I'd argue that these devices are so cheap and so capable that it exposes the poor security that is rampant everywhere. Banning them wont stop similar devices from being made and used criminally. Instead this should be a wake up call to everyone about which forms of communication or authentication are largely ineffective.

I want a dude equivalent of this but my wife won't let me buy samurai pants.

I bought Factorio a couple years ago and played for about 4 hours. I thought it was pretty fun but I didn't really get hooked or anything so it sat in my Steam library for a while.

Early last summer I gave it another go and something finally clicked. I probably spent a whole month doing nothing but play Factorio when I wasn't eating sleeping or working. My wife was concerned. It was by far my most played game last year and it's now probably one of my favorite games ever.

If you're into programming or dev ops it definitely aligns with that mindset once you get deep enough in the game you start seeing the patterns and trying to optimize your factory design. But that sort of game isn't for everyone.

I figure half the purpose of these sorts of devices is to prove just how insecure certain systems are to bring about change. Governments rarely have a good grasp on this sort of thing though. It's not like banning the device will make anyone more secure.

Who are you that is so wise in the ways of science?

I guess because of hacks? It's not like Facebook is selling data on tor. This point doesn't make much sense.

Yes. Also check my instance name.

Exactly. Explaining to a computer what a photo of a dog looks like is super hard. Every rule you can come up with has exceptions or edge cases. But if you show it millions of dog pictures and millions of not-dog pictures it can do a pretty decent job of figuring it out when given a new image it hasn't seen before.

Roll it up like a scroll and just put the whole thing in my mouth.

I'm kind of baffled how frequently Bard refuses to help at all. I can copy and paste the same exact prompt into ChatGPT and get a fairly good response. But fairly regularly Bard will start to give a reply and then just stop halfway through and be like "I can't help you."

Not sure what is going on there.

Chungus.

The traffic is hell. It's just one car but it's stuck in a bumper-to-bumper superposition for all possible points on the road simultaneously.

I sort of feel like it's correctly-rated. It's a serviceable third person cover shooter with an interesting setting and some great visuals. The reveal of "you're the real monster here" has a good amount of impact but it's hard to totally land that message when the game offers no alternative.

The main problem was that all that was a bit of a pleasant surprise. The good parts of the game were sort of hidden behind the disguise of a generic military shooter. The box art couldn't possibly be more boring. It sold very poorly and gained momentum later for being actually good.

It's a bummer to see it leave Steam knowing that less access to it will mean less people get to check it out.

I just went to check how many I have since I need a new spool of Prusa Orange PETG for printing printer parts.

I have 15 Prusameters. 💸

The narrative is something that can really only be experienced once. It's a game I really enjoyed but I haven't had an urge to play it again.

AI can write greentexts that make sense but they are boring.

Both at the same time.

I support all forms of corporate disobedience that create fleeting moments of joy.

I sell Dwemer oil and Dwemer oil accessories.

Hypnospace Outlaw is hilarious and perfectly captures the weirdness of the early Internet.

Also don't forget to talk to your kids about the dangers of shonking.
