Less sites are doing that to intentionally avoid tipping off the AIs about thresholds and trigger behaviours. The two main solutions are browser crypto challenges like this, or silently diverting flagged connections to a tar-pit of fake pages. The former is easier to implement but the latter actively sabotages the scraped data.

That would imply preserving the original. No, they are having their AIs revise history and its literature to whatever they deem 'acceptable' in their new world order, hence the rampant book banning spree they've been on as of late.

I wouldn't give them that much credit.They likely won't scrap the react native tooling but rather move the compositor deeper into the shell to reduce abstraction performance hits. Their 'choice' of removing version numbers seems like more of a PR thing to limit comparisons between versions similar to their 'last version' stunt with W10.

Either way, actions speak louder than words and with a track record like MS, those actions have been less than honest in the past.

Windows has sunk so low that a partial fix of a basic file operation that MS repeatedly crippled is supposedly an achievement worth reporting about. The bar is buried in hell and the OS struggles to pass even that.

I'm personally sticking with Gecko while holding out hope for Servo to pickup where Gecko left off.

Sounds like the AI slop mixed up a snippet from the MGS5 Fandom site where there's a hint in the manual related to completing an extra operation. Has nothing to do with the OG mantis fight solution.

Sadly not always anymore. Publishers are esuring more and more of the game's actual content and logic is kept serverside, even if the game is supposedly single player. Bypassing DRM on such games only gets you a lobotomised client shell and is a core argument behind the SKG initiative and general presevation efforts.

But they did such a great job of feeding the world's most problematic corporations government IDs and photo identification of minors and storing it in databases ripe for hackers.

Brought to you by the government whose national health network failed its security audit last year, and had 13 million records breached through a 3rd party the year before that.

Let's be real, the main reason they're doing this is to have all that juicy video data on their own servers to sell to AI data centres instead of embedding 3rd party hosts that otherwise do the same job perfectly fine with far less technical overhead. The other is that they can sell video placements in replies hosted in house.

Australia has just the brand for this /s

I love it when common items that everyone generally knows the look of but isn't a strict shape intersects with things that are seldom photographed/discussed every day. Bonus points if its appearance/use requires object permanence in any way.

AI is absolute dogshit at any of it despite being a basic skill even toddlers know. It can't even fix itself without someone manually patching every dumb edge case people find.

I'm not sure where some of these arguments are coming from and there seems to be unexplained holes in some of the logic (ignoring lootboxes because that is valid).

For example, the region locking has been a thing for decades before the internet. Why are keys exempted? Why would they explicitly undo a protection for weaker economies agaist foreign scalpers? I get not everything needs region locks and they're not the most popular thing, but I can understand why they are needed here.

The MTX argument is a strange one because games like Warframe have both Steam and non-Steam transactions which haven't been an issue for many years. What specific kind of MTX are they really talking about here?

There's a lot of articles dog piling on Steam as of late but my tin foil hat observation is that it's always the same talking points that Epic cries about.
