This is wrong, torrenting is mostly caught by reviewing the peers list of torrents with infringing content, not analyzing the traffic. Only a VPN (or Seedbox) masks your IP, or alternatively private trackers are rare to get monitored.

The real fair pricing would've been to only charge for the credits you actually use.

My first reaction was "ew" and after reading into the reasons I still don't agree but I respect it. I'm a bit thrown off by there not having been any discussion of this before if it has been "ongoing for months", though I'm mostly a lurker and maybe I have just missed it.

It honestly looks and feels so wrong but fuck it we ball I guess.

After getting a Steam Deck my Switch is just collecting dust and that even though I would still like to play on it since it's a lot lighter and more portable. Unfortunately it's just a horrible deal to buy games locked to one platform at a higher price than their PC counterpart without getting any of the benefits (modding, free cloud saves across devices).

I'm only willing to buy the switch version if I really want to support the developers e.g. Celeste or Stardew Valley.

Played Half Life 2 for the first time in my life at 25, 10/10 perfect game.

I'm quite thankful there's so many people willing to pay the full price to beta-test so I can later get it for 90% off with all bugs and performance issues fixed.

Neither do according to their respective docs.

Personally though I would've preferred an updated* test with more realistic hardware and zstd compression enabled cause this tested configuration is pretty rare in the real world.

* Their last btrfs compression benchmark was on Linux 4.11 in 2017 it seems, on a 120 GB Sata SSD.

It works until you wanna search for something that's somewhat similar to a common word. The other day I wanted to look for a discussion I've had about OpenAL, went to search for it and it showed everything with the word "open" in it. There's no further control so you're just at the mercy of what the search thinks you want, and this happens way too often.
