I mean it's absolutely true that you could choose never to give Tiktok permission to integrate with other apps, choose not to give it access to your contacts, never use your Tiktok ID for SSO with other apps, never install it in a country where it still collects location data, just never install...

Prompting for 3rd party app integration for recording contact lists, and then pointing at the opt out options as a defence, doesn't really allay concerns, let alone their more recent updates to comply with legislation regarding their previous geolocation features only happening in the countries...

Tellingly, after that report they removed some of the geolocation features in accordance with local laws. This was Tik Tok's response to that report though, and basically they blame the user for giving them access to 3rd party app contact lists. You're right though that tracking pixel use etc...

Yeah, a lot of their data collection is "opt out".

Meta's focusing on the standalone platform and Meta store. They can't compete with Steam on PCVR, as we saw with the Rift store. Hence using Asgard's Wrath II to show the potential of standalone with sufficient developer effort/money. That's also the reason for emphasis on MR. As it is, taking...

Definitely a stupid thing to say given the role of the Papua New Guineans in WWII. They weren't eating allied servicemen. Not that tourist tours don't play up the historical cannibalism, but that wasn't coastal tribes. More stories of cannibalism in PNG by the Japanese.

It is a shame that Meta isn't funding PCVR game development anymore. Stormland and the original Asgard's Wrath set a quality standard few PCVR titles reach. Mixed reality is just a bonus at this stage of development, and I mostly use it to check my surroundings or deal with something quickly...

Yeah, I wasn't blaming you. Just disappointed in the predictable nature of WR discussion.

If you have to try this hard to make a crime political, it's probably not really WR material.

I don't think it's an either or situation. Diminished responsibility due to his age doesn't mean he's not a dud unit for murdering someone at 7 and threatening to murder someone else at 10 on that basis. His access to firearms and ammunition, and the fact this occurred at the age of 7, is...

They seem to target the flight and racing sim market pretty hard with their designs, which is a niche within a niche, but I think the main thing holding them back is the unfinished state of most of their products at launch. Hopefully they can turn the corner on that with this release, as well...

I played a lot of PS2, only really stopped when the local server (Briggs - Oz) emptied, was shut down and my account appeared to get reset in the process. I loved the scale, but it required a lot of players and a decent ping to work well. Kinda the opposite of this thread title, but I've just...

He should have stuck with the girl from his hometown. She said she didn't even realise he had mental health issues. Sounds like it was downhill after he moved to Brisbane and ended up on the streets.

Eh, you're talking at crossed points. If you come into this thread and post about how it's not bigotry to make assumptions based on history and current political circumstances, you understand how in the context of posting here that comes across as apologism for posts made in this thread? Rather...

8 posts in I said that police had unofficially identified the attacker and didn't think it was ideological, and the information was over an hour old at that stage. Almost all the assertions made in this thread about it being islamic terrorism were made after my post, and certainly after the...

It's honestly hard to tell the difference between trolls and dribbling cretins. Some crossover obviously.

That's hard to believe, and if it's true surely there's plenty that would take up his case and those of others if they are in the same situation? Of course the Afghans using the equipment left behind and lost at war doesn't surprise me. There was no shortage of images of them still using British...

Silver lining. Bollard man was French and applying for permanent residency, which was approved as a result of his actions. Guess it made for a hell of a character reference.
