You Can Now Jailbreak A PS4 With An LG TV

Jump

  • The people with appropriate skills must have the tv (it's not cheap) and actually interested in jailbreaking them. So far noone has done so.

    • Android's new anti-theft features

    Jump

  • It would be very inconvenient if you time it well, e.g. when they're playing games beside you and you see them about to land a decisive blow.

    • How can I get my Switch better connected to the Internet?

    Jump

  • Whelp, it's not great. Ideally, you'll need at least NAT type B to be able to play online without issues.

    You may improve the score by assigning a static ip address to your nintendo switch in your router settings, then add it to the router's DMZ. But this is assuming the source of the problem is the router's firewall. If the source of the issue is your ISP using CGNAT, then not much you can do beyond changing ISP or talk to your ISP to see if they have any online gaming-friendly internet plans.

  • Supposedly they found a new method (Q*) that significantly improved their models, enough to make some key people revolt to force the company to not monetize it out of ethical concern. Those people have been pushed out ofc.

    • Gunmen kill 3 Western tourists, translator in central Afghanistan

    Jump

  • There are certain kinds of people that love this kind of tourism. I mean, tourists visit North Korea every year. It might be the thrill of visiting forbidden countries that attracts them.

    • Gunmen kill 3 Western tourists, translator in central Afghanistan

    Jump

  • It's a famous historical site:

    Bamiyan, one of the poorest regions in impoverished Afghanistan, is a popular destination for foreign tourists because it contains Buddhist monastic ensembles and sanctuaries, according to the U.N. Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.

    The scenic city was also the spot where the Taliban destroyed two large Buddha statues in March 2001 during their previous rule in Afghanistan. The group said the statues were blasphemous under Islam.

    • History says tariffs rarely work, but U.S. President Biden’s 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs could defy the trend, researcher says

    Jump

  • Heck, Japanese manufacturers even sell $15K EVs in Japan (e.g. Nissan Sakura) but they don't seem to be interested in selling them elsewhere.

    • Self-balancing commuter pods ride old railway lines on demand

    Jump

  • They're probably marketing this as requiring zero infrastructure changes to attract buyers and investors. Just put the pod lifter at the end of the track and it's done.

    • Microsoft stoops to new low with ads in Windows 11, as PC Manager tool suggests your system needs ‘repairing’ if you don’t use Bing

    Jump

  • Are you living in the same country as those that complain about ads in windows? From what I understand, this is not rolled out globally yet.

    • Samsung mocks Apple’s crushing iPad Pro ad with its own ‘UnCrush’ pitch

    Jump

  • The problem is, these new phones often have new speed charging protocols that only work best with their own charger, basically forcing you to pay more to get the charger if you want to utilize speed charging unless you already have a new-ish charger from that manufacturer.

  • Microsoft always treated linux and foss with such disdain while under Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer. Their current CEO is an outlier, openly embracing and extending foss and linux. After years of abuses from Gates and Ballmer, many people in the linux community won't be so quick to trust them.

  • Big corps love A/B testing, slow rollouts and geo-restricted features. You might be in a different group than people that get all these ads.

  • Just turn off "show scores" in your profile and you'll be happier. It's a meaningless number anyway.
