https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2018/12/bethesdas-attempt-to-fix-a-fallout-76-blunder-leaks-angry-shoppers-pid/ Actually important to read if you yourself have made a claim for the replacement Canvas Bag. Bethesda made it so everybodies information is viewable by everyone else making a claim. I went on the support website today to update a ticket of mine, and surprisingly (or not...) I ended up being able to see all sorts of tickets, with people putting their personal information in them, like receipt screenshots, names, addresses, and so on. I'm assuming this is a bug in the website, because I don't see for what reason Bethesda would make tickets public. People could also edit each others support tickets.

Posted by jjndigMicrosoft switched to cumulative update packages for Windows 7 and 8 so I imagine the security updates are rolled up in to it making it an all or nothing proposition.

How did Westwood handle copy protection for Red Alert 2 and Tiberian Sun? The game does some funky stuff with the CD during gameplay instead of reading the disc like normal if it was simply playing a music file.

You could underclock the CPU instead of cleaning dust, if you wanted. Also most games that use a wait loop don't cause the CPU to heat up much, since it's barely a work load. The game must be doing something in addition to that (or some weird interaction with it and Wine).

I've been watching videos of ProJared play through Smash Ultimate's adventure mode and jeezus christ the game spends a huge amount of time in loading screens. Why does it have to reload the entire level when you Retry? It should be simply respawning everyone at the correct health percentage and statuses... I might stop after this second video and keep the rest of adventure mode unspoiled.

Posted by ScrewtapeYeah you could tweak some cookies to work around the issue but it'd undo it self after a while... cool to see an add-on automate the process. A shame you can't have the new Youtube & the performance but ah well, at least there's a good dark theme for the old Youtube design (note how the description for it now has steps to manually do what the add-on you mentioned does). Edit: Also the old website design is compatible with more of the Enhancer for Youtube add-on's features.

Played the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for a few hours now and there's a few things that have bothered me in the game. 1) When quitting a game mode after playing the game for a while you may be faced with a "new challenger approaches" event. This adopts the controller configuration & chosen fighter that was most recently used and gives you no opportunity to change it. This is bad because Amiibo's Smash mode uses the default No Name controller configuration and chooses a fighter for you to play as. So you're stuck with the default No Name controller configuration and whatever character you were playing as when the New Challenger Approaches event happens (I have no clue if the No Name controller configuration can be renamed). This ruins the fun of these events a little. 2) For a game that's all about pressing a certain direction & buttons to perform moves, it's mind blowing that they still don't let you use a DPad for controlling the character (It's relegated to Taunts). I get nowhere near the level of combat precision I'd otherwise be able to achieve because of this limitation. Often when trying to do an aerial recovery it treats me as doing a side-special attack and the analog stick is in general not very good at reading what direction I'm thinking I'm pressing the analog stick in. With a DPad it's super easy to tell what direction you're pressing at any given moment. 3) After my first experience with gameplay, quitting to the main menu resulted in a barrage of screens with zero context. It showed me unlocking a bunch of stuff for no apparent reason (maybe it did say it within the text) and then I got taken to a wallpaper gallery... took a moment to realize it was a Challenge list (it defaulted to showing a zoomed in image from the wall of images). I hadn't been to the Challenge list before hand so I didn't know it was a thing. I wasted my first 3 uses of the unexplained Hammer ability on the Challenge screen revealing what I thought was just pieces of artwork (I would've used them on the seemingly more challenging challenges if I knew what was going on in the first place). In addition to there being no explanation for the hammer it does have text mentioning I need to obtain a number of "tiles" whatever those are to unlock another use of the Hammer. 4) The game doesn't explain the rewards screen at the end of combat in Spirit Mode. You can't hover over the reward items to read something about them, it's just a wall of poorly explained pictures and you're somehow meant to know what it all is. 5) The menus are slow to navigate compared to the Wii, Gamecube and N64 games. Most menu transitions have a loading screen. AMD Ryzen 3700X | MSI Gamer Geforce 1070Ti 8GB | 16GB 3600MHz DDR4 RAM | ASUS Crosshair VIII Hero (WiFi) Motherboard | Windows 10 x64 |

Powershell is annoying, it needs some commands to be prefixed with .\ and you also need to run some specific command before you can execute a PowerShell script with the necessary privileges (can't just run Powershell as an Administrator). this string will just display an Open With dialog box for a blank (no name) file. Does anybody know how to get that command to actually work?

Dammit, it seems the Bloodborne servers are offline (Australia), or at least I can't sign in to the games Online Mode. Every network Status website Sony hosts says everything should be working fine... Edit: Seems like it might be an ISP issue? Or even a modem issue, had various internet issues which seemingly resolved themselves after power cycling the modem.

I guess I can see the appeal. It's still beyond stupid that Steam ticks the "remember my payment details" option by default. Currently if you don't want them to save your details you gotta untick the option every, single, god, damn, time you make a purchase. Those that don't care or do want their details saved don't need to do anything special. If the default was reversed than those that don't want them to save their details don't need to do anything and those that do will only have to tick the box ONCE during the entire life of their account.

How do you stop websites from overwriting "open in a new tab" behaviour? For example https://www.catch.com.au/ will convert such commands to a "Open" command, causing middle mouse button clicks to open a link in the current tab... which is very frustrating.
