It doesn't do anything except divorce the accounts.

Anyway to disable the popup?

I have ublock configured to block it.

Possibly I was fairly young at the time so I don't remember it well. But it was great that it worked. We all brought our xboxes to our Friends place who had the internet. Rare at the time where I was and we used that tool to take on the world as a small team. I remember their older brother was supervising us and helped get everything working.

So it depends. For example some legacy apple stuff had a bad DHCP implementation where it would try to hold onto an IP address it had before.

When there's one DHCP server with a reserved ip it won't assign that ip to the wrong device. (Unless you're running some buggy software that takes your configuration as suggestions)

Where the advice to set it anyways comes from scenarios where that DHCP server goes down for long enough that everyone starts self assigning addresses. It's a real hassle to find the correct system when that happens.

Would be nice to play resident evil without tank controls and goofy workarounds

I remember when people did something similar for Xbox live. It was the only way I could play halo 2 with people. Love projects like that.

Is this meant to be something like snap?

Wait till the Y2K38 event occurs.

The reason is simply the developer has failed to understand that iOS 15 is still supported by Apple.

It's not hard to target the older models, with iOS it's mostly just a few small tweaks.

Hey careful there, the iPhone 6s and newer still receive security updates. Just not feature updates on the really old models.

Well that's 30mins of my life I won't get back. Hilarious clicker game.

Are you familiar with the paperclip problem?

The idea that if you task a sufficiently advanced AI with making paperclips it'll inevitably turn the universe into a collection of paperclips when that is its only goal.
