Ah, PC Gaming Wiki, what a fantastic resource. Made realize how many games in my libraries are actually DRM-free

I’d love for some big regulatory body forcing them to word it better and more clearly.

This is where the Heroic Games Launcher comes in, it only downloads the game itself, no Epic Games Launcher to be seen

I do like the mechanic though. Really forces you to adapt your playstyle. Some enemies are slow enough for it to not matter, and then with others it might actually be better to take some armor off, so you can dodge their attacks better.

Yeah, I don’t remember there being any pointers about equip load. On one hand it makes perfect sense, put heavy armor on and you’re slower. But on the other hand, it’s a video game, so many players wouldn’t expect it and then spend hours trying to figure out why their controller rumbles when they roll

The first Dark Souls is pretty clunky compared to modern games though, to be fair

I still don’t get how cramming 108MP on this tiny of a sensor is going to help anyone with anything

Fossify Contacts, perhaps

If only they could somehow have a webcam point at their desk to show you what they’re drawing

0AD, so good

Have you told your contacts, at least?

I love this genre so much, I don’t know why

Many apps share some data right at the start of the app though, before the consent form even pops up.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Outlook did that

They do provide an apk outside of the Play Store, that uses a Web Socket for push notifications. Not he best way of going about it, but hey, it exists.

You’re hitting the nail directly on the head.

Not knowing what’s going on being a bad thing is precisely my whole point

Seems like a few countries should go over their laws again and prohibit those models from being sold. I don’t know what else would be effective

Wait… what? What???

Do whatever you want, but again, make sure your contacts can make an informed decision about it.

Every website that does this, repeat after me:

PROGRESSIVE ENHANCEMENT

Take Signal to Matrix for example. They use different encryption protocols, which means a message sent from one end has to be decrypted, and then re-encrypted with the protocol of the recipient before they can actually receive it.

So basically, your encryption is not very e2e anymore, and the fact that someone can set this up, effectively giving encryption keys to a third party without their contacts being able to do anything about it is pretty fucked.

Oh, and different TOS between different services also come into play.

So if you do this, at least tell your contacts about it, so they can make an informed decision about whether or not that’s okay for them.
