Looks like everything is essentially in the same spot UI wise, but with a native application that hopefully gets moving a lot faster.

I’ve noticed that currently on Bitwarden, for auto fill it takes 6-7 seconds just to get authenticated with fingerprint and fill in the username and password field. That should hopefully be down to like 2 or 3 seconds.

It’s not “irregular”, and it’s been done before as protest. A Buddhist monk did it in the past to protest the slaughter of cattle.

They do like money, but Valve also loves providing a service to people.

Nobody uses Epic Games, Origin, Ubisoft Connect, or Battle.net because they want to, they use it because they have to.

Steam Awards is a bit janky sure, but to say that their inability to run pointless awards properly ruins the convenience and value that Steam brings to its users would be a gross overstatement.

You could even say, they cancelled Bud Light.

Oh wait no, they don't do that! /s

Not to mention that the 5 seconds countdown timer is bullshit. In actuality, the timer appears after about a second of playing through the ad, then locks at 5 seconds for about a second and a half, then slowly counts down to 1 where it locks for a second and a half again, and finally gives you the option to skip the ad. I'd wager it's closer to 7 or 8 seconds per "5 second" ad.

Not sure why people are downvoting you. I've been in about 2 Valorant games where I've seen people straight up get banned mid-match. It terminated the match immediately.

On top of that, I've never seen obvious cheaters in Valorant. Go play Counter-Strike for long enough and you'll find spin bots.

Is rootkit anti-cheat sketchy? Absolutely. Does it work really fucking well? Absolutely.

The fact that this guy is going to jail by January but Trump isn't even close, means something is very wrong with our justice system.

Intel Management Engine is also noted to be a backdoor, which is in the CPU itself.

The Purism laptop disables IME, or at least tries to from what I understand.

The "Phone Barn" market is incoming

And it's been proven that medication doesn't necessarily work. Over the years, medication has honestly messed me up more than it's ever helped me, in permanent ways.

Her fiance dodged a bullet

Seems like the timing is a little off on the third criminal investigation.

Almost seems like the scratching of the phone is intentional. It would bring down the resale costs of the device and make them harder to trade in, and prompts consumers to think their phone is older than it really is in order to get them to buy a new one.

Not to mention that the heating issues on iPhone 15 are going to kill the battery faster than previous phones that do not overheat.

• The old Thief games (succeeded by Dishonored)
• Condemned: Criminal Origins

Those are the two I got for now.

Developers, developers?

That's when you just see through their bullshit and don't apply.

When you have other companies that aren't bullshitting, and they're also paying a higher minimum wage, the other companies pulling that shit don't stand a chance.

I’d bet there’s a CSAM test image dataset with innocuous images that get picked up by the script. Not sure how the system works, but if it’s through hashes then it would be pretty simple to add that to the script.

Agreed. Take the money and do your own thing. Or better yet, help people that want to be helped.

I could believe that too tbh

Yeah, Steve Jobs was definitely an asshole, and he didn’t personally design any of his products, but he did know what direction to move things in and what consumers wanted in a phone. He was the first to put a truly usable portable touchscreen computer into our pockets with a phone in it, and every phone nowadays is basically just a reimagined, upgraded version of the first iPhone. The way we communicate is forever changed because of the iPhone.

But yeah iPhone’s are kind of the pinnacle of “how much can we fuck you over before you notice” now. All because of the little Apple on the back of the phone.
