Yep. More accurate reading by it “feeling” your finger instead of “seeing” your finger.

Nominal upgrade but an upgrade none the less.

A lot more benefit comes from how fast the software can detect you trying to unlock your phone, waking the phone, enabling the thumbprint reader (sonic vs light), then decoding the print and finally waking to your home screen.

I love the feature that lets me open the phone to home screen from the phone being asleep. Just put your thumb on a black screen in the right spot and boom, already at the home screen.

Old oneplus gang! Dozens of us!

Yep same sentiment. My friend group of 4 isnt playing it. Either playing throne and liberty (f2p until bored) or last epoch/PoE. Im catching up on some single player games.

Reminds me of a mix between diablo (the old one lol) and vampire slayer. Been playing it since it was only a couple maps and it’s definitely worth it if you like vampire survivor-esqe games.

That the mouse that you cant use while you charge it?

My favorite month in the dual-year. Junetobuary.

Glad im not the only one. We’ll suffer together i guess.

Yeah, the “let no one else use it” portion of my comment is what i meant when you say “patent owners are generally more than happy to license their tech”

I hope ford doesn’t.

And yes while patents dont grant exclusivity it gives a company the option to try and argue that a competitors version isnt novel enough. In the USA, where ford is from, patent law screwery is abounds if you have enough money. Of which Ford is backed by the US government.

Im not here to point out whether or not the patent is the issue. The problem is the spying and selling of personal data. If ford proceeds in a way that limits that exposure to the rest of car manufacturers then fantastic, even if its only in a nominal way.

I do still appreciate your refresher on how patents work though! Hope the rest of your day goes well.

Honestly good. Let no one else use that technology. Then all i have to do is not buy a ford.

That said, if you plug your phone into your car, this tech is already in place lol.

If i cant enjoy watching two middle aged men get excited about bowling a spare on a Tuesday afternoon then what are video games good for!

I think that last paragraph precisely summarizes the flaw in 90% of the discourse about this. People are trying to solve a problem that shouldn’t exist to need to be solved.

If you set your goal to scale the industry wayyyy back, all of a sudden it becomes sustainable again. Just like it was 10 years ago. Society based on endless growth is unsustainable and all that yeah?

What was the anaology? We’re too busy trying to figure out the best position to have sex with our own mothers instead of trying to have less sex with our own mothers?

Remember to wait for the golden ultra edition on PC at 50% off before buying or you’ll miss all the dlc and 2 different versions with 20% of the content they cut out of the base game!

And its $20 instead of $15. So its actually MORE money for blizz to buy via in game gold

NOOOOOOOOO

Who’s steve jobs?

The stones will cry nut was how i read it at first and it got a laugh from me

We’d need sleipnir for extra difficulty.

And all i see is guitar hero patterns

The center is not blue, the furniture is. There is very-much-so a yellow seethrough pattern around the outside of the image.

While my personal view of the world has my nose a lot further down and not nearly as in the way, its probably because of my genetics and face makeup.

If this image is truly to-shape and not just a picture to describe the concept, this persons nose is relatively forward compared to the tip of their eye and the upper ridge of their lip would be pronounced enoughto block vision.

Assumedly though, this image isnt a real trace of someones vision.

For those confused. The yellow is the view from one eye blocked.

So the clear in the center is what both eyes see. The yellow on the RIGHT is what the LEFT eye has blocked, and the opposite for the Left of the image being what is blocked for the right eye.
