Randomly getting Notion email, after having deleted my account years ago... ( slrpnk.net )

Welp I guess this is the perfect example of companies not deleting your credentials and account info when asking for it... I deleted my Notion account several years ago. And completely randomly today got an email from them about data retention, assuming this is one of those "important" emails they have to send out. Sadly, years...

I’d even recommend going one step further and deleting their account, but I didn’t read the post

EA wants to place in-game ads in its full-price AAA games, again ( www.techspot.com )

EA has tried this before, with predictable results. In 2020, EA Sports UFC 4 included full-screen ads for the Amazon Prime series The Boys that would appear during 'Replay' moments. These were absent from the game when it launched, with EA introducing the ads about a month later, thereby preventing them from being highlighted in...

Different portions of the screen

Otherwise it’s too vulnerable to a common blocking technology

I cannot buy fewer EA games.

Not with that attitude

The last EA game I bought ran on the Super Nintendo.

Have you checked Babbage’s return policy?

I’m against the Israeli government’s murder of children and murder of all the other innocent people in Palestine.

Should I be against Israel itself?

Note I’m [US] American, so I’m against the incalculable harms we’ve perpetrated on the world and our own citizens over the past couple hundred years. I would hesitate - pending some replies to me here - to say “I don’t support the USA” given the very cool people and the Bernie Sanders types and the benevolent US aid organizations and the National Parks and so on (some fediverse developers)… but have an open mind and curious to hear your thoughts on semantics.

Sounds like it would require some significant resources to combat.

That said, that plan comes at a cost to presumably innocent users who will bark up the wrong trees.

Do you think it’s possible for old decommissioned drives to be donated in a compliant manner?

Reference for others:

ISO/IEC 27001 is an international standard to manage information security. … It details requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an information security management system (ISMS) – the aim of which is to help organizations make the information assets they hold more secure. Organizations that meet the standard's requirements can choose to be certified by an accredited certification body following successful completion of an audit.

David Charles Hahn (October 30, 1976 – September 27, 2016), sometimes called the "Radioactive Boy Scout" and the "Nuclear Boy Scout" was an American nuclear radiation enthusiast who built a homemade neutron source at the age of seventeen.

Sad read, poor guy.

Never thought I’d read someone:

attained Eagle Scout rank shortly after his lab was dismantled.

I recognize there’s a likelihood you are usually being paid for answers like that. Thank you for satisfying my curiosity for free :)

I maintain the latest version of my social security number below:


Heh yeah OP could add disclaimer to understand your threat model, consider your post history, consider the accounts connected to and used by the slice of internet you’re maintaining, etc. and if it’s too complicated to analyze just be safe and don’t share anything at all (or at least make a throwaway, while still realizing a determined party could try to tie it back to you).

I could be more worried, though, as anything someone really cares about will likely be innocently self-promoted (mentioned in passing) before long. Doesn’t mean it’ll all be in one place like in this thread, but we are mostly worried about determined malicious losers - I think.

For the kids:

The Sony BMG CD copy protection rootkit scandal was a scandal focused on the implementation of copy protection measures on about 22 million CDs distributed by Sony BMG in 2005. When inserted into a computer, the CDs installed one of two pieces of software that provided a form of digital rights management (DRM) by modifying the operating system to interfere with CD copying. Neither program could easily be uninstalled, and they created vulnerabilities that were exploited by unrelated malware. One of the programs would install and "phone home" with reports on the user's private listening habits, even if the user refused its end-user license agreement (EULA), while the other was not mentioned in the EULA at all. Both programs contained code from several pieces of copylefted free software in an apparent infringement of copyright, and configured the operating system to hide the software's existence, leading to both programs being classified as rootkits.

make it easier on their server side to authenticate purchases and then to use the same PSN account systems to matchmaker for easier cross-play.

Like fraud prevention?

Easier cross play?

Good detailed response :)

make politicians rapidly lose their jobs when they ignore public opinion.

Under such conditions, would the US have ended slavery or enacted the Civil Rights Act?

brbposting ,

Sony announcing the PSN requirement without detailing what unsupported country purchasers should do is at least nearly shady. Dumbasses
