Most (hopefully all) computers in industry running outdated OSs are disconnected from the internet for that exact reason.
ChatGPT apparently lol
Why though? I thought impedance of the human body is lower at 50/60 Hz than at DC.
I haven’t, but I’m also an electrical engineer so I’m pretty familiar with the issue haha
Fun thing you can do, is open your mouse and look up the PN of your switch on DigiKey. Filter for components with the same package/footprint, then sort by actuation force. Get a few different ones and try them out. They sell good brands there.
I play a lot of shooters, so my left click is real easy to press, and my right click is ~3x harder.
If you have basic soldering skills and care enough to do this, the mouse buttons can be replaced for less than a dollar each. Not that this excuses Logitech’s poor QA, but my g502 g305 will last damn near forever if I keep replacing the switches like I have been.
Thanks for the reminder that English is dumb
Which includes practically all gun related content lol.
Most gun channels make their income from sponsors, who are companies in the firearms industry.
This is just Google’s latest act of garbage, over-reaching, corpo censorship. Fuck em.
More than just “ripcord likes to have lights on at 6:00 pm,” surprisingly.
It knows what brand lights you have, who’s interacting with it, who you might be with if anyone speaks in the background, what times and days you’re typically home… it’ll even infer your mood based on how your voice sounds.
Unfortunately, Amazon isn’t required to disclose every bit of personal data they take from you, so only so much is known about it. If you consider though that data collection is a new, multi-billion dollar industry, and how effective hundreds of PhDs in data science and social-engineering can be with near infinite resources to develop tools to extract as much information from these devices as possible, it starts becoming more believable.
Here’s a good paper I found: http://arxiv.org/pdf/2204.10920
If you have an Amazon Echo (or whatever they call it) in your home, then you already pay them by letting it spy on you, your family, and any guests that come over. Even if they improved the service (they won’t), why would you pay $20 or $30 a year for it?
No one’s mentioned the privacy nightmare that new vehicles are. Why anyone would pay $45k for a vehicle that spies on you for the sole benefit of car manufacturers and insurance companies is beyond me. Do away with all the unnecessary privacy violations, or pay ME a monthly subscription for MY data.
Nothing to see here, move along citizen.
I don’t know if it’s on sale but BattleBit Remastered is the best casual FPS I’ve played in years. I figure it’ll tide me over until Starfield comes out. I asked off work to play it on release haha
At absolute most, they risk losing the portion of users who use ad blockers because of this decision. They’ll certainly lose less, but are practically guaranteed to not lose more.
They probably determined that the additional ad revenue from those who used to use ad blockers was more than the revenue they’d lose from people leaving.
I don’t agree with it, but I bet that’s happening here. Personally, I’d be surprised if 20% or more of Chrome users have an ad blockers installed. Even fewer would use Revanced or the like.
