https://www.pcworld.com/article/3245810/security/how-to-protect-your-pc-meltdown-spectre-cpu-flaws.html That was an intel and amd failure.. can't really blame Microsoft on this one... (they are responsible for many issues but not this one) They updated it right away as well as Apple and even Linux... however, the update is going to seriously slow down your rigs. From what I hear, it does work (the updates from the OS manufactures) if you updated it. Since windows 7 is still supported along with win 8 and 8.1 those should have updates as well. Also, you should check to be sure you have the latest bios and chip updates as well to be as secure as possible. On that subject, I am not sure (can't find) if they (the processor manufactures) have corrected that issue in their processors for the newest gen processors (Rizen 2nd gen and intell's 9th gen) Doubt it so doesn't matter what you run until that is fixed. The machine I am using currently is Win10 and I haven't had any "real" issues with it. I have however searched many reg edits to resolve any issues I wanted control over and turn off functions I wanted to turn off. Went to it as some software I wanted to use wasn't working well with the Windows 7. https://www.ghacks.net/2016/11/08/improve-windows-10-with-one-click-batch-files/ https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/4189-turn-off-fast-startup-windows-10-a.html ^ to be as complete as possible. .. the example sight I used. I used more that that. Lots of work which SUCKS but Had to do that with Vista as well as Windows 7 to a much lesser degree (almost perfect ) Some fixes are just preferences and others are more dangerous command line fixes and alterations. Windows 10 is pretty much dropped right on Windows 7 from what I can see. Many of the old admin tools are still there just hidden (requiring a command or such) to gain access. Haven't used the "disable automatic updates for windows " option on the above site (reg edit) myself. Not sure if it works well. I restrict it and manually handle it as needed and haven't had an issue ... yet.

There are other issues with different manufactures... the problem occurred before with older OSs but mostly was rare. Now with windows continuing on without waiting and changing and forcing updates and such this will only happen more. There were some issues with another computer that someone that i know had. When it updated.. a previously working wireless stopped working.. the solution? Remove it and replace it! that was the solution as the hardware wasn't part of Windows support and/or it wasn't being updated anymore. I can't remember what it was. As for Linux.. even if a mass amount of people leave and take their code with them.. that just means no more updates but for the most part the code is pretty solid. If a couple here and there leave, someone else will just step up and do work. I know of someone that was working on some power components a year ago to make it more streamlined. Not sure if it was for personal use or he intended to release it publicly... (or if it would even be accepted) however, there are lots of people doing *stuff* with Linux and coding. It is open source so those with the talent can verify any new code for security and update it if needed. The up side that Windows and Mac doesn't have that Linux has is security against massive data mining. (sometimes Linux will data mine depending on what you install so you have to be smart about what you do and install but it isn't default or part of the core system... other than what Umbuntu did a few years ago and backed down) Keep in mind that most the internet servers and stuff is running on Linux. If someone takes that code.. you can be sure someone will be creating a replacement. QUICKLY!!!!! Might slow down somethings but the more I use it and the more I learn about it... the More I want to use it and feel confident with it. Learning now, fixing problems and learning how to do things. Would be using it more but the laptop I have it in has an very old wifi adapter and I get shit internet signal where I want my desk to be at good enough to do somethings but not as fast as my main rig. (literally right below the desk) another thing that makes me confident Linux will not be effected like some are fearful (and SJWs wish it to be) is many in the industry has seen the add ons and what is being done and now are removing themselves from that (what was original proposed by SJWs) and added in its place a much more reasonable process. SJWs fucked with the wrong thing... Most users, and coders aren't stupid fucks... They see the shit and will (naturally ) change it to something more reasonable and sensible. On the otherhand... Microsoft (and Apple to a degree) is getting more and more fucked in the head with the shit they want to and are trying to do.

January 14th 2020 support for Windows 7 will end. No more updates from Microsoft. It WILL then become much more insecure than Windows 10 if you have any critical task (security concerns) If not then it is great to continue with windows 7. That is until Steam or some other service decides not to support it because Microsoft isn't supporting it... Discord doesn't support it anymore (features like spell correct) for example and more sill surly come. The best advice is to move to Linux for your important stuff. (run a vm of windows whatever you want version when needed) and only use Windows for any games that require windows... (since many games do work on Linux with some of the advancements they made) Steam even streams the games to a laptop etc if you have a good enough network You can sit a rig with a great graphics card somewhere on your network / home and just turn it on when needed and stream it to your 200 dollar laptop lol (I did that to one of the newer tomb raiders. I forget the version now.) had some issues but that was the network not the process. If your rig is a monster... and you want to have two graphics cards in there you can even VM directly in the same machine and have a windows game install and have native access if you use "pass through" feature and your motherboard and hardware supports it. There are some i know that do this. (AMD 8 core 4/4 Linux/Windows ) The point of my post is we will be dragged kicking and screaming into Windows 10 or beyond eventually if we continue to play games. There are solutions and I advise people to start to think of those. Support for game managers like Steam and Origin (not sure of Gog don't use it. at least yet ;)) as well as tools like Discord and likely other management tools will start to drop support for Windows 7 much like they have for windows xp... Best to make a plan and start working on a solution that you can stand.

Well if that happens. that would mean that right before or during (surprise event you won't know when) the game will have to do an update... for something not critical or something just to break your flow ...

WTF... that shit is starting to get scary. Just a short time ago they (robots) couldn't even walk properly. This robot (different version) has video where it is walking in the woods in the snow... Jumping over a long and now the latest revision... doing a flip... Many people can't even do a flip Where will it end... Now a days 6m illion isn't so costly.

I was thinking about what you said there... and thought to myself... Bethesda is doing a good thing. A very good thing. A good thing for all those gamers that can't play regular MMOs like Over-watch or the Destiny franchise or the like... Those that get pawn'd the very second they start on the lowest levels. Those that have to spend 100's of dollars to get all the best stuff... only to have their ass handed to them from a 13 year old girl that just started the game a few days prior. Bethesda is doing the world a great public service.. providing a MMO for all those that can't play any other MMO.. god bless Bethesda for this.

The next game will likely be or at least try to be, completely behind the CC paywall. Bethesda only mod manager and tied directly to Bethesda. (as much as they can however, I am confident that someone will hack that quick enough) Not sure if they will MAKE IT A REQUIREMENT or not.. (EULA etc) I believe legally they can. They seem to be moving in that direction. As for fans, they are using the broadest formula possible. Fallout 4 was met with lots of praises from customers... many loved it... the issue was the "fans' didn't Bethesda doesn't seem to care about the "Fans" but more about the customers and their praises. If there are a bunch of MMO loving simpletons that want a simple point and shoot and something more "casual" in a RPG and watered down until it isn't an RPG anymore and it cost them less to produce.. they will build it each time. They have the assets (what they used in the game) they have the talent.. (won't take much to build a basic empty or near empty world with some key players in it. Should be less than what it cost to create a new game... even more so if they recycle what they used already from previous games. They are mostly afraid or don't fully realize this can satisfy their fans.. providing a world (provided with tools ... good tools to build and do our thing) and make them money. I doubt anybody that liked the old Fallout games wouldn't spend money on the next release the day of or at least the week of if the game was excellent and fulfilled the fans requirements. o'l reliable should be a no contest sell .. cash machine and they aren't using it as that. As Trump would say.. "So Sad" lol.

I mentioned a RPG world... Which would need lots of radiant quest and such and such for it to work. Much like what happens when you start using an alt mod in a Bethesda game. (but better :D) DLC modules, CC content (actual REAL CONTENT!!!!!) which could be added to expand it. Add a faction, add quest-lines etc etc. Bethesda wants a money train and they aren't doing this is baffling. No instead they will re release Skyrim yet again just a short time after it was released. Next thing you know they will be releasing Morrow wind and other games. .. again. no updates or such just some "god rays" or something added to the engine ... at least they gave it to us for free if we owned the previous version. Gotta complement them on that.

The problem is Bethesda is both lazy and money grabbing. Not lacking creativity.. if they wanted to do such a thing they can get the talent to do so. I believe they are limiting and forcing much of what we see has changed in the older games to the final one we have Fallout 4. Testing the waters and making it more and more simple so they can get the job done faster and faster and in the end cheaper. No need for talented writers to write various stories.. just have some interns or new hire to create the radiant quest and some random person to follow the guides given to him to make the main quest. I'd be happy if they just created a RPG world with all the settings and some radiant quest (which could be updated through their damn CC crap or authors etc) and allow an more open world environment. Less main quest and more general play and exploration. One hand it would be more boring but on the other hand, it would be more interesting in many ways and different from what we have currently. They already have all the assets for Skyrim or Fallout 4 to do this. just need some location and such.

That would work as well. At least until the SJWs get involved and start to complain about the hooker's employment..

Legalize weed for all with subsidies for those that can't afford it. Add Viagra for those that need it.. (subsidies ) Then nobody will give a fuck

It is only a problem if you want to be a Supreme Court Judge... or something like that. lol.

It could have been a limited rights IP (time scope, medium ... for example video games not movies)

they might have had a license to one game and not the other two. The document from the Lawyers seem to point to that direction. They don't seem so interested in the money that was made from the first, mostly the second and third. Also, who licensed the Netflix version? CDProject Red? Did they sell a right to the video.. if so there will be even more trouble if there is any grounds for this law suit. He should have demanded both a lump sum and a % which was offered. Also made sure the language was very solid on how many and how much they could do with the IP (one game, two games etc) so that if there was a profit later he could have reworked the contract for each as needed. What an fucking idiot..

It is due to the mods that make Skyrim so popular and valuable. Pure and simple. Even though CD Project Red, does have and allow modding it is complex to do and implement and limited. More so than Bethesda's games. They (CD Project Red) hasn't shown a willing ness to open up their engine and tools enough to gain that level of modding of their games in the past and I doubt they will in the future. So, you would have a game if they created it, that you would see beauty and richness and pretty much be stuck with some basic scripts and texture changes etc. (as far as I know there isn't any animation tools to add to the game for Witcher among others) so even if you wanted to work hard at modding your new Skyrim replacement, and others wanted to create content for it... it would be greatly limited. Sad but true. I wish that Bethesda would just release a world based on FAllout and Skyrim with strong tools to mod and work on then let the modding community develop the game further. None of this you are father / mother bullshit.. chasing water chips or father nonsense. just a completely open world. space. (large) fully functional space... (they can add to it worlds and such from the other games assets) The interesting things is they wouldn't hae to do much to do this.. they have the assets and tools and such just need to tweak it a slight bit and create the landscape./world. a few buildings and interesting things to explore. Nothing more than random encounters and assets to start. The rest would be gamer development..

She was supposed to get on some people nerves, it was her character. (at least the acting part.. not sure if you are saying that due to her voice or other aspects ) Liara was awesome... I enjoyed the scene where she confronted some businessmen or something with a thread of commandos and what they do. Shame I can't find a clip on the web about that... She sounds so soft and nice then goes off.. lol. That would be cool, then all they would need to worry about is the voices.. much more flexibility with the story and actors..
