  Such a shame that Coppola’s movie was bad. He was onto something there.

  I remember liking GTA4 but getting burned out on its archaic in my view mission design.

  Zuck puts out this weird “pick me” or “me too” energy lately, trying to fashion himself as one compatible with Trump’s world. His interest in Rome may precede Trump’s ascension to power, but his coming out is not a coincidence in my view. And yes, a fascination with Rome started as so many other things as an “innocent” meme and became a fascist dog-whistle.

  Thanks for the correction, it’s Augustus Cesar. Still, what an odd connection. Good article btw.

  I still haven’t played GTA5. Does it hold up (single-player) all those years later?

  Zuckerberg wears t-shirts comparing himself to Julius Caesar? Why is that every time I think I’m up-to-date on the latest weirdness there’s more of it?

  Huh had no idea. I still wonder how accurate this is though, like whether it can be used forensically as the word “fingerprint” suggests to identify a specific person/private machine. It’s kind of fascinating as a topic. I would think that given that most people use similar setups, similar hardware and software, similar routers and settings, it would be impossible, but perhaps with enough details of a particular setup, a specific machine and user can be identified with decent accuracy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Digital Fingerprinting: Google launched a new era of tracking worse than cookie banners | Tuta⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Usually fingerprint plays a supporting role for example when you do those “click here” captchas that’s actually just giving the browser time to fingerprint you and evaluate your trust to decide whether to give you a full captcha or let you through. So fingerprint is always there in tbe background these days tho mostly for security and ad tracking.

  I’ve been wondering about those “click here” captchas and their purpose 🤔

  So… how effective is it? The fingerprinting. I’m guessing there are studies? Also don’t know whether there’s been legal precedent, ie whether fingerprinting has been recognized as valid means of user identification in a court case.

  Nice storytelling, but clunky combat that I got burned out on fast :(

  Oh wow veilguard got so much flak that it’s refreshing to hear someone so positive on it.

  Still waiting for the ultimate all-in edition of this one

  Never used this. Never cared for it 🤷🏻‍♂️

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starfield's first DLC is one of the worst Bethesda and DLCs of all time⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well with an average in the eighties on metacritic one would assume it’s a very decent game. But user reviews tend to be a lot harsher indeed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starfield's first DLC is one of the worst Bethesda and DLCs of all time⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for the review. Disappointing to be sure. I was hoping to play it at some point and that it wouldn’t suck as much as people say it does.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starfield's first DLC is one of the worst Bethesda and DLCs of all time⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sometimes I wonder whether Starfield truly deserves all the bad publicity or whether people are also still upset because it became an Xbox exclusive and that is clouding their judgement. I know it does affect me for one. I got a ps5 for gaming and I’m automatically much less interested in anything that isn’t on the platform. And I was of course very disappointed when Microsoft outright bought all these huge IPs and made them exclusive to Xbox.

  I’m waiting for the ultimate edition that will include everything here
