I’ve been through it with LinkedIn recently: account randomly locked and an official ID was requested from me. No way, I managed to get my account deleted without an ID.

Oh right! It’s not a spoiler, it was one one the announced features, I just misused solo vs single-player.

Didn’t play the first one yet, but your insight is very interesting. Honestly, I cannot understand why any game wouldn’t offer the “storytelling” mode. It’s a solo game, just let people play how they want to. It’s like selling a toy car and saying “You can only drive it on a carpet with four wheels touching the ground at any time”. Nope, my (hypothetical) toy cars will be goddamn submarines if I want them to.

Fallout games allow you to be as slow as you want with the right builds. It’s never too fast tbh.

Not only higher, but also more stable since, unlike bonuses, a salary cannot be cancelled for some reason.

Didn’t know that, that’s cool!

Very natural look, to be honest I am quite impressed that it isn’t a industry standard right now and also that I have never thought that it was missing in games. I’d only tweak one thing: for a most natural look all surfaces shouldn’t be “touchable” at all times. We usually touch barriers (such as at 0:25), wall corners around which we walk, some vertical bars, moving objects (doors, office chairs), etc. With these restrictions it would look absolutely stunning in a video game. Remove this restriction with some conditions (character is drunk, walking at height, instable for some reason, etc.) and it would really be a piece of animation I would like to be modded into every single game I own.

Damn, I released my last project yesterday and I needed some of those features so badly!

Great news, thanks for sharing! Gimp has been a long-time companion of mine for any kind of image editing. So happy to see it growing and evolving in such a good way.

I’d might accept to send my ID with my photo, first and last name (data which they already have and might use to verify my identity) but with all the remaining info being anonymized / blurred. But I believe that Persona filter out blurred out images. And I have to admit, I am kinda afraid to send fake data. Sure, Persona is not a legal representative but a third party, sending them a fake ID isn’t any different to send a fake ID to a buddy but still.

Thanks for your reply, there are many ideas that help me to think it through!

First of all: no, I agree that non-verified person should not be able to request an account deletion. However, I am in full possession of my id, password, 2FA, full access to both old and new e-mail boxes as well as to all devices that have ever been used to log into this account. I believe that this is enough to prove that I am the one holding the account.

I believe that I never used LI from any new VPN (I use either professional VPN or no VPN).

As per your last paragraph, I totally agree that it might “reveal” my sensitive data. My idea was the following: if I show myself ready enough and kinda literate about privacy (nothing fancy, just some well-known rights and regulations) I might get them to accept a video call or something similar to confirm my identity. If this case were to be brought to court after all, I believe that my ID data might remain within the jurisdiction of my country instead of be sent to a third party (Persona).

Good to know, thanks! I might try to log in every now and then. And indeed, no way I keep my account after that.

I am not happy to see an ancap here /s

I have a very similar situation: a cat with a severe kidney disability, meds 5 times a day with at least 2h between each. We’ve been using a whiteboard but I am currently setting a smarter solution. My WIP setup is a raspberry pi with a static IP on my local network and a FastAPI app. This way I can also do a household to-do lists (did anybody watered plants recently?) and add connection to local smart lights (effects if meds could not be given with 2h interval before our usual go-to-bed time), etc.

It would only work for us since it is a household only solution. Our cats do not travel anywhere and I do not currently need to check for these todos when not at home. It may be different for you. Good luck OP, hope you will find something that suits you.

I am thinking more and more often about doing it. “professional e-mail about how bad the last dataset was”.

Classic translation problem. It’s never. the. same.

Well, I am also sorry I explain it for the fifth time during the same evening while clearly nobody asked for that and nobody except me plays board games anyways.
