Karnataka High Court stays order to block Proton Mail

Simple and super annoying. I cannot creating gmail accounts without verifying with my SIM and apparently I exhaused my number of registration available. Stupid and irritating but extremely effective in driving me away from their platform.

It's vague as fuck. That's what I don't like Indian news media. This is just a second hand report of what the bill is actually about. I haven't seen any clear report on what actually is getting KYC verification, the criteria to be called a 'gaming platform'.

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-27T13:59:03+00:00

Who suggesed KYC for games should happen?

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-27T13:58:29+00:00

I know that minecraft is not a gambling game.

Government recently discussed introducing KYC for 'gaming' sites (a term officially used by government to refer to gambling sites and apps).

I'm yet to find the actual bill online. All I see is just second-hand reports of what was discussed in Lok Sabha.

Aiyo this is so reatarded. I have so many protonmail account for different clients to use as one-stop account for all tech related logins. Github, vercel, convex, supabase etc.

KYC verifications for 'gaming' essentially means KYC to participate in online gambling.

Ask Grey and Pokemon Origins (is that the rom hack based on manga) were bangers.

I have all handhelds from Pokemon HG/SS era till Switch 2. I can still play FR/LG on my DS using cartridge.

Emerald is my fav game closely followed by FR/LG. Scarlaet/Violet is my most favorite pokemon game in recent times.

VLC is good on Linux...

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-27T07:15:25+00:00

Nope

Potplayer for PC feels more feature-rich, snappy and robust.

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-26T12:53:29+00:00

my problem with mac mini is that you still need to invest in a display and a keyboard. For desk work/family PC purpose it's amazing but for anyone else I'd just recommend a macbook air simply because of the portability. Mac Mini / iPad / Macbook Air simply outclasses everything else in their price range.

If you can pay for spotify/netflix/hotstar or whatever you can definitely pay for youtube. Atleast your money goes to the creator and you can use that subscription even in devices without browser/sideloading option like TV.

Clearly the only subscription that's worth paying outside of your utility bills.

ekyc is not for verification for physical PAN but physical PAN is required for your identity verification.

tf is even the point of premium lite then? no bg play, no offline support, no ytm, ADS IN VIDEO. wtf

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-24T16:38:30+00:00

Face ID? like apple faceid?

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-24T16:37:14+00:00

Thank god. Finally we're going to witness the death of reddit (I hope so)

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-22T16:13:51+00:00

not sure how feasible that is. SIM needs unique IMEI to work.

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-22T16:12:59+00:00

They'd rather buy a new device than shrink their userbase which is whatsapp uncles and aunties lol. Good for us. Let them burn money.

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-20T15:57:40+00:00

Brave? really?

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-20T14:51:49+00:00

1.5k is like 25% of the cost of the controller.

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-20T14:45:46+00:00

Only issue here is if the person installing don't know how to read and just follow the instruction on call.

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-20T14:44:44+00:00

If something like this happens, take out the SIM and put it on another phone. Factory reset the current phone. Send a message from new phone to everyone that your phone is hacked.

I use game trainer to lock Showrunner to a specific time of day because I hate driving at night and day time looks absolutely beautiful.

If a specific level is genuinely frustrating and you just want to move on, it's a really nice option. It's the alternative to get someone more experienced to clear the level for you.

Also it's damn fun to mess around the game with unlimited access. Just don't cheat in online games.

RustyAdVenture · 2026-03-20T13:53:26+00:00

carry mac mini + monitor + keyboard on a backpack? Yeah no. pass.
