That's what I said? The pandemic excuse was IA's reason for doing it at first.

Link to the tech debt aspect? I knew that was the case but want to know specifics. Also the book lawsuit wasn't over old or new titles, it was loaning them 1:N instead of 1:1 because "pandemic". I didn't think it was a g

Copy protection for physical media was so rudimentary back then. VHS tapes literally just have a piece of plastic you could break off that acted as copy protection. Everyone had CRT's so no one was a quality freak either, really.

Phone bans in schools have been going on for 20 years. Yeah we didn't have smart phones back then, but with tactile buttons kids would text each other without even looking at their phone and keeping it in their pocket. Before phones ki

The other aspect here is you can't copyright an observable truth. For instance, sports companies tried to sue other sports companies for scraping their scores feeds but courts ruled you can't copyright the fact Patriots beat the F

Oh shit. Who owns your photo if your phone does any amount of software-based manipulation to it? Like making faces look better?? Is this how google claims it can use all of your pixel photos in its AI training?

Xbox 360's were The Original Netflix Machine of that 2008-2012 range. Sure maybe Wii's sold more but they only effectively played Wii Sports and didn't support Full HD. Sure PS3's had blu-ray drives in them but people we

Oh man I needed that in the clip for like a dozen interviews a decade ago.

Part all of this BS is sure at twitter if you pull this you might get a decent attrition rate but isn't the federal government known for people never quitting? If they quit, it's quiet quitting coming in every day and doing nothin

Welcome to aviation. Where we last innovated 50 years ago.

Obviously super cool and kudos like everyone else in here. Feel like you could make a pared down version of this with commodity parts outside of the chassis if you aren't going for a flagship competitor. I guess you could also just buy

> I've never, ever clicked on short videos with girls in skimpy clothing doing something "based" and yet it keeps trying to hook me up on those. Even after clicking around very different videos (infosec, low level code, wo

My hope is that doesn't mean you can still digitize media that's on a dying format and that can still be used in CDL. Like if you owned a legitimate copy of a movie on betamax that format has been dead for years you can't buy

What makes it specifically for developers? Why couldn't gamers use this?

Yes you could sit in the third seat, the jumper seat, with this. I feel like one could already sneak something malicious through TSA (this already happens and if you attempt it enough times eventually you'll get through), but being abl

It's piracy in a way that's analogous to ripping like Netflix content. You are breaking away from DRM which is piracy. They also cite the potential to have multiple tokens valid per one ticket which would let multiple people get i

The telemetry bungie used to popular stats on their website is better than pretty much any modern game today outside of like CS2. I will caveat that by saying modern practices require you put things behind an api with a paywall of some sort

Clans, ranked based play, integrated voice chat. That last one was in other xbox live games before it, but Halo 2's Xbox Live brought online gaming to everyone's television room whereas before it was only on the computer.

To be fair you have to realize how much more dependent the global economy is on software nowadays. Halo was a Bungie product, and when Bungie left as Microsoft took it over yeah, the product had loftier business goals that needed to be prot

The author has racked up significant debt hoarding other archival materials over the years so yeah he's a little disappointed someone else just threw stuff he spent good money on saving

You can blame chat for that lol

I think the issue is for the IA that isn't lucrative enough to make it worth there time. Someone already did it for them for free, even if it wasn't 100% as good as they could have done it.
