    Is the new Twitter just like the old?

    Life, James Hein, Published on 01/02/2023

    » The Twitter situation is complex and somewhat confusing. On the one hand, all kinds of people from The Babylon Bee satirical website to former US president Donald Trump have been allowed back on the platform. The stated aim is to allow freedom of speech to be supported by Twitter once again. On the other hand, you can be banned by linking to a public photo of a public person on a public platform. The rule for the latter appears to only be for friends of Elon Musk. A YouTube channel I enjoy watching, The Quartering, did this after someone else had been banned and was also almost instantly banned himself. This is of course wrong in every respect especially given the individual in question, apparently now hypocritically, is always banging on about freedom of speech. Update, the ban is permanent.

    Surprisingly, your personal data isn't safe with Facebook

    Life, James Hein, Published on 10/10/2018

    » Facebook has been in the news recently having large numbers of public profiles harvested by marketing conglomerates. Estimates from this incident alone range from 50 to 90 million users and there may be a lot more. The "more" part comes from the user search and account recovery features that may have been abused to scrape up to 2 billion or more accounts. In other words, if you are on Facebook and have any kind of public profile someone has more info on you than you might like. The feature has since been turned off but not before a lot of information went to the marketers.

    Guardians of the Galaxy

    Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 20/10/2017

    » Three years after the original was released, Destiny 2 finally hit shelves after much excitement. Bungie's mythic sci-fi FPS (that's "first-person shooter" for you noobs) stays true to its roots in being chock-filled with multiplayer features and making you obsessed with making sure your character's power level reaches high numbers by getting the rarest and most powerful loot through quests and public events. Of course, there's also the campaign for you to play through, but is this going to be another case of "expansion overload" like the first game? Does Destiny 2's multiplayer features make you want to play it over and over again, even if you're done with the story? Basically, the real question is: "Is this worth my money?"
