I can’t tell if this is a joke or real code… like for this sentence below.
The cat is back.
Will that repo seriously run until it finds where that is in pi? However long it might take, hours, days, years, decades, and then tell you, so you can look it up quickly?
If i fits i sits
Have you tried a psychologist? They have a lot more experience than a counselor and might have a better chance, but it’ll cost more too. Also they can diagnose things which might make getting the right help easier if it’s something more than just social anxiety that’s getting missed.
I actually did try watching a bit of it, and while I love the idea of it, I can’t stand the length they make it due to the reality tv show.
It just drags on and on.
If they’d made them 30-40 minute episodes instead of an hour I might have liked it.
My money is on 3 months after the first release of a FROM title on PC, sony will come in and force them to create a sony account with crazy DRM to play it.
Then after the outrage from that, force it on all previous FROM titles.
I love the game, that show sounds really fun!
Interesting, had no idea about its origin story.
Also… of course
In June 2006 a Rockingham school inquiry was launched after parents complained of the traumatic effects classroom Mafia was having on their fifth-grade children. Davidoff responded to the reports, saying that as a parent who had studied child psychology for 25 years, he felt that the game could “teach kids to distinguish right from wrong”, and that the positive message of being honest could overcome the negative effects of an “evil narrator” moderating the game as if it were a scary story.
Of all the games they try to demonize, they demonize a game type people have played at home for decades at parties, in person, with no computers.
Brilliant.
90s house party game here, I’m sure people played it earlier.
That said, I think the core concern can be rephrased in a way that gets at the essence, and to me there’s still a live issue that’s not relieved simply by noting that this requires probable cause.
Well ya. The whole thing is really fucked in the first place. It’s very disturbing that it was ruled they can compel biometics in any circumstance.
In a far off future, this ruling would probably even allow a mind reading device to figure out a PIN, which would be protected, because they didn’t force you to say it, and reading electrical signals isn’t really any different than reading ridges on a finger.
Ya, burn in isn’t as big an issue now. For TVs what’s more likely is if you only watch movies with bars on the top/bottom due to aspect ratios that you might not use up the OLEDs there and they start wearing out at a different speed than the content. Then you start seeing bars watching full screen content.
But it’s not actual burn in, you would just need to play something special that hits those areas and not the center to even it out.
It’d take quite a long time to cause this though.
There’s no reason a company couldn’t release the info legally unless it was under something like AML (anti money laundering) laws and you were flagged as a criminal. They legally can’t disclose why in that case.
Using a different OS isn’t reason enough, if they were telling the truth about the legal restrictions.
It’s used to help secure the businesses app yes. It helps with things like preventing resource abuse which would cost the company money. E.g. querying mass amounts of data on a loop to increase the companies bill.
Right, but they can’t just do it without reason which he was implying, and he replied to me with
“Yea but that wasn’t the point of me pointing it out. The point was that they don’t need to resort to such measures in order to clandestinely acquire your unlocked phone.”
In this case he was on parole where they have the right to search him. That mention of blood draw etc, you’re already under arrest and they can search your person anyway.
I’m not aware of any law where a cop can walk up to you on the street and demand they unlock your phone with biometrics and search it without cause.
They need a warrant or probable cause for that, but yes they can compel it unlike a password. It’s still a search and needs to be lawfully done in the first place.
don’t give them any ideas
is this not about pirating if it’s a single player game?
Ya that’s our employment insurance. Glad you were able to get back on your feet!
Many many years ago I worked a job where we had to keep an eye on the call center call queue/employees call status on the phone.
Someone always has to keep an eye on it, so if you need to go for a break, even just to use the washroom, if you’re the only one on shift, you asked one of the team leads to watch it.
Had been like that for years.
Well, we had a brand new manager for our team who was an offsite manager at another call center, and my other coworker was in a very long meeting that day so I was all alone watching things.
I was really hungry, feeling sick from it, so I asked one of the team leads as usual to watch things while I took a break and went across the street to grab some fast food and come back.
Well, while I was gone for like 10minutes, the manager had called our desk (we have voice mail) and realized no one was there.
He reamed me out for having left the desk unattended, and how I should have waited for my coworkers meeting to end which wasn’t ending anytime soon.
Didn’t care that I’d had a TL cover for me as we’d always done.
Next day, HR calls me into their office and puts me on formal notice for it.
I quit the next day. Fuck that shit.
It absolutely can be done with zero knowledge proofs, but it needs to be from an authoritative source.
It could prove you are over the age of 18 (or 21) without having to divulge any other sensitive information, and be untrackable between sites or any outside agency (e.g government doesn’t know and can’t know you visited a site or location that verifies your age)
They could add it to our drivers licenses or passports or whatever which would cover the authoritative part. Your ID is an NFT at that point, and could be fully digital.
Edit: they might even tie generating the proof to requiring a biometric verification (fingerprint) so you can’t give your ID to someone else.
