That's also why you encrypt your drives. The average enterprise figured out how to let somebody work from an airport long ago. It's really not a huge deal.

Yeah, but their kids don't get to choose not to have shithead parents.
I somehow doubt Austin needed this. Meanwhile, I'm posting this via an ancient DSL connection that barely functions.
I'm excited for Starfield but buying a Bethesda game on release week is probably a bad idea. Let them get a few patches out first.
Assuming Armored Core is as polished as many of these reviews suggest, it might be a great game to tide me over until then.
Eh, I kinda doubt this will be his last mugshot. Although I guess the first will still be most famous.
I thought the advantage of carpooling was saving money on gas and car maintenance. Also, environment.
Probably because they wouldn't see a dime of revenue from this. It would be a new law that just says they have to do it. At best, they would be allowed to pass the costs to customers somehow, likely through our plate registrations at the DMV.
It's basically a no win for the car companies. Lots of ill will, increased chance of litigation, increased costs for building cars, all for nothing.
In fact, I bet the car companies lobbyists are the reason we don't have this already.
Your highschool government class should have covered this. A pure popular vote system is essentially mob rule, and mobs are fucking idiots. The idea is that you vote people into office that are smart, that are trained, that are the best of us.
If this actually works, the next step will be abolishing the two-term limit. "Leave it to the will of the people to decide if they want a dictatorship."
Also renewing license plates/licenses. Basically if you need to make a yearly or monthly payment to keep using something it's a scam in my eyes.
Not sure about where you live, but where I live, that money goes towards road upkeep. That money has to come from somewhere.
Is it? I don't remember seeing a guy running for Congress that promised he'd prevent huge corporations from running rough shod over everything.
People like saying stuff like "just vote better", but the fact is the vast majority of people that run for any office are pro-big business because that's their background and the lobbyists give them lots of money to get elected. Where's the anti-big business guy going to get his money to run? And without money, you sure aren't winning.
Through lobbying, corporations have us all by the balls. It doesn't matter what side of the isle you're on; both sides have basically been endorsed by big money.
Unplayable mess? I never said that. However, more than a few people had game-breaking bugs in Skyrim and had to restart or hope they had a save from far enough back.
Obviously Skyrim was playable enough since it was an immediate critical success. I can't really speak for fallout 4 since I never played it and didn't bother following the news for it.
That being said, there are memes older than some people on lemmy equating Bethesda and bugs. They've earned their reputation, but good and bad.
