Fat girl bad, noted.

We used to had demo version of games, often made with care. Now we have 2h play on Steam while we can refund, instead.

Devs* learned to make first 2h nice and intense and to scream it’s awesome and the wow effect, and everything later super bland and repetitive. Nice 2h long game may be worthy 8€. 2h long fun and 200h boring fuck is not worthy 80€ the devs request.

As devs I point some devs and often publishers who own dev studio and makes orders too.

I don’t trust the bitches.

If I find whole game fun and worthy the price, can pay even 80€, can put it on the wishlist to buy on promo later, or in extreme cases, even buy few copies for friends includes pricy dlc. IF I find it worthy as whole.

Sure, the keyword is “modern” though we used to talk of 90s’.

Quality teacher!

but, how do they turn PCs off? win-d alt-f4? think win-d was not a thing in early windows… please don’t say by power button.

Much thx for explanation,

Looks like my understanding is valid - it is situational.

With a pointing to, I’ve noted most office workers do have apps pinned, by themselves or IT guy. Often even too many, like 3-4 web browsers lol. Also they rarely work on laptops, but office PCs. At least my country (Europe).

Also, could guess MS or most big tech companies may want users to make common parts used faster, to make them buy new faster :giggle:.

I’m no programmer nor coder or such, I call myself advanced user only.

If having part of an app (I refer app as OS here, and start menu as part of an OS) to spike CPU/memory usage, does that means that part is not being used without being called? and leaves resources fully free? Sure big spike happen when the sub-part is called, but without being called?

IF part of an app is not even loaded while not used, isn’t that actually good? I mean, depends how often that app part is called and have to load from the void.

I imagine that could be better than having unused part loaded all the time, wasting the resources?

Also, I totally skip part of poorly coded compared to old smooth and optimized code.
