GDPR only covers PII, this is a randomly generated ID that changes on every install on the OS. You can mix it with other info to track a user, but it's not enough to de-anonymize s…

> (weird ID, by the way. 16-digits makes sense, but I would have expected it to be hexadecimal) it's the decimal representation of a 64 bit integer

Why not both? We still need rotating mass to keep the grid stable, which means either building giant flywheels, keep burning gas or bring nuclear into the mix. One of these can als…

What kind of dystopian horror is this?

I'm using one to write this very comment

You can use a Python library/tool to control them ( https://github.com/sbidy/pywizlight ), which means Home Assistant supports them out of the box. In my setup I have Home Assistan…

I was worried it was that WiZ, luckily it's not Their bulbs are one of the few WiFi bulbs that don't require an app to operate (only for the initial configuration)

IMO only the first season was really good, while the second one was very bad, I almost wish they had cancelled it after the first instead.

That wouldn't feel very idiomatic - you can do it but would feel wrong

At first reading the title I thought it was a new camera in the FX line (along the FX-3 and FX-30) and I was very confused to say the least

That's your bias and not the language fault, everything works pretty much the same across every OS, I haven't developed non-UI C# apps on Windows since 2018 (because of course you …

.NET Core 1.0 was released cross-platform 8 years ago though, there's a ton of new devs for who it has always been cross-platform

This has been the case in Italy since 2018, but I'm OK with ISP-provided ONTs to be honest, as long as I can use my own router. The problem here is that the ISP will try to avoid g…

AFAIK it's also the primary IDE for Sony and Nintendo SDKs

that's just the first step for getting Doom to run

So unaffected people can't disagree with it because it's not even a nuisance for them? That's kinda selfish. By the way, many developed countries that have running water and where …

Thanks for the polite comment! > When did they do this? As I remember they did not promise free upgrades, but was forced to provide them anyway for some games because of the backla…

None. My country is supported by PSN and I have an account as I've owned multiple PlayStation consoles, but does it matter?

Even in more recent times, the entire PS5 life thus far has been riddled with consumer-hostile behavior (promising free upgrades and then walking back from it, forcing people to us…

No. They sold the game worldwide, and the FAQ explicitly said linking an account was worldwide, then they switched on the requirement and changed the FAQ. Except it's impossible to…

I don't think they deserve praise, they just acted in defense of their bottom line. The game was losing players and it was being review bombed because of this change, while losing …

For me it absolutely doesn't, that's why 16 GB is the bare minimum for me. But setting me aside, my fiancee only does basic office work and web browsing (elementary school teacher)…
