LMAO: local food chain Happy was caught spying on workers and consumers with 3rd party AI (which is illegal in Europe).

They fully rejected the issue, told that they only got the proposal but declined it in 2023. But the investigation has internal details, screenshots of their custom UI, and it was all in use with exact locations (identified).

Then their legal team tried to fk Louis Rossmann (if you know you know) and now he will fk them back.

Meanwhile, Slay the Spire II sold 3 million copies. No DRM, no always online, no $250m budget.

ok, so I bought this new budget MacBook Neo three days ago β€” the cheapest Mac ever.

Just for fun, I tried running Control on it. It launched on medium-low settings by default. Resolution was 960Γ—540, FPS stayed around 40–50. The MacBook didn’t even get hot.

Pretty good for what’s basically an $800 CAD typing machine.

And I was playing on battery. Maybe it would get +3 FPS plugged in, lol, but I’m too lazy to test today. It also had Apple’s proprietary MetalFX upscaling enabled, so the final output was full HD anyway.

Overall, a nice little bonus, considering I definitely didn’t buy this thing for gaming 😁

So, a few days ago I got a very good offer and bought Samsung S24 Ultra. Super fast, 7 years of software updates, not getting hot in games, but has pre installed garbage to remove.

The camera is beyond amazing. Log video up to 4K@120FPS (8K@30) with perfect optical stabilization, zoom between x0.5 and x10, night photos.

Elephant in the room: a lot of AI, especially at night or extreme zoom. Despite 200MP main sensor (and two 50MP) it relies on algorithms a lot. Cool stuff: upscaling even for screenshots if needed, objects removal that actually works (unlike on iPhone)

A lot of that can be disabled in settings, I suggest to switch off "scene detection" and set "intelligent optimization" to minimum. For deeper "native" photography there are apps in Samsung App Store to disable even more.

And there's S-Pen stylus: nice to have, too small to use for real.

Oh, and the phone looks like this: very sharp titanium body, so everyone use them with cases. With the good case it's very easy to use despite the size.

Both volume controls and power button are on the right edge, I'm more used to when they are on the opposite sides. SIM cards slot is on the bottom, so are the USB and stylus. No 3.5 Jack, but BT and USB audio are both good.

They fixed the sharpness in S26, which is rounded again and much easier to hold without accessories.

>be Guerilla Games
>invite all Horizon youtubers to your playstest to gather feedback so it is not a Concord situation again
>many don't like it because it doesn't feel like a Horizon Game
>do a second playtest
>don't invite these people back again to maintain the echo chamber
>your face when they're willing to sacrifice the Horizon fandom to make the game a live service

In the meantime, Russian government introduced white lists internet system (only IPs allowed by them will pass), slowed down all VPN traffic to speeds of 2003 and pretend it's not gonna cause any troubles.

Mirrors Edge IRL

The game industry and IT are effectively dead. They rely on global software and hardware with global drivers. It's not gonna work that easy now and fixing it will make the IT not efficient enough to be financially viable.
