Scoop: I obtained the contract Samsung requires independent shops to sign to buy phone repair parts from them.

It requires:

  • "Daily" dumps of customer data
  • The "immediate destruction" of any phones a shop comes across that has third-party parts

@jsr this is the moderate position, in case anyone is “concerned” for the poor billionaires. I think the conclusion is that they should not be allowed to exist.

This voxel displacement technique for "modern retro" rendering looks so incredible, really inspiring:

@daviwil I wonder how easily one could patch that into gzDoom, for instance. There are numerous retro games with either open-source ports or original source out there.
No, I want to see Descent 1 and 2 with this applied.

Show me your Top 5 , Fedi. These are mine right now.

  • Baldur's Gate III
  • Citizen Sleeper
  • Disco Elysium
  • Ultima VI: The False Prophet (with Nuvie to turn the viewport into a full map)
  • Divinity: Original Sin

This list is in the order of which I played most recently and - with the caveat that I'm only 64 hours into BG3 - these are honestly all perfect, no-notes gaming experiences for me.

Fallout
Planescape: Torment
Deux Ex: Human Revolution (some part of me wants to say the first one, but the sequels play much smoother)
System Shock 2
ADOM

Clearly, I’m not a form purist as I readily include immersive sims and roguelikes.

@c0dec0dec0de@hachyderm.io avatar

Since we’re all onboard with telling off Linux evangelists in this moment, Linux has privacy issues too! If your screen goes to sleep, when you come back you’re greeted by your screen contents - not the Lock Screen for a solid two seconds or so (at least in GNOME Shell, the default desktop environment for many distros).

shoulder-surfing isn’t a serious threat to me, so I haven’t bothered to look into fixing it, but it does always happen and reminds me that something is wrong.

c0dec0dec0de,

@visone and GNOME is a Linux desktop environment. It’s the default on the most widespread workstation and desktop distributions.
But, fine, Linux doesn’t actually do SecureBoot attestation. The other major OSes do. (Yes, you can load a machine-owner key and do it yourself, but that surely doesn’t count as the OS providing it or supporting it)

Doing yard work with kiddo yesterday, he hopped into the wheelbarrow. So, obviously, it becomes a joke and not just a ride.
“Welcome to Wheelbarrow Airlines, where we have a better safety record than Boeing.”

c0dec0dec0de,

He asks, “Where are we going?”
“I’m glad you asked, but Wheelbarrow Airlines employees are strictly prohibited from discussing the location or itineraries of customers with anyone, including customers.”

“Keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times. Wheelbarrow Airlines is not liable for any injuries by passengers who exit the vehicle while in motion. Note that the captain has put the seatbelt light.”
Him: “But there’s no seat belt!”
“Wheelbarrow Airlines is not legally required to supply seat belts.”

reMarkable 2 is more than half-off today on Amazon! But I think I want the Kobo Elipsa 2E instead because it's also running linux and has a beefier processor for when I feel like doing stupid things to it...
