  • Those should be closed systems and don’t need to network with other systems and should be safe enough, its when we start networking that it becomes incredibly risky which is what neuralink is intended to do. I don’t think the average person understands how many automated attacks are flooding interconnected computers as we speak and you’re dropping someone’s brain into that and we don’t understand the scope of what can be done intentionally or unintentionally, it’s not outside the realm of possibility an automated attack trying to rapidly port scan and compromise a neuralink could overwhelm and damage the device and cause brain damage or death.

    They are used to measure how far players get into the game so you’ll often see one for starting the game the first time, completing the tutorial, and chapters as well as difficulties. The reason the numbers are off here is likely that achievement was added some time after the game released and those players never returned to the game and launched it again 5o earn that achievement.

    The game uses archive files to package the game files and if one file changes then that breaks all the mods, and since there are several key files it essentially breaks that entire category of mod. So they aren’t as crazy as they sound even if you are correct.

    Bethesda games are the only games I’ve ever played that don’t support ultrawide. Don’t get me wrong I’ve played other games that were released without it or it was buggy but in each case I put in a bug report and within a week or a month they patched it. Bethesda must have so much technical debt and spaghetti code that they can’t do it and they don’t care enough about their players to even try.



  • Microsoft certainly tries it’s best to keep you locked into their ecosystem by making it inconvenient but not impossible to leave though that’s not the real reason, it’s security. Businesses and especially governments are scared of nation state hackers contributing malicious code to open source products and falsely assume it’s safer to use closed source software because those incidents aren’t public. There’s so much great software out there I’d love to use and the first question I’m asked when I bring it up is can you prove China hasn’t contributed code?


  • Businesses shouldn’t be allowed to purchase residential houses, they can do apartments but no family homes, even if it’s split.

    Political donations should be illegal except from a private civilian who must follow all rules and limitations. If a corporation thinks a specific politician is in their best interest the corporation’s then the only option should be employees should be the ones to donate their personal money up to their limit and not funded from the company itself, a business or pact should have no sway in an election and should only be influenced by individual voters. That way the individual can decide if that politician is best suited for the country or just their business.
