- Comment on Research team uses the human body to power wearables — addresses major obstacle of conventional batteries 1 week ago:
Just like it was yesterday: this article is garbage. Toms didn’t even read the paper they’re incorrectly ‘quoting’.
- Comment on Steam games will now need to fully disclose kernel-level anti-cheat on store pages 3 weeks ago:
Add a clause to the contract between steam and the developer requiring the dev to reimburse steam for refunds due to post-sale changes (ie, from that specific ‘accept, decline, refund’ option). If the dev doesn’t pay the bill, Steam can use the breach of contract as leverage.
- Comment on Starlink tells Brazil it won’t block X until government unfreezes its assets 2 months ago:
Bahahaha, now that I wanna see.
Do it, I’ll get the popcorn
- Comment on Starlink says it will block X in Brazil 2 months ago:
I guess SpaceXs board would like to keep their Brazilian business license, and not face arrest warrants coupled with extradition requests…
It plans to take legal action instead.
The Supreme Court has already backed the decision. Good luck with that.
- Comment on FCC Eyes Making Carriers Unlock All Phones Within 60 Days Of Purchase 4 months ago:
This is still a thing in the US?
Canada abolished that crap years ago… Phones are sold unlocked, and any remaining locked phones are required to be unlocked free of charge just by asking the Carrier.
- Comment on South Korean ISP 'Infected' Torrenting Subscribers with Malware 4 months ago:
I’d be curious to know more about the methods used.
Did they somehow spread an infection through the bittorrent protocol, or was there an alternate route used?
How exactly did the malware arrive on consumer devices?
- Comment on Android apps will soon let you use your face to control your cursor 6 months ago:
I’m picturing a lineup of people with extreme duck-face; pushing their lips around to move a cursor on their screens…

According to the indictment, Ding, who was hired by Google in 2019 and had access to confidential information about the company’s data centers, began uploading hundreds of files into a personal Google Cloud account two years ago.
Lmao. Stole googles trade secrets, and uploaded them… To google.
- Comment on ‘Our Flag Means Death’ Canceled After Two Seasons at Max 10 months ago:
In an interview tied to the Season 2 finale, Jenkins broke down his plans for a potential third season of the show, which he believed should be the show’s last.
“I love things in threes,” he said. “That first act, second act, third act structure is so satisfying when it is done well, and you don’t overstay your welcome. I think this world of the show is a big world, and if the third season is successful, we could go on in a different way. But I think for the story of Stede and Ed, that is a three-season story.”
Seems he had a plan and it was slated to end next season anyway.
Would have been nice to finish it out.

Or use an adblocker.
