that’s not a fair comparison because pc has people who running on hardware worse than a ps3.
This is a benefit of using PC, not a downside. Unlike consoles, you aren’t forced to upgrade every few years and you actually have the ability to change graphics settings. Even if you want to upgrade your PC, you don’t need to get an entirely new build.
That’s also missing the fact that plenty of people don’t need or want to play the latest AAA title.

I can’t wait to vote him out of office. He has done little for the state, and clearly doesn’t give a shit.
I like how he said intimidation is the tactic they’re using (while calling them fascists) and in the same breath says the protesters should be arrested. He’s literally complaining about fascism while supporting it himself.
DNS is literally distributed by design. It’s how it works. Even if a deployment was done for some reason, it would not take more than a single engineer (an engineer really isn’t even necessary for this, because again, it’s built into DNS).
That is not what they do, though. Just because a non standard configuration is possible doesn’t mean that’s the best thing to use. DNS, by design, uses authoritative nameservers, which is what cloudflare and quad9 host. These authoritative hosts distribute their records to caches (usually just recursive DNS resolvers) to ease and distribute the load. It’s literally in all of their documentation, and explained in pretty plain english on their pages.
Much of the Quad9 platform is hosted on infrastructure that supports authoritative DNS for approximately one-fifth of the world’s top-level domains, two root nameservers, and which sees billions of requests per day.
When a record is updated in your domain (or cloud) provider, it is distributed via an authoritative nameserver hosted by that company. These get distributed to the root name servers, which then distribute the records to other authoritative nameservers.
I don’t know why you’re arguing over this, when it’s one of the first things you learn in information systems and networking. Sure, there’s a lot of stuff for the infrastructure. But the way DNS works on these hosts is still the same, and blocking a single record is not difficult and does not take extra engineering effort. The authoratative hosts simply change their records and it’s done. DNS takes care of the rest.
What you said here is not really on topic, but it is literally part of DNS. I already explained it in my other comment, but here:

but then once you’ve thousands of servers running the same piece of software across the globe deploying updates and features becomes way slower and way harder. You’ve to consider tests, regressions, a way to properly store and sincronize the blocklists across nodes etc…
This is what we’re trying to explain to you, this is how DNS works. Those thousands of servers? Recusrive DNS resolvers, ran by Cloudflare. All watching and caching the records from Cloudflare’s authoritative nameservers in near real time, because that’s how it was designed. You don’t need to test for regressions, figure out how to properly store and synchronize the “blocklist” (it’s not a blocklist, it’s changing a domain record or simply using a CNAME to point to the registrar) or whatever else, because DNS is continuous, and it was designed to do what you’re describing, in the 90’s.
Yes, if you’re updating your infrastructure, you’d want to test. But this isn’t that.
Ever ran into an expired domain and thought about how the registrar can just park an expired domain and make it an ad for themselves? That’s just them adding a CNAME in their authoritative nameservers, which gets distributed globally. The prior delinquent owner can still be hosting, but because they don’t have the authoritative nameserver they can’t use the domain anymore.
They can, because that’s how DNS works. This is why when you update a record for your domain it’s updated globally in near real time with multiple providers. I don’t know how else to tell you that it already works this way. I work in the cloud, and deal with this stuff on a daily basis.
You’re clearly going keep nitpicking and changing the subject to things that don’t matter and you’re not willing to learn. Your misunderstanding of the fundamentals of DNS is no longer my issue.
Hating a billionaire for causing the world to be a worse place is not “obsessing over wealth”. That’s quite literally just bootlicker rhetoric to shield the billionaire class. Fuck all billionaires, but especially Musk.
There are so many better options out there that don’t encourage the board to keep a racist, sexist, rightwing nut job in charge. It’s not 2018 anymore, I encourage you to take a look at other options.
The last uber I was in was a Tesla (a Model Y) and it felt like the door was going to come off when I closed it. Not to mention the lack of buttons and the fact that you have to turn your body 45° and look down to see your current speed. Is that really the “best electric car on the market”? I really don’t think you’d be saying that if you were actually willing to explore the market and leave the walled garden.
Yeah, I doubt that, seeing the rest of your comments here and seeing your post history. Maybe in 2018?
Anyway, sure, keep supporting a racist, sexist, rightwing man child. Even if they were “the best electric cars” on the market (they really aren’t), I would avoid them just because of Musk. I wouldn’t be able to publicly display the fact that I gave my money to a blood emerald mine owner’s racist, sexist nepo baby.
I hope your ignorance never wanes so that you can continue to live in your fantasy land. 🙏

OW1 was so much better, and I can guarantee they would’ve made more money from that model over OW2’s BS. The change to 5v5 unbalanced the entire game and required significant map changes.
It boils down to greed; some MBAs in the company were absolutely convinced that they’d make more money from this new model. Their greed sunk the whole game. Classic Blizzard.
I installed NetGuard about a month ago and blocked all internet to apps, unless they’re on a whitelist.

Lots of apps straight up didn’t work, that was the main thing. The other thing was I had to use a VPN app to block app network access, something that is a built in feature of Graphene. Further, Graphene has much more built in security features including actually using secure boot.
I still would be very surprised if this were the case. Unfortunately it seems that OxygenOS does not have public repositories to actually check the source code (!), but there are apps that will actually show you all of your installed packages and I bet one of those would show that it’s installed.
I agree, and would say that 90% of my apps are. But there’s a few (mostly banking related) that I can’t pass up since the mobile websites are unusable.
