There is a bit of a chain of trust, however. Instance fills with spam bots? Defed.
Spam bots start making their own instances? Go to whitelists.

And as henfredemars says, because there is no financial incentive to grow the userbase, instances can slow things right down if the spam starts.

Mike Ashley didn’t actually want a game shop, he wanted people spending £70 on each football/COD release, then buying that season’s team strip on the way out of the shop.

It depends on the version of atmos.

Full fat cinema atmos can scale to (iirc) 512 channels. (Things may have changed since I last was involved!)

In that case, it’s a 7.1 bed, and all the other channels are effectively coordinates in the room, and the processor steers objects between them in real time, rather than having defined tracks.

Belfast and Dublin would have been nice.

GreatAlbatross, to world in Chinese police were allowed into Australia to speak with a woman. They breached protocol and escorted her back to China
@GreatAlbatross@feddit.uk avatar

I can’t see how anyone involved with allowing this isn’t complicit.
What possible reason did the police of a foreign nation need to be physically there for, other than physically removing someone?

Hopefully, someone is sitting on a root workaround, and will reveal it once the updates stop.

I’d buy a second hand one, if there was a way to use it without any meta involvement.

Interesting how Microsoft is keen for the transaction to be in their coins. I don’t play on PS, but is it a similar situation?

Absolutely, modern construction is often about not using (/spending) more than the spec requires.

Basic wood will be lower grade because it doesn’t need to be. And it will be cheaper because of that.

C16/C24 will be stronger and less knotty, and will meet a higher spec, for a price.

feddit.uk doesn’t censor anything at the moment, because I accidentally broke the slur regex.

Normally, users from censored instances can still see rude words, they just get removed “in flight” if they try to post anywhere.
