That’s something I’d want to use on a dumb phone as soon as it’s out of beta.

And soon Veilid

I hadn’t even thought of it from this angle. That’s a hard stop for me right there.

Any flip phone you can basically hook up to bitpim or a cellebrite or whatever and copy its entire contents in a matter of seconds. There’s no challenge. There’s no security whatsoever.

Arrrrrrr

This was my first question too! I thought heat makes them wear out faster.

Interesting. I’ll have to look for that. I don’t believe I’ve actually seen the prompt yet.

Goddammit… Right after I got the lifetime pass…

Ooooh. I see now.

I can’t provide a solution to a drm issue here.

I think Calibre can convert en masse. May be mistaken.

Can’t wait till they get the ability to decrypt all the shit we’ve been sending over signal. Shits gonna get real interesting.

They’re just storing that shit up, waiting for the day…

It’ll be a bloodbath.

“Studies published in the 1990s concluded that D.A.R.E. had little to no effectiveness in preventing drug use in elementary, middle, or high school students, and may actually lead to increased drug use.” https://www.britannica.com/procon/DARE-Drug-Abuse-Resistance-Education-debate

Never tried. I’m a ps guy now, but the point is that there shouldn’t be region codes to begin with.

Anywhere I’ve ever seen a region code to be changeable you only get to change it a certain number of times before you get stuck in a region. This is why you’ll find TBD players that have been firmware flashed to be regionless.

Uh, we kinda tricked rocks into thinking using lightening and learned to use rocks to make AI…

They’re the Disney of gaming, really.

So, this is a basic security principle. If the system of access is too “secure” or too inconvenient, people will create workarounds.

Need keys for all the doors every second of every day? You’ll find duct tape on all the latches.

Password is 15 characters and changes every 60 days? You’re going to find post-its under keyboards.

Spread all digital content across 8 streaming providers that cost about $180/y? Torrent time.

Nintendo wants to brick users for trying to play an out of region game they paid for? They’ll never pay again and will reverse engineering your shit out of spite.

Same thing we saw with the music industry utterly failing to embrace internet distribution. Limewire and bearshare are their fucking lunch.

When will they learn to just make access easy? People, generally, would rather pay than pirate but when you start making shit difficult, nobody wants to play your games anymore and you see massive losses.

Meet your customers where they’re at!

There’s another way to egg?

Huh… I do this too. I like the box to be balanced when I take it outta the fridge.

Funny, I experimented with DDG, and they gave me a wikiHow with instructions on how to spend your final days if you know you’re dying. I guess the search engine makes all the difference.

Yes. This is why I’ve disabled it repeatedly when it supplants my assistant.

If they remove automation, well, that was the one thing standing between me and de-googling.
