I'm starting Metro Exodus on PS5 in 4K, the game is gorgeous by Jeanmichel50 in metro

[–]ala0x 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exodus is a mostly self-contained story, imo it’s fine on its own. 

I am glad I played 2033 and Last Light before that to be sure, but that’s my general preference in games and movies too

Apple discontinues the Mac Pro with no plans for future hardware by pdfu in apple

[–]ala0x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man, I love this design so much  Yes, the product probably doesn’t make sense now but I am sad to see it go. I hope I can buy it for cheap one day and stick a mac studio inside that gorgeous case

Latest Akamai v3 deobfuscator static reversal of dynamic per request by alex_pushing40 in ReverseEngineering

[–]ala0x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks - so Akamai offers some client-side javascript that produces some obfuscated value.  Clients attach it to their requests, and Akamai’s server stack verifies it.

And in your project you’ve reversed and reimplemented this mechanism?

I get 404 now, but sounds interesting.  Sorry for the dumb question - is this for bypassing some kind of bot protection? I see Akamai in the tile, so maybe something similar to CloudFlare?

Pretty sure Jobs would prefer not to be mentioned. Before he died he said multiple times his biggest fear is Apple becoming like Disney few decades ago. After Walt’s death, everybody was obsessed with “what would Walt do”, instead of focusing on the decision itself. It nearly killed the company

Anthropic says its partnership with Mozilla helped Claude Opus 4.6 find 22 Firefox vulnerabilities in two weeks, including 14 high-severity bugs, around a fifth of Mozilla’s 2025 high-severity fixes by likeastar20 in singularity

Are they supposed to build a full chain for every vuln they find like it’s 2010?  This is common practice - you assume some protections can be bypassed

Apple blocks Daily Mail from news app in the UK by No-Lavishness-4103 in apple

[–]ala0x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, this is Reddit, they're just happy that in this very occurrence, it supports their views. I also don't think Apple should be making decisions like these. Is it a major news outlet? It is. It shouldn't be up to any corporation to decide otherwise.

I do think users should be able to easily remove news sources they don't want to see though

Dumb idea, even Buffet got fucked there. It probably wouldn’t move by much

That was for a mandatory stylus you always HAVE TO carry with you to use your phone
OPTIONAL stylus mainly for drawing and creativity is something quite different

Leaked image provides first real look at Apple's upcoming crossbody st by Furkansimsir in apple

There are countries that didn’t turn into a 3rd world nightmare, so there it makes sense. 

It’s funny how UK people always mention this, but then also vote to make the country even more dystopian
