literally sitting there the entire time.
Lifeguards need to be present even if no one is swimming at the moment.
I stopped buying on GOG when they shifted their stance on DRM suddenly and allowed it into their store.
Have they changed stances in the last year or two? Maybe, but they already lost my trust with their initial responses.
We heard this same talking point in 2016 but somehow we still had a 2020 election.
