Thanks. I wasn't able to through Sync so I assumed I couldn't.

Wow I really botched that headline.

That seems to be the most logical conclusion.

Who stands to gain from this? Without undersea infrastructure the lowest latency cross continental communication is going to be through Starlink.

 

Nikolai Patrushev, aid to Putin, has accused the U.S. and the U.K. of intending to sabotage underwater internet cables and planning to destabilize the maritime energy trade.

Citing U.S. officials, CNN reported in September that Russia was developing a sabotage unit with submarines and drones to target underwater infrastructure by order of the defense ministry's Main Directorate for Deep- Sea Research (GUGI).

A Swedish investigation found evidence of sabotage on the pipelines between Russia and Germany. Moscow had initially accused the U.S. Probes by Sweden and Denmark were closed in February 2024 without identifying those responsible, although a German investigation is ongoing.

Media in Norway have reported concerns at the presence in the last few weeks of the Russian intelligence ship Yantar in international waters alongside its coast near critical seabed infrastructure such as oil and gas pipelines and cables for internet and telecommunications.

First good news I've heard in a while.

Ah, wow that sucks! The history is the biggest selling point of this series for me. I generally ignore trailers if I think I'm going to play or watch something, and AC games are always an automatic buy for me, but it sounds like I'm gonna be sitting this one out unless they make some major course corrections.

I just use chatGPT to search now. I have a super-prompt in its memory telling it how to search and to cite sources and provide links and it is so much better than Google even though it's using AI, too.

Yeah they're subsidizing the price to get between you and reality.

My pi-hole blocks SO MUCH traffic from my Rokus. Never buying another Roku again.

That's fantastic for you, but a quick Google search will bring up plenty of articles and reddit threads of people bitching about this and other ways the Chromecast has been broken over the years.
