politics @lemmy.world•Clarence Thomas gives bonkers reason for SCOTUS to tear up settled laws
2·1 year agoWith the US 2 party system and first past the post voting system practically nothing would ever change then. Which does mean one crazy wannabe dictator can’t do as much damage. But also means getting progressive policies pushed through would also be impossible.
But I do like that idea in theory, once we solve our 2 party problem then something like that would make a lot of sense. I don’t know how we will ever solve that, figured for sure after January 6th and COVID that a real 3rd party would gain traction? And yet here we are.

politics @lemmy.world•Clarence Thomas gives bonkers reason for SCOTUS to tear up settled laws
17·1 year agoIronically I don’t disagree with him but for completely different reasons. It’s pretty obvious he wants to use this as an excuse to do whatever he’s paid to do by the biggest bribe.
But Jefferson pushed for vast changes and “revolution” (not the violent type which honestly feels pretty naive) every generation. Because why should the rules and ideals and commitment of the dead hold back the present and future.

Games@lemmy.world•Steam Banned A Horror Game Before It Could Launch, So Now It’s FreeEnglish
24·1 year agoHow could this be confused as piracy. It’s uploaded by the developers of the game?
I don’t feel like the 4000 series ever really got to easily available at MSRP prices.
But on top of that I know a lot of folks skipped the last couple generations because the scalping was outrageous.
I hate it though. They’re not wrong that the companies selling or making GPUs could easily solve the problem, but they just don’t care.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•DeepSeek collects keystroke data and more, storing it in Chinese servers
2·2 years agoKeystrokes don’t have to be in a text field or input. That’s my point.
If I’m on say google. And I type anything into the field it’s definitely capturing it. You know this for no other reason then it would have to be with autocomplete as an option.
Keystroke capturing is the same as keylogging, aka anything typed even if it’s not into a place where you would assume it’s being seen by the app. Aka, if I had an app open in the background and was typing in my password, it would see and capture that.
They’re completely different things. While the privacy issues of US large tech companies are abundant and awful, there is a large difference between keystroke capturing and capturing input via fields. Especially when you’re agreeing to allow them to process and transfer or even sell that information.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•DeepSeek collects keystroke data and more, storing it in Chinese servers
21·2 years agoNot usually. Keystroke info is different than text input, like if you didn’t click onto any field and typed it would only be captured if keystroke are all being grabbed. It’s especially scary if you keep the app running in the bg and then type something and it still captures it. Not saying they’re doing that, but the privacy policy says they might.
The rhythm part is annoying, it’s commonly used to ID people even through things like ad blocks and dns blocks. Could also (in theory) be used to capture what people are typing just by hearing how they type.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•DeepSeek collects keystroke data and more, storing it in Chinese servers
99·2 years agoCollecting keystrokes is very different from collecting text inputted into fields. Keystroke rhythms is even more alarming as that is often used to identify users despite them using privacy settings, or used to collect what’s typed via audio collection.
Your argument that this is no different than other apps is complete crap. Don’t trust any app that collects that information

Games@lemmy.world•What are some great games that require you to bust out a notebook and pen?English
3·2 years agoLove that your example was riven. Was my first thought on the title.
The myst games, their newer game Obduction, the Talos Principle. Those puzzle games all are awesome and take some pen and paper.
Escape from mystwood mansion, the house of da Vinci are a couple others that feel the same way.
Less adventure, more “must optimize!” games like Satisfactory, Factorio are other games that require me to bust out pen and paper or at least a website, spreadsheet or calculator.

Technology@lemmy.world•Does Amazon really think anyone out there wants a PC with AI bloatware on it?English
43·2 years agoGood morning sir/ma’am I’m here to tell you about our Lord and Savior Linus Torvalds. He sacrificed his wallet to bring you a free and open operating systems. We don’t judge what flavor of Linux you use. As long as you agree that Linus saved us from Bill Gates who stole ancient secrets from the ruins of Xerox Parc and has since embraced the evil that is bloat ware.
Through Linux you can be saved!

4·2 years agoThey’re the 3rd largest video game company and the current highest valued company (by market cap, so yeah not a perfect metric) in the world.
They became that big of a video game company by using their ridiculous amount of money to buy up a bunch of other game companies, reducing the competition but hoarding the IP. While they might not be the “only” company in town I think it is safe to say that they’re doing the most buying and consolidating
