Does anyone know if there's a way to use Steam Remote Play without PIN pairing?

I'm away from home for weeks and only brought my weak ass Macbook Neo, but forgot to pair Steam's remote play before I left.

My desktop at home runs SteamOS and has Wake-on-LAN. So I can power it on, and it shows up my Neo's Steam client, I can hit "Stream" on a game, but then it gives me a pop up telling me to enter the PIN on the host computer (which I cannot retrieve).

How the heck can bypass this requirement? Is it even possible without physical access?

I live alone, my family aren't even in the same town as me. I do have a wireguard VPN to my home, but unfortunately there's no ssh or similar enabled on the system.

why is it that i still feel like skyrim from 2011 had better TAA than all of these modern games?

I remember people complaining about Skyrim's TAA causing some ghosting. But modern games are 10x worse. They ghost like hell and also seem to introduce more blur than skyrim's TAA.

Yesterday I got some government survey about how many kids households want, but I broke it simply by saying I didn't want kids.

The first two questions were basically "How many kids do you have?" and "How many kids do you want?", textboxes accepting only numbers. Leaving it at "0" broke all the remaining questions.

Got served like twenty questions along the lines of "You said you wanted ZERO kids, but you actually only have ZERO kids. What would say was the leading factor preventing you from having ZERO kids?"

Sending out a survey asking how many kids I want, then not planning for a single person to answer "None" is honestly an impressive lack of foresight.

The Bleach TYBW Part 3 Blu-ray is a bit of a funny accessibility catastrophe.

Every Bleach TYBW part has a specific accent color. Part 1 was magenta, Part 2 was cyan. The european publisher (All The Anime) decided at the start to make their blu-ray releases be "<accent color> on black".

Unfortunately for them, when we got to Part 3, it turns out its accent color was... black.

Yet the absolute fucking MADLADS actually just went ahead and printed the part 3 blu-ray with its color scheme being black on black.

You can BARELY tell there's something printed on there, only because the printed parts reflect slightly more light at the correct angle. I managed to get a somewhat visible photo of the front, wasn't as lucky with the spine.

I wonder if it's possible to turn a remarkable tablet into a good e-reader. i know it's shit by default because the only thing you can do is clumsily "import" PDF files or epubs to read. but maybe there's some third party software i can put on one.

since remarkable is a norwegian brand they're really common here and you can buy them at most electronics stores. but this also means a shitload of people buy them and regret it. being able to get a seemingly brand new remarkable 2 for sub-300€ isn't too difficult, even with a folio case and pen included.

remarkable tablets are the one thing the used market is real good at here. it's kinda like treadmills on facebook marketplace. everyone buys one thinking "hell yeah! i'll quit paper" then end up flipping it for half the price after 3 months
