Buying is owning. You just didn't buy what you thought you did.

Weird, Netflix used to compete with piracy so well that many people stopped pirating altogether, by offering a more convenient service at a reasonable price that was hard for even the most stubborn of pirates to refuse and resulted in a massive boom for its own industry. I wonder what could have changed that caused the people to leave Netflix and return to piracy. Hmm. I wonder.

Thinking Google is "the internet" is probably part of the problem.

Yeah, that sound about right. I don't remember it ever being confirmed what, if anything, was actually compromised by the leaks. But I doubt that we'd ever get specific details on something like that from the government, anyway.

Though I imagine that a lot of ongoing operations at the time probably had to be cancelled prematurely, the consequences of which might never really be known.

If you paste plaintext passwords into ChatGPT, the problem is not ChatGPT; the problem is you.

To any three-letter agencies who might be reading this post, I was uploading Linux ISOs and scientific research papers. I would never dream of uploading copyrighted material…

I'm Detective John Madden with the NFL, you're under investigation.

Yep, slightly different mold, but very clearly inspired by the Stadia controller.

Not that it's a bad thing, either. I rather enjoyed the Stadia controller. In fact, I kinda wish I could flash it to act as a true Switch Pro controller.

Good, took them long enough. Hopefully they also retroactively ban those users they've detected with it, too.

What a shitty thing to think.

As is the case for most streamer-bait games like this. Know anybody who's still playing Only Up?

The tech is even far older than the article. I remember seeing this being demo'd at least a decade ago. Though, it looks like the fidelity has improved significantly from the early proof-of-concept videos that were floating around for a while.
