  • Don't feed the trolls.

  • Good lord! O_O

  • What is that shirt, bro?

  • As far as I'm aware, facial recognition works mostly by measuring distances between identifiable features of a person's face, like eyes, nose, mouth, face outline, etc. Hiding major facial features behind a mask that covers your nose, mouth and jaw can definitely confound at least some facial recognition systems. Wearing a mask and dark sunglasses is better, though some systems can penetrate through dark lenses (there are special sunglasses built to prevent this).

  • Oh, you mean they have just become supermarkets.

  • It is past time we get new leaders

    A simple solution!

  • TLDR?

  • I still wear a mask in public whenever the COVID numbers start to tick up again. I'll be rocking it permanently once facial recognition is everywhere, including on other people with smart glasses.

  • This is an article by a person who doesn't understand SOLID principles, talking about programmers who don't understand SOLID principles.

  • I once told someone I was raised by The Muppets and video games and they told me I had a very Muppets sense of humour and it is one of my happiest memories.

  • I hate Google and Youtube. But I also hate stupid, entitled people.

  • Do streaming services call The Pirate Bay a "third party app"?

  • People are uploading their content to youtube voluntarily, it isn't stolen.

  • When they upload it to youtube, it is youtube's content. As I've said elsewhere, I applaud people circumventing youtube's heinous system. But to complain that youtube is trying to stop you from doing so is fucking idiotic, of course they are going to try an prevent people from invalidating their business model.

  • Dude, I don't give a fuck if people pirate shit, go nuts. But to complain about a company trying to stop piracy is fucking stupid. What do you expect them to do just smile and be like ok here you go, invalidate our business model!

  • Are you seriously complaining that a company is trying to prevent you from pirating their content?

  • Maybe there’s even a bit of us vs. them, because market saturation has made the fight for an active playerbase so cutthroat, people don’t want to see a competing title risk siphoning players away from their preferred game.

    This is a really good point, I've definitely felt this way over the years.

  • You're not wrong about the state of live service games, but this definitely isn't why they are getting review bombed. That's happening because the gamer mob are a pack of fickle mush-heads that will randomly get outraged by total non-issues with no regard for the facts.

  • I mean, the mechanics of Highguard are unique, as far as I'm aware. They're a mashup of a lot of other games but done in an interesting and new way.

    Like, I have no idea whether it's good or not, but they are trying to do something different.
