DRM is optional on Steam and up to the game developer.

Well in this case MasterCard is claiming it wasn't them, but their intermediary.

I assume all those intermediaries have to pass on the same ToS to their customers otherwise that seems like a very unusual move.

Wasn't it still "unlimited" for photos uploaded before the cut-off? That's quite reasonable for a free service vs. "paid lifetime".

If you disable defender using group policy, from my experience that's been disabled consistently for a year no problems. Latest version of Windows 10.

Note you need to disable tamper protection and reboot first otherwise it silently reenables itself.

What did you think of the Pixel 5? It's only 0.5cm taller and otherwise more or less identical in dimensions.

Google commited to five years of security updates for the Pixel 6. It was one of their big selling points for the device.

When individual windows are ungrouped their application name is displayed, so you can just look for the name of the document or window you're looking for. I miss this feature too.

How is hole punching more secure than UPnP? They both achieve exactly the same thing.

You should be getting considerably less latency than that. Is the Discord server perhaps set to the wrong region?

I really hate this argument. You can't reliably determine the exact temperature or future weather conditions by looking out of the window.

Aukey is usually cheaper than Anker in my experience. That's why people buy from them, it's Anker-like quality at a cheaper price.

On almost every phone you can turn showing battery percentage back on if you want it. What OEM are you using?
