There are quite a few pieces of software that have 2 different branding. For instance the windows file searcher agent ransack also goes by “file locator pro” to keep from scaring the corpos.

Windows laptops absolutelly come pre-installed with the drivers compatible with that system.
Also while hit or miss windows update will install graphics drivers (on a slower cadence than direct from.nvidia/amd) even in a fresh windows install. It’s a common pain point for windows update to mistakenly downgrade your drivers.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Steam to add hardware specs to reviews — optional feature could help you dodge poorly optimized gamesEnglish
3·2 months agoI really hope that it either automatically populates the field or is a one and done type of thing or else people won’t use it.
Also this articles product placement was really weird and jarring to me. 3rd paragraph is basically just an ad read.
The term “ratio’d” originated from twitter at a time when it had neither upvotes or downvotes (it refered to retweets vs comments). Fundamentally any platform that has more content than can be reasonably consumed by one person must have a way of filtering good and bad posts and as soon as you have that you have people who will chase both the good signal and the bad. You get rid of the upvotes and you encourage people comment farming, you see this on some platforms like tiktok where people will intentionally add in minor errors so that a lot of people comment corrections boosting their engagement or in traditional forums where every other comment is “bump”. Personally I think upvotes are the least bad thing to have people fixate on as it has the least number of side effects.
I do agree that upvote begging like this post is parodying is bad though and should be discouraged.

2·3 months agoThis is probably paranoid, but a picture of a key is enough information for someone to clone your key fairly easily, probably not the car keys, but definitely what I assume are your house keys.

1·4 months agoIn Toronto there is a Rogers Center, and then they recently opened a Rogers Arena half way across town, and there are also roger’s X in Vancover and Ottawa. It’s just as annoying as it sounds, made more annoying because rogers is one of the most hated companies in the country.
The most credible source I find credits it to an article by German satirist and journalist, Kurt tucholsky who was supposedly quoting a French diplomat in 1925
