proof of income was enough

[lilac bear]

that's kinda.. that sucks

[harsh quartz]

Was not for me 😠

I’m salty

[lilac bear]

I know major stores tend to have their own credit card system but forcing the customers to use that is crazy

[summer folio]

Swish is the 2:nd choice after cards in Sweden. All our banks have that app.
Your bank account is connected to your phone number
You just put in your friends phone number & he instantly gets the money, even if different bank.
Both Swedens biggest grocery store ICA & my local pizzeria have numbers you can "Swish" money to at the cashier, from your phone app.

[long briar]

Costco takes Cash, Interac Debit and Mastercard Credit

[alpine gale]

We had the local Credit Union visit our elementary schools to force people into thier cults sign students up for no-cost savings accounts as early as Grade 3? or 4? To be fair, yes, the accounts were joint with your parents, but it was kinda neat to start saving and learn about money at a super young age. Debit cards indeed were made available around the end of Elementary school ish... Can't remember the required age though.

[granite tinsel]

ah yes, canadian costco

[long briar]

yessir

[full fossil]

Yeah but here they want you to use their own credit card

[restive lion]

does american costco not take regular mastercard??

[granite tinsel]

idk but canadian costco is exclusively partnered with mastercard which is the most ass thing imaginable

[full fossil]

If Costco here takes other cards I wouldn’t be bringing cash to Costco

[harsh quartz]

I have never seen a location in the US refuse to take a certain kind of card

[long briar]

I don't have my own costco card I leech off my older sister's who has their credit card

[full fossil]

Taiwan’s Costco is exclusively partnered with Fubon bank so you need to apply for their credit card to shop at Costco without cash.

[granite tinsel]

my bank doesn't even have mastercard

[restive lion]

my provider switched from visa to mastercard so now i dont care

it does suck though

[long briar]

it isn't

[ebon plover]

Here people usually choose to get a debit card instead of a credit card, not sure what it’s like everywhere else though

[long briar]

you must be young.

you need a debit to get a credit

[full fossil]

Cards fire though

[summer folio]

Yeah, same in Sweden. Most people use debit cards.

[restive lion]

or not in the americas

[full fossil]

Must be in South East Asia

[restive lion]

credit matters significantly less outside of americas

[long briar]

oh fair enough actually yea

[full fossil]

Nah it matters here lmao

[ebon plover]

The UK actually

[restive lion]

you have a visa debit presumably

[full fossil]

kinda fun read rn

Aint revolut popular over there

[ebon plover]

Probably, haven’t seen any out and about though

[lilac bear]

I like credit because I don't need to call the bank if I make a dummy thick purchase if I end up doing that

[long briar]

it's weird

[lilac bear]

but yeah the credit score

[full fossil]

Fym credit score also matters here the fuck

[ebon plover]

We use either Visa or Mastercard, they’re the 2 biggest debit cards here

[full fossil]

I can’t get mortgage if my credit score is shit

[restive lion]

i mean i pay for basically everything with my cc and just move money around to match in my bank account

[summer folio]

Apparently kids from year 13 can get Master Card Debit now in Sweden.
Damn. When I was a kid you could only get Maestro card, aka not pay online.

[full fossil]

Tbh these days everyone can get both Visa and Mastercard

Even Amex.

[ebon plover]

Same here, though there are special debit cards for children that have strong parental controls that I think are from the age of 6

[summer folio]

When I bought my first computer in middle school, I had to pay by cash on delivery.
Aka the computer store sent all parts to closest "post office"(grocery store COOP)
I payed my post office/grocery store COOP 1500$ in cash, & first after that they gave me my package from the computer store.

[long briar]

Legit I wanted to switch banks

so I opened a debit at the second bank

then immediately spent 2k

[full fossil]

My dad bought my first computer with cash since it was assembled using old hardware.

Probably the reason why I am in CompSci at the end lmao

[long briar]

the bank didn't care. They sent me an email telling me it happened and that's it

[lilac bear]

money is money

[full fossil]

I bought my iPhone with a debit and they just send me a SMS and nothing happened.

[long briar]

Oh I do remember, I had 40 bucks worth of coins.

[full fossil]

Now I swipe to buy alcohol

[long briar]

I bought a kit of ram and gave the poor cashier 40 bucks of coins

[full fossil]

Laptop

[lilac bear]

YOU

[summer folio]

Still. Lots of trust both ways haha. Lots of hassle for the computer hardware store to send a package, if nobody show up/scam order.
For the consumer, I wonder if you can get your money back, if you open it up at the post office/grocery store, since you have to hand over your money to get the package(just in case the package contains like, a block of cement instead of GeForce)

[lilac bear]

I didn't even think of that

the security risk

[long briar]

yea took a hot minute

[full fossil]

American capitalism.

Is this

[long briar]

Costco business model is really cool though

like it legitimately is really cool

Most chains have smaller stores and a central warehouse that distributes

[full fossil]

Costco is peak capitalism

[long briar]

Costco skips those smaller stores and just puts everything on display in the warehouse

[full fossil]

Which is great and the reason why I have Costco membership

[restive lion]

logistics nightmare tho lol

[long briar]

not really

[gilded quest]

American exceptionalism

[summer folio]

We recently got a costco store in Sweden.
I believe it lives on hype/maybe fad/trendy to get brands that usually not exist in Sweden ig(?)

[restive lion]

i assume they have a central shipping depot somewhere to make it less awful

[long briar]

well ofc they do

but like, within the city there's normally one maybe two costcos

[full fossil]

Costco lives on bulk purchases.

[gilded quest]

https://www.acquired.fm/episodes/costco
This is worth the listen

[restive lion]

costco lives on you going in with a grocery list and leaving with a kitchen sink

Oh transcript, I guess you can LLM summarize it and save 3 hours

[full fossil]

24 cans of Taiwanese (seasonal) beer and Thai snack

[long briar]

this is in contrast to about 10 superstores in my city

[gilded quest]

I've never seen Taiwanese beer in a Costco

[summer folio]

IKEA(furniture) & Biltema(car/mc/tool) stores have 50 cents hot dogs though in Sweden.

[full fossil]

MANDARINA LAGER

MANDARINA BAVARIA

[full fossil]

I had IKEA meatballs before. It was great

The jam and the mash potato gravy combo is pure perfection

[alpine gale]

The Business Wars podcast episode on Costco was pretty good too. They might not be perfect (and I still dislike current day capitalism) but Costco seems to be doing things better than a lot of retailers, both for their customers and employees.

[gilded quest]

Not even executive

[full fossil]

Don’t feel the need to.

[gilded quest]

Can we get a Costco executive member role?

[gilded quest]

It pays for itself. Literally.

That 2% is real

[full fossil]

Im still a student and I go to Costco like twice a month so I dont think I would be able to make a money back.

Besides I got mine from a 50% discount thing.

[summer folio]

I believe you mean the restuarant, never tried it, so I'll have to take your word for it!
I meant by the cashiers(?), after payment, they sell hot dogs/ice cream/pizza/soda for 50 cents, at the "exit"

[full fossil]

Ah here they don’t. If I want foodstuffs I need to go to the cafeteria

[elfin hemlock]

I had traditional made Köttbullar every time i visited Sweden... (small trip from very northern germany) and still love them.. but i really envy americans for stuff like Cajun Kitchen. Maybe next year when i will visit the first time the USA.

[full fossil]

Speaking of Germany

Still debating if I should eat the Bavarian pork knuckle thing

I mean I can eat it Im just not sure if I should or not, considering I am not celebrating anything

Or save the money for 10 course tasting menu

[elfin hemlock]

im from northern germany what is very different to bavaria... but i suppose you mean schweinshaxen ?

[full fossil]

Ja

There’s a Bavarian restaurant here that serves it

[elfin hemlock]

its very crunchy and tasty i had serval times.. its like little meaty pork crisps

[full fossil]

Yeah since they still have the skin

So its basically pork rinds.

I wanted to have that but at the same time I can also go out and have a 10 course fine dining.

So a bit conflicted.

[elfin hemlock]

i really want to eat Louisiana crayfish for once in my life 😄

[full fossil]

Who doesn’t?

Seafood boil and shit

[elfin hemlock]

Also whats special about the Danish style Hot Dogs they sell at ikea a the Røde pølser ( i grew up directly at the denmark border) a very overly sugar sweated sausage that why usually kids love them so much ... i never had a original new york - hot dog but i think its some kind of different experience.

Other than copy & paste, you also could had used the forward message option in Discord. C++ talk, gone forever.

I'm more of a leaving a trace kind of guy.
Used to have a random keylogger program on my PC, but it just saved it locally. Like a diary.

Also my screenshot folder on my phone have over 50 000 files & takes up ~70GB space apparently.

Computer science

M.Sc

[grim belfry]

Ah okay - Just because in some subjects very niche terminology is used and AI can get confused

I think CS should be good

[grim belfry]

Yeah, it's stuff like medicine where it goes bad lol

[cloud basin]

Problem is that 50% of my lectures are in German

[grim belfry]

Yeah

[cloud basin]

So the ai also needs to be able to make notes in German

[grim belfry]

Have you asked your university if they can offer a live captioning service?
For example, here in Australia there is LRC which can be provided to a student, where they have a remote stenographer listen in and caption for them

Hi, not sure if this is the right place to ask (if it's not, please redirect me)

He said it was hacked so I assumed they had full control and I dont see why else they would compromise it apart from attacking users using the service? I dont know anything about how and why wayback machine was hacked or affected just know in the right hands with full access they could do some bad things to the average user

[tired glade]

Maybe when he 25, he will get it why archiving important

[manic torrent]

... The most common compromise is information disclosure, second is ransomware. Full control is less common, so assuming that is silly.

Not to mention, as others did, you could simply look it up.

[cerulean lake]

Question, for a first time build, rate the cable management on the front?

[obsidian oracle]

idk what could be the alternative so ill give 7/10

[cerulean lake]

Still have to move some in front of the fans on the right, but doing my best :D

[manic torrent]

0/10 no CPU cooler : D

[obsidian oracle]

its an aio

Good ol Luke

[obsidian oracle]

ah yes

[sweet forum]

Where is the cpu cooler for that build took no cable literally

[manic torrent]

Seriously though the stupid 12 pin adaptor is terrible but that's nvidias fault because the whole thing is bad.

[full fossil]

Technically, it is being air cooled..

[cerulean lake]

Literally, the guy helping me was watching the pin adaptor and was like "Wtf, this looks like shit, but, oh well..."

[summer folio]

Horrible, tell Nvidia to make a longer pcb so the PCI-E slot is on a more reasonable place (at the back of the Graphic card, not the effing side ffs)

[obsidian oracle]

with water transfering the heat, true!

[summer folio]

Btw, what is that case? Am I blind or is there no intake fans in the front? @cerulean lake

🚢

AAA

[cerulean lake]

Oof

[cerulean lake]

Is this one

Those 2 together intake, the one alone goes out

And the radiator on top and out

[full fossil]

What? that's the bare top of a cpu my guy

[sweet forum]

Yeah direct air contact cooling

[obsidian oracle]

ah u meant that

[obsidian oracle]

cut that intake panel and fit 3 fans...

[cerulean lake]

Also, the missing CPU AIO

[obsidian oracle]

it arrived?

[cerulean lake]

Ye, i have it, but 11pm

So tomorrow i finish the build

[obsidian oracle]

screw time, just put it together and launch that baby

Already spent about 2.1k on everything

[obsidian oracle]

Actually, found the cooler at 70€

New, it was a steal, so i nabbed it

[cerulean lake]

I think it does? Lemme check

[obsidian oracle]

yea it does

tho yours dont have the X on name

[cerulean lake]

Yeah, it does, no?

[obsidian oracle]

i dont see it

[obsidian oracle]

wheres that written

[cerulean lake]

On the amazon page

[obsidian oracle]

huh, its not on the title

[obsidian oracle]

wtf mine doesnt have it

[obsidian oracle]

i think i have the wrong specification

yea now it does

[cerulean lake]

Maybe it's giving you this one

[obsidian oracle]

nah even worse, 165

[cerulean lake]

Ouch

[obsidian oracle]

its a nice monitor for the price tbh

[cerulean lake]

Yeah. I'll upgrade later, but happy with this

[obsidian oracle]

you dont even have to upgrade

[cerulean lake]

Then perfect

The only thing i should upgrade, tho, it's my work desk XD

[obsidian oracle]

lol

[sweet forum]

I use my 165 at 120 due to some weird bugs at 165

[obsidian oracle]

🥺

[sweet forum]

And I cant tell a difference ngl

[obsidian oracle]

why not set a custom res and make it 160

[cerulean lake]

Oh yeah, question. Do i have to enable something on the bios for anything, like, XMP, i think it's called?

Or i can just boot it up without tinkering with anything and still be cool?

[obsidian oracle]

sure, but you can enable those things to squeeze more powah

check your motherboard review and see what it has

[cerulean lake]

https://amzn.eu/d/3nL6g8i I bought this one

[sweet forum]

Maybe 160 wont bug out yeah I could see

[obsidian oracle]

its always worth to spend extra 20m if not 10 to enable those

[obsidian oracle]

cool white mobo

shoulda bought an am5 tho 😏

[cerulean lake]

Like this?

[obsidian oracle]

yeah

that works as well

[sweet forum]

Its a first gen 165hz monitor like one of the first 1440p 165s so its been like that since i got it and 120 has no bugs and its only when I like split screen different apps and they overlap or go off screen sometimes the upper half of the screen will flicker or something idk its weird

[obsidian oracle]

lol

[cerulean lake]

Heh, you fool... this intel one comes with...STICKERS!

[sweet forum]

I run my 6000 mhz ram at 6400 and works fine altho it had weird booting issues nit realivent to the cpu or ram

Like even at 4800 and stock it has same exact issues

First time I boot into certain bios settings it goes red cpu and ram for like a minute then dram for like 2 minutes then only dram for like 3 minutes every boot after that

But once it boots its 100% stable its so weird

[obsidian oracle]

oh nooo, +10hp

now it beats an am5 mobo 🥺

[sweet forum]

I blame the mobo i got a shitty mobo altho apart from the boot time thing i love it

Got a shitty one cuz the shipping time lol

[obsidian oracle]

i wasnt saying to u

or go even a step further and wait for the 9950x3d :P

[full fossil]

Maybe, when hard numbers come out

[ocean cloak]

i actually thought about upgrading from a 5800X to 9800X or sth but then i've seen how disappointing the 9th gen was lol

ngl but the 5800X still keeps up well these days in most scenarios

the non 3d variant

[full fossil]

“Don’t buy something on the promise of the future” paraphrased quote of MKBHD is something I go by in the tech world lol

[ocean cloak]

also as long as youre still fully satisfied with your current setup and performance theres also pretty much no need to upgrade

just for the sake of a larger and cooler sounding number its not worth it

[full fossil]

I’m running old hardware, 3700x and 5700xt def time for an upgrade lol

[ocean cloak]

ye okay thats fair lol

[fossil frost]

why is it worth the upgrade? what are you trying to do that your current hardware cant do?

[ocean cloak]

currently rocking a 5800X + RTX 4070 TiS combo

[dusky forum]

isnt 9800 very hot

[ocean cloak]

(upgraded the gpu from a 3070 to 4070 TiS some time ago lol)

[full fossil]

Tbh I’m looking at the 7800x3d more than the other. 7950x3d is mostly for the meme

[ocean cloak]

7800X3D is probably the best bang for the buck if youre looking for a gaming cpu

[dusky forum]

7800x3d gud, but for productive things, its mid

7950x3d is like balance between gaming and productive

[ocean cloak]

x3d is mainly for gaming. if you want producitvity better go for 7900x or sth

the non 3D models are still great gaming cpus

even ryzen 5000 cpus still do well these days and theyre a cheap upgrade if you already have an AM4 board

[full fossil]

I just want newer hardware

[ocean cloak]

but going from a 3700x to 5800x/5900x isnt probably worth it either

[fossil frost]

thats fine, its your money, you can spend it on what you want... i just want people to get out of the "I NEED TO UPGRADE BECAUSE IM ON LAST GEN AND IT SUCKS!"... no, you dont NEED to upgrade.. you WANT to upgrade.. and thats fine, just be honest with yourself

[patent violet]

My PC just smoked itself

[full fossil]

Bro what? I’m on the 3000 series Ryzen and 5000 series Radeon it’s been time for an upgrade lmao

[ocean cloak]

That's what I meant with even ryzen 5000 still works fine. It's last-last gen now and they still do great enough unless you really need 500 FPS lol

For 1440p/4k they are great value gaming CPUs and make a cheap upgrade for people who still have an am4 board and don't want to buy new RAM and a board

[dusky forum]

were there flames

[fossil frost]

my son is on an intel i7 7700k and a 6600xt... his gpu is now, but cpu is certainly not... does not need to upgrade at all, because it does everything he needs it to do, and plays all the games he likes to play... you dont NEED to upgrade, you WANT to upgrade

[patent violet]

A few PCB traces lit up

I know what it was too. I spilled liquid on the board one day and couldn't get it completely up. Corrosion. It definitely cooked my GPU too. Whatever, it's time for replacement

[full fossil]

Whatever dude, I’m on old mid tier hardware and after running it for 5+ years I personally think it’s time for me to upgrade.

[harsh quartz]

I need to switch out a 5800x for a 5800x3d

I think I got console banned from xbox 30+ times for jtagging

Ah jtagging, so many Kentucky fried xboxes

I was really into that like it got me in trouble for a while

i stopped writing cheats tho bc it's not fair to online ppl

A friend of mine was really into it, I didn't care that much I just wanted to hop on mw2 or halo 3 and game the night away

Loading linux onto it was interesting

[half pewter]

I was the one who didn't wear the wii remote wrist strap

[full fossil]

is ur tv ok

[half pewter]

Yes

[full fossil]

"hold on, I got banned again bro. I gotta redo the jtag! trust me its worth it bro, give me your xbox and you'll love it"

I remade the nxe dash in css and js recently tried to do the blades dash but couldn't the side scroll was irritating

I used to be a console only guy and only really cared about everything else you can do with a computer. Like datacenters and all that, but then someone just had to make me play cursed halo on their system and that marked the end of my console days haha

halo ce 2 and 3 were so good tho

halo combat evolved servers are still online

No doubt, but after that experience, the ps4 was my last true console

I have a switch, but I consider that more of a handheld than a traditional console

I remember breaking a ds lite in half at one point. I still have it
And it still works.

Just turned into a really sick gameboy advance at that point

Firstly, stop sinning

i used to ask ppl what pc this was

But the important question, can it run Crisis

[half pewter]

I think the only apple products I've ever owned are an iPhone 5c and my iPod nano

[full fossil]

I've had quite a few. Miss my iPod Touch with the guitar hero game

[half pewter]

I honestly go with Samsung now because of the issues I had when I broke my 5c.had warranty and they refused to repair it

[full fossil]

Samsung and Motorola are the only ones that make decent Androids imo

[half pewter]

I myself have an a03

[velvet marsh]

OnePlus

[full fossil]

[half pewter]

Before this I had an lg premier pro plus. Still have it and use it for the camera quality

[full fossil]

I feel bad for anyone that got scammed into buying an LG phone

[half pewter]

Got mine for free

[velvet marsh]

I had an LG at one point, it was one of the first candybar phones

[full fossil]

Silver Linings lol

[half pewter]

Man the only really good things about em was the camera quality and resolution of the screen

[full fossil]

My whole family had LG phones at one point, even though I told them not to and stick with Samsung. Every other day I had to fix issues on them pos which just turned into pure distain for them lmao

[velvet marsh]

Samsung phones were pretty bad til like the S8

[full fossil]

They will never have anything on LG Phones

[half pewter]

Never had a problem with the one I had

[velvet marsh]

I mean the s4 had a good screen but it was slow and the os was god awful

samsung before OneUI was a disaster

[strange elk]

Nah those weren't a thing back then

[full fossil]

Thankfully they wised up from the experience and two are on iPhone while the other is on a s24+ 🙏

[lilac bear]

LG stopped making phones

they had no choice to stay with LG

[full fossil]

I wouldn't have let them anyways. Was not about to field more issues on a daily basis lol

[lilac bear]

they haven't existed for years

[half pewter]

Was an LG 455DL I weirdly had no problems with it

[full fossil]

I think after the 5th battery failure they gave in and I set one up on an iPhone 11, iPhone SE and a a53. Now they know what decent working phones are

[lilac bear]

oh the LG V60 updated to Android 13

A53

trade mid for mid

[full fossil]

It actually worked compared to the LG and was made by a company that was competent in phone making

[lilac bear]

I guess if you didn't need to be the family's bitch tech support anymore

Is there a way to see if an achivement needs DLC ot be unlocked?? on steam?
it's very hard to see if you need dlc to get the achivement

I'm tired on having to search everything up on google if it's and dlc achivement or not

[full fossil]

If the LGs weren't a daily thing I would not have cared. But I couldn't deal with having to reset the entire phone, reinstall apps, flash android to them. Legit nothing worked on those phones

[half pewter]

Danm

Yea I guess I may have strange luck when it comes to phones then

[full fossil]

I think doing all that is what broke my fanboyism of Android and made me reconsider the fruit company

[half pewter]

I like apple. But hate when I need to drop over 800 for a decent phone

[full fossil]

I love what I have from them, I can pick it up and it just works. Don't have to worry about doing anything extra like I did with Android

[half pewter]

I honestly do think both of us have experienced something that put us off of an os / brand

[full fossil]

I mean I still like Android, I just needed something reliable and at that point in time, Android wasn't it and I had no other option. What else was I gonna go to? Windows Phone? lmao

[half pewter]

Man. Windows phones deserve their own place in hell

[full fossil]

I have an uncle that still rocks one and I ask him everytime, why do you torture yourself like this

[half pewter]

I can't say what I am thinking

[full fossil]

I've tried to get him to go at least Android, but he won't listen lol

[half pewter]

Yea. He a lost cause

[full fossil]

Last time I saw it, it was on its last leg so maybe he finally switched over, but this was 2018 so idk

[half pewter]

My mom was on an s7. Until I bought her an a03

[full fossil]

Mine is rocking an s24+ and I'm pretty sure it'll have to get a spicy pillow for her to drop it

[velvet marsh]

I think the a03 is a downgrade from the s7 lol

[half pewter]

That was the first and only time I had to break out the lithium fire bucket

[full fossil]

Haven't had to deal with one, yet

[half pewter]

She dropped that phone so many danm times tho. It lasted her a long time to

[full fossil]

Yep, I always push otterbox for her phones. She could make it a curved phone with how often she drops hers

[half pewter]

My mom dropped it getting in her truck often (short lady lifted dodge Ram) it dropped wrong that day and a rock went through the back

One way to find out

[plush crag]

so i recently built a pc with an intel wi fi card. since the first day all the way up to what is now my 4th day having this pc, my pc keeps disconnecting me from my wi fi.

it isn’t just a simple disconnect, it completely removes the option for wireless wi fi. it only shows back up again when i network reset and it has done this every single day.

my friend who helped me build this pc who is also very knowledgeable can’t seem to figure out what the problem is either.

my wi fi runs completely fine but it just randomly kicks me out of wi fi. the first time it happened was when i first played warzone, second was when i was downloading a game, third was when i was js on discord. they’re completely random and i don’t know the problem. i installed the wi fi card correctly and everything is up to date (windows and the drivers)

PLS HELP

while typing this my pc did it again and i network reset twice and i don’t even have the wi fi option anymore. it’s just completely gone now.

Idk where to ask this but I’m thinking about getting a analogue pocket and is there any good types of cases for it or will it work with the ones I have for my gameboys

[lilac bear]

it really is LMAO

I get Samsung is good

but praising the A series? really?

[mossy compass]

I'll praise Moto G series

Did my tech support forum get deleted?

[half pewter]

The specs on the s7 are better. Like 100% and if I could've found a refurbished one that wasn't $500 usd at the time I probably woulve gotten her another.

But unfortunately at the time I was still working at McDonalds and couldn't afford it so I got what I could afford

[iron saddle]

Hey everyone, I’ve recently unsoldered my phone’s storage chip because the phone wouldn’t power on or off, even after trying donor parts and various repair techniques. I’m wondering if it’s possible to simply solder this storage chip onto a random matching board (with the same model or similar specs) and then retrieve the data from it. Would this work, or are there specific considerations I need to keep in mind, like compatibility with the motherboard, firmware, or any encryption on the storage?

Also, I’d appreciate insights on the following:

1. Is there a risk of damaging the storage chip or losing data during the resoldering process?

2. Does the new board need to be identical to the original, or can it just be a compatible model?

3. How can I check if the storage chip has been damaged during the removal process before attempting resoldering?

4. If the storage is encrypted, what steps should I take to access the data after it’s been transferred to the new board?

5. Are there alternative ways to retrieve data from the storage chip without soldering it back onto a board?

[gentle gorge]

I have a question

?

[half pewter]

??

[covert cradle]

1. yes
2. flash in the same package tends to be compatible, but not always
3. not practical without specialized equipment like the pc-3000 spider board
4. it depends on the phone, but I don't think the encryption keys are backed up like bitlocker so you just can't
5. see 3

[pliant leaf]

I an'y believe LTT actually put that schizophrenic star citizen article in as an actual source

A medieval game? Complete insanity

[covert cradle]

what?

[iron saddle]

It's for a Vivo y27 pro 5 g

[pliant leaf]

In the latest techlinked they inserted a section about how star citizen is out of money, they've been pushing out squadron 42 to "get more money" which is nonsensical because you can't even preorder it, and that they're developing a medieval fantasy game. All those 3 things are complete insanity

[covert cradle]

That's from 2023, so it likely uses keys stored in the TEE; a secure element in the original phone's SoC. The new phone won't have the keys and afaik they don't get backed up

[smoky badge]

Ah great someone has a Venmo on my number

[lilac bear]

you WHAT

[smoky badge]

What

[iron saddle]

I can't post the specs of the nand, it gets automatically deleted

[covert cradle]

the specs of the nand aren't really relevent anyways. Android encrypts the storage using keys stored in the TEE of the SoC (or other secure element if the phone uses a dedicated one). These keys, akaik, do not get backed up anywhere. Without them you'll never decrypt it

[lilac bear]

it's not unnatural for a game company to suddenly split focus onto two games because "higher ups got a new idea that can't be implemented into the current game"

[iron saddle]

Cssually avarge EA reference

[pliant leaf]

No. It makes no sense. chris roberts has never touched fantasy in his life.

The devs would be against it and the backers would be even more against it

[lilac bear]

yeah I definitely agree with Star Citizen doing a 180 after a decade and many engine reworks to just do a different game on a medieval fantasy setting while the funding is low is crazy

[pure kelp]

yeah so ctrl + alt + del menu shows this how ducked am i

[lilac bear]

hopefully it is just schizo posting

can't wait to hear how it's their real passion project like starfield was to Bethesda (some of the worst DLC I have seen in a AAA title)

[pliant leaf]

There's a lot of interest in watching star citizen fail for some reason

[covert cradle]

The subtitle of the article in question is "We can’t even joke about the game at this point."
I think it's supposed to be a joke article

[lilac bear]

so LTT accidentally parroted parody

[pliant leaf]

Sure hope it is, but that raises even more questions about how it was included in techlinked

Gamelinked whatever

[iron saddle]

Cant be worse than The Sims 4 DLC

[lilac bear]

I'd say it's comparable

$30 for like two hours of "fun"

[covert cradle]

Holy crap, the author posts 9 articles a day

might not be parody but just ai
