Love their docs. The one about Outer Wilds is a real treat.

I would like to never see this image again.

for when you don't host your own server but you use theirs

Considering this service would be used predominantly for pirated games, I imagine they're not willing to open that can of worms.

Clearly not enough, if they're desperate enough to lock client-side features behind a subscription.

can access files under Downloads

Wait, you can access local files on your phone's storage in the VM now? Is that a new addition? On the Android 15 version of this, you don't have any local access at all.

Android 'journalism' has been dead for years now. Nothing but engagement-bait, inconsequential articles like this, and "sneak peaks" into unannounced features that may never see the light of day (remember when Mishaal Rahman revealed that Google was working on making Pixel phones work as a dash cam video recorder? never saw the light of day).

It shouldn't be too long now before the EU implements its regulation that requires phone batteries to be "easily replaceable with simple, easy to access tools", right?

That's going to be monumental for the lifespan of these devices, especially as phones get software support for longer and longer these days.

Hopefully you will learn not to generalise so brazenly in future ;)

RCS is an open, standardised protocol implemented globally by the GSM. It isn't beholden to an American company at all? The GSM takes advice from third parties (like the implementation of MLS) but acts independently. Yes, Google had a huge hand in the design and implementation of it but Google doesn't own the standard protocol.

Not sure if you're just joking... but it is vastly, vastly better than using a messaging platform owned by a for-profit company like Meta.

Damn, I haven't thought about that 90's Sabrina show since, well.. the 90's!

So because nobody in your life uses it, it doesn't need to exist? What?

Are you the most important person on the planet, or just incapable of thinking that other people's lives might be different to yours?

The point is to take the base communication technology (texting) and bring it to the 21st century without being beholden to some American company.

This would kill creativity.

Please learn some facts about how the CMA operates before discounting it.

The CMA is independent from the government - it does not have a minister calling the shots.

The encryption stuff is coming from the Home Office, which is directly government controlled.

The CMA and the Home Office aren't working together at all - they don't even share an office.

This is not "the government" saying this. It's the independent competition and markets regulator known as the CMA which, whilst publicly funded, isn't run by the government.

Interesting. I wonder what new mechanics the sequel will have? To be honest, a graphical improvement and more types of hose attachments would probably be enough to justify a sequel - but I wonder if they're going to do more story stuff this time around? The original game had a fairly funny story, albeit entirely text-based.

Edit: found some more info

From the discord

We're excited to announce the next chapter for PowerWash Simulator! Introducing...

✨ PowerWash Simulator 2! ✨

New Career

PowerWash Simulator 2 will feature a full 38 level career set across Muckingham, taking you to places old and new. From Lubri City to Pumpton, and everywhere in between!

Home(base) is where the heart is

There's no place like home, and you'll now have a base of operations. Somewhere to relax solo, or gather the team before you venture out to tackle the grime!

Split Screen has entered the chat!

PowerWash Simulator 2 will be getting some co-op updates, including split screen & shared online progression. Sit back and unwind with your partner in grime, or jump online and play with other washers to hose down the town.

Soap-erior Washing

The soap system has also been reworked for PowerWash Simulator 2, allowing your cleaning experience to feel more satisfying than ever. Foam up any dirty surface and easily wash it away with a smooth swipe of your washer.

PowerWash Simulator 2 will be coming to Steam, Xbox Series X|S, Windows Store, PlayStation 5 | Pro & Epic Games

It's such a bizarrely American view to restrict people's access to healthcare... I guess the US will never get free healthcare if healthcare is still seen as a privilege and not a right.

Everybody who gets vaccinated is documented as having gotten vaccinated, no?

So why can't hospitals check the record and confirm that patients have been vaccinated? If they have, then everything's fine. If they couldn't get vaccinated for legitimate reasons, that'd be documented too.

The point is to ensure as many people are vaccinated as possible, not to prove a point about the efficacy of vaccines.

That said, I dislike the idea of healthcare being able to pick and choose, for any reason, not to treat someone. Then again I live in a sane country with free healthcare.

Markwayne is two names put together. It's greedy. Markwayne is a greedy man!

This update seems to have made the UI darker throughout the entire interface. I suspect it's enabled HDR throughout, but I'm not sure if that's an improvement to be honest.

Does anybody have any insight into how CcwGTV is meant to handle dynamic range?

I was hoping the Google TV Streamer would be the ultimate Shield TV replacement, but alas...

Maybe Nvidia will surprise us after the Switch 2 finally releases?

I wish we'd have a phone with the specs of the 10 Pro but in the size of a Pixel 5, personally!

Yeah. I wonder how they intend to differentiate the Pro from the base model going forward? More AI features...?
