I vet lesser known projects, but yea I do end up just taking credibility for granted for larger projects. I assume that with those projects, the maintainers team with pull access is doing that vetting before they accept a pull.
I'm not for the US gov or politics getting involved in legal issues, however the music industry must lose this lawsuit no matter what.
The precedent it will cause many people to be effected that wouldn't be normally, AND also forces a punishment that isn't equal to the crime.
We live in a world that very much requires internet to do anything, this judgement would force people to go offline for potential IP(Intellectual Property) issues. That punishment is exponentially higher than what the crime actually was. It's life ruining.
This isn't the same as "oh you sold modified game hardware to people so you can no longer touch that game system", this is "you may have stole music, so therefore you are losing your ability to do anything digital". Even if the accusation is true, considering how much of the world is digital now, and how few ISP options are available in areas due to legal constraints, this is not a fair punishment to give. A fair punishment is a fine and a ban from being allowed to hold that producers IP. It's a severe overstep to remove someones access to the internet for an IP violation and I fully agree it is not the responsibility of the ISP
Honestly, this is the digital equivalent of doing a house arrest for someone stealing music from a store. It isn't right.
Most if not all 4k players are network enabled due to the DRM that is on the 4k medium. From my experiences, they usually need to connect to the internet to download the keys at least once before anything 4k works. DVD and BD usually work without issue though.
usually bluray and 4k players need to connect to the internet at least once in order to download the codecs, but like yea I disconnect mine from the internet right after
Yeah, and even then, if you're worried about it triggering the alarm, just contact your local dispatch ahead of time and be like, hey, I'm trying to modify my alarm and my service company is not being cooperative with me. So if you get an alarm to my address within the next like two or three hours, disregard it means I messed something up. Local dispatch will be more than understanding
the inability to manage my own system would be a solid "yea never mind this isn't what I wanted" and shipping the device back. it probally wouldn't be a full refund but, that's the cost for me making a mistake like that. I'll be damned if in not going to be able to access my own alarm panel. I would be firmly against any setting not being in a user accessible location regardless if it's a time thing.
Hopefully op had the tech enable all settings on the main panel cause that's such a shitty money grabbing practice. Just lock the ability to change time behind a service code on the main panel. incorrect code = alarm is triggered.
pocket I never used. I found it ugly and just s violation of privacy as it moved a service that should be local only, to external webservers. I can see why it's finally had the plug pulled
they just need to outlaw subscription based services on services that don't need it.
And no continuous support is not a valid subscription reason, if you want to charge support separate that's fair to do but this pay 60$ a year "because it's a continuous development" needs to go away.
Same with the "pay a rent for a building", it's just money drain. Being a landlord should not be allowed to be for profit, and should be heavily regulated. If you wanna rent? Sure, but at max it should be equivalent to costs the building has, and restricted to only apartment complexes. So annoying that you can't find property anymore to actually /own/ because a handful of rental companies can just write a blank check and buy it all.
I'll do you one better. The target redcard credit card doesn't allow non-standard special chars, max I think it was 12 chars and gets pissy at using known SQL special chars. If it wasn't for the fact it required a credit check prior to getting to that screen I would have ran so hard.
What's even more annoying is their password field says that it does support that, but if you try via the mobile app it errors out
I've used two headsets that done it, the Arctis Pro Wireless and turtle beach stealth pro, I highly recommend the Arctis Pro wireless over the turtle beach though as the Arctis Pro wireless was a seemless swap, where the turtle beach has a 10-15 second delay swapping battery.
my headset does this, I'm spoiled by it and I'll never go back. I'm fully ok with putting up with some of the issues with the headset exclusively cause of this feature. It's so nice
honestly agreed, I don't mind the fast charging, but I would love removable batteries. Even if it meant shorter life spans. like I used to be able to pay 20-30$ on a battery and replace it, but now you need adhesive and a heat gun
this just here, we don't have many roundabouts but, the amount of drivers who think it's a race to get from point a to point b is unreasonable. I'm not about to enter the roundabout as car c if the pink or yellow car is flying with no indicators.
I'm fully okay with them doing so, but they have to disclose what they're doing so. Like the fact that the review didn't disclose that they were an employee is very sketchy to me.
Steam is one of the few apps that I'm fully okay with having on my phone and using for 2fa. I especially like that when I go to login it's like Discord where I can scan a QR code to confirm from the App instead of having to type in a number that expires. Like it would be nice to have the other functionality as well but I'm content with their current system
Okay so where's the value here? Like I'm sure the phone numbers are worthwhile but including the 2fa codes with the phone number doesn't seem like worthfull information, unless steam doesn't properly have OTP setup and they don't expire in a timely manner, but I'm willing to bet that a company like steam has a properly configured system
airplanes are struck by lightning all the time. They are designed against it, something wasn't done right that caused the issue you are describing. A plane should not be effected by the strike to the point it's no longer easily operational.
Being said, airlines try to avoid it when possible as it can lead to costly inspections and downtime to verify it's still flight ready.
