That showcase was genuinely great. I’m not a usual Xbox fan but I do subscribe to gamepass from time to time on my PC.

Doom - The dark ages looks incredible

Considering this also. Currently we’re all on my google one plan, however I want to move away.

Any tips?

It obfuscates the user each time you use it and doesn’t log any info?

So while the query is maybe logged on chatgpts side for their own usage. Hopefully they shouldn’t be able to build a profile against you.

I’ve degoogled apart from:

• Google photos - I have shared storage with my family and I really can’t be doing with sorting out the mess when I cancel my 200GB subscription. I do however back all photos up to my server.
• Pixel phone - I try not use any Google apps/search but the phones are updated regularly and are reasonably good value for money. Other brands have the Google tracking with the OEM tracking on top.

No, I can’t use my yubikeys in fennec or Mull.

Embarrassing they launched it and released a statement before release date saying issues will be patched at a later date.

Was genuinely excited for this months ago…

I’ve seen you post this elsewhere so assume you aren’t just interested in gaming only:

Here’s some that I follow:

• Anandtech^[1]: Great general tech website, has some deep dives. It did used to be a lot better
• Chips and Cheese^[2]: Insane deep dives into architectures and chips.
• More than Moore^[3]: Ex Anandtech editor in chief, does great breakdowns of new AI tech and silicon.
• igor’s Lab^[4]: Does some great deep dives into various GPU and CPU issues.
• KGOnTech^[5]: Only just followed this blog, seems to do a good teardown on the apple headset.
• Krebs on Security^[6]: Blog by one of the best security researchers and breaks down vulnerabilities
• EE Times^[7]: Good well written site with overviews on many areas in tech
• Techspot Featured Articles^[8]: Mainly gaming and GPU/CPU, but does some good articles exploring games, tech etc

They released the rewrite as a beta apk at the weekend for testers. So it’s definitely going somewhere.

It’s faster and has conversations on the app too.

Many countries like the UK charge 35p for an MMS. So to send pictures to anyone you needed an internet connected messenger.

SMS/MMS effectively died here.

So if I want to communicate everyone uses WhatsApp or iMessage

Yeah bitwarden will create simple login aliases natively.

Motherfucker you look 30

I have 2 options that work most of the time: 12ft.io and archive.ph. The URLCheck rules are:

"proxy it with archive.is": {
    "regex1": "^(https?):\\\/\\\/([\\s\\S]*)$",
    "regex": "^(?!.*(archive\\.))(.*)",
    "replacement": "https:\/\/archive.is\/newest\/$2",
    "enabled": "true"
  },
  "12ft.io.": {
    "regex": "^.*$",
    "replacement": "https:\/\/12ft.io\/$0"
  },

This basically brings up 2 buttons on the urlcheck sheet an I can pick either to proxy it.

Android:

• Nexdns.io^[1] - Open source DNS provider with DNSSEC and over TLS. Then can also block ads at the DNS level. I don’t actually use the app, I apply it at the system level with the “private DNS” settings.
• Bitwarden^[2] - Open Source password manager with Yubikey auth and stores TOTP.
• Imagepipe^[3] - Quickly and easily strip exif data from image (open source too).
• Markor^[4] - Used to make local notes of things I don’t want shared over a cloud or google connection. Just a .md note.
• Wireguard^[5] - Have my own VPN setup for when i’m on public wifi, also allows me to access my server/applications remotely.
• URLCheck^[6] - This app is fantastic, intercepts links to remove tracking parameters, unshorten them or even scan them with a virustotal API. I also use it to redirect twitter to nitter or apply a paywall remover.

A good tip also, when you scan a link with virus total. Clicking it will show a text output of the scan, long pressing the result will launch the virus total results page for more detail.

Love this app! Been using it for ages and have donated a few times.

I’ve setup a couple of custom redirects to get rid of some paywalls, redirect twitter to nitter

Mainly use it to remove tracking and just intercept URLs.

The virustotal scan is cool, I purposefully clicked a few links in my spam.

They threatened to leave and the UK Gov called these companies bluff. They won’t leave.

Might actually be a good shout.

Switch 1 had a 720p screen with a 1080p max TV output. That’s approx a 2x increase in throughput.

With Switch 2 it’s expected to be a 1080p screen and a 4k output, that’s a 4x increase in pixel throughput. So a 2x output increase might not be adequate.

However, it is widely expected to have DLSS, which would greatly reduce that requirement.

Companies always do this shit, penny wise, pound foolish.

Big time. Their chassis design will dictate performance too. They will get the best chip they can in a cost budget and then thermal/battery limits will dictate where that chip actually lies.

The steam deck is cool and a great device but the Switch 2 will be sleeker and nintendo won’t settle for a 90min battery a whiney fan, and that has trade offs.

Right but even if you half the number it’s still only on par with last generation with significantly more room to grow and predictable income.
