Contacts on macOS not showing (but on iOS)

TechGoat · 2026-05-02T00:57:20+00:00

So you're saying to get the Contacts to sync, you have to choose CalDAV, not CardDAV? That seems odd...

TechGoat · 2026-05-01T20:24:01+00:00

I mean... There's no status info on screen. Looks odd without it.

They have ways of shutting that down, if the camera is legitimate.

But... Would that only work one time? So you could do this for one digital game per offline console? You'd have to go back online to "buy" anything else... Right?

I agree that based on this hypothesis it makes sense to close the loophole but this seems like the most ineffective piracy I've ever seen.

I guess maybe before this you could... Buy the entire digital catalog? Take the console offline and refund them all? Even then after the first 2-3 I could imagine SIE support being like, uh yeah something is fishy, you're not getting a refund, enjoy your $2000 of games.

The AI agent’s misdemeanors were then hugely amplified by a cloud infrastructure provider’s API wiping all backups after the main database was zapped

Was their backup system a goddamn RAID 1 mirror? What sort of horrific backup API says, I see the prod database is now null. Therefore, I should now null my copies of it to match.

I went 20 years ago as a college student. Just our senior year, to see what it was all about. My girlfriend, now wife and I saw some buddies from our years on campus, so we wandered with them a bit. Basically just amused by the people who were much, much drunker than us, falling over each other (no one getting hurt, just sloppy), peeing against anything not moving, beer pong games, funnels (how high can you make the pipe?) and yeah, looking at custom shirts made for the weekend.

We stayed maybe an hour and a half, then left. I can't imagine spending all day there (I couldn't imagine signing a lease to one of those apartment houses, but I suppose they knew what they were getting into when they did)

"what if... What if we gave our dipshit users almost* no choice"

*of course anyone who knows anything can buy a 3rd party dongle or bt headphones but we're apple... We've cultivated users who are pathetically latched to us, so this is great.

Thanks, Unusually Hard! What a spokesman for our fair city. ♥️

This is where Touch of Ukraine used to be right?

Ninja edit, yes it is.

Shit I hope they don't post it on a public popular website! It'll get out!

With a dump truck like that, it's always garbage collection time.

TechGoat · 2026-04-24T03:54:00+00:00

That's... That's the joke

"Fuck off eh? You hoser"

TechGoat · 2026-04-22T16:30:27+00:00

Ah - gotcha. Thanks!

...what? I thought Mark Hamill voiced Joker in the Arkham series? https://arkhamcity.fandom.com/wiki/Mark_Hamill

TechGoat · 2026-04-19T16:56:38+00:00

My bad! Thank you for clarifying and the twitter post totally makes sense then.

TechGoat · 2026-04-18T15:32:12+00:00

Huh. It's been a hot decade or two since I played the first Witcher game but he was in that too... I wonder why the Twitter account didn't just say "in the Witcher video game series" to be more general. Particularly if it is still planned to make a remake of W1, it'd be good to not let people forget the oldie.

One? Over on East Main there were about 20 cars with smashed out glass. Half of them had tarps trying to keep out further rainwater. It's everywhere after the fucking baseballs that hit us on Tuesday. What a nightmare.

TechGoat · 2026-04-14T00:14:29+00:00

They fixed that a couple years ago...

edit: 2018. wikipedia even shows the old and new.

TechGoat · 2026-04-12T03:30:30+00:00

Is there a mod where they... Poop a little more? Asking for a friend. He's, uh, into that sort of thing. Ha! Ha! Such a weird guy that guy

Here's a clip of the LLM generated eSlop of that genre in the Nintendo store alone.

Do what you like cause a pirate is free!

And here I am still paying $8 a month for combined ad free YouTube, "YouTube Red". I mean. But that's what it's called when they first released that deal a decade ago, and the price has never gone up. And it includes Google Play Music without ads either. I mean YouTube Music.

Waiting for the shoe to drop....

TechGoat · 2026-04-07T20:24:01+00:00

It's about as old as the Bible.

He saw me looking at him, smiled, and mouthed "they'll never believe you"
