firecat , to politics in Arab Americans reject Biden, Trump reelection: Survey

I think you Americans are not understanding. It should have not gotten to be this bad, it shouldn’t repeat, the law should have worked and put people in jail. The fact that nothing works and the choice won’t matter, means they are better off hiding in public than caring about you Americans dumb little election.

firecat , to Ask Lemmy in Does the USA have any open market cellular options that are legitimate pay-as-you-go and only for what you use options like Europe yet?

The closest Pay as You Go plan is Ultra Mobile. You do have to pay $3 a month but that also gives you 100 mb of data and 100 minutes, 100 text messages (data might apply). You can then pay for extra time as you would for $5 which is around $8 dollars total if you only plan to use talk and text. This plan also includes communication with other people worldwide unlike America only phone companies. So it’s a pretty good plan for low usage people.

They do not and will kick you out of the phone and restart the new phone line. I had this happen with hotspot.

firecat , to Technology in HouseFresh disappeared from Google Search results. Now what? - An elaborate historical analysis and overview of Google search results and media landscape

No it’s not, bots are scripted to do things. Cloudflare stops JavaScript blockers, it’s not the same thing.

firecat , to News in Congress Just Made It Basically Impossible to Track Taylor Swift’s Private Jet

Too late, everyone jets had been tag and last known location will still reveal who they are. Useless bill as always.

firecat , to Technology in HouseFresh disappeared from Google Search results. Now what? - An elaborate historical analysis and overview of Google search results and media landscape

Cloudflare is totally collecting data, why else would they want you to disable Javascript blockers or fingerprint detection.

firecat , to Today I Learned in TIL one of the oldest TV shows was simply called "Sea Stories" on the BBC, featuring Royal Navy Commander A.B. Campbell describing the personalities and places he had seen. No known footage exists.

It’s basically like Anime, the tv shows do exist but no records were saved. You could try to find any source of advertising or something that connected with the tv show.

firecat , to Technology in Gabe Newell, the Man Behind Steam, Is Working on a Brain-Computer Interface

Not the strongest because Steam Machines with Alienware had problems and way too early during development of Proton that games couldn’t handle well. The controller was stolen IP and is still currently fighting the lawsuit. VR games are not great as people expected and rarely do new VR games arrived. Leaving the VR headset in storage for mostly the owners life. Lastly, the Steam Deck original has problems and announced updates or free ifix fixes just to not have drifting problems. Still the Steam Deck after the original has some issues with compatibility and deleting their data every update.

The company has poor track records for hardware. Valve is like the Sony of gaming, they lie about stuff and make you sign up to download the game in their closed ecosystem.

firecat , to The Onion in International Court of Justice rules that Israel must bomb civilians more humanely

Let’s bomb the International Court of Justice and see how they like it.

firecat , to Linux in Canonical's Steam Snap is Causing Headaches for Valve

You fake, everyone in the older days knows how the controls work. All except you younger people, you didn’t turn it, you slide it.

What you describe was the Arcade version, not the popular console versions.

The Iphone wasn’t part of touchscreen technology either. They were just the first to try heating sensors. It’s still being used in android devices too. The ability to use physical sensors is gone. Apple killed it off.

firecat , to Linux in Canonical's Steam Snap is Causing Headaches for Valve

As someone who was during those times, your Zgen knowledge is very incorrect. The games did work, including Crisis (original). As to why the myth you hear from fellow Zgen gamers; it’s because graphics cards were invented. Brand new, no one knew what they were doing with them. The companys Renzen and Nvidia started sponsoring games, it’s how they became popular, their logos were part of the game, Metal Gear Solid revengeance is proof of this.

Steam had no part in gaming history, they were not the first online platform. Dell made wild target before Valve Corporation was founded. Lootbox was invented before Steam launched it, Yahoo games (anyone remember them) in japan had the concept down to almost todays standards. Valve had nothing to do with gaming history, they are just known for their lawsuits and anti competitive behavior.

Just tell the billion dollar company to allow people to download the games on their browser. The Client only exists as a means to DRM and analytics, there’s no actual reason for games not to become standalone.

firecat , to Science Memes in Excuse me, René

According to the thought experiment of Schrödinger's cat, the animal can’t talk but also can speak.

firecat , to USA in Texas could vote on referendum to secede from the United States this spring

The only thing they can do is make oil and gas more expensive, no one is going to like that, no even America.
