    Do we have a kidsarefuckingstupid community? We should

    Edit: I guess people haven’t heard about the joke sub that posted silly stories about kids doing illogical things. Ya know, kids being kids.

    I’m willing to settle for c/kidsarefuckingadorable if there is no similar community yet

    Has what you said been proven and documented anywhere? All I can find is threads of people claiming things, but no actual (investigative) journalism that covers these parts.

    Toggling on data collection without informing the user would mean billions of dollars worth of fines in Europe, so I doubt that happens regularly. Still, I don’t mind being proven wrong if you got the proof to back it up

    I agree with the general sentiment but it literally says it will update outside of active hours. So as non-disruptive as possible.

    And the privacy toggles are set when you install the OS. You can untick all of them the last time I checked.

    Sorry for being such a pedant



  • We had Nintendo consoles and then I visited a friend who had Far Cry. I was so impressed by the mechanics and details (shooting enemies from under floors, sneaking around like Rambo) that I went home and basically started browsing second hand Xbox consoles to be able to play myself ASAP.

    In the end, I found a cheap Xbox with about 25 games, including Halo, Fuzion Frenzy, Burnout 3, Fable, and so on. The original owner even accidentally left Ninja Gaiden in the console, so I was introduced to that gem on a whim! So lucky.

    I did buy the X360 a bit later in the cycle but after that I was content with a high end gaming PC combined with Wii U. Nowadays I have a PS5, gaming PC and Switch, covering almost all libraries to be able to pick whatever I want to play.

    This shouldn’t be surprising considering most Xbox games are available to play on PC right now. No need to buy an Xbox anymore.
