Typically the attacks don’t take 10 hours… they take seconds, what takes time is getting the captured device a laboratory and the laboratory having time to look at it. So what will happen usually is the phone is put into a faraday bag, hooked up to a usb charger, and put on a shelf until the laboratory can get around to it.

Once the lab starts attacking the phone, it could take seconds as I said above, but some attacks are more involved requiring the phone to be disassembled and leads soldered onto the board. The restarting is about reducing the time the lab has before they can start and finish their attack

The same process applies to computers and laptops as well, there are lots of mouse jigglers for sale to prevent a screen saver from going on.

Carpet in the bathroom? Bold choice

The recall is redundant, it should just be a notice that butter contains milk, and stickers for any leftover inventory.

Collecting it and destroying it like it’s poison is silly. If your allergic to milk, you probably should not be buying butter.

Every time Zogg publishes a video, i feel a little emotional rush, they are all gems.

Your mitigations can work, but they rely on the user being perfect and never making a mistake at home, which is a gamble they will eventually lose.

Firefox lets you set default site settings, make the default site setting disable autoplay audio and video.

For sites where you know you trust the video, you can do a per site permission in the URL bar saying autoplay is allowed for like YouTube

It’s a good video, the commentary was well thought out. Thank you for posting it

If you have a phone at your house, it’s trivial to know who owns the phone.

It would be nice if people just said what they were thinking.

We wanted to juice our PSN subscriber numbers, so we’re forcing everybody to make a PSN account, so hopefully they spend more money with us in the future

true… but you could say that about anything, just trying new strategies

you can program without math, but it will be hard to pass a rigorous interview without math.

You should strive to learn symbolic math at least, and make sure you can do all the leet code problems and explanations using whatever math you are comfortable with.

Just watched it; I think it was a good movie for a deep study of a unreliable narrator and that external support was gated on playing a role. Fill a roll or fall through the cracks, and lose people’s good will, since you no longer are the idea they like.

As a joker follow up movie, it was a massive miss, and probably wasted people’s time who went to watch it.

Its kind of live action, and you do roleplay whatever you want to be. But yeah I agree it’s not the perfect use of the word.

Cyberpunk is a role-playing game in that you have a role to play, but it is not a role-playing game where you determine your own destiny and have significant impact on the outcome.

I don’t know if there’s better ways to express that thinking, ARPG versus CRPG? But that lacks nuance as well

It is a visually a nice looking game, clearly put together with love. $15 is a bit much. It’s on the rails visual novel, with some interactive mini games to move the story forward.

Okay dragon fucker,

I understand your point, I do not agree with it. Phobia requires a state of mind. Phobia. https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/phobia

Was steam’s actions driven by their fear/hate of transsexuals? Clearly not. Therefore this action is not an act of transphobia.

Words have meaning, the written in the dictionary for a reason, bending them for your political advantage may feel good, but it weakens your entire argument.

I’ve made it as clear as I can.

Yes it was a choice. It was not a choice based on people sexuality. You can dislike it, you can move to other platforms, you can pirate. But it wasn’t transphobic. They do not care about people’s sex organs

I think what it certainly means is they’ve looked at the analysis of how the traditional family sharing has been working. And they see lots of geographically dispersed groups sharing libraries.

I have a credible source tell me the original idea was that parents and children could share libraries. Because having multiple children and repurchasing your library multiple times is a burden for families.

I think they’ve both improved the system, by allowing games to run concurrently, and reduced the unintended usage of their household sharing program. A program that only exists by the good grace of the publishers, by not being a threat into game revenue. If you can make the argument it’s a family sharing, and they would have bought the game once anyway, then it’s not a problem to share the game.

I think they took the minimal cut that made this work, they could have done something ownerous like require everybody to upload IDs and prove a family relationship. But that wouldn’t scale, and it probably exclude lots of different odd family scenarios. This way they’re very inclusive. The only limitation is geographic pricing boundaries. They don’t want the one family member in Ukraine buying games for their distant family in the US at a discount. They are trying to do geofencing of the pricing.

Like you said, if it is a big problem for adults, they can just pirate the games. Steam’s trying to make it as convenient as possible for a household to not have to repurchase games without becoming a pirate
