- Comment on Steam Deck / Gaming News #4 1 day ago:
Why does the PS3 require firmware upgrades for the blu-ray encryption key but not a normal blu-ray player? My standard blu-ray player still plays everything just fine and never gets updates.
- Comment on Microsoft begins turning off uBlock Origin and other Manifest V2-based extensions in Edge 1 week ago:
Don’t forget Safari. On iOS it is the only usable browser currently with everything else just being a reskin of Safari. There are a lot of iOS users.
That is set to change but only in the European Union.

- Comment on Driver stopped in Tesla Cybertruck banned in UK 1 month ago:
If you rock up to border control in a Cybertruck truck any half decent agent will have alarm bells going off in their mind and most likely will stop you.
Once you reach the other side you would be driving an illegal vehicle instantly. I’d say on the ferry you have pretty much no chance of getting past border control as the UK border control is actually in the UK. However, the channel tunnel the border control is in France so if you get passed that somehow and onto the train you are free.
- Comment on Driver stopped in Tesla Cybertruck banned in UK 1 month ago:
There is still boarder control when you take the ferry and channel tunnel.
- Comment on Driver stopped in Tesla Cybertruck banned in UK 1 month ago:
How did the vehicle get into the UK if it is illegal? Surely it would have been stopped at the boarder or customs.

Yes they all look bootleg to me. If you compare the sticker online you will most like find subtle differences. You can also open the case and look at the board which will tell you for sure if they are real or not.

- Comment on FCC hits Verizon with $1M fine for dropping 911 calls, again • The Register 8 months ago:
Why can’t all cell providers have an agreement where if the user dials 911 or whatever the equivalent is in their country your phone will connect to any network if your provider isn’t currently available and route the call.
Being restricted to only your network when another provider might have a cell tower nearby with full signal is ridiculous in an emergency.
