Google does indeed use Google Play Services to gate-keep the Ecosystem while keeping Android technically FOSS. Still better than Apple in this case, but hey... would you rather be hanged or beheaded?
Very amusing. I still know barely anything about him, but I'm thoroughly convinced.
I would guess they implement the check against the response, not the query.
Can't believe this has to be explained, but a Journal is almost by definition something that you want to keep forever. Do you want to lock yourself into Apple devices forever? Have you ever heard of Nokia?
No export! This should raise all the red flags.
Ich weiß nicht wie Bitwarden es macht, aber man kann trivial Schlüssel so verteilen, dass zwei Parteien nötig sind um den Tresor zu öffnen.
Naiver Ansatz frei aus dem Kopf: Verschlüssle deine Daten synchron mit Key A. Dann verschlüssle Key A mit Key B. Gib Key B an Bitwarden und den verschlüsselten Key A an deinen Notfallkontakt. Bitwarden kann dann Key B rausrücken sobald dein Notfalkontakt sich ausweißt.
Bitwarden macht das mit Sicherheit cleverer, aber das Beispiel sollte ausreichen.
3 Minute Reviews were good, but reviews are relatively easy to shovel out. Their essays were so bad, I started to actively avoid them.
The Anatomy of Sekiro comes to mind in particular. Competently structured but devoid of any meaningful observations.
It feels like these guys where working to meet a quota.
Reminds me of grace lees excellent essay on how dystopian absurdity like this happens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7O5bBHLnCo
One week in NL and I'm wondering what we're even doing over here.
Also they're just visually bad. The bubbles have way too much spacing. The low-contrast blurry bubbles make everything feel cluttered. When expanding a group, you'll see the same app icon repeated 20 times, while the headlines are clipped. The typography doesn't feel right: headlines are too large, text styles on individual notifications are too similar and the line heights are too small. The scheduled summary was a nice idea, but again it's blurred background on blurred backgrounds. And if all of that wasn't cluttered enough, let's make everything overlap at bottom.
Apple is usually really good at this, I don't know what this particular design team was smoking.
Stimm dir ja voll zu, aber der Trend ist besorgniserregend. Piped ist jetzt schon der dritte Versuch (erinnert sich noch jemand an Hooktube oder Jasmine?).
Das wird alles immer nerviger, bis es sich nur noch wenige antun. Loosing battle.
March 2023 they sold 20M Quests. Half as many as PS5. That counts as "taken off" in my book.
