I never stole anything, but i imagine its pretty easy… I legitimately have the damn thing freak out on me at least 80% of the time, and the person that comes over doesnt look at my bags or cart, just swipes their badge to cancel the alert and walks away without even acknowledging my existence.

I mean, you are disagreeing with facts.

Cause not only is if factually real, it has factually happened,

FBI kinda screwed up the case against one of the Jan6ers by forcing them to unlock their phone by forcing their thumb onto their phone. . Granted, it was appealed and the court declared it a violation of 5th amendment (which is great in general, even if it unfortunately helps a Jan6er).

and there have been numerous other instances of police and authorities have done the same thing, it was not an uncommon practice before that court ruling… and to be honest, with how power abusive police are, its probably still not that uncommon.

So you can disagree all you want. but its happening every day. Biometrics are security theater, not actual security.

edit This isnt conservative media, downvoting doesnt make facts become unfacts, lol.

It’s much easier to steal cash than to force someone to unlock a device and make a payment, so yes it is more secure.

and with biometics, its not hard at all, you just force their finger onto the scanner/hold their camera infront of their face… and hell they probably dont even have to be alive to do it, and you’ve got full access to do everything on their phone. instead of stealing 5 bucks out of their wallet, you’ve now got access to any and all banking shit on their phone.

Biometrics are not more secure, because you can be forced to give it against your will.

Fingerprint? They can force your finger onto the scanner.

Eye scan/Face Scan? They can put you in a headlock and hold the phone infront of you.

You cant be manhandled into typing a password.

Biometic security is convenience, not security.

Need another Roosevelt to come along and take an anti-monopoly hammer to these big companies and shatter them into pieces

Good.

Fuck google. I just wish the other 5 billion people obsessed with it would do the same. Company is one of many that deserve to die.

Exactly. Its what these companies do every time.

and there will be no punishment for it, because people are too lazy and stupid to stop using google, and government is to feckless and useless to properly hold megacorps accountable.

Bet they’ll be “punished” by a 5 million dollar fine (which is like, couch money to google, and would probably be 0.005% of the money they made from doing it)

Same, dude. Same.

That era of internet was special, more special than any that has followed.

Movies arent typically made by google.

Child nudity, even if its medically necessary, is 100% enough for google to delete everything you have with them and to call the police on you, labeling you a pedophile.

Because its already happened

the world would be a lot better if people went back to sitting at desks to use the computer/internet.

Further reason to avoid google’s shit like the fuckin plague.

The videos are never associated with a user’s identity and are deleted after the verification process. Audio is never recorded.

My fat fucking ass do any of this. Google is just as data hungry as everyone else, they will absolutely save it, and feed it to their AI to enhance their ability to generate realistic people.

eehhh

oh my god, that website almost caused my heart to stop because of the intense late 90s angelfire/geocities vibe in the design.

I am in fuckin love.

Same. The people who review are a very very small minority.

Cant help you, it was indefensibly buggy on launch, but its long since been fixed and been shockingly stable for me, even when modded out the ass.

I genuinely can not remember the last crash I had.

Something key to remember is that when a game gets “Mixed” on Steam, eg 50/50, that still means half the people who play it enjoyed it. Half is not nothing.

No, it means half the people who can be bothered to review it enjoyed it.

For every review theres probably several hundred/thousands of people who play the game and dont review.

The best Fallout Experience in the 3d era is New Vegas. Which is fitting, since it was the only one made by the actual fallout creators, that had actual love for the setting that they created.

Fallout 3 was like a collection of short stories all bound into a single hardcover. Because nothing you did in location X, affecting anything out of location X. It tried, but I think the reason it got as much praise as it did in the early days, was simply because it was like muddy water in the desert to people dying of thirst, it whet their lips and throat and as a result was the sweetest thing ever tasted. . Until you got back home and drank proper, clean water again and realized how your desperation was making something bad into something grand.

Fallout 4 is a great looter shooter. But thats all it is, its not a fallout game… Its like Bethesda bought some half finished game and threw super mutants and butchered/ruined the RPG system to enable infinite growth in a system where no one is going to get to level 200 under even egregious gameplay circumstances
