Kinda funny/sad that windows 10 forces you to set up three security questions for an offline account. The list of questions is pre-determined, there's like 6 total, and two of them are "city you were born in" and "city your parents met in" as if those aren't extremely likely to have the same answer

An example is the Nvidia shield I have. At the top of the dashboard is a carousel of ads that are focused by default when you turn it on. I paid (kind of a lot) for this device. No reason for these ads to be here other than avarice

I think we need to reframe things and refer to any software that intentionally negatively affects user experience to further some ulterior motive as "malicious software"

I've noticed that if someone names a tool they wrote after themselves, the chances are pretty good that the tool is dogshit.

There is a guy in an amogus shirt in that game.
Hey folks, I've added No, I'm Not A Human to my Steam curator page.

If you've not seen this one before, it's a supremely creepy horror game all about deducting who is and isn't human, using desperate and flawed methods, and the paranoia the situation creates.

No, I'm not a Human on Steam
WARNING. Stay inside. Lock your doors. Close the blinds. Only let humans in. Eliminate all Visitors. An anxiety horror about paranoia in the End of Times.

But I thought abstraction was ivory tower bullshit, and that's why go (simple language for real industry applications) didn't have generics?
Go's json package, conceptually, has better design. It is a product of a design choice that values simplicity and high abstraction.

A bit of a dogshit quiz imo
Really presupposes that nations should exist, periodically repeats same answer worded slightly differently, a bunch of questiin really just come down to "are you an american?"

They targeted gamers. Gamers!
If you're using Windows 11, Microsoft is now surveilling you in a new way. This may already be turned on on your computer, and you would not be notified; it activates whenever they detect you are in a "game", which in my experience Microsoft often false-positives on
