Warcraft 4?

Funnily enough I just filled out a customer survey yesterday about trying to by an unlocked phone. For all I’m concerned, they’re complicit in Google and Apple’s monopolies for not selling or much less unlocking phones.

Just for that clickbait description, heres the quote:

It might be a situation that never happens for some of them. But that’s unfortunately the price we have to pay for what happened. But I hope that, throughout the work that we are doing, throughout the things we are showing, we can actually win some of those people around – and when they hear someone talking to them about the incredible experiences they can have in, let’s say Phantom Liberty, or the next Witcher, next Cyberpunk, or next Hadar CD Projekt’s new IP, at the moment when they see there’s that incredible value in that game, they will actually reach out for it, play it and enjoy it. – Pawel Sasko

Valve is the company itself, Steam is just the platform

Until they hallucinate and fabricate something that didn’t happen and then nobody will trust them. If you can’t verify that the footage is real, getting it admitted into court is going to be a real issue.

Well, yeah. My first interaction with the internet was a friend’s technical savvy dad who had compuserve.

yeah, I’d really like a thing like jellyseerr that’s easy to hook into the *arrs for browsing for suggested/popular/new music.

Funny thing, I tried using newsgroups for their intended purpose after rediscovering that Thunderbird is also a newsreader. The amount of topics is large (and really old), but the ones I checked out haven’t had many updates. Though i admit I haven’t been brave enough to dive into the alt. group yet. It reminds me of the internet before the web.

It’s gonna be standard practice to pull the cellular modem out of cars when putchased, or at least pull the fuse.

TrueNAS is switching apps from kubernetes to docker. Might wait till October if wanting to spin up something new. I’ve got to figure out how to migrate my TrueCharts apps or find the equivalent when the time comes to upgrade

I don’t know how solvent Intel is, but I’d be willing to be that this capital might go to covering that

If you gave me good odds

At this point I don’t want anything to have kernel level access other than the OS and some necessary hardware drivers. I’m not super familiar with MacOS, but do you know if Gatekeeper or XProtect run at ring 0? If they do run at ring 0, would you consider that anticompetitive? I’m almost certain Apple will move or did move to depreciate kernel extensions. Which means it would be the same situation Microsoft wanted to force as you described.

The other argument with Defender is you could at least have a choice to use it or not.

That’s a game I haven’t heard in a long time

The internet is a series of tubes was right there! We were this close to greatness

Doesn’t really matter, it was the EU regulators that ultimately nixed the API approach saying it would be anticompetitive. I mostly blame the EU for why crowd strike could happen in the first place and why there’s kernel level anti cheat.

I’ve been saying this for over a year. The era of free stuff on the internet is coming to a close. Be prepared to pay or self host things you’re used to getting for free. It’s what got me into self hosting.

From the translation notes on Job 6:23

The עָרִיצִים ('aritsim) are tyrants, the people who inspire fear (Job 15:20; 27:13); the root verb עָרַץ ('arats) means “to terrify” (Job 13:25).

The NET translation

Or ‘Deliver me from the enemy’s power, and from the hand of tyrants ransom me’?

It’s exactly why I really like the NET translation. Getting context for why or how the original text gets translated to English is incredibly valuable to me. Here in this context I’m sure aritsim doesn’t literally mean tyrant, but the people became synonymous with the definition like “Shaka, when the walls fell” means failure.

King James notoriously removed mentions of the word tyrant in his English translations.

It’s why I like the NET translation as it includes translation notes from the original languages

It also makes me wonder what his data is telling him about how the election is going to turn out.
