I feel like you’re mixing up some companies, these sentences make no sense in the context of Embracer. Are you talking about Bethesda?

No. Microsoft.

Microsoft has no such excuse. MS leadership has been asked multiple times why they did it, and they literally haven’t said a single fucking word that makes sense.

I feel like you’re defending the wrong thing here. Wondering why MS shudder the studio is like asking a snake why it attacks its prey. It’s a fucking snake. That’s what it does. That’s always what it does.

Embracer screwed up and let itself be absorbed into the Microsoft empire. They have their IP. They care about nothing else.

With infinite budget sure, worth a shot, but it would cost a lot more than the price of the phone to track it down.

Infinite budget? Bro, I know the exact location. Just go over there and knock on his door. Arrest the man and put him in jail for possession. One less thief out there taking advantage of the fact that the police doesn’t enforce the fucking laws.

The criminals could and probably do have ‘faraday bags’ to block signals from phones as they move them, only ever taken out to sell them along.

They could, but they don’t.

In a world of home surveillance, doorbell cameras, and phones with constant GPS that can tell you the exact location of where it’s at, the police are more useless than ever.

The demo was neat, but it was hilariously overhyped, even in the abstract paper. It was pretty damn obvious that the researchers were just trying to continue funding their research with a PR push.

The more interesting aspect was the potential for better AI video processing, not creating a game engine. You can’t create a game engine without a series of defined rules, and you can’t define those rules without documenting it in programming language.

Not even once.

Market Cap: 1.998B

Why EU leaders People should get off Musk’s X

FTFY.

The company added that it does not “listen to any conversations or have access to anything beyond a third-party aggregated, anonymized and fully encrypted data set that can be used for ad placement” and “regret[s] any confusion.”

That doesn’t sound like kooky bullshit to me. That sounds exactly like what the OP’s title suggests.

Okay, now you’re just trolling. Goodbye.

We also learn in the FAQ that Easy Anti Cheat will be used on PC at launch

I’m sorry, but what part of that says Denuvo or DRM?

(N.S.F.W.)

And paywalled.

From the FAQ:

Q: Does the game use DRM software (ie. Denuvo…)?

A: No.

What “at launch” part?

Yep, that’s my read as well. No idea what he’s talking about.

Is “No.” an over-specific denial?

The GPL is not a China-backed agreement. China can do whatever the fuck it wants, because that’s how dictatorships roll.

We’re not the advertising. Streamers are the advertising. If the publisher didn’t spend money on trying to promote this on Twitch and/or Youtube, they aren’t doing their job.

Splattercatgaming just released a video a day ago, so these guys are impatient.

But, these are exceptions that prove the rule. He so rarely uses guns that it’s novel when it happens.

It’s not an article. It’s a blog post. That’s the problem.

With this change, extensions can “only” alter/inspect/redirect/block 30,000 domains if they use the webRequest API. That’s not enough to build uBlock Origin with, but at least there’s limit now.

That seems like an arbitrary number. Why not 20,000? Or 300,000? What the hell is this limit even for? Even malware can still target 10 domains and do some significant damage. So, what the hell is the point?

Remember, politicians don’t pass racist laws by directly saying they are excluding PoC into the law. They do it by targeting commonalities that happen to apply to PoC.

Google isn’t going to flat-out say they are blocking uBlock Origin. They are going to do it by implementing “security features” that just so happen to target only uBlock Origin.
