hardware based

Sounds good until you realise theres no way to transfer/back them up and you are limited to 100 [1] (previously 25?).

Personally my password manager has almost 4x the entries so hardware passkey solutions are a joke leaving users with single option - upload their keychains to ms/apple/etc clouds where they can be requested by any gov under the sun for x reasons.

Passkeys were invented so hacked sites could brush off their leaks with "no credentials were leaked" and minimise any regulatory fines. This is the reason why its being pushed by the big players.

Additionally this puts the same players in control of your logins - want to sync your passkeys? - enable "iCloud Keychain", or some other 'trust me bro' app that will 'securely store/sync your data' - no thank you.

In perfect world users should be able to generate a certificate, upload it to a couple nfc capable ubikey like devices that blow a fuse afterwards preventing from additional writes/reads and use that to login to every app ever. You would buy such devices in packs of 3, upload same cert to all, hide the other, burry the third.

What does one buy if they want a 1080p60 action cam with stabilisation that doesn't overheat, has good battery life and acceptable low light performance (think rainy day in the woods)?

This is what stop killing games seek turned up to 11.

From Steam demo description:

This release is free, and it is two things at once.

A playable demo

A self-contained slice of Cold War Assault you can download and play right now - the classic open-world sandbox, vehicles, AI and mission system that defined a genre, running on a clean, modern codebase.

An official asset pack

The demo doubles as a sanctioned asset pack for the Arma community. The bundled game data is provided as raw material you are free to study, modify and build new Arma content from. If you have ever wanted to learn how a Bohemia game is put together, or wanted clean reference assets to start a mod, this is for you.

Look at Ukraine, how weak they were and how good they defended themselves.

How can you type such nonsense? Look at 2014 Crimean annexation - thats "how good they defended themselves" without western training and billions in weapon aid. After four years they have million plus dead but "this is fine" for the west.

That game is called World Of Warcraft.

It had its server reimplemented by enthusiasts [1] with no access to this "one of a kind cloud" for decades now. Heck it even supposedly had game client ported to new engine [2].

B-but we can't release the binaries due to licensing...

Release the source. As a developer you should be able to write code that allows to stub out all the propriety parts. The community will replace your speedtrees, matchmaking, netcode, anticheats and so on.

Change is hard we get it, but the excuses are on par with any other industry..

You can't make a person see a problem if his livelihood depends on not seeing it.

In my gaming circles, people who work on SaaS solutions are against SKG even though they are avid gamers and even open source contributors. They just recoil on a thought of an EOL plan. Same on HN.

"Think of the indies" is just same old "Think of the children" astroturfing.

As a westerner i'm constantly bombarded with

China is failing

Russia is done for

X is over

There are entire youtube channels dedicated to these circlejerks and they are forced into my recommendations all while we loose freedoms to 'fight foreign propoganda'.

It's not genuine and very opaquely biased. The same can be asked about any country depending on whos opinion you accepted as your truth.

Theres always their side, your side and the truth.

There's a push for extremes on both sides and both refuse to acknowledge it.

It's as if the conflict is good for something...

They are enthusiast targeted brand and majority of enthusiast (heck even entry level cases) have windows in it.

Enthusiasts care about the details - airflow, cable management and of course aesthetics. Noctua doesn't. I respect their engineering/no bullshit approach, the price bump is worth it but they lost my money on multiple builds by sticking to their 'brand color'.

They're the Soylent of the fan world - everything you need but spark zero joy.

I'd be interested in seeing sales figures for same fans in their brand and other colors.

FPS based on last frame is good to see load spikes, particular periodic ones, if you graph them.

This.

The other two are not good for anything gaming as any framerate inconsistency breaks the experience. A stable frame rate is much more important than a high one.

Who decided you can post this? Was 'everyone' consulted on what they'd rather you post? Because it seems like you and a handful of politicians posted ideas you wanted and everyone else can suck it...

I hope you see the absurdity of your 'everyone' claim.

VR/AR is a gimmick. Gimmicks have no place on a work tool (macOS). No one is gonna use VR/AR with a laptop. Liquid Glass is Apples Metro UI.

I'm still on 18.x thats insecure by now and switching to Asahi as soon as something breaks.

Educated, established, working within the industry yet life ruined based on marketing hype and hallucinations.

Would think being in the field for 30 years one would develop some common sense but apparently its less and less the case.

This is not some footage issue, there apparently was a smear campaign online.

FTFA:

After making the music video, Foreman allegedly continued putting up social media posts with names of the officers involved, the lawsuit states.

Several of the posts allegedly falsely claimed that the cops “stole my money” and were “criminals disguised as law enforcement,” according to the suit.

They also falsely stated that the officers are “white supremacists,” that Officer Brian Newman “used to do hard drugs” before “snitching” on his friends, and that Officer Lisa Phillips is “biologically male,” according to the lawsuit.

Ask yourself, why would a scraper ddos?

Don't need to ask anything i can tell you exactly - because they have no regard for anything but their own profit.

Let me give you an example of this mom and pop shop known as anthropic.

You see they have this thing called claudebot and at least initially it scraped iterating through IP's.

Now you have these things called shared hosting servers, typically running 1000-10000 domains of actual low volume websites on 1-50 or so IPs.

Guess what happens when it is your networks time to bend over? Whole hosting company infrastructure going down as each server has hundreds of claudebots crawling hundreds of vhosts at the same time.

This happened for months. Its the reason they are banned in WAFs by half the hosting industry.
