Quoting: UltraVioletI wonder if there will be a paid version for more / unlimited data? Makes sense and I’ll happily pay it.
I wonder if this feature will come to mobile as well at some point?

Mozilla had Mozilla VPN for a while

Nice, I've this one on my wishlist for my Steam Deck. Guess I'll have to check it out during the eastern holidays :)

Quoting: JarmerIn the end it doesn't matter. Smart kids will ALWAYS find a way to get around stuff like that.

In fact, I want my kids to problem solve.

I've put in about four-hours so far with only one issue: the voice audio stopped playing about an hour in even though all other sound effects continued to play. Restarting the game fixed it, and I haven't encountered it since. I did switch to Proton Hotfix, so maybe that made the difference? I have no idea.

Split View and Tab Notes sound nifty.

Quoting: tomascTo me, this feels like yet another case of certain people manufacturing drama.

We're not talking about a developer blindly using AI to generate code they don't understand and then pushing it out to users unchecked. This is a developer who knows what he is doing, uses AI as a tool to speed things up, and reviews the output. In that context, AI isn't replacing skill, it's supporting it.

As for the broader impact of AI on us as computer enthusiasts: yes, it's significant, and not all of it is positive. Hardware shortages and rising prices are definitely frustrating. But this isn't new. We've seen the same pattern before, whether it was laptops, crypto mining, or data centers driving up demand and prices. Every major tech wave creates temporary disruption before the industry adapts.

If someone's truly concerned about environmental impact or rising costs, there are straightforward ways to respond: stop wasting energy by playing PC games on demanding hardware, buy a energy efficient notebook second hand, and only use it for what you absolutely need.

The only thing AI is seed up are the Ram, SSD, HHD and Chip prices.NVIDIA has booked all available slots in contract manufacturing just to control the chip market. Just to push their AI garbage. Prices are exploding and hardware is being hidden. Try buying RAM, SSDs, or HDDs. But go ahead and defend their AI god. AI is the downfall. https://de.euronews.com/next/2026/02/28/studie-ki-chatbots-kriegssimulationen-atombombe . But heil the AI 🤮

Quoting: wintermuteI recently stopped using regular Opera on EndeavourOS because video playback stopped working properly. Does the gaming version require the same codec workarounds?

wrong ffmpeg codec?

The split view sounds interesting. The free VPN "somewhere" sounds like a bag of *thing I can't write in a family friendly comment*. While the browser is one thing, trusting Mozilla with anything external to it hasn't been in my plans for a long while. Them saying "we're not peeking, and we're not logging anything, honest!" have as much value as the next "FreeEdgeLordzVPN" saying the same thing.

Makes me wonder . . . like, who actually chooses the "chosen one"? It always seems to be pretty vague.
(calls over barmaid)
"Matilda, could we get a couple more pints? And also, could you choose me?"
"Choose you? Told you last week I'm not interested. I think you've had enough already, dearie."

Quoting: Linux_RocksRemember when you had to pay for Opera back in the day and it was a worthy alternative? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Remember when stupid gimmicky web browsers weren't everywhere either? Pepperidge Farm also remembers.

I'm going to be so disillusioned the day I find out that Pepperidge Farms doesn't actually remember any of the stuff.

Quoting: Wolfgang RoseThese days I always checkout 'who owns' a particular software. I checked out 'Opera Norway' and noted that the company was floated on the NASDAQ, ergo it will have lots of American investors and will likely cater to US tastes and business norms. In my experience as a developer/tester/project manager, I know most US firms will make all the noises to comply with GDPR, but will often breech intentionally as 'part of business'.

To American corporations, "The Law" is just a tax on doing what they want anyway. A small tax.

A damn shame that they never brought Gran Turismo 7 or MLB: The Show to PC. MLB forced them to go multiplatform on consoles and should really force them to release it on PC too.

Quoting: sanInteresting! Thus far I’ve been using GPU-X for this purpose.

Thanks for this, @san, but don't you mean CPU-X?

Oops, yes indeed 😅 Corrected!

Split view is actually a good use for high resolution and/or ultrawide screen real estate.

Grabbed this off my wishlist as the update on Steam mentioned they'll be raising the price for their next update and that this is the best time to grab the game on sale before the price increase. Thanks for the coverage !

It is so that while you're sitting in your gaming chair in front of your gaming computer, with all its illuminated gaming keyboard and gaming mouse and gaming mouse pad, sipping your gaming drink and wearing your gaming garb that you might desire to browse gaming information on the web.

And what better to do that than with a gaming browser!

Quoting: Eocene84Would never, ever trust a free vpn.

You should never trust ANY VPN. With all the censorship laws going on the books all over the world, it shouldn't come as a surprise that every single VPN will cave when the authorities come knocking.

It is one thing to use a VPN to hide your actuall illegal actions, but these days watching a video not available in your region or with the "wrong" content might land you in jail!

I expect most of the people here could instead spin up a VPS in a non-compliant country and run their own VPN for a couple dollars a month.

Quoting: Wolfgang RoseIt looks impressive, but its NVIDIA... I'm on a 4070 at the moment and my upgrade cycle is 3-5 years away based on what I play. This will be my last NVIDIA card though, I'm not going to support a company that is actively trying to kill the pass-time I have had almost entire life.

Yep. I'm still on a 1060 and finally hitting the point where I need to upgrade soon. I've always been a GeForce guy, but not anymore. The build I start within the next few months will definitely contain a Radeon.

Thank you for mentioning Danger Zone! I feel like I'm the only one hoping for it to come back 💔

So let's look a little closer. This update claims "privacy first". So it gives you a VPN of nebulous origin... which will be a middle man for all your actual data... uh huh. Next they are slapping an AI spy window over the whole browser window to middle man all your interactions... uh huh.

So where's the fucking privacy mozilla? I shouldn't feel more confident in my privacy using a chromium based browser like Vivaldi than I do in the "privacy first" flagship mozilla browser, yet here we are.
