8·1 year agoIt’s also worth giving them the benefit of a doubt. It might be just a bug or an oversight.
I don’t see how player data even would be worth risking GDPR fines. But at least you don’t have to worry about it.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) gives individuals the right to ask for their data to be deleted and organisations do have an obligation to do so, except in the following cases:
- the personal data your company/organisation holds is needed to exercise the right of freedom of expression;
- there is a legal obligation to keep that data;
- for reasons of public interest (for example public health, scientific, statistical or historical research purposes).
You can’t delete your account if you’re banned? Seems a bit iffy.
Mint flavored all the way through, baybeh!
Yeah. I looove the diarrhea I get from eating tubes of mint toothpaste.
13·1 year agoWhich I think is kinda weird decision since they could’ve just hidden a setting that unlocks all addons in the options. But maybe they were so incompatible at the time that it wasn’t worth the headache.
Not an expert but as I’ve understood it it’s pretty similar to Fennec, less tracking and more private than your regular Firefox. I don’t know anything about either ones development team size or activity either so I can’t recommend one over the other. Hopefully someone with more knowledge can chime in.
Same for Firefox forks, Mull and Fennec.
My understanding is that USB-C as a standard is pretty all over the place. Some can fast charge etc. So my guess is that Apple will come up with some superduper performance USB-C or they’ll at least present it as such. And why not sooner? Because they were in the lab perfecting it.
The biggest wtf in this is that tweeting, a term that’s been ingrained into modern lexicon, is becoming irrelevant. That’s like the greatest advertisement you can have for your platform.
That’s why I don’t use password manager and learn every unique randomly generated 22-character password by memory. I can’t remember my mother’s name but at least I can log into myspace.
Why don’t you like Mozilla?
8·1 year agoI think everyone in the ActivityPub hopes Mastodon is the next Twitter but other than that, it’s a tie between the all three. I think Bluesky has the best chance since it has the cleanest plate but it’ll absolute turn into a shit hole like the rest.
Cohost would be cool.
If your problem is with getting beaten in the streets you could just wait for it to arrive on the streaming platforms. That’s anyway when the good quality torrents come out. And if for some reason the movies aren’t released in your region, you could always access them through VPN or there are also other solutions.
I don’t really buy the demo effect in this day and age when there’s let’s plays of every game and they’re more accessable than torrenting a game. I’ll admit that some percentage will buy games/movies/media after torrenting so there can be a slight positive effect when it comes to sales. But at the end of the day, people just want to consume everything for free.
I’m not arguing for lost profits, I don’t really care except for the writers and other creatives should get paid. But pirates should just admit that they want shit for free, this holier-than-thou act is annoying and crumbles at the first step. Before arguing for the ethicality maybe come up with a solution or at least disapprove the new media piracy. Because that’s a huge, huge side-effect. More like the effect and media preservation is tacked on positive side effect.
Except piracy peaks at the recent releases. That isn’t about media preservation, it’s about seeing the new shit for free.
For some hard to impossible find stuff it can be useful but that’s not what it’s mostly used for.
I’d presume someone like EU would be interested in this.
That game seems pretty loved, I wouldn’t be that surprised about a remaster. Though it would have to be a pretty barebones if it can’t compete with a ten year old release.
