Should be opt-in, it’s a dumb feature nobody asked for.

Not at all, it has to be flipped off before you can turn it back on.

Even the Index, Valve’s own headset has had broken functionality for years with no fixes in sight. Valve refuses to fix big stuff like the cameras, base stations not turning on, or even automatic audio switching.

Not to mention steamvr reprojection is completely broken.

Encryption extension on RCS is a non-standard addon to RCS which is not part of the standard. RCS on Android in general is also run through google servers and Jibe, and isn’t exactly an open standard to begin with.

Apple isn’t preventing cross platform encryption at all, every popular messenger (even Signal) is available in the App Store.

There’s a toggle to turn off iMessage, and the phone asks you when you set it up if you want to use iMessage or not.

SMS doesn’t support encryption, nor is Apple preventing you from downloading any number of encrypted chat apps that work cross platform.

If google didn’t release a new chat app every 6 months we might have a more widespread standard in the US already - and yes RCS is coming to the iPhone next year.

Nothing has really changed though, you could already delete comments to make the comment section look however you want.

Going to get downvoted for this, but it’s a private platform where free speech laws don’t apply.

Not to mention the channel owner already had the ability to delete any comment they wanted.

It’s as simple as this:

If my ISP charges me for X connection speed, I should be able to use what I paid for. Bandwidth caps make no sense, “internet” is not a resource that has to be generated.

What happened in the pandemic was the first real test displaying very clearly that ISPs are overselling/overprovisioning their network, and hoping we don’t notice that they haven’t actually used the money to upgrade or improve their network.

It’s easy to point the finger at the big bandwidth sources and ask for more money, but it’s wrong and it’s double-dipping. They’re using Twitch and Netflix as the scapegoat for their lack of reinvestment.

This is a bad take, and the antithesis of net neutrality.

If the customer pays for a connection, the ISP should be able to provide that. Why does it matter if it’s Twitch or Netflix traffic vs anything else?

Or just let us download the actual game/movie/song like the good old days.

You’re probably thinking about homerf, which was the competitor to WiFi. I don’t think Bluetooth was ever marketed as an alternative to WiFi.

android has allowed 3rd party app stores since day 1 so this is going to be an issue on the iPhone how?

So click the regular copy button instead?

This is not even a quote from the show….

If you already have a virtualization host can just use a VM as well.

Only thing to note is that the trackpad doesn’t give you a real mouse cursor, so it’s not all that useful for remote desktop.

Personally think it’s very overpriced, I’d get the cheaper keyboard folio.

In HAM radio, encryption is forbidden, which would be the most equivalent to police radio.

Just to note, the issue with Dolphin was that they had copyrighted decryption keys in their source code, which is why they were pulled from Steam.

What he really means is “we want our 30% cut”
