    Firefox with arkenfox.js: Are these extensions still useful?

    Jump

  • Personally I suggest you straight up install Librewolf instead.

    That said, most extensions aside from ublock are pointless these days.

  • YouTube screwing itself with adblockers again

    Jump

  • Give piped.video a try. Basically a youtube frontend that isn't ass.

  • That's one nervous looking dog.

    Shame on humans associating human expressions on dogs.

    Dogs have vastly different expressions.

    I know because I'm dog.

  • 'The Witcher 4 will channel the “freedom” of CDPR’s Cyberpunk 2077'

    Jump

  • Now if only CDPR would eliminate their crunch work environment, and release games when the DEVS say it's ready.

    If you can't afford advertising the game prior to launch, just don't. That's where for example Bethesda saved a ton of money. Released "complete" games within 1-3 months of the first announcement. (Do mind I've lost all hope in Bethesda)

    In other hand, over-promising in terms of what's actually currently out is fine. The issue is when you ...

    1. Don't have the devtime. (Board releasing the game way before it's ready, because marketing is so damn expensive, and the stockholders want it now not later)
    2. Don't have the skill. (Which means re-training all your employees constantly)
    3. Don't have the work morale. (Which leads to talent bleed, further exaggerating point 2.)

  • 'The Witcher 4 will channel the “freedom” of CDPR’s Cyberpunk 2077'

    Jump

  • Interestingly, if they use UE5/6, a LOT of the growing pains of Cyberpunk 2077 are immediately solved.

    They wanted long-distance, high-detail scenes, but that led to the game running like shit.

    UE5+ is excellent for that. It allows for more detail than any other engine.

    Essentially they can now actually focus on producing a GAME, rather than a next-gen engine + a game, as was the case with Cyberpunk 2077.

    So I give them the benefit of the doubt here.

    Witcher is also a world they're highly experienced in, so they don't really need so much worldbuilding work either.

  • Huawei Enjoy 70 Series: A Sneak Peek Into The Low-end Future

  • The same reason they're currently going after big corpo for bundling in random shit in OS. Microsoft recently had to remove or make removable a lot of their bloat on Windows. Google recently had to allow search engine selection at first install.

    So antitrust legislation.

    To further the point: in Chinese brands, this is a NOTORIOUS issue, because they do everything in their power to try stop the user from:

    1. Uninstalling their bloat
    2. Installing any of their competition's products
    3. Not having a shit ton of hidden trackers, which imo amounts to Spyware, even if you opt out of everything you can.

    I know Chinese phone brands sell for low prices because they're selling Spyware, that dualpurpose as phones.

    And if everything was above board, I'd have no issue with that.

    Want to fill your "phone" with ads so it pays your loss back in time? Go ahead.

    Just let the user disable ALL of it if they so choose.

    This is what the majority of internet traffic is, and the overwhelming majority of these attacks are botted, no one goes for single-instance attacks.

    Edit with better map.

  • I'll wait until EU declares Android phones must offer the option of stock AOSP, custom ROM, and OEM AOSP.

    Until then, I'm staying the fuck away from Chinese phone brands.

  • I want to study psychology but won't AI make it redundant in a couple of years?

    Jump

  • Interestingly, and somewhat related, it was tested years ago whether a Robot could bring comfort/social support to lonely pets/elderly.

    The results were outstandingly in support, and this is going into actual commercial usage/development as we speak.

  • I want to study psychology but won't AI make it redundant in a couple of years?

    Jump

  • Eh, I give it 5 years.

    Never say never, because everything is possible given enough time. The only question being how much time.

  • VPS for Wireguard that's not blocked everywhere

    Jump

  • Try Windscribe, they offer residential and datacenter IP's. I don't get the point, but it's your money.

    I erroneously said the IP's are less shared, but that's not the case per the page.

    But still, they get past more ip-blocking.

    After reading where I'm even posting: Renting a cheap VPS and using Wireguard to tunnel to it is also an option.

    Then it really is only used by you.

  • What are good YubiKey alternatives with NFC and biometrics?

    Jump

  • Either Safe 3 or Model T. Model T is their best option, but very costly. Safe 3 seems to be upgraded Model One for 10$ more.

  • Caffeine. For the love of god, why isn't this drug legalized legislated like Alcohol and Nicotine is?!

  • What are good YubiKey alternatives with NFC and biometrics?

    Jump

  • It's a question of what your privacy/security model is. I currently use Yubikey + Bitwarden with a strong main password. If I had to be paranoid, I'd sacrifice convenience for security, and carry a Trezor around.

  • What are good YubiKey alternatives with NFC and biometrics?

    Jump

  • The issue with onlykey is the static key placement. Trezor for example randomizes key positions, so even if someone gets the key, they won't be able to guess the PIN based on greasemarks and such.

    Also more resistant to over-the-shoulder spying.
