It’s hard to believe anyone would be legally convicted of a crime because their OS took a screenshot.

the developers chose the method purposely

They chose it because it’s often the only way they can distribute packages to Ubuntu users. Which was the whole point all along; Canonical taking control of app distribution.

There will always be edge cases and exploits.

Sure, but most people already have sensitive data on their PCs and trust the OS to keep it (mostly) safe.

To what end?

To the end that stonk line go up.

Oh so you are essentially personally maintaining the sources list?

Sounds like Obtainium on Android.

The thing that concerns me is that it downloads an unofficial source.

Oh. Cool.

Counts what?

OK but what does it do?

The difficulty is not a problem for me so much as the very slow movements. It takes like 2 seconds to swing a sword. Meanwhile the opponent is still attacking. Just can’t figure these games out, myself 😮‍💨

What’s a pager program?

Could you be more cryptic?

I didn’t realize that was a thing

Because they’re a minority. Statistically they are more overrepresented and overpaid than white people.

I just shove them into a grinder…

It’s the same story for every VR headset. Buy it, be blown away for a few hours/days, then never touch it again. I did it too, with Oculus Go. The only exception is for gaming, but Apple just doesn’t know anything about that. Honestly I’m blown away that they sold as many as they did, but that’s Apple marketing for ya, I guess.

It was insanely overpriced, and so obviously intentionally so. Sell a headset that gets plugged into a Macbook for computation and you’ll sell quite a few more. It’ll be lighter, cheaper, smaller, more comfortable, and easier to integrate into your workflow. But of course that would break Apple’s cardinal rule of making 2 products capable of the same tasks. Same reason why your MacBook will never have a touchscreen and your iPad will never drive 2 displays or run MacOS apps or why they stopped making the 12" Macbook.

“We’ll only permit you to do this terrible thing if you also agree to do this other terrible thing that you already want to do.”

I wasn’t referring to those, I was referring to dedicated accounting software.

€12/user is trivial for any business, much less an accounting business that I’m sure it’s lucrative.

I mean I’m sure it’s possible but surely there are better solutions…?

Written version

tl:Dr “Mr.Deepfake” is a Toronto family man and pharmacist named David Do. He’s since been let go from his job.

He was ID’d a dozen different ways but primarily by the actual contact address listed on the website, cross-referenced against other usernames, addresses and passwords found in breached data.

If he was trying to hide himself, he didn’t try very hard. Probably regretting that now

Accountants use Excel!?
