Seems like they could just release the server software for the online only games. I’m pretty sure people are reverse engineering it anyway.

0.286x damage done, 3.5x damage taken. Doesn’t scale well at all. It would be nice if it were more granular and they had separate sliders for damage done and damage taken.

Her punishment should be at least as bad as the sentences rioters served for breaking into the U.S. capitol. Or maybe that should be the cap since her actions didn’t result in death and weren’t intended as an attempt at insurrection (unless someone that owns Tesla is now considered the head of government).

Invisible weapons are all the rage these days.

Yes but US conservatives don’t seem to know it.

I can’t either. But at some point I stopped punching in dreams and started tearing things in half like they’re made of paper. No gore involved.

Honestly, I don’t want age signals sent at all. As long as I (the parent) can use parental controls to limit app access, that’s all that matters. Give users the option to deny ad personalization and that protects children from ad personalization. Companies don’t need to know anyone’s age. Meta is pushing for more data, but this feels like an underhanded way to take a middle road that gives Google more data (but not as much as Meta wants). We should take the high road and tell them both to butt out.

The site is also set up so users get recommended images to pin to their own boards. What’s not clear is that when that happens, Pinterest seems to assume some sort of shared ownership. So if the original image is removed, anyone that pinned it is suddenly counted as the new owner.

I had pinned images to one of my boards that I used to keep a board of art that I liked, thinking it was like bookmarking. Then I started getting emails saying I had violated copyright because Pinterest couldn’t tell the difference between me pinning something it recommended that I pin and me uploading an image.

I went into my boards and saw that some of the art I had pinned (I uploaded nothing) had changed to look as though I was the original uploader and/or owner.

I deleted everything and quit the site after that.

They’re just trying to scare people enough into having a reaction or admitting fault. Someone could also fail because they are afraid they will fail or they’re afraid they’re a suspect. If the actual leaker thinks they’re doing the right thing andthat the poly can’t catch them, they probably won’t even have a reaction.

93% vs 77% doesn’t strike me as polarized. 16% difference?

77% doesn’t even seem that bad if it’s a style of game I like. From about 2001 I used to see sci fi movies that looked interesting as long as they had at least a 25% Rotten Tomatoes score because my tastes were different.

Is there something I’m missing? I haven’t played either game and I haven’t looked at reviews. Won’t buy KCD (no character creation) and probably will eventually buy Avowed.

I don’t think it’s just the backups. Apple’s site says it’s things “such as” wallet, notes, photos, documents, bookmarks, reminders, voice memos, shortcuts, messages backup, and device backup. The “such as” seems to imply there’s more.

It should have an account creation process like those old RPGs where it asks a series of questions then says, “we recommend this server: <blah>. It is <one short sentence about its content>” then has click next to proceed or click “I want to choose another server” to just get a list.

1-hate, 5-love Do you like capitalism? Do you like tech? Do you like sports? Would you prefer a large server? etc

It should also be possible to skip the quiz and go straight to server selection at any point.

Muskland. Quickly so we can start a fight.

What kind of porn is in this thumbnail!?

My mother was the same except she had me convinced that there would only be something wrong with me if I had to see someone about it.

Hang in there until you can get help without her being involved.

I think there have been businesses trying to get it shut down for years because they want to sell the data rather than giving it out for free. I forget which ones, but I’d swear I read about this years ago.

Just did a quick search with no luck, but apparently it’s part of Project 2025 to commercialize it or get rid of it.

It’s also incredibly fucked up that they’re worried about real estate prices falling in an economy where so many are having a problem paying rent or owning a house.

Like Palantir.
