I think the Special Activation Indicator should come back

I think the Special Activation Indicator should come back

I know you can still see when a teammate activates an special in Splatoon 3, but you have to be looking at that teammate to know. Some specials like Tenta Missiles, Zipcaster or Trizooka can go unnoticed until they have a visual effect post-activation or you happen to see them. At least for SoloQ, it would be very helpful to know whenever a teammate is launching missiles or using a Zipcaster so you can know and pressure the enemy team while those specials are active. Maybe it hasn't been so useful, specially in Splatoon 2 where most specials were very noticeable when activated, and just work with a few Splatoon 3 specials, but if Splatoon 4 features more pressure or displacement specials similar to Inkjet, Zipcaster and Strikes, I think they should bring this indicator back. I don't think it cluttered the UI at all honestly, it's small and goes away quickly. Just add it back and keep the Splatoon 3 indicator on top of the player, at the same time.

T420 Intel HD 3000 Control Panel not opening on Windows 10

So I just got a great deal on a T420 for 50 bucks, even came with an unannounced 12GB of RAM.

But the Intel Graphics Control Panel isn't opening up. It is there, since when I try to open it it shows up on the task manager but it goes away after a while without even opening up. I have the default Windows 10 driver, which is also the most recent one, dating 2016, while the official driver in Intel's page is from like 2012 and the Lenovo's page one from 2014 or so. Before you ask, I've already tried uninsalling the default Windows 10 driver and installing the ones from those pages but the control panel doesn't show up anyways, so I don't think it is an issue with the driver itself. I would normally not care at all about this if it wasn't for the shitty power saving feature that automatically regulates screen brightness and can only be disabled from there. This features is dumb as well, since it increases brightness on lighter background and reduces it on darker backgrounds (what sense does that make?) So if someone has this laptop with this configuration and managed to get the Intel Control Panel to open up, how did you do it? Thanks in advance.
