Can't you switch MS 2FA to use text or their authenticator?

I'm not sure if we're talking about the same sound as it's so high pitched that most people older than me are unable to even hear it while people my age or younger can clearly identify it. If that's supposed to be a warning system, it doesn't seem very good?

I mean I'm personally a public transport kinda person. I live somewhere where a car is really just a status symbol since even the cheapest car costs at least roughly 90k USD and most people take public transport.

Not super into cars but is there even any reason other than environmental friendliness to get an EV? Where I'm from, EVs are all wildly expensive compared to their combustion peers and they all frankly look really ugly to me. The coil whine of the EVs also drive me crazy.

The Deck's controls. The Steam Controller was a bit too drastic of a change for me. It's great for games not designed for a controller but having no D-pad and only a single analog stick is a deal breaker for most people who get a controller to play games designed for controllers.

Japan worked because of what happened as they rebuilt the country after the violence. They were lucky the US needed a counter to the communist movement spreading in Asia. Post-WW1 Germany is a strong counterpoint example that shows violence begets violence.

What do those acronyms mean

The problem is that it was easier to get people to move to Telegram since it had an abundance of features compared to WhatsApp which was compelling for the average person that doesn't care about encryption. Signal doesn't have any of these features that make it enticing for the person.

used digital versions of themselves to interact with viewers in real time for well over six hours

This doesn't prove anything other than people don't really care what the avatars look like which has already been done for ages by the Vtubers without some AI nonsense. I was expecting this to be something like there being no human input at all. Why is this news?

Because there were still plenty of good games that came out after that?

I think the New 3DS had the best implementation. The swappable backplate were cool and provided easy but child safe access to the batteries behind 2 normal Phillips screws.

Because the people that would or can switch would already switch after it's been posted for the 1000th time. It's not realistic because the vast majority of people simply don't care. People hate windows updates enough as it is, to most average people this is good news.

 

About a year back, I posted on this Reddit about a work-in-progress version of this guide to creating a C# scripting engine that uses a modern .NET back-end instead of relying on Mono. I'm happy to share that I've finished the full set of posts and hope that it'll help someone out!

Currently, the sample I have is currently targeted for Windows-only engines due to the reliance on Visual Studio and C++/CLI but I can definitely see this potentially working on other platforms using P/Invoke instead.
