Pretty sure you have another device registered with Authenticator here, and it is asking you to verify against that.

It would be bad if somebody could just steal your username/password and then register their own MFA, right?

Glad to hear I’m not the only person abusing that run dialogue box.

The comic is about RAM, not storage. The 2600 was unique in that it had no RAM and needed to process everything in-between each scan line on the same chip.

It’s like the next version of “beans on toast” 🤣

You gave me flashbacks of the Peter Norton and John McAfee days!

The fact that this is Gene Wilder immediately gets my approval. The Tim Burton / Johnny Depp version of this comic just didn’t hit the same. 😑

Yep. Forever immortalized as one of the original Internet memes, in a good way too.

I’ve seen the same thing. Seems like the new behavior is to just let me login, play, and it will get what it needs in the background and automatically update on next launch.

Makes sense not to bother me to update a 0.1 release change after launch (unless it’s urgent) when I just want to play Tetris.

Isn’t this the same behavior web browsers use? Background download and update on next launch?

Not complaining, I prefer this update cycle as default.

Yeah… no. And looking at the weird framed photo in the background I think this was more for a marketing thing. Perhaps a music band the kids liked back in the day?

Or it’s AI.

I like how this is the future version of getting a send-off by the USS Constitution
