That really depends on the service you're looking at and what your needs are. Google probably offers the best all-round package, but depending on your needs, there are often times good or even better alternatives available.

As far as I know, address completion is supported by almost every alternative. At least I don't know of one which doesn't support that.

The quality of directions not only depends on the product, but also the method of transport you want directions for and the geographic region your targeting. For example, Google is, in my experience, very good for cars, but terrible for cycling. At least in Europe, OSM based maps generally include far more paths and details, which, combined with a good routing engine, results in better routes. I have made very good experiences with OpenRouteService.

For SteetView-like images you're unfortunately pretty much limited to Google or Apple. Mapillary exists, but, as it's crowdsourced, quality and coverage just aren't all that great.

I think that there's a good open alternative for most use cases of embedded maps available, as few of them really need StreetView or traffic-based routing. If that's the case, though, you're unfortunately stuck with Google or Apple.

Someone‘s probably just using those ports wirelessy!

While this is definitely a great read and an interesting attack vector, I think the term „deanonymization“ is stretching it here.

As far as I can see, this attack would only let you determine which Cloudflare datacenter the target has been accessing. This would, in most cases, be one near the target, but it wouldn‘t get you a precise position or any personal information about the target. You‘d just get a pretty unreliable and very large radius of where your target might be.

It‘s also worth mentioning that Monitor anonymizes your data before checking it for breaches.

So there shouldn‘t be any serious privacy issues.

Sorry, I'm not sure if I'm getting your point. I don't think anyone's asking anyone to leave their favorite genre for innovation's sake. I just think these games show, that customers are totally ready to spend money on innovative games, even if they're certainly rarer than less innovative titles. So I find it hard calling consumers risk adverse, in general.

I think they're just adverse to games which aren't fun, which could arguably be more common with more innovative titles, but, seeing Ubisoft's downfall over the past few years, I'd argue that samey, "safe" games seem to be very low the average consumer's fun scale as well.

I think that isn‘t really the case though, is it?

Sure, there are those, who just play the latest Call Of Duty each year. But the success of very innovative games like Balatro, Papers Please, Vampire Survivors or even Breath of the Wild shows, that many consumers crave innovation, if it turns out to be fun innovation.

This also shows that these games can be found and appreciated, even if they‘re made by totally unknown people or studios.

Yup. It‘s from the Cave Johnson Announcer Pack reveal video. Which is definitely worth a watch, even if you‘re not into Dota 2.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm not really familiar with using 3rd party plugins on Linux, so I can't make any promises, but I'll look into it! :)

Hehe, thanks for looking through the code, I hope it's somewhat legible. That line is actually almost a year old now. There were two previous iterations of this project which never saw any release (and were mostly made because I wanted to improve my Rust skills). But that function has survived through all of them. I've actually recovered from my joylessness pretty quickly. But hugs are always welcome! :)

Your keybindings won't get overwritten by the app, I'm only putting my bindings into GW2's import path as an XML. So you can back your bindings up in game by exporting them, and then import mine. I think the actual keybindings are stored on GW2's server side, so it's not really possible for me to change them directly.

This is not the case with Steam's controller layouts, though. There, I'm overwriting the current "autosave", so if that isn't backed up beforehand, it might get lost.

That's not really the case, though. Blocking that pipe off doesn't fix any bug, it's just a design choice to tell inventive players that they must solve the puzzle before continuing. Removing that and allowing players to progress without having solved the puzzle in its intended way is just a different design choice. Both are equally valid, in my opinion.

There actually have been quite a lot of bugfixes in the 20th anniversary update, which have an impact on current speedrunning tactics, as can be seen here within the section 20th Anniversary update of Half-Life 2. In the end, it's pretty meaningless anyway, as most speedrunning of Half-Life 2 is done with a pretty ancient version of the game.

Es geht doch in dem Artikel nur darum, möglichst sachlich darzulegen, wie der Plan für die gemeinsame Mediathek der ÖRs aussehen wird und was wann zu erwarten ist. Dass das der zuständige Mitarbeiter schreibt, der sich vermutlich einfach am besten auskennt, sehe ich da wirklich als unproblematisch. Zumal es ja auch in der Kategorie „in eigener Sache“ untergebracht ist.

Dass das ZDF seine Ideen intern für gut befindet, hat nichts mit der Objektivität von redaktionellem Inhalt zu tun, sondern liegt in der Natur der Sache.

Bewertungen solcher Projekte sollte man, glaube ich, einfach immer von unbeteiligten Quellen einholen. Also in diesem Fall weder von den öffentlich Rechtlichen, noch von Medienhäusern, die sich in einem Konkurrenzverhältnis zu diesen sehen.

Ich bin vielleicht über die Jahre sehr pessimistisch geworden, was die SPD angeht, aber ich bin mir sehr sicher, dass die bei dem Thema am Ende der CDU „mit Bauchschmerzen“ zustimmen würden, wenn es dafür für sie eine Regierungsbeteiligung gibt.
