Nobody compares to steam in terms of refund policy. As long as you keep within their boundaries, you will get the refund 100%. Its must have when buying from a digital only marketplace. I’ve even made it a personal policy to only buy digita

1. This is the kind of thing that fiduciary markers/qr codes should be taking over. Shipping labels are only required to be human readable right now, because humans are currently involved. That reduces the screen size requirement. 2. N

Here's a secret. They don't really care about any readings. It's just a tool for interrogation and gaslighting you. If you're doing stuff like squeezing your sphincter, yea they have sensors on the chairs to detect that.

Polygraphs are a deterrence against weak-willed people. If you're so weak to crack to a machine that measures sweat, heart rate and breathing - you'd probably break some foreign actors. It's basically govt LARPing, but for in

Umm, three-letter agencies in the US will send you through personality/mental testing & psych evaluation. They don't want treasonous thinkers after-all.

It’s not that different than initiating an Apple Pay for. Safari on Mac and reaching into your wallet on your iPhone. The framework is there. The UX would be to get a prompt in a similar way and Face ID unlock

lol what you’re describing as a ‘feature’ is actually insecure & vulnerable. There are strong security reasons why Apple mandates WKWebView and bans SFSafari.

You’re taking the proverb too literally. Might be more that the US has recently participated in undermining and overthrowing the Venezuelan regime. You can’t just fck over a country one day and try to do business the next

So this automatically degrades 2-factor to… 1 factor again. The security model doesn’t instill a lot of confidence in me, being that you expect user-interaction as a means of security. It’s already bad enough people are tying their OTP with

The thing with internal innovations are… well they’re internal. A good portion of their R&D goes into things that aren’t public facing. Facebook is in the metadata business after all, so they have incredible pipelines for that. But cult

They really didn’t want to push vaccines on children since there were early studies they would develop myocarditis and inflammations. Really the vaccine isn’t made to prevent you from getting covid. It’s so you won’t die. Children don’t rea

They don’t. At least in western states like Washington. The standard license they will hand out to anyone since there are state laws protecting someone’s immigration status. Now if you want an enhanced license , you’ll need to prove your ci

Paper shortage? We just got through our wood and lumber shortage - the lumber mills being shut down before Covid. Lumber prices shot up as a result and the raw wood industry responded accordingly and generated too much wood. Surely paper mi

It might be because they had patch cycle commitments. Ideally you want this stuff to be tucked into the regular release cycle. It costs companies a shit load of money to release and out of band update, esp when security related

Their definition of "delete" is to dissociate your identity from the data pieces. There's no true way to splice out a person from their database otherwise

Nobody ever mentions the security aspect. The group that would be otherwise e2e encrypted if SMS people aren't involved. Green-texting the entire group chat removes that, so it goes beyond just some visual inconvenience. But more likel

Sure if what you lied about is a big deal. The polygraph room is purposefully sound-dampened. I remember being able to abnormally hear more of my body (heartbeat, saliva, etc) in the room. What I'm getting at is that during a polygraph

Polygraphs aren’t really used for lie detection. Think of it as a tool for an enhanced interview. It allows for the interviewer to have many more dimensions of straws to grasp at in assessing you. “Lies” are assessed as anomalous readings m
