Updates generally don't require settings resets. It can happen if there's major changes but that's the exception, not the norm. If Chrome updates revert settings to default with any degree of regularity (I actually don't know if they do, I haven't really touched Chrome in ten? years) that's either gross incompetence or sheer malice.

Honestly, I'm amazed by the hatedom for Starfield. It's ... a Bethesda game (and it's actually better at being a Bethesda game than Fo4). I'm not sure what people seem to have expected?

Considering that OP's teachers apparently beat their students (or at least stand idly by while their colleagues do), I'd argue that they do not deserve one ounce of respect.

As someone with a competitive sports background (swimming), yeah, no. This shit would get you disqualified and, if repeated, banned from competition for life in most sports. It's not a necessary part of any competition.

Make your own instance then. As long as you're using a service someone else provides for you (free of charge at that), you have to play by their rules.

No Kompromat needed, just PiS doing PiS things. Poland banned imports of Ukrainian grain (because PiS has a largely rural support base and the farmers don't appreciate the competition), Ukraine filed a complaint with the World Trade Organisation, so now the Polish government is throwing what in political science is called a tamper tantrum.

Kindergarten. But my parents never really cared. I was told "know your audience" not "don't say that".

Imagine having that little understanding of how and why people enjoy modding their games.

The engine is what allows the game to have a thriving modding community already.

Und es ist trotzdem kein rein digitales Ticket geworden. Ich hab zum Beispiel ne Chipkarte von der BVG, einfach weil der nicht im blödesten möglichen Moment der Akku ausgehen kann.

Wenn du kein Handyticket willst, dann musst du dir auch keins zulegen. Gibt genug Verkehrsverbünde die dir nach wie vor physische Tickets verkaufen, und da das Deutschlandticket bundesweit gültig ist ist es völlig egal ob dein lokaler Verbund das nicht tut.

I know it is, developers can block downloads unless the user is signed into a Steam account that owns the game. But as an end-user that's distinction without difference.

That's even worse though. Plenty of games (e.g. Stellaris and RimWorld) are also available on platforms like GOG or, ugh, Epic. But if you want to use mods and you bought the game on any platform other than Steam it's fuck you.
