Because*

Year at the front makes all records perfectly sortable over time. It’s there for the long haul.

YYYY-MM-DD forever!

I suspect this is 80% execution biting them. (Though the cost is still dumb) If they’d left it truly modular and had not infected the main game with the intro quest then paywalled people. They’d be getting way less flack.

Just put it in orbit! Let’s commit and put a ring on this planet!

Game Pass, I have a friend who is a game hopper, not everything he picks is game pass but enough is, and while I don’t use it as much as I wish I did, the phone and PC cloud play is pretty cool and makes it extra easy to poke at titles I’m curious about fairly quickly and with minimal effort.

Streisand effect for sure, but I can also definitely understand her request. Yikes

Had a comp sci teacher do a decent job making an argument for the 3-in-1 as our limited three-dimensional interpretation of a multi-dimensional (4+) being. A multi-dimensional existence is going to interact with our three-dimensional world in ways that are impossible to interpret holistically since it extends into and is connected through dimensions that don’t exist for us. Like a tesseract, we have visual representations of tesseracts but they aren’t what a tesseract would actually look like if one appeared in front of you one day.

Weekly report that says XXXX attempted/failed attacks of X type, of y type, etc. and the ability to produce the 70m scroll and generally talk about the stuff on request.

That’s a common reporting problem, there have been no “successful” attacks, you show value/work by making sure to note all the unsuccessful ones.

I’m CIS white dude who is rapidly approaching 40, I really enjoyed it overall.

Yeah, Nic Cage, physically at least, would probably make a pretty good Joker. Not sure one the vocal front.

But that would be creationism? Pastafarian Creationism.

Interesting but I would argue that’s actually still a destructive copy process. “Old Man’s War” did a good job of what I’m talking about, it was body to clone body but the principal was similar and at the halfway point the person was experiencing existence in both bodies at once, seeing both bodies from the perspective of each other until the transfer completed and they were in the new body and the old slumped over.

That’s what I’ve always thought more or less, to have a chance you would need a method where mental processing starts to be shared in both, then transfers more and more to the inorganic platform till it’s 100% and the organic isn’t working anymore.

I 100% salute your mom but raw capability isn’t even really the point. Realistically, your average person, let alone older person has absolutely zero interest in needing to touch a terminal. They want to live as close to auto-magic as they possibly can. I hate Apple but the idea that it “just works” is one of their primary selling points, right along side the whole status symbol thing. It’s not a right or wrong, just people being people.

That might just be the default though, they had sms until this change, so TOTP may still be on the table.

That’s probably some kind of data policies that your company has put in place. Default teams chat history is forever.

Chat history is forever by default and has been for years so far as I know, anything else is a company policy. People don’t appreciate how much control their company has over the experience.

Oh you mean that other completely artificial limitation that Apple insists on having in their os?
