Both Ericsson and Nokia have been huge players in the cellular networking market for many years, and still are. Nothing new. The only thing new is that they are getting even more contracts in the west since governments started boycotting Chinese companies (for good reason).
Oh yes I have an Xbox as well and the GAME updates are annoying as hell but the system OS itself only gets one small update maybe once a month at most. I think the convenience of a console with one box, a power cable and a hdmi cable and with the click of one button to have it up-to-date and a fixed ca 7 year lifetime with one system compared to a pc that you have to build yourself, check compatibility, install the OS, install and update graphics and other drivers with a floating generation meaning having to buy new hardware to match new games - it’s just a different thing.
Some love the building and updating part of a pc though, that’s great for them.
Yeah, I agree. Good load times, a silent console and the controller are the positive sides, most of the rest is disappointing. Same goes for the Xbox Series X, except the controller is not really an upgrade and that platform has almost zero really good exclusives. Even Game Pass, which was an amazing value deal a few years ago, has turned into a shovelware desert.
I’m not so sure, there are already pure PS5/XSX games and they are not THAT impressive. Also as someone else commented, once they reach that time there will be a PS5 Pro. This entire generation is a disappointing mess.
Good for you, IMO (and as a PS5 owner) you’re not missing much.
Because we want to enjoy gaming in the couch and have no crappy hardware mess, driver and update hell. Just a box that works and can be played from cozy cushions while talking to friends next to us instead of sweat, back pain and eye strain at a desk.
If you like pc gaming that is great but it’s weird that you can’t see there are different types of gamers.
To me the PS5 feels like PS4.5 at most.
The box even says “8K capable” and they promised an amazing 4K-8K 120hz raytracing heaven before release. Every time I see the box or watch old presentation videos I feel scammed.
Because in reality almost all games have a pathetic “slow mode with higher res” (often 30 fps!) or “fast mode with previous generation graphics and resolution” (usually some variable upscaled mess and far from native 4K).
It’s still a decent machine (I like it being silent a lot, load times are also quite good) and I enjoy gaming regardless of performance BUT their promises were nothing but a marketing scam. It feels far from “next generation” to me.
(Same goes for Xbox Series X of course, it’s just as bad in this sense.)
Oh, OK, I’ve never noticed that, thanks. Sounds logical, there is probably much more societal stigma in the corporate office world.
I don’t get it, can someone explain?
The entire service didn’t feel very reliable from the start. And look what happened.
It’s a nice thought but if everyone were to manage their own email server (and other things) we would have SO much more security problems in general.
That’s oversimplifying it quite a lot. Many tech-educated users, developers, IT experts etc use MacOS/iOS. And many users of Android or other OSes have no idea what they are doing. All the large operating systems today are too wide to have a one demographic, they cover it all.
Thanks for the links. I wasn’t aware of those, it sounds like PlayStore level of crapware in those cases, although you have to be REALLY dumb to be fooled by such obvious ones. But if you’re a very technically challenged person I am sure it is possible.
But the case with the LastPass clone is definitely much more malicious.
I am surprised this happened, it’s the first case of anything like this that I have heard of. Do you know of any other cases?
Excellent to-the-point comment!
That is so nice of you, thank you for the offer! I’ll try to keep it in mind once its out. 😊 And yes indeed it’s a brilliant show.
AppleTV+ is still cheap where you live? Here in Europe it went from 4,99€ to 6,99€ and I think they just raised it to 9,99€. They have some great shows but VERY little content all in all. And at a doubled price which now matches all the other services (all around 10€ each) it is just not worth it IMO.
I might get it for one binge-month in the future just to watch Severance season two though. Or… just get it elsewhere…
Kind of worrying when their source is a “data breach information website” that does advertorials for “the most safe password manager” NordPass. 🤮 The internet of today has become a pile of absolute shit.
I haven’t read anything about cracking the data itself though, just being able to identify the phone number of a sender. The infos they give is just too vague at this point.
USA safer than Sweden and Denmark. 😂
