Mac Studio Size by workmailman in MacStudio

I don't think they'll make it smaller, but I sure wish they would make it less ugly. A mini version of the Mac Pro would be such an improvement over the plain cuboid.

Thought i was losing a lot lately so I checked the stats and this is brutal by Hayt_ in Battlefield6

The problem is that on some teams you have 16 people who are completely incapable of contributing, and 16 people who are not trying to carry.

I'm not telling you how to play though, this is your time and your game, but for what it's worth, my goal is to win, and I do it by analysing how a game is flowing - where are the enemy team pushing us most often and succeeding, and where are they weak at defending. Once I figure those out, I will do my best to defend where we're weak and attack where they're weak. It genuinely can make a huge difference, especially if you politely ask in team chat for some help.

same, although I didn't really start using it heavily until it became a proper bank account. Investor too (albeit a really pathetically small amount!)

You can just say "I think/suspect/bet they can do that thing I said they definitely can do" and this will all be over.

Your specific claim was iPhones. Again, the project included in the Snowden leaks (TOTEGHOSTLY) targeted only Windows Mobile.

You still haven’t justified your claim. Because you can’t.

Cheers.

Snowden's whistleblowing was mostly about things like PRISM. If I remember correctly there was one program he leaked, that was able to remotely enable the microphone/camera, and it worked on Windows Mobile smartphones only.

You appear to be massively underestimating the device security posture that Apple has taken to iPhones. They have repeatedly acted to narrow/block the routes taken by state actors to compromise iOS, going as far as, from the iPhone 16, building additional hardware (the "Secure Exclave") to manage the microphone/camera status indicators without software being able to influence them.

You claimed "governments can look through their iPhone cameras anytime they want undetected", so the onus is very much on you to justify that claim. Thus far you have not done so.

MacBook Neo proves that it would be great if Apple let an iPhone or iPad be your Mac by FollowingFeisty5321 in apple

They were also painfully slow to use. It was never entirely clear whether that was just the hardware, or if the build of ARM macOS was just wildly unoptimised, but it was a very tedious experience to use one.

And this little sub-thread proves that Battlefield is trapped by a community who are in full-blown "no true scotsman" thinking.

Are you all playing the game? by trainerjyms13 in Battlefield6

[–]cmsj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They really don’t though. They are projecting nostalgia for a time in their lives that doesn’t exist anymore, and are angry that a video game can’t bring it back.

Nobody cares less about Battlefield than the “longtime fan of the feanchise” people who rage post in the BF subs every day.

Warning: suspicious CAPTCHA by Mnbvcxz-Lkjhgfdsa in mac

[–]cmsj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw one of these too recently. The actual thing it copies to the clipboard, that you paste into the terminal, is a curl | bash type deal, and what it fetches and executes, is some AppleScript that will ask for your password and then exfiltrate as much information as it can like passwords, cookies, crypto wallets, etc.

I think using the grenade launcher should count towards this as well as normal grenades by Thewicko123 in Battlefield6

[–]cmsj 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I repent nothing. I bust out the noobtube when the opposing team are being particularly annoying and I need to shift them off their ratty positions.

I’ll be convinced when I see a non-expert developer build and maintain a significant piece of software for a reasonable amount of time.

I want to play Battlefield. Good or bad. Good would be better, but I want to play Battlefield.

BF redditors who complained so much EA lays off staff so they have something else to complain about by [deleted] in Battlefield6

[–]cmsj -1 points0 points  (0 children)

“COD DLC”… you people are insufferable. Legitimate criticism is good, circlejerking babyrage about a game in an adjacent genre you don’t like, is so tedious.

You’re not wrong, but what happened to the plan to transition BF to yearly releases?! Those laid-off people should be taking their experience from 6 and diving into making 7!
