The New York Times is suing OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringement
  • Really seemed like this was inevitable - it will be interesting to see if their fair use defense pans out.

    I don't expect it will, and I'm worried of the impact of that precedent on the legitimate fair use circuit...

  • 9to5Google: AAWireless Android Auto adapter returns to Amazon
  • Depending on your usage, wired (due to being slow charging, typically) can actually drain the battery faster than it charges.

    But since you're using it tirelessly, you can use a fast charger via your 9v outlet (or other fast charging USB).

    It sucks it uses so much power, but you're probably better off if you need to charge your phone anyway

  • The Steam Winter Sale 2023 is now live
  • Really been enjoying Against the Storm - though I play mostly under 1x speed so I spend so long per level lol - slowly adjusting to speeding up...

  • 9to5Google: AAWireless Android Auto adapter returns to Amazon
  • Protip: Many cars use slow charging USB 2.0 for wired Android Auto - if you use this, you cab instead plug your phone into a fast charging outlet instead

  • Recording Game Clips Could Be Coming to Steam Deck - Steam Deck HQ
  • Yes please!

    The whole buffer/quick record that's been added to video card drivers have been a boon for capturing those blimo and you'll miss it episodes of hilarity.

  • Pretty sure it actually predates Apple's version too...

  • QR codes can be phishing scams in disguise, warns the FTC - The Verge
  • This is exactly why restaurants shouldn't use QR codes as menus, they're attack vectors - anyone can just come in and slap on their own QR sticker.

  • Not yet - it has an API but any bridge hasn't been built. (To my knowledge)

  • Win a Steam Deck OLED or Lenovo Legion Go gaming handheld by watching The Game Awards
  • Tbf you weren't required to watch, just had to follow the link in the article to the gleam page.

    I'm sure the robots will enjoy their new OLED though.

  • Any simple alternatives to smoke ping?
  • I just use the ping integration of Home Assistant, simple for me since I've already got HA running.

  • Home Assistant 2023.12: Welcome home!
  • That functionality only works with Google Keep. Google killed off integration with third party apps early this year.

    I've just sworn off using it and using the app we were already using manually. Sort of hoping the year of voice will eventually produce a viable replacement because I'm sick of Google killing shit off and forcing you to use their app. "Be different, not the same" 🙄

  • Hopefully HIPPA will be enough to actually force some punishment to the company.

    Leaking half of the US populations' SSNs wasn't enough

  • I sort of wish God existed so they could tell this woman she's stupid af.

  • 18 months later, I'm still using the Galaxy S22 Ultra as my daily phone
  • Tbf, it's all about usage and charhing habits. My S22 lasts my work day, but at around ~30%, but I also only charge it to 85%.

    If I didn't charge it on the drive home, it'd probably die during the day.

  • 18 months later, I'm still using the Galaxy S22 Ultra as my daily phone
  • I'd imagine this article is more of statement against the S23 Ultra, than a humble brag. At this point, even if you are able to afford it, why upgrade yearly?

    Phones aren't getting drastic upgrades with each physical release - most exciting upgrades are typically software based.
