280: Pay-to-Reject Cookies Should Be Illegal

Episode Summary

We've got a generous helping of questions for our Q&A this month, so hop right in and listen as we discuss a wide array of topics like immutable operating systems and getting fancy with Windows partitions, whether Proton would have helped Stadia succeed, using social media without being used by social media, daily-driving a NUC, Steam programs that add frame gen and upscaling to older games, why everyone says "uplift" so much, and when you should absolutely, positively stop putting off upgrading your devices.
