I am so glad you mentioned this. Here's a member of the FIDO Alliance going on a power trip about an open source client implementing an export feature before the spec is ready. "Reach out to me privately through my website" is top-notch gatekeeper behaviour. Since the universe has a sense of...

Passkeys are like hardware tokens technically, but economically they are an ongoing service with an unspecified termination date, more akin to cloud storage, email or password managers. People keep saying "look at these all technical benefits" while completely ignoring that you need an ongoing...

You say all this as if it is all positive, but everything you say is absolutely terrifying. Lack of transferability makes passkeys a completely unserious proposition. If I can't transfer them, then that means that I should keep keychain redundancy at all times. And I mean all times, even when...

When I was cross-shopping between IONIQ 5 and EV6* I also test drove an IONIQ 6 because that was the only car the dealer had with digital side mirrors. It's astonishing how wide IONIQ 6 looks in person, especially in the front. The hood looks really long too, it's one of those vehicles that in...

Your grand vision pinpoints exactly why the whole race to 'autonomous cars' is so depressing to me. It is astonishing to me that this autonomous vehicles are so interesting or popular with so many seemingly serious people. What is so seductive in AVs that makes people go "this truly will change...

What is so irritating is that anyone would quote Hinton as a person equipped to do any sort of public policy recommendations. He is at best a cynical player peddling AI hype or at worst an irresponsible idiot - in 2016 he recommended that we should stop training radiologist now because AI will...

Was there before a big product pulled from PS store for quality reasons? I am sure there were indie games that did not make the cut or were pulled after some update went sideways, but anything major?

I don't think it is given that CP2077 will get better. Anthem is still bad, if I were to trust the reports. Fallout 76 is a turd even with Wastelanders, I bought it for 20$ about a year after the release to check and yep, still a turd to this day. No Man's Sky is indeed good now. I personally...

I am still to pre-order any game, but I jus re-read this review and I feel completely out of touch with gaming journalism. What constitutes a game-breaking bug in the eyes of a game reviewer? "In one particularly egregious example, I ended up having an entire conversation with a seemingly dead...

Am I the only one getting reminded of Anthem release a few years back? We had enormous hype, huge delays, really buggy launch, complaints about shallow story and now, reports of refunds on consoles. I would really like to read a report deconstructing what went wrong with CP2077, just as I...

We also got confirmation from Apple that the new iMacs do not have the T2 chip that has appeared in the iMac Pro, Mac mini, MacBook Pro, and MacBook Air. Does that mean that Hackintoshes got another year to live? Not that it affects too many people, but that's really interesting.

I played through the demo on PS4, and ended up cancelling my pre-order. The whole concept of shared quests seems flawed. You get into a story mission with 3 random players. Because of a bug, you get stuck in between stones and get frustrated about not being able to do anything to be useful...

I guess I'll be getting one. i5 with 16 GB of RAM and 250 GB SSD for 1300 US$ seems like the sweet spot in the range, even if I'd probably shell out on 500 GB SSD. In 3 years, add more RAM if needed and continue running for another three. Buy an eGPU if you feel like "gaming". It feels a bit...

I call bullshit on Musk's "narrative". It's full of empty statements like "That said, my belief that there is more than enough funding to take Tesla private was reinforced during this process." More than enough founding where? In the whole wide world? Sure. At Tesla disposal on 7th of August? It...

This is what bothers me the most with latest Elon Musk stories. If any of that "founding secured" bullshit would be created by your typical automotive CEO, even one with a loud mouth like Carlos Ghosn, he'd be kicked out before he could write a explanatory blogpost and nobody would even blink...

Your view conveniently omits the part where gave a concrete price per share and then wrote "funding secured". If he just wanted to "do a thing", he would tweet: Considering taking Tesla private, will probably need to pay a 20% premium over the current price. Gotta talk to some prospects to...

Oh, that I get really well. When I used to work for an US-based company, I was stunned how many of my American colleagues were workaholics by our standard. They'd routinely brag to the note of "I slept at office" or "I only went home for a new change of clothes". I'd ashamed to do so, especially...

Whenever I read latest Elon Musk news, I think of the late Sergio Marchionne, who was the "controversial" automotive CEO back in the day. Imagine what would've been if instead of actually orchestrating the Fiat-Chrysler merger on the 1st of January 2014 he'd tweet: "considering buying Chrysler...

The American Energy Alliance issued a statement applauding the EPA's action, saying, "The proposed rule establishes and confirms true federalism by removing California’s ability to dictate to consumers in other states what kinds of cars they should buy. No state should have the ability to...

"As you might imagine, that has made the sport an attractive place for automakers and engineering companies to invest time and money. Jaguar was the first OEM to sign up in season three. This year, Audi went from a toe dipped in the water to playing for real, and next year BMW will do the same"...
