Of course, a mount like this would have been part of an achievement or an in-game event. Now its just “open your wallets”

i get that, but adding a gyro is really, really minor, just a couple modules on a PCB

whether they like it or not, it should still be included on a “premium” product, when the Wii U controllers had it!

really a cool tech, cant imagine how it would work. Could definitely make walking in VR a lot less cumbersome.

bad decisions, like making a truck that looks like… that…

Mozilla, the company behind Firefox and Thunderbird, has talked a lot in recent years about the unfair advantages that platforms give to their first-party web browsers. Platform Tilt is a new effort from Mozilla to show how Firefox and other third-party browsers stack up against Chrome on Android, Safari on iPhone, and other platform pairings.

Mozilla said in a blog post, “There’s a long history of companies leveraging their control of devices and operating systems to tilt the playing field in favor of their own browser. This tilt manifests in a variety of ways. For example: making it harder for a user to download and use a different browser, ignoring or resetting a user’s default browser preference, restricting capabilities to the first-party browser, or requiring the use of the first-party browser engine for third-party browsers.”

Mozilla is now outlining these “tilts” in a new “Platform Tilt” issue tracker database, while encouraging other web browsers to publish their concerns in a similar fashion. The main purpose is to call more attention to how platforms like iOS and Windows favor their own web browser over the competition, which is useful information in the various antitrust legal actions against Apple, Microsoft, and other big tech companies.

There are ten issues listed with Apple, including the Apple App Store forbiding third-party browser engines, no option to import browser data on iPhone and iPad from other web browsers, and difficult beta testing. On Android, Mozilla points out it can’t import browser data, some features open Chrome instead of the default web browser, and Google search results on Android are worse.

Mozilla also highlighted three issues with Microsoft. The process for setting the default browser on Windows is still difficult, and some Windows features forcibly open links in Edge instead of the default web browser. Microsoft also reverts the default browser to Edge during some Windows setup interactions. Most of those issues were recently made illegal by the European Union, but Microsoft is free to continue doing them in other regions, like the United States.

The new database is a bit like Mozilla’s WebCompat project, which documents the problems that popular websites have in Firefox and other less-popular web browsers. However, instead of specific sites creating a worse experience for Firefox users, Platform Tilt is about software platforms creating a worse experience.

You can check out the full Platform Tilt database at the source link below. It will likely continue to be updated as Mozilla sorts through its issue trackers.

Thats great news, but the proof of the pudding is in the tasting, and we will have to see if Google makes any parts for their phones available. I havn’t heard of Google… digitally keying their parts the way Apple does.

interesting chip, but since its faster but no more power efficient, not sure how usefull it will be for mobile devices. The Q3 already has problems with its battery life, if it had the XR2+ instead of the XR2, it would have even worse battery life!

oof. yea, thats not a good sign.

Yea, if they say “we didnt know what that insinuated”, and there are no other dog whistles, I’m happy that they responded so well and quickly!

I think just changing it to “Infestation 1988” would have also been enough…

Though, “infestation 88” a game about killing nazis, would also work!

Yea,

We mainly print stuff for D&D, and documents. Got a cheap laser printer. Printed thousands of sheets, on our second toaner.

When we need pictures printed, we just go to the local print shop and get them for $0.50 each.

I’ve started double checking the name of each article before reading, trying to suss out if it was written by an AI.

Its not foolproof, but it helps.

yea, i get that, but once you get through the quick puzzle, or have seen the same ship 2 or 3 times, its pretty rote!

Really enjoyed my first 10 hours with this game.

After that it became a bit repetitive, but i highly recommend it!

That’s really cool! It must have been hard to take that incredibly low res picture, and extract this much information out of!

yea, its a beautiful piece, and something incredibly dear to me. Honestly, this is the version i should have linked

Love the movie, always felt it loses the thread a bit towards the end, and wraps up with too neat a bow (compared to the book), but the visuals, the characters, the music… THE MUSIC

I used to be a huge google supporter, and I’ll still take android every single day over an iPhone… but other than that google could go burn for all I care.

Yea, I’m good with 17 years. He won’t see the light of day for a long time.

Oh, I’m hardcore anti musk, but I mean “firing watchdog staff to reduce overhead”, not that musk is financially literate.

If musk can fire his watchdog staff, thereby reducing staffing costs, other companies will want to follow suit. Just look at Spez admiring musk.
