    This is the only reason I’m playing a pirated copy. Fuck MSFT for releasing Sept 1st and then punishing any Game Pass users who didn’t want to shell out $35 additional for digital content that isn’t even released. I’ll transfer my saves once my Game Pass version unlocks.

    This is such a brain dead take. You cannot compare an OS from one developer to a device from another unspecified manufacturer with no context. No one would claim that a Samsung phone is more private than an iPhone, regardless of the “potential” in the context of degoogling, or the niche privacy switch that’s present on less than 1/10,000 Android devices sold.

    For me the advantage of an AirBnB is the ability to stay in a remote cabin in the middle of the mountains with a bonfire and a fenced yard for my dog.

    I’m not sure why anyone stays in an AirBnB in the middle of a city (although I’ve found them to be cheaper and with better walkability in parts of Europe)


  • Returnal, Resident Evil REmakes, most Giant Bomb games, Firewatch, Hellblade…

    If you liked Alan Wake, definitely give the RE remakes and Hellblade a shot, and don’t sleep on Firewatch. In fact, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is probably one of the most thoughtful and atmospheric experiences in gaming (at least in the field of 3rd person, pseudo action games).

    I know this is c/Privacy, but I use an iCloud Secure Video camera for the doorbell. Logitech Circle Doorbell, no sign in or video sent to Logitech, just processed by my Apple TV on network and uploaded securely to iCloud, where it’s stored E2EE.

    I’m technically proficient enough that I should be doing something better, but when non-tech friends ask what home camera system is private, it’s really the only one I can recommend as “good enough.”



  • I’m a huge sci-fi nerd, and I love the idea of exploring the solar system and galaxy. However, everyone I meet who actually talks about it is also so credulous about terraforming and mining and colonizing. It’s an outrageously stupid waste of resources and mental energy and I have such little respect for these people.

    iOS is the most secure platform for 99.99% of people. Custom ROMs on Android got harder and harder to deal with. De-Googlifying made life so difficult. I finally gave up and jumped to iOS and knowing that I’ll have day one updates for 5+ years on any phone is such a relief.

    Everything is backed up, E2EE, and just easy. I used to think about smartphones all the time… Now I hardly ever do.
