It is. In Germany it's pretty common to have little plastic Keychains or coins to use instead of money.

My Banking App does have the option to disable this feature.

It's all fine if it's a user choice, very annoying if it's not.

I love the aspect ratio of Sony phones, It actually allows me to use it completely with one Hand, normal phones are just a bit too wide to do so comfortably.

No no, I'm sure my box of IDE Hard Drives & CD Burners will be of use to me at some point...

I have tried it and it works. It is not as good as a dedicated drier and not as energy efficient.

The worst filament was some 5 y old pla that was so brittle it snapped when unrolling from the spool, that just couldn't be fixed on the heated bed. I had to dry it at 50°C for 12h to be usable again.

This reminds me of the stupid Gigabyte RGB software...

Not sure if this is till the case, but for a long time the kernel driver had a known unpatched security vulnerability. And uninstalling the software did not remove the kernel files, so now your system is vulnerable until you reinstall Windows...

And I fully expect some kernel level Anti-Cheat to be no better in this regard.

If I remember from PirateSoftware talking about this, recurring Twitch subs stop if the billing date falls within the ban window, so 14 days ban means losing potentially half of your subscribers.

I have one group I play in where there are 7-10 Players. It's pure chaos, though since we play very infrequently and a lot of the players don't take the game too seriously it somehow works out.

Still would not recommend unless you like roleplaying with your fellow players until you get to your turn of GM attention.

I have a lot of experience with Windows and some with Linux.

The driver problems with Laptops are not only on Linux, though it is a lot more common, depending on the manufacturer Windows also has a ton of problems if you don't want to use the 8 year old pre-installed driver that was never updated.

And Linux is held back by (proprietary) software availability as well. Most of the time it would be Microsoft Office (a lot of people I know complain about alternatives like Google Docs or Libre Office not being up to par by a long shot). Another big thing is Games. Sure, most of them work quite well out of the box, but if they do not it would be beyond most of my friend groups skills to fix it. Not to mention the massive library of competitive games that some people play exclusively that just don't work at all.

I've been experimenting recently and while most games run fine and VRR & HDR & Multimonitor somewhat work after some experimenting & tweaks I still have problems with a few games.

Some recent examples would be Noita stuttering and running in slow motion. Getting anything from Ubisoft running (when it does run it runs great though). And modding is very hit & miss.

If Dual Boot with windows (especially if running Bitlocker) wasn't such a PITA I would likely use Linux as my main OS.

In fact Linux is the superior version of Factorio, since you get to have asynchronous saves that don't pause the game

Massive Ground planes on a multi layer board were my breaking point.

I tried to clean the through holes where a micro USB port was secured and only could get it cleared by drilling out the solder.... (Only had a soldering iron and wick available)
