Games@lemmy.world•‘Stop Killing Games’ Finds More Allies From MPs In The UKEnglish
29·1 month agoMr Sewards, who is a member of a parliamentary group focused on consumer protection, also voiced fears that such a precedent could eventually extend to physical goods, as digital technology becomes increasingly integrated into household items.
If anything, the recent AWS outages and all the IOT physical device failures prove beyond all reasonable doubt that this is happening, and not just accidentally.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump threatens to cut funds if ‘communist’ Mamdani wins mayoral election
1·1 month agoYeah but we’re talking about net here. Most blue states are net producers, most red states are net leechers. Texas might not be as big of a leech as some others, but it’s still a leech.

41·1 month agowhile the US one is at the OS level, it’s just asking you to provide an age that isn’t linked to your ID or anything.
It’s Age Verification, which will almost certainly mean either ID scanning or facial scanning via the device camera. Or alternatively card transaction verification - the OG method baked into all these laws is the one that pays MasterCard and VISA. ID and facial recognition are cheaper services because the business providing the scan service can make more money off the ID or face they scan.

This simply isn’t true. However your first comment about OS level checks is where the issue lies - if you don’t phone home to Google your banking app won’t work.
More like a wet three bean salad.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•There was no need to ever improve upon THIS
3·2 months agoSome cars even have a separate zone for the rear. However I’ve only seen that on touch screen models, so they can suck a dick.
I had great fun with it in the back, though. They couldn’t see my temp on the touch screen at the front, just that the zones had been split, and I managed to get the two in the front to bicker because the driver thought the front passenger had split them XD

81·2 months agoHard disagree. Physical buttons with a digital temperature and split controls for left and right (and maybe rear as well). Automatic climate control that also does the fans. I had all of this on a car in 2010, and it was perfect - I could just leave the temperature set at what I wanted all the time, and the fans would blow hard if it needed to heat or cool significantly to get there.
Some manufacturer’s, eg Volvo, don’t automatically adjust the fans, which is wank. But nothing is as wank as touch screen controls - I fucking hate it when you’re trying to aim at a button, then as you go in to press the car bumps and you completely miss.
Satisfactory also lived up to its name throughout its development.

Opensource@programming.dev•New 7-Zip high-severity vulnerabilities expose systems to remote attackers — users should update to version 25 ASAP
301·2 months agoOne of the big issues with 7-Zip is that it only really updates manually. There is literally no update functionality baked in, at least in the version I’ve been running.


This sounds like utter nonsense.
