>from features
Absolutely not. No other controller has trackpads and capacitive sticks and grips. Those are much more useful than any of the features third party controllers usually have.
>even the polling rate
That's a fair complaint, but I'd say the SC is still better overall. Plus, I don't think we actually know what polling rate it uses yet, the specs on the website are specifically for the puck, not the controller.
>even durability
Honestly, as long as it's durable enough to not turn into dust when holding it, it doesn't really matter past that. You're not throwing your controller, are you?
>you can't even listen to objective facts
Please provide these objective facts. What controller has better features than the new SC?

You're going to ignore all the built in features such as the extra buttons, wider compatibility as well as the TMR which has a proven track record of being more durable than anything else?
The steam controller was discontinued and not replicated for a reason and no amount of cope is ever going to fucking change that anon
>>
>>107617347
Or maybe I just didn't check for a reply right away?
>the extra buttons
Trackpads, which allow up to 16 actions each, more with multiple action layers, make having 2 or 3 extra buttons irrelevant.
>wider compatibility
The Steam controller works with every single game via Stesm input.
>as well as the TMR
It has TMR retard.
>The steam controller was discontinued and not replicated for a reason
Wait I think we had a misunderstanding. I was talking about the new one. Though now that you brought it up, the first one was discontinued because Valve got sued by a patent troll for having back buttons and were forced to stop selling it.

The only users of value on the entire internet are posting from America and Japan. I already block everyone else on any website I run. We've had no issues with spam since I blocked the rest of the world and there are no bot waves.

The only problem we've had since the block is the random dumb faggot attempting to push tranny/queer propaganda. But they are few and far between and easy enough to ban without worrying about it. They sometimes try to raid but they never have more than 10-20 discord fags coming with them. Easily shadow banned and regulated to a hidden forum where all the mods laugh at them.

Hitler bullshitted a grand story that Jews were pulling the strings behind both capitalism and communism. He presented his natsoc ideology as a path to libertation for a society not controlled by Jews. This is a theme in religions. The claim that both current sides are the same boogie man so trust the enlightened one/cult of personality to escape the matrix. He did point out real critiques of those systems but provided zero evidence that jews were centrally orchestrating both capitalism and or communism. But for a poor German citizen in 1933 hearing that an evil boogie man race is out to destroy your race and way of life provokes a fear tribal loyalty instinct, all thoughts of moral dedegradtion and economic struggles were scape goated on Jews. The ev psych explanation is simple the deepest ethical fears are projected onto a group of millions. Jews were deemed the subhuman group standing in the way of preceived righteousness.

MAGA is only a few steps below Hitler. The U.S constitution and legal system keeps them from excercising absolute power. There are things replublicans want to do but can't do because judges can strike down Trump's rules as the system intended. The most important thing to understand is that Trump's supporters are far more authoritarian then he is. I am not saying this to defend him but Trump is best described as a show man big time hit TV star. He runs the country like a reality show and his biggest fans are authoritarians (aka fascist) and the big time TV star wants to impressive.

I honestly don't think America will descend into full Musolini or Hitler type fascism because of the strong checks and balances and many good people that exist but I do expect to see further dehumanization of hispanics, trans people and others because they are MAGA's outgroup until people just start rebeling and opting out of the US Government. You can't just vote the bums out you have to ignore victimless crime laws and refuse to participate in gov.

Intro S100. It was priced nice at launch, so a used one should be relatively quite cheap for what you get in that board. Try your luck, if anyone's selling I'm sure it'll be in top tier condition.

Fedora 43, I'm on Ampere but accidentally used nvidia-open instead of nvidia module.
I had couple of 'gpu has fallen off the bus' total freezes before I realized something was off. nvidia-open also does not allow to disable gsp firmware.
I needed to force the old nvidia proprietary module by adding some fucking flag
>sudo sh -c 'echo "%_without_kmod_nvidia_detect 1" > /etc/rpm/macros.nvidia-kmod'
Or otherwise it would always use nvidia-open instead and I could not do anything about it.

Consume more! You must update! Don't question it!

Why has no one leaked the source code for Nvidia drivers? Where is the hero we need? Why is nothing ever leaked anymore? Not that it matters. These modern faggots "developing" Linux would refuse to look at the source code for fear of getting black bagged. So much for freedom and people fighting for it eh?

This is not a drill, it's finally confirmed that China has a working EUV prototype since early 2025, it's just undergoing testing and verification right now, expected to enter large scale production by 2028-2030.

>In a high-security Shenzhen laboratory, Chinese scientists have built what Washington has spent years trying to prevent: a prototype of a machine capable of producing the cutting-edge semiconductor chips that power artificial intelligence, smartphones and weapons central to Western military dominance, Reuters has learned. Completed in early 2025 and now undergoing testing, the prototype fills nearly an entire factory floor.

>The availability of parts from older ASML machines on secondary markets has allowed China to build a domestic prototype, with the government setting a goal of producing working chips on the prototype by 2028, according to the two people.But those close to the project say a more realistic target is 2030, which is still years earlier than the decade that analysts believed it would take China to match the West on chips.

>The breakthrough marks the culmination of a six-year government initiative to achieve semiconductor self-sufficiency, one of President Xi Jinping's highest priorities. While China's semiconductor goals have been public, the Shenzhen EUV project has been conducted in secret, according to the people.

There is so much ancient and not even that ancient content that is ONLY available by means of internet piracy. I collect 90s and early 2000s porn and there is no way to find this content other than pirating it. Another case where piracy is the only option is country blocks, especially relating to streaming music or movies or shows.
In a lot of places, there aren't legit options to view the content legally. Anime and manga are a great example of this. Legit English publishers only buy the rights to a fraction of what gets released in Japanese, and for the rest of it the only avenue for reading it in English is piracy.

here's a perfect case for this what your talking about, there is this website that archived VST's it's hosted from 2005 - present

there are some VST's in there with keygens for codes to unlock full versions, at the moment in time the developers might have not made money from their software, but their name definitely was made known by people spreading it.

All of the big websites that just linked to the developers website when downloading are 404'd

That's a problem for multiple reasons, main one is that no one can access it anymore. Locked away , lost to time. Only people able to access it are ones with files on their hard drive.

This website is a very special case, at the moment it might have felt unethical to host the files. like a dagger to the back, felling wrong, but ten years later when absolutely no one is hosting the files, feels like you have a time capsule in your hands.

Now scale up the idea of just VSTs to other software, movies ect... when you come across that website that is hosting it show love bro
>>
>>107612326
But there is a small percentage, like super small chance. you get a virus from cracks, not really something you have to worry about usually. But that's were you have to determine on your on, if this website hosting this is trustable ,and other variables like such
