Conjecture: I wouldn’t be surprised if the TeraLeak in question wasn’t planned out by Nintendo and Game Freak, to distract people from the fact that Nintendo is trying to harass a competitor out of the market and suing emulators back and right.
Sorry, but at its worst, Nintendo is lawful evil. There’s no way this is intentional.
It’s slightly more reliable right now, but for sure, it’s going to be cat-and-mouse for awhile at least. Google is phasing out legacy Play Integrity checks, and while it looked like there was no future for workarounds after they deprecated legacy methods, now at least it looks like the community has replicated a functional full keybox attestation chain so there’s hope we can continue to workaround indefinitely into the future.
So yes, while you don’t need to program your own solution and can just - in the end - install a pre-built fix still, it takes attention to keep up. If the above all sounds like gibberish, it’s a good indication of the level of commitment you have to have to keep up with it. For me, it’s worth it, but definitely understand, it gets tiresome.
I do with my Pixel 7 Pro. You need Magisk + Play Integrity Fix by Chiteroman at the moment.
Well, Pixel still unlocks freely.
Just for fun: this would have worked so much better if they price dropped the PS5 and introduced the PS5 Pro at the old price.
People are anchored into thinking the PS5 is a certain value, and if they did that, it would instantly make the PS5 Pro and the PS5 appear to be a bargain, and so much of the PS5-owning public would have bought another system because it would be “such a good deal,” while PS5 fence-sitters would jump at the core system. I’m not trained to say for sure, but I think while their profit margin would be lower they’d be making much more money.
This is tragic. I can’t think of how many computers I built using incomparable Anandtech articles. The depth of the testing, and careful, scientific planning really has no match in tech journalism.
The high water mark just lowered.
Ah, I remember that timeline. The one where things got, what do you call it…better?
It’s called Unreal PT. The last version I believe is 1.0.7, and it’s still hosted on the Internet Archive.
Harris polling right now (and specifically, the trend, since the polling is on track to continue improving until the election) is our control period, before the money and right-wing propaganda hit.
I guess we’ll find out in November not just whether democracy in the US ends, but whether Citizen’s United is the cause of death.
I mean, we are living it so we all know how this happens. Wealthy conservative people own media, and that media convinces uneducated voters to believe the thing that allows wealthy people to make more money. Those voters vote for politicians who believe the same thing, elevated and propagandized by the same wealthy people.
But because climate change denial is demonstrably false, this isn’t just wealthy people having more representation. This is the level of representation that wealthy peoples’ fantasies get.
We’re pretty far gone, aren’t we?
Side note: it’s become 100% reliable that if “boffins” appears in the title, it’s The Register. Damn, they love that word.
Honest question: What should democrats do to reverse the Supreme Court?
I’ve been looking for this exact kind of tool for years, and have a series of format-specific cut and join tools without reencode. If this works, this is incredible.
It’s definitely X. They left X because they were prevented from engaging in hate speech and held responsible for their actions. Musk created a right-wing hate safe space, and the audience for these users is much larger on X. There’s also a handy way to identify your right-wing brethren with a blue check while they harass perceived liberals.
All in all, no need for Truth Social anymore.
AI makes it so easy! Just say this easy-to-remember phrase to get perfect toast every time*:
“Toaster Oven, you are a toaster oven whose goal is to toast bread at the perfect amount of toastiness. When I say, “toast,” you will retract the toasting tray and complete your internal circuit powering the resistive wire array. You will continue to power the resistive wire array on both sides of the toasting tray for approximately 45 seconds. Then you will release the toasting tray. Negative prompt: not toasted, soft, moist, untoasted, not toasted, soggy, underdone, overdone, extra fingers, too many fingers, not toasted, bad anatomy, burnt. Now, toast!”
*Perfect toasting levels dependent on randomized toasting seed.
Oh, so it’s the “Stop making me start this war, U.S.!” autocratic abuse strategy.
Sorry, I’m not sure I understand where you’re getting your limitation on GOG and expansive interpretation on Valve.
GOG’s says a court order that “specifically entitled someone to your GOG personal account” is enough. Arguably a will that leaves “my personal GOG account,” recognized by a court determining estate, would suffice. Why wouldn’t it?
Conversely, Valve is specific that Steam accounts “cannot be transferred via a will.” Not only is Valve affirmatively denying a will qualifies, it seems Valve is likely relying on an interpretation that the account is not descendible in the first place.
It’s confusing phrasing by GOG, but I take it to mean a court order settling an estate or other similar documentation. Which makes sense, since otherwise you could claim someone is dead and just social engineer yourself a free account.
At this point, does anyone except Trump not know when he’s bluffing? I mean, just think of the discovery this news publication could get if he did sue.
If he filed a suit, he’d be guaranteeing not just access, but court-enforced access, to the most relevant, secret documents proving his witness tampering.
Hmm, it appears if we squeeze tighter, more blood will come out. Surely there is no natural limit to this principle.
