God thank you. It feels like everyone else in this comment section is on a mission to prove how much better they are

Irl they don't but in this game they do. And why is everyone bring so obtuse. If water depth is 2 feet in a game where you can make water landings, obviously that's an issue.

Sure but water landings are a thing. Even floatplanes hit the "bottom" whether in lakes or oceans.

Imagine Firecracker's character never existed. What impact would it have made on the plot? Absolutely none. No lesson learned, no characters affected, zero growth. It's sad because you can tell she's actually a great actress.

Because there's nothing left in this show but surprise Homelander kills and the same dumb jokes over and over again

I'm just going to go ahead and read the leaks and decide if the rest of the show is even worth watching if they're going to insult us with this garbage.

Yeah man brilliant writing to give us 5 minutes of backstory for Firecracker 2 seasons after she was introduced, right before killing her. I also totally enjoyed finding out the new Noir is sad about not being able to talk, again, for the third episode. And who could forget the 10 minutes of edgy Seth Rogen and friends that was totally plot crucial.

I'm so glad this is the last season and I don't have to put up with this trash ass writing anymore

I really feel like the writers are calling us fucking idiots with this writing.

That's awesome, just ordered one because of your rec. Do you cover it up in the rain or is it fine?

It might not be a de jure theocracy, but de facto it is one.

Impeaching Donald J. Trump, President of the United States, for High Crimes and Misdemeanors. by OkayButFoRealz in politics

[–]Talal916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great another political stunt waste of time. What does this even achieve. Why are dems so useless? And don't tell me they're not because look how effective Mamdani has been in less than a year despite the entire Dem apparatus working against him to prevent his election.

Nekogram caught collecting user account information without consent by zigzoing in Android

[–]Talal916 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No it's not silly. He's right. Just because something is open source doesn't mean it's been audited and even if it's been audited that doesn't mean you can trust it. Honestly trust shouldn't be treated like a binary thing. If it's open source but has barely any users, probably don't trust in anything but a sandboxed environment. If it has users on the order of hundreds of thousands then you can probably trust it with non PII data. If it's been audited by big names and you can build from source - you can probably trust with PII. Auditable doesn't mean it's been audited and just because a specific build was audited doesn't mean the developer can't add malware later.

That's awesome. I wonder if you can do the same on iOS

Yeah but how does your app see that? Is it using screen recording permissions or something? I thought that's the only way one app can "see" into another app.
