- Comment on Why are they asking about the serial number? 3 weeks ago:
An example: If Im ever going to sell my Nintendo Switch (1), I’m absolutely going to include the model number. The reason: It’s a launch day Switch. While this means that it is the oldest model and also the battery might have more wear than a newer model, it also suffers from an unpatchable hardware bug that allows you to hack the system (and run homebrew, pirated games, modded games,…).
- Comment on When your partner asks where you learned that 3 weeks ago:
Slowly? That was already a trend like 10 years ago. And since the number of xkcd strips only increased since then, it will happen more and more frequently.

I mean, while probably not everything of that was planned, those missions, interviews and streams also serve as PR. So it doesn’t surprise me when there are things like this happening AND “allowed” to occur.
Also it’s quite a different team building and “work athmosphere” needed here, if you do not only see your colleagues a few hours per day, but spend quite a while together.

Don’t know why they’re called like that - the Accu definitely doesn’t stand for accurate (where I live).

- Comment on Amazon upsets ebook lovers by ending support for old Kindle devices 4 weeks ago:
With an old Kindle, it was trivially easy to rip Kindle books to retail-quality epubs.
Heh, yes. The encryption key for their old DRM was derivated from the Kindle’s serial number. Wanted to crack your library? Go to the webpage, download them all there (yes, that’s now blocked, too) open them all in calibre and use a plugin to deactivate the DRM (trivially to find back then). Enter your serial number and you’ve freed your whole library.

On the plus side, you might also end up maintaining their own Linux distribution Linux4ICE (or the newer one called EULE) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

- Comment on Stop bogarting that good stuff 2 months ago:
Fun fact: Did you know that the dose of 400mg is the ceiling if your goal is to lower pain and higher doses only affect other effects (e.g. being anti-inflammatory) of ibuprofen (and it’s unwanted side effects, too)?

Imagine if Microsoft blocked games being released onto XBox if they don’t have a certain amount of AI generated assets and/or “live generated content”.
Shhhh! Don’t tell them this idea, please!
