That’s the key here. People who were willing to pre-pay for the game ahead of time are clearly not the target of the DRM, and yet they’re the ones choosing to cancel their purchase. It’s not pirates complaining because they want to play the game for free, it’s people who were looking forward to buying the game.
Mine are similar to yours, but only two relatively short periods per year. It hits me mid-spring, and end of summer.
As for your allergy testing, it’s likely you’re not really allergic to all of the allergens you were tested for. In many cases for those tests, if a few of the allergens trigger a reaction, then all or most of the injection sites will react rather than just the ones you’re allergic to. It helps when you can tell in the moment which one started it, since reactions happen quite quickly.
HFW was so much worse for conversation animations.
There’s no way they’re giving you an “upgrade” for free. Don’t worry, as long as you don’t pay for it, you’re not getting the new version.
3D printers can move very fast. They typically don’t because it causes all kinds of deformations in the print. Mostly the issues are in acceleration, decelaration, cornering, and controlling the heat snd flow of melting filament.
I don’t know whether or not the accelerometer thing can be done in real time, or if there would be any benefit.
Check out the 2-minute Benchy for an example of how fast a 3D printer can get. This is a test print that typically should take about 45 minutes to an hour at very basic settings.
But also note the quality of the end product. It looks pretty awful. If we could print accurately at even remotely similar speeds, it would be fantastic.
Fast boot is just Windows logging you out of your session, then hibernating.
Sleep is keeping the computer in a low-power state with RAM powered on…
Both of these have been known to result in laptops powering on unbeknownst to their owners to perform updates and remain powered on afterward.
Windows by default doesn’t fully power off when you tell it to shut down. It goes into hibernation and keeps the network open for updates and will sometimes power back on to complete these updates.
If you want to fully power off, hold the left shift key when you click shut down. Or turn the power off elsewhere (eg. psu or power bar.) I’m sure there’s another way to do it, or to prevent the behavior entirely.

If you’re looking for a fun Youtube channel to folliw, check out Sorted Food. They do a lot of silly food challenge videos, but a lot of them have some really good lessons for the average know-nothing cook.
There is a link to buy a physical copy if you like.
You know you were gonna have a second serving anyway, may as well just skip the trouble and have both at once.
The 3d gloop mentioned in the video is a solvent that’s used for welding PLA. You could definitely use that to properly seal it. And being built from blocks like in the video (which is due to a limitation of the size of a 3d printer) means that any leak would probably be limited to a single block at a time and probably not catastrophic.
Her videos used to be mostly about 3D printing Iron Man suits, but she found a (likely more profitable) niche doing sillier things with 3d printers and her engineering knowledge.
Not OP, but that’s one part of it. You can turn down graphics, and games will still look fine on the small screen, but some games just need some extra power.
I haven’t played RDR2 but something like Returnal runs okayish on the Deck, but runs great on my PC. If I want good framerates on the Deck, I need to turn everything down, and it’s acceptable on the go, but at home I could run it at 60 fps easy with better graphics if I stream it.
I’m gonna pick up Selaco again at some point, but my experience with it so far has been just okay. I’m particularly annoyed at the color schemes and the dark areas combining with the low resolution to make enemies really hard to see. Sometimes I’m low health and sneaking around to avoid being seen, and I look down a dark hallway, see nothing at all, and then bullets start flying at me and I don’t see the enemies themselves until they come closer.
Gyro-assisted aiming is actually quite effective.
Thst’s not to say anything about those games though.
The Arc 7 series GPUs were aimed at gaming. They didn’t generally perform on par with the competition, and there were driver issues at launch. IIRC they just couldn’t run anything DirectX 9 or older, but performed ok on newer games.
I don’t know what the status on them is like now.
Ignorance is not stupidity.
Despite this being reported on tech news, most people won’t even be aware that it’s a thing because most people won’t actually read about it. And the majority of gamers probably don’t even know what a kernel is or why an anti-cheat with elevated privileges would be a bad thing.
Most people buy their computers with Windows preinstalled and probably couldn’t tell you if the CPU is Intel or AMD.
Canada also has better consumer protection laws, so Newegg Canada is typically better to deal with.
Having friends and socializing is fun, but I don’t necessarily want to do it for 5 consecutive hours. Even at a party, it’s nice to take a break and let my mind rest for a bit.
