I'd be interested to learn more about how they do it. Based on this blurb on their website, the details are scarce. It's also not clear to me how they can verify passports locally. It's pretty strange that you need to do manual review, what data did they ask you to submit for this?
The way Google's AI mode is so quick to start citing crazy subreddits like r/KotakuInAction is scary. It causes it to quite literally promote various conspiracy theories, including that video games are "woke" because of ESG scores. Crazy stuff. Hey @opensource.google, you should fix this.
Exciting to see @anneliesemidgleymp.bsky.social heading to No 10. Really cool outfit too.
The statement from @mullvad.bsky.social on this seems to be the following. I wonder what the other co-CEO/co-founder is funding.
What’s crazy is that this is cheaper than GTA: Vice City when adjusted for inflation. No wonder the gaming industry is on its knees.
Finally had a chance to go see @garbage.com live. Amazing show and props to Shirley for taking care of the audience!
Interesting how fast @wsocial.eu has grown. I'm really curious how its human verification works. Nice to see that I'm not the only one crazy enough to attempt a social network for "verified humans".
If you haven't watched Widow's Bay yet, do give it a try. Such a great horror comedy that's somewhat reminiscent of Twin Peaks. It's on Apple TV.
Looks like Hugh Laurie finally got sick of hearing that "criticism" about House.
So with Spotify down I figured I’d give YouTube Music a try to listen to some podcasts. Has nobody considered it for that use case? Because ads that are 5 minutes long and which I cannot skip through car play is insane.
Of course, immediately after I set it up a neighbour's cat decided to come for a visit.
I have just found a reason to get into Nintendo DS game hacking/modding. This new Disney Magic Connection prototype was just shared. hiddenpalace.org/Disney_Magic...
If you stacked up the 7 million books Anthropic pirated, the pile would be 165x taller than the Burj Khalifa. Scale diagram:
TIL about "plug in solar" How are we only making them available now? This is such a ridiculously obvious way to help people with their energy bills. www.gov.uk/government/n...
Pretty annoyed by the state of this. It's 2026 and there is no API to get the road closures in the UK. The next best thing seems to be to look up the events for each stadium/venue/etc and deduce that roads will be closed nearby? sigh
Oh every day. Would be nice if they weren't charging me more than £1 per day for this...
This arrived at 4am. Nice that there was a follow up. But… is this just another automated email? They never removed the feature btw. DMs seemed unaffected throughout this. I guess I’ll try to send an email to them and see if I ever get a response.
Weirdly it seems Fabrik's site has casino SEO spam links on it? Has their site been hacked?
This obsession with live-service games has really destroyed this console generation.
Nope. No unusual spikes either. This email was sent to me at 4pm today.
As far as I can see @listifications.app's DMs are still active. So did this take effect or no? Will it? I'd also like to know more details about what triggered this. FWIW every DM is only sent if the user opts into the service. This is explained when they follow the account via DM.
