FYI - I’ve only downvoted you becuase OP already mentioned Rimworld and said he enjoys it.

It’s still in Early Access, but it’s getting lots of updates.

You could try Manor Lords (medieval village builder), or Songs of Syx (low-fantasy city builder that kind of converts into Total War (you can train your citizens in combat and then field massive armies to fight other cities)).

I recently had a great time with StarRupture (kind of like Space Engineers but with a very interesting world mechanic).

Also, less of a “watch the world evolve” and more like “I used to enjoy MMOs but hated the grind” - Crimson Desert offers a massive world where you can just relax and ride your horse, or farm, or fish. Or mow down dozens of enemies. You kind of have a growing camp, but it’s not “I’m building my camp”, it’s “I’m doing quests and eventually my camp grows a level”. It’s basically “what if Skyrim but larger and with phenomenal graphics”.

Any time anyone complains about a game and mentions anything at all related to “woke” as one of the reasons for the game being bad, you can immediately dismiss the entire opinion.

Aren’t they a little bit more directional towards the receivers these days? But then again, the stuff probably bounces around a lot anyway.

Too late for that. Early antennas threw radio waves all over the place.

If you actually read his github you would know that there is a different version of the responsible component between the recovery environment and an installation. Only the RE has the issue.

I know. It was mentioned in the article. It’s precisely why I said:

Another possibility is that they have two separate builds fro BitLocker, and the one used in WinRE is vulnerable which they missed.

Microsoft is the developer of the vulnerable bitlocker package and the ones who chose to ship it.

… one guy claims.

We don’t have enough information to clearly state that they did this on purpose.

We can know for FOSS software. You are treating uknownable as being less than the known bugs in Foss software. That’s dishonest, lad.

Again, read up about the XZ Utils vulnerability. We technically can know, but we don’t know, which was a statement by the guy responsible for package. It’s not dishonest, it’s a statement of fact.

Reposting here for visibility:

I have their Ultimate 2 gamepad and I’ll give them this - it’s probably one of the most comfortable gamepads I’ve ever used. It’s great.

That being said:

1. I actually bought two of them (Xbox and Switch layouts) and thank goodness I did, because one charger just broke, the USB-C cable wobbles inside like the socket itself got damaged. I know for a fact that the device didn’t fall down or anything like that.
2. Every now and again the joysticks freeze and I start spinning uncontrollably, and then just stop working. Sometimes switching from Bluetooth to radio for a while and then back again help. Sometimes I have to turn the device fully off.
3. More often than (2) the sticks will suddenly develop a lag. I turn the stick to one side, nothing happens. I release the stick. Then the character in the game starts moving for a while. It’s, like, 500-1000ms lag easily.

If you’re playing anything remotely competitive or punishing, I would not recommend 8bitDo products. If you’re only playing casual games with quick and easy save options, and you’re OK having to restart your gamepad every now and again, go for it.

You’ll see a lot of people suggesting 8bitDo.

I wish you all the luck in regaining a bit of happiness in life, so that you can stop with this insane “us vs them” bullshit. It’s unhealthy, mate.

Microsoft shipping a vulnerable version of the recovery environment. It is the ‘exploit’.

Red Hat and Canonical shipped a vulnerable version of SSH, the thing was caught basically hours before hitting all devices around the world.

Should Red Hat and Canonical be now considered hostile as much as MS is?

You select people who will remain complicit till they have a grievance against you. Even if they don’t and talked for moral reasons do you think they would not been fired for it?

I can only answer by saying this: I wish you luck in the job market and hope you’ll eventually find an employer you don’t assume to be a hostile entity towards you.

Who knows. How many more went through at closed source software a limited amount of people can test in the same way?

This is the equivalent of “prove that God doesn’t exist”. We can’t know because they haven’t been found, mate.

Yeah, that’s kind of the exact opposite of the point I was making, but you do you.

At least one of them only needs a remote session and access to any account on the device.

Of course there are! The only truly secure computer system is one that’s not powered up, after all.

You don’t understand! Someone doing that on some other social media platform is bad and insane! Him doing that on this social media platform is good and based! Jesus Christ, it’s a simple concept!

Don’t worry about it. You can’t see it anymore so it’s surely fine!

You’re saying they’re going “the wrong way”, but from the standpoint of a publicly traded company it’s literally the best way possible.

You promise to give $1million to Nvidia, Nvidia promises to give $1million to you - wam, bam, suddenly your stock market valuation’s up, people are throwing their money at you, and you didn’t even have to call your bank to make any transfers.

They’re literally printing money out of thin air.

That it will all crash and burn at some point? Who cares? If everyone goes down, you can blame the market. If you’re not in on the bandwagon while everyone else is printing money, you get sacked by the board of directors.

That’s all there is to it.

The statement is stupid because it is already well known across the board that Microsoft is, by all intents and purposes, a malware developer

Hahahahahaha, and you call my comments “stupid”? XD

OK, I’m not even reading the rest, mate. I get it! I really do - “Microsoft bad!”, that’s all there is to it for you. There’s no discussion to be had here, unless someone is also a member of the cult, and then everyone can chant “Microsoft bad! Microsoft bad!”.

Weak sauce, mate. Cheers!
