Try electrical engineering! All you need is a socket and a fork!

Today: variable manip to cause the engine to read a jump to the ending

Tomorrow: TASBot codes Call of Duty remaster using jumps and damage boosts and launches it by climbing stairs [MILLY BITCHELL APPROVED] [SPEEDRUN ASMR]

In fairness, I very much doubt a chargeback would even get so far as a human.

From what I've seen with other companies across different continents, a chargeback triggers an automatic account ban with whichever retailer and that's that.

A good point, but if privacy is their key concern then I would imagine it would have to be a two step approach - rip out the SIM and radio, but also have a couple of plan B's such as phones with location tracking (the irony isn't lost on me), land-based EPIRB's, or satphones or whatever's needed.

That, or invest in some drop-croc martial arts!

I encountered Quishing the other day - the inadvertent scanning of QR codes that take a browser to a malformed URL or site with malware embedded.

Back in my day, it was just called "being a bit dense", especially as most cameras/QR readers will offer you a prompt to go to a website first.

😂 yeah it did seem a bit pointless putting it in the title. Maybe [spoiler] Le Mans 24h Result may have been more sensible.

That said, browsing an aggregator or social media after an event is risky business.

Is she the one that works for Nintendo, and saw Luigi in Super Mario 64 but she switched it off before it could save?

Like Microsoft Sam trying to do the Doric accent after a few pints.

Looks like a Samsung battery, about to give off some disco gas.

Yeah the charge got binned as internet access became more mainstream.it was inexpensive though, like £2 for half hour or something.

I'd pay a fair bit more to go back to an age when staring at this beautiful icon was all the reassurance you needed that the page was on its way:

Moving on fifteen years, StumbleUpon scratched that exact itch!

I mean you're not far wrong. I always dreamed of a Ford Sierra or a Vauxhall VX220, but the Scooby with McRae and Grist's name on it was an absolute belter.

I suppose the last one is halfway true. In the UK before internet access was mainstream, you either had to use the school/work network connection and their weird access control packages, or use the local library. In any case, you actually had to get dressed to use the internet.

This was when ISDN was a fat pipe, and if you went to the library, had to plan what you was going to look up because you paid for 30mins of access time. After you'd searched for PS1 cheat codes, Ask(ed) Jeeves for a fact to settle an argument, and looked up pictures of the 555-branded Subaru Impreza, it was time to burn off whatever acces time was left on Lycos, Excite, or Google's directory service to find new cool stuff.

Old school.

Looks decent. The opening reminded me of Everybody's Gone To The Rapture.

I think it'll be unfair to call it "Fallout but without the nuclear bomb, more of a nuclear accident", but I'm looking forward to it all the same.

That last line made me change to Ray Parker Jr style funk.

How is someone getting control of their data by paying a ransom?

The opposing actor still has your data, so it doesn't really matter how much you pay, you'll never be able to mitigate that security issue, surely?

wow

very sale

much sad that Kabosu not here

The 2000's world wide web ruined me.

I can't read <3 without hearing this banger.

All I needed was a reason
