The Alan Wake 1 remaster is also published by Epic

Everyone having a FaceTime call does this. Every dash cam does this. Every Ring doorbell and self driving car does this. You can do this with a $10 usb pinhole webcam and an android phone or raspberry Pi.

PimEyes does not use photos from Facebook or other social media.

PimEyes doesn't use images or data from Facebook or other social media.

It's a click bait article that's been regurgitating through the less informed part of the tech news world because it has Meta in its title and it sounds scary.

Actually good articles covering it would point out that the flaw is entirely a legislative one, where America and a large chunk of the world simply have zero privacy rights or protections.

Dumb, click bait article.

This is about PimEyes, and databases that hoard facial recognition data, not Meta or Rayban or smart glasses.

This has nothing to do with Facebook or Rayban. This can be done with a webcam and a laptop from 2006.

The entire problem here is PimEyes and the fact that it's legal to collect and build a biometrics database in the first place.

Honestly, did anyone take anything at all away from this article?

I'm jacked up about Avowed, and Obsidian remains one of the best studios in existence right now, but it really felt like this article said absolutely nothing of substance. Basically just, "we're trying to make a well paced game with complex narrative choice", and it's like yeah, you're Obsidian, that's what you do and have always done.

Did it say Fallout 76 at the time you read it? It looks like they corrected that to New Vegas by now.

Yes I do, both are designed to get the user to where they want to be in the game faster than loading the game from scratch and navigating through menus to get there.

They took different approaches in design, but both are attempting to tackle the same UX issue.
