I don’t really get why it would have a time limit either. Just don’t buy from these companies, ever. It’s not even hard to do. A minor inconvenience at most.

Been using Bazzite. Super simple install, been working really well.

You are right, I had it a little backward. The e foundation makes /e/OS, and they sell a murena fairphone 5 with the OS preinstalled. So you can get a fairphone thay way, or just install it yourself.

Fairphone uses their own custom OS to degoogle things and help ensure privacy. I dont think its perfect but its about as good as it gets. Otherwise you can buy a google phone and degoogle it with Graphene

Do all the harm

Doubt.

Cool, I’ve been wanting to play the new god of war but passed on it because of this bullshit. Time to put it back on my wishlist and … wait some more for a sale, which is never much of a discount with Sony

I agree, but also wonder how many other things were toned down or trimmed out for reasons like this. Keep trimming to appease everyone and you’ll please no one.

To steal a line from Bob’s Burgers, if this game’s personality was a spice it would be flour.

I never pay full price for a game.

Always running sales. If they aren’t just check history or set an alert on isthereanydeal and wait a bit.

When he reaches the land of the dead only give him a walking stick with a compass in the handle. A broken compass.

My hands are tired just looking at it

I don’t speak polish though so that makes it difficult and scary.

Thank you, I did find myself thinking theres a reason why I have the DP cables for my PC monitors which don’t seem to have an issue running high resolutions… But then I’m not running 8k on anything so I wasn’t really sure about that

There is no locking yourself out of anything in this game. Everything is a very intentional design. Look closer, try everything.

Edit: Explore when you get stuck. Sometimes the way forward isn’t obvious.

Callisto was just clunky and no fun. I didn’t get very far because it was otherwise too samey as Dead Space and the remake was better.

I don’t think it does a lot of good to hinge things on the name of one guy being involved like Schofield. It’s made by a team. The OG Dead Space team really nailed it but Schofield wasn’t necessarily the guy bringing in the creative aspects that made it so good. Part of me would prefer another new IP, especially since DS3 was kind of crap, but Callisto kind of killed my hope for that answer.

No prob, this stuff is difficult to keep up with. I’m still always learning and hoping I’m doing it right

I’m not a security expert so my ability to explain is limited, but no, emails have long used encryption protocols like SSL to prevent such problems. However, your email provider may scan and read your emails. That’s not much different than a text message service reading those messages, but you can choose your provider. From what I can tell proton.me is the way to go for resolving that issue - they provide encryption which prevents their own machines and employees from being able to read your messages and other data. Otherwise, your email is basically as secure as your passwords are.

So, it’s not that the message itself is insecure, but the inability to verify the sender makes phishing attacks possible or similar things. I get a text from a random number saying “click this link to pay your bill!” And I don’t have any way to trust its legit.

SIM swaps make it so people can take over your phone number temporarily and then generate 2fa requests to gain access to accounts. Doing the swap usually involves bribing someone or gaining access to a providers database by other means, but its been done a lot.

There are ways to prevent this, but the most straight forward is using a MFA app. Barring that 2FA via email is the next best thing.

I still don’t trust them, especially when they announced they were scanning images. I don’t really care their reasons for it, that’s intrusive. I can’t trust any closed source tech, no matter what they say.
