Still no plans/pricing for Proton Pass Family (only the full proton suite).
Proton is missing many users with this simple lack of effort; not everyone wants drive, vpn, etc.
Some folks just want a password manager for the immediate and extended family; and often times we are willing to just pay a few bucks extra per month and not worry about helping these people after they get hacked, due to terrible passwords.
As a direct consequence of the European Union’s Digital Markets Act (DMA), the Google Play alternative Aptoide is now ready to take on iOS as well. The closed launch will take place tomorrow, and new users will need an invitation to join. Between 500 and 1,000 daily invites will be issued in the first stage....
I am more excited that Apple is being forced to allow other browser engines on iOS.
In 2024 I should not be forced to browse ad riddled websites that risk seizures upon loading, and further redirecting you to more shit when you try to close it, on a $1000 handheld computer.
Give us a browser engine that supports proper extensions, not this shit that is as old as the original iPhone!
I don’t mean that it’s been around for a long time, but the lack of innovation on it.
Plugins in browsers have been a crucial function for years and available on Android. The only reason they’re not on iOS is because Apple forces all browsers to use WebKit instead of Gecko/Blink/etc, like they do everywhere else.
I’ve been debating for a while to switch windows to Linux and see how well it works for my games, thanks Microsoft for finally pushing me to do it!
Only thing keeping me on windows has been games (all other development use is far easier on Linux); but with the work that happened with Steam Deck, many games are now fully functional on Linux.
Exactly what I was wondering; it always had a single tail, are they just fist pumping into the air that they’re finally being deep throated by an alein?
The Entertainment Software Association had pushed for the exemption for game consoles, arguing that including them would have made it easier to add chips that allow people to play pirated games.
What a load of utter shit. It would allow consumers to fix their things without dealing with crooks. Take a good look at Asus, they’re only the latest example.
On April 15, President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev signed into law amendments and additions passed by Kazakhstan’s parliament on April 11 on legislative acts and
That is a lot of words, seems like the main points are:
Restoration of criminal liability for minor health harm and battery, with potential fines or up to two years’ imprisonment.
Reclassification of beating as a criminal offense, punishable by up to 50 days in jail.
Tougher stance on torture, with acts of extreme cruelty now punishable by up to seven years’ imprisonment.
Enhanced measures against domestic violence, including isolation orders and a specialized police unit.
Life imprisonment for severe crimes against minors, such as murder, rape, or sexual assault.
Introduction of criminal liability for sexual harassment of individuals under 16.
Increased sentences for child abduction and illegal deprivation of minors’ liberty.
No reconciliation exemption for crimes against minors, aiming to protect victims from returning to abusive situations.
New regulations to combat minor suicides, bullying, and cyber-bullying, with parental accountability for young perpetrators.
Establishment of support systems, including a call center for family issues and Family Support Centers, with mandatory psychological assistance for offenders.
Overall seems like it is adding a lot of great things; hopefully without any loopholes
TLDR:****- China’s president Xi wants to maintain an alliance with Putin’s Russia, while also knowing that close ties with a pariah puts at risk his stable ties with the West which he needs to help his ailing economy....
On the outside, the specs seem really good for the price. Hall effect joysticks and triggers are quite nice. Battery is good. 7840U is as good as you can get in a handheld.
But will they try to charge you $200 for a cosmetic scratch that now warrants a screen replacement and paying for shipping without fixing the original manufacturer defects?
My old $200 Motorola G9 Power phone lasted almost 4 years with only very minor scratches. Obviously in that period I have dropped it a few times getting out of the car, where the phone sometimes work itself out of my pant pocket while I drive, and then it slips out when I get out of the car. But no problem on my previous phones,...
why do phones have glass backs And all the top results explain why in a single sentence: wireless charging.
You can’t have wireless charging with metal backplates, hence the glass, which is often not your ordinary glass but things like gorilla glass which is much harder to crack.
I know it still sucks; I have an iPhone 12 that was still in great condition after 4yrs, never used a case on it; but one day at the pool of my son recording a video and dropping it just right, cracked the back. I just stuck a dbrand sticker onto the back to hold the glass in place and it continues to work without issue!
This is why I refuse to use any download buttons on websites for FOSS apps; if it’s FOSS, it has a link to the source, which has releases, and is the safest way to ensure you’re getting what you actually want.
Short version of this interview is that nothing is changing, other than they’re going to be asking a flat fee “$5-20” for the app, rather than relying on donations. All donation platforms have been closed. However, if you choose not to, as Louis says “that’s between you and your God”....

Credit grinding is only possible on high level missions, which are easier done with the unbalanced weapons. Even then on average you will extract with 5-10 credits per mission, which makes the 1000 point buy-in take ~150 missions to complete, ranging from 25-40min per mission.
So you estimate someone playing an average of 30min per mission * 150 missions = 75hrs of play time (if you’re lucky to survive and extract each mission that is).
Or someone can pay $10 and instantly have access to those clearly over powered weapons.
This is by definition a setup of micro transactions, which is weighted to put players who don’t no life the game to feel like they have to keep buying credits to get usable gear.
