Even Nintendo has been setting fairly strict requirements to pre-order some of their products, like requiring 50 hours of playtime on the original switch to pre-order the Switch 2
Don’t get me wrong, if I had my way TikTok wouldn’t exist for anyone, adults included. It’s just so strange to me that so many parents hand their 7 year olds unrestricted access to TikTok and expect someone else to keep their kid safe.

This did catch my eye, however: https://github.com/creationix/rx?tab=readme-ov-file#proxy-be...
While this is a neat feature, this means it is not in fact a drop in replacement for JSON.parse, as you will be breaking any code that relies on the that result being a mutable object.
In 20 years we'll look at a lot of things that are normalized today like we look at cigarettes now, in disbelief at how unhealthy it was.
After just a few hours of watching YouTube tutorials and translating what I could grasp from C/C# into JavaScript (the only language I knew at the time), I had a working Node.js executable that edited memory offsets (using data from hazedumper[1]), letting me see enemies through walls and auto-fire as soon as they entered my crosshair.
I obviously only tried it out on an alt steam account for fear of the infamous VAC ban, but no such ban happened. I only toyed with it for a few weeks as I then grew disinterested but that definitely left a sour taste in my mouth for the "effectiveness" of VAC if a script kiddie like me at the time could throw together something custom in just a few hours, I'm sure it'd be much easier now with ChatGPT...
Playing through a browser seems like a downside for me personally
Unless your job involves critiquing the header image of people’s personal blogs I don’t think these are equivalent.
0.4% and 0.2% sound low, but make up for ~110,000 deaths. Spread across a 5 year period does indeed equal “tens of thousands” every year.
Nintendo has lost it's way in regards to sandboxing a child in a safe environment. I looked at the new console and all I could think about is "another button I have to teach the kids to avoid"
Call me old fashioned, but I have purchased Nintendo DS lites for each of them as that is the last handheld I could find that doesn't introduce a browser or storefront with internet connectivity.
It always comes off as click/rage bait to me when people report on these deaths when there are literally hundreds per day that don’t involve an autonomous vehicle.
Not sure if that’s what happened here but it wouldn’t surprise me.
> Typically, swipe fees cost merchants 2% of the total transaction a customer makes — but can be as much as 4% for some premium rewards cards, according to the National Retail Federation. The settlement would lower those fees by at least 0.04 percentage point for a minimum of three years.
It took a 20 year antitrust lawsuit to bring a 2% fee down to 1.96% for 3 years? Am I reading that wrong? Or maybe this is more about reducing the additional fees for premium rewards cards?
let stop = false;
let play = () => {
const button = document.querySelector('[data-word-button]');
if (stop || !button) return;
button.click();
setTimeout(play, 0);
}
play(); // to play
stop = true; // to stop
localStorage.clear(); location.reload(); // to restartNice
