Just a serval who gets into all sorts of furry shenanigans.
Could be something as simple as computers just being screwy sometimes. Or something as unlikely but still precedented as a bit-flip caused by an excited electron causing something important to actually be affected.
Question is, are they running the 9x branch or the NT branch?
But what about forcing the computer to do something via bootable ASM?
Doesn't hurt that Microsoft's official answer to "what if my computer doesn't meet the required specs to run Windows 11 or later" is literally "switch to Linux".
It's always big data, isn't it?
I'm opposed to #4 on principle. ANY action taken against an account should ALWAYS be done by a person after direct review. It doesn't matter if it can be fixed afterwards or not, you're still potentially subjecting people to unfair treatment and profiling. You can have it notify moderators but the moderators should be the ones actually making the decision whether to limit an account for further investigation, not the auto-mod bot.
If you implement #4 as-is, I'm just flat-out not going to stick around.
EDIT: Also, I ran into an infinite loading bug when submitting this post.
Well, I guess that's it for Voyager 1. I doubt they even have a backup of its flight data to send back at this point. NASA wasn't keen on keeping records on old projects like this.
So, from what I can gather from the word soup here, what this is is basically molecules made of smaller polar molecules like water. They were theorized to exist for a while but we've now been able to make them for the first time.
As for what the significance is, well... in the immortal words of Dr. Daniel Jackson from Stargate SG-1... "It's fascinating".
To be fair, if Metaverse did integrate something like this they would definitely record telemetry data "for development purposes".
If you have a non-invasive, rapid DNA sequencing system like this, chances are you're going to have very advanced genetics research in general, because that kind of tech is going to be used in research fields first before anything else. As a result, gene editing using a retrovirus to propagate a harmless change to one's DNA would actually be a potentially available technology at least to some degree, although it would be tricky and expensive unless further developments are made.
The risk for security wouldn't necessarily be falsification or spoofing so much as making someone impossible to identify or allowing them to forge a new fake identity. A career criminal could use this to escape justice, a spy could use this to hide their real identity, and it could also be used as a sort of bio-cyber attack by using an airborne pathogen to lock people out of any services, areas or technologies that require ID.
It's still definitely a technically superior option to physical ID media on its own, it just comes with its own vulnerabilities.
Fair, but at that point you're arguing a technicality that most people don't really care about.
And if you want to argue technicalities, then I CAN give you a game that was released for the Steam Deck by YOUR definition. Aperture Desk Job. Yes, it can be played by PCs as well, but it was developed with the intent of it being a showcase of the Steam Deck's controls. You can't argue it "wasn't a Steam Deck" game if your definition of whether a game was for a certain platform is based on whether it was intended for that platform.
Not going to downvote you this time because you actually explained your position. Though your tone VERY much tempted me to do so anyway.
Well, if you're not trying to say something along the lines of "the Steamdeck plays PC games" then what are you trying to say?
Again, you're missing the point. Yes, they are PC games. No, not all PC games work on the Steam Deck.
The point was that not every game was confirmed to work. For a PC game to work on the Steamdeck, it needs to meet two criteria:
-
Work on Linux, either natively or through Proton.
-
Have controller support and/or be playable with a touchscreen.
Not every PC game meets this criteria. Some games still don't play well in a cross-OS runtime environment like Proton or WINE. Others are designed specifically for mouse and keyboard, or keyboard alone.
One game I can definitely say is not Steamdeck compatible is SimCity 4. The UI doesn't really work with touch screens well, the game has no native controller support, and it originally released with SecuROM so a physical copy won't even work on modern Windows, let alone Linux.
I mean, Google Search has had issues with reinterpreting, ignoring and even outright replacing search terms with "synonyms" that are only tangentially relevant for a few years now. I'm not surprised their AI is doing the same thing, and I guarantee it's "working as intended" and that Google won't do anything to fix it.
Maybe for some very stylistic installations that are more for looks than practicality?
This comes off as one of those "we asked if we could, but never asked if we should" kinds of things...
In my fursona's world, Santa's a polar bear and the elves are, paradoxically, emperor penguins.
In actuality, that world's equivalent of the Coca-Cola company had more influence on the modern concept of Santa Claus. Or really Santa Claws as he's called. Like IRL, in my fursona's world Santa is a traditional legend.
However, to make Santa work...
-
You'd need a fat polar bear (easy to find, bears tend to be on the chonky side in my fursona's world) dressed in a red suit. Or green, the whole red suit design was Coca-Cola's idea, originally the jolly old elf wore green.
-
The sack is a bag of holding. In my fursona's world, magic is surprisingly common, just not relied on due to its fickle and unreliable nature.
-
The sleigh... I guess you could put a wing enchantment on one.
-
Toon or toonified reindeer that ignore gravity during the flight. Could also help resolve the whole "white tailed deer" situation with depictions of reindeer if they're basically a mix of the two in traits.
-
Rudolph was invented specifically for the song.

Decided to share a photo of my partial. Honestly this is probably the best pic I have, the others are either a bit dark or just not quite as scenic.

It me.
I mainly make DAZ renders using highly morphed and geografted figures. Sloan's model is a Sakura 8 with Catgirl Megapack assets, using morphs from the G8F Shapeshift morph pack and RawArt's Sphinx to turn the default figure into a male anthro serval.
