I like the idea behind Tile, but there've been so many times where the tile I had was sitting within 3 ft of me but my phone couldn't locate or ping it.

ah, nice. Can't remember if it was Hive or a different faction, but while playing the core game of D2, I thought it was nice because the environment you dealt with them reminded me a lot of Alien (without the xenomorph, obviously). I t

Is it? I only played Destiny 2 and from the parts I really got into (pre-expansions), I didn't get a very medieval fantasy vibe at any points. Most of the architecture was fairly modern or alien. Was nice though. Anthem has some buildi

If that were the case, why didn't Microsoft's WMR partners blow everyone away (pretty sure 100% have used inside out tracking which prevents the station setup of Vive/Rift plus the lower barrier to entry PC specifications)? I

They have announced xCloud, yes, but have they announced the business model/pricing? So far, pretty sure the answer is no. So it may be a subscription, but it may also end up being akin to renting a VM with GPU in Azure. Time will tell

can't speak for Steam Link because I have one, but it was more headache than it was worth to get running. That said, I had my Bootcamped MBP with a XB1 controller connected over Bluetooth and any input lag was negligible with the Assas

I used the precursor of Stadia, Project Stream. There were moments where the video went fuzzy, but for >95% of the time, it ran fantastic. My gaming PC setup is an i5/16GB RAM/GTX 1080 and it stutters more than the stream did (

Game Pass works because you're essentially temporarily unlocking a library of games to be downloaded to your device. It really isn't an indicator they're moving in the same direction as Stadia. It is kind of another beast alt

Yeah, I appreciate the various view points and items shared in my feed from both conservative/liberal viewpoints have been wrong (almost consistently so). I think the real bummer is when you present the actual video of what the person

it really goes to show how different all of our feeds are based on who we are friends with (and of those, who we interact with the most). Anecdotally, I have 3 people who will share any "conservative" attack meme (at this point, I

which browser are you using? From the anecdotes here, it looks like Firefox works on at least Debian and Fedora, so maybe Firefox does something with the user agent to prevent saying what platform it is on.

presumably iOS as well, though in both cases they have native Chase apps which they'll push you towards.

This is looking at Alexa, most likely in smart speaker or some variant form, as the endgame which I don't think it is. My guess is that it and its competition is more or less a MVP to use audio for input and output and to understand ho

haha, never heard of that before but that's comical. The socks on the statue is gold.

Dunno, seems to me a subset definitely took ethics in games journalism to an extreme. Are they the most vitriolic? Don't know. I tend to avoid such groups so I can't say. But they definitely made a bit of noise.

I was being a bit facetious with the initial suggestion, honestly. Mostly poking at color being used as a universal indicator, and then you have a case like Razer where they introduce green to be complementary to their laptop's color s

pulling my MacBook Pro out of my backpack to look, it looks like they aren't fans of iconography to say what a port is capable of either. Can't remember if my old 2013 MBP had the icons or not, but my current one for sure doesn&#x

or port color. We've used blue and red at least, guess it is time for green (in which case, confusion for the Razer Blade users).

My hope is that Type-C is going to be all of those things so that in the future, I only need one kind of cable (until the inevitable new plug that supplants it, but hopefully universally used as well). Currently, I have to pay attention to

this on so many levels. Thankfully they'll eventually fall back to the "click the images of _object_ until there are no pictures left with a(n) _object_" in it, but those clicking block ones of a specific picture are super fr

I imagine they share proof of concept 100% of the time, and if that is the case, I’d say it varies: target a window, say 2 months. At that point, show progress on the bug to Google (or whoever). If at the 2 month mark it is obvious it was l

There are cases that I'm all for bashing Google when they don't give the company they're targeting enough time to patch something (recently, seems mostly directed at Microsoft). This isn't one of those cases. They seem t

Okay, how about this: it’d be like granting an entity (Spotify) the ability to put signs (advertisements) in your yard (browser window), and then when they go to do so, you prevent them from entering your yard (browser window). If it isn’t

There are plenty of music streaming services at the same level of quality and within the ballpark of paid subscriber base as Spotify. It wouldn’t qualify as a monopoly. Music streaming isn’t the kind of good that falls under common carrier

That’s a very interesting take. What prior legal action justifies it? This seems more akin to cable services here. For all intents and purposes, all of the channels they provide are served to the home, but they then restrict based off the p

Maybe not spelled out as such, but in section 8 under rights a user provides to Spotify, the ability to serve ads to you is there. At least in the US terms. No idea for other countries.

I used Spotify during a Sprint promo (when they were my carrier way back when). At one point, I received an email stating that an update to the terms was made. I imagine they still do this, but I guess they could just as easily have stopped

by jsgo 8y ago
If the terms change, they contact you that they changed. At that point, yeah, you’re bound by new terms if you continue using the service. That’s kind of been the way things have been since the advent of Internet services in general. I’m cu
