Bold of you to use the word bold

I need to start doing that

Is there any other browser that does a right-side vertical tab bar with compact tabs?

There’s an extension for Firefox to do it, but it’s a bit clunkier than Vivaldi’s - definitely something I’d only switch to if I really had to… but every other browser I’ve seen only offers left-side vertical tabs at best, which is terrible if you want 3 monitors in a left-to-right layout with your browser on the left.

I don’t know if I was blind the other day or if it wasn’t there, but the headphone icon is definitely there now. Cheers!

Wasn’t the entire point of not using “Windows 9” branding and instead going straight to “Windows 10” from 8 that they didn’t want the last version of Windows to be 9, that they preferred a nice round number.

Isn’t there a Black Mirror episode of this

This is an old message I only just noticed, but maybe that’s better anyway…

…because my ChatGPT app is up to date and doesn’t have a headphone icon to the right of the text box. There’s a soundwave icon that lets me use speech to text, but that’s not what this is.

Can anyone use this? Right now?

They created the “inbox” button on the desktop client because when you’re in a ton of servers, finding where the notification was a big pain point. The notifications tab covers the same thing for the app, and it’s very readily accessible now. I think before the update it still took about 3 taps to get to the “Inbox”, and only then if you knew where it was hiding.

Why doesn’t Matrix just call “spaces” servers? By calling them spaces, they have created a learning curve for no reason.

Even just saying you have to download a client called Element to access Matrix is not intuitive. To access Discord, you download a client called Discord.

They ban everyone who attempt to use a custom client?

I’ve been using Betterdiscord for years and have never been banned. Matrix looks good, but I don’t think you’re selling it well by throwing Discord under the bus without some very clear and obvious justification - nobody will be inclined to believe you.

Do you have discord open on your desktop PC?

10+ minutes sounds like about the amount of time it takes for discord to recognise you’re away (ie. auto-away status). If it thinks you’re there (ie. online status), then it shouldn’t be also pinging your phone. It’s the same as when you have discord on your phone and open and it doesn’t ping you with every message while you’re already looking at it.

I just had a look at Matrix and it seems that the settings let you choose between Off/On/Noisy. Apps like whatsapp default and keep you stuck on “Noisy”.

HotS isn’t really dead - you can play it now and it feels as good as ever. We all want to see continued balance patches and more cosmetics and heroes and maps but the fact is that it already feels balanced and has enough cosmetics and enough heroes and enough maps.

That’s not to say we won’t love more or that we may as well stop playing it, but the real question you’re asking here is if the game is dead - it is not dead, and therefore won’t “return”. You just load it up, pick a hero, click Ready - and it’s “returned”.

The event is a celebration - why would they bring up layoffs?

High quantity, low quality?

Maybe video games should be priced at value per hour

I don’t know if I want to be punished for doing well

Contraband Police - it’s like Papers Please, but since it’s in first person, it’s more complex - you have to manage the whole border crossing area with the few staff you have, you have a car that you have to manually drive to a supply shop and to drop prisoners and contraband off at, and you can get ambushed along the way or at your base, where you’re manually be shooting at smugglers with guns you buy.

Shadows of Doubt - A game where you play as a detective in a city and you have to solve cases (sometimes murders) and often end up committing crimes yourself along the way. A lot of cases solved used by matching faces to names to fingerprints to voices to jobs to blood type, eye colour, hair colour, age, and so on. Extremely addictive and often hilarious, despite how buggy this early access game is.

Dicey Dungeons - A roguelike deckbuilder with 6 different classes where you roll dice against cards with different effects and your enemy does the same to you. I don’t love roguelikes and really don’t like deck games but this one is really appealing, and has a great soundtrack. The different classes play through a LOT of different “episodes” where the rules of the game change.

also playing a lot of Heroes of the Storm every goddamn night

Do yourself a favour and get Bitwarden or similar. Browser password managers are way too vulnerable.

Is Tom Holland now better known for Uncharted rather than Spiderman?

Just like real friendship.
