Show 'em, that’ll teach these nasty fanboys! Reads like writing that got you a big dopamine rush.

I agree, commenting “Use Firefox!!!1!11” on every post remotely related to (other) browsers doesn’t help anybody, just like commenting “Use Linux!!!1!11” on every post about a vulnerability in Windows doesn’t contribute anything meaningful at all.

Look, I also disagree with what Mozilla is doing here and yes, they 100% deserve the flak they are getting for it. But - like most things in life - it’s not black and white. Firefox could still be less intrusive to your privacy than Chrome (I’m not saying it necessarily is, but it could be that way). A different example: your mail provider could track every time you login to your account, or it could analyze and track the content of every email you receive. One is clearly worse than the other, right?

Which browser(s) do you recommend/use?

iOS/iPadOS: Safari + AdGuard (+ Vinegar (optional))

macOS: Safari + AdGuard or Firefox + uBO or FreeTube

Is the WPA2 specification actually broken? Or just various unpatched implementations of it? I thought many vendors patched against the KRACK attack.

There is no definitive roadmap.

Let’s see if this really affects all Linux systems or if the stars need to align for this to actually be exploitable.

Great games as well, but I was mostly playing on PC during the PS2 era. Loved their original Crash Bandicoot games as well. But Uncharted and also The Last of Us was pretty special to me.

Larian Studios

And Naughty Dog during the PS3 era.

Didn’t happen again so far, so I didn’t investigate further. The qcode display on my mainboard displayed an error code I think.

“It’s not illegal but please change it” means “it is illegal but we don’t want to invalidate previous race results so please change it now and we’re good”.

Had that happen yesterday for the first time with a similar (AMD CPU and GPU) setup.

Whatever makes him feel better. McLaren didn’t maximize their points (or Norris’ points) even when they had the car, Norris wasn’t even the top-scoring driver when we take the last 5 races or so.

Considering the trajectory of car performance, if you want to call it Verstappen’s to lose, it’s Norris’ not to win.

I had an “Unknown” app using my microphone on the Apple Watch from time to time. Turns out it was the handwashing detection. Nowadays it’s labelled correctly.

This can also be an app that you (very) recently deleted, but as the dot is still showing it’s indicating that the microphone is in use right at this moment. I would assume it’s a system service that isn’t properly labelled (maybe something to do with iOS 18 being so new and it was an oversight), but I don’t know which system service would need to use the microphone.

Is this persistent across reboots?

The part where it says “Unknown” is usually where the name of the app is:

youtube.com/tv is/was the YouTube website optimized for big screens. It’s basically just a different layout for regular YouTube.

OP is talking about YouTube and I can watch 8KUHD just fine on Linux.

At least it won’t be a kernel-level solution.

Friendly reminder that this game ships with Denuvo.

Whether free will exists or not would add a whole new layer to this discussion that you could easily add to almost any discussion as a wildcard. If we assume that using Windows vs Linux is predetermined as opposed to being a choice, this whole comment tree doesn’t make any sense. So let’s not go there.

In my opinion, if quitting playing a couple of games really is life changing to you, you have deeper problems. If your so-called friends can’t understand why you quit a game over something that’s more important (to you), then find different people who do. That’s almost as stupid as American kids excluding other kids for not using iMessage/iPhone. Doesn’t mean your friends have to stop playing these games, but you can share other moments with them. Other games, conversations, other activities altogether.

x86/x64 code is pretty much 100% compatible between AMD and Intel. On the GPU side it’s not that simple but Sony would’ve “just” had to port over their GNM(X) graphics APIs to Intel (Arc, presumably). Just like most PC games work completely fine and in the same way between Nvidia, AMD and Intel GPUs. But they have to do that anyway to some extent even with newer GPU architectures from AMD, because PS4’s GCN isn’t 1:1 compatible to PS5’s RDNA2 on an architectural level, and the PS4’s Jaguar CPU isn’t even close to PS5’s Zen 2.

Other than that, you’re right. Sony wouldn’t switch to Intel unless they got a way better chip and/or way better deal, and I don’t think Intel was ready with a competitive GPU architecture back when the PS5’s specifications were set in stone.
