Oh god, I used to work IT for a company that had a European office so users getting documents set to A4 was not unusual. The problem came when they tried to print one of those documents and the office printer would sit and complain that it didn’t have any A4 available and wouldn’t print anything in the queue until that was fixed. And of course users had no idea there was any difference between letter size and A4.

If you launch a game through Steam and there’s an update available for it, then Steam will force the update before it will run the game. Some games can be run by navigating to its install directory and running the executable directly, that should bypass any updates but will not work for all games.

Bilbo had large, furry feet in the 1977 cartoon, so it’s at least as old as that.

That was pre-enshittification. We are far beyond that point now.

I wonder if there’s a way to obscure IPs on the side of a torrent tracker. Like an inverse VPN.

The torrent protocol is peer-to-peer, all clients connect directly to each other. The tracker is just there to tell how clients to connect to each other, and that requires IP addresses.
