My understanding is they already made it more annoying. Your devices have to connect to the home accounts “home” wifi within a certain amount of time or that device gets locked out.

I quit Netflix when they announced the pilot program for removing account sharing in South America, and I stand by that decision to this day.

The reason why is greed. That’s the only reason for capitalism.

So a car wash?

There’s an awful lot of billionaires. Don’t want it to take too long or we’ll be hacking at necks all day.

I feel like this belongs on the powertrippinbastards com.

Or even the reddit community.

I mean. Google literally just announced their new Aluminum OS. Like. 2-3 days ago I saw an article about it. Let me find it.

I see some suggestions on Reddit that it might be useable on phones. Nothing about that in the article so far as I read.

On the positive side though, following all that backlash, Microsoft acknowledged Windows has issues, and as if on cue, the company in a new support article has admitted that there are problems on almost every major Windows 11 core feature. The issues are related to XAML and this impacts all the Shell components like the Start Menu, Taskbar, Explorer, and Windows Settings.

• Explorer.exe crash
• shelhost.exe crash
• StartMenuExperienceHost issues
• System Settings silently fails to launch
• Application crashes when initializing the XAML views
• Explorer running but no taskbar window.
• other XAML island views fail to initialize.
• ImmersiveShell problems

Why does no one remember that Highlander literally had a whole plot predicated on undoing it?

And Highlander of all things.

Glen and Friends has never let me down. I’d recommend the channel.

Yeah. I’ve never been asked but now I wonder if that’s why. Haven’t heard of anyone with a drinking aged account having to do this.

I agree that you’re right. My thought was it was more likely that they socially engineered their way into getting invited to the chat.

This is why I said that a lot of people are the weakest link in their own secured communications networks.

Uninstalling allowed grub to boot Bazzite normally with no errors for me so right now that’s maybe the best we can hope for. I also don’t want to re-install all my plugins.

Yeah. I dunno man. I’m sorry.

But like. A lot of the time security/privacy fails like this are user-inflicted. Either because people don’t understand the apps and services they use, or because other people aren’t as vigilant about auditing their networks (the people, the hardware the software).

Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling?

Also, perhaps just checking for updates? When I checked for updates I could see that there was a new update for decky loader but at that point I had decided to uninstall it anyway to prevent future problems.

That’s why I said an app like signal. People assume that every app works the same. Telegram had issues with encryption where all parties didn’t have encryption enabled but one or more of the parties involved assumed the chat was still encrypted.

However I should probably change that to read more along the lines of: know the features and settings of your app and ensure that encryption settings are set to maximize the protection of privacy.

I’m gonna have to workshop that. It’s a mouthful.

Either way, thank you for pointing that out.

I don’t know who still needs to hear this, so I’m going to say it again for the people in the back.

Assume every form of communication you have is being spied on.

If you’re using an app like signal or similar, make sure you and everyone else in the chat has encryption enabled.

Verify the other users in the chat.

Do not plan any activity that could be considered a criminal enterprise on an electronic device with a connection to the internet.

So, I’ve been looking into this for myself and it looks like what’s broken is the MagicPods module in deckyloader. If you previously installed that, you can try uninstalling decky and then re-installing it and leave that module out of the reinstall/setup process and see if that works.

At this point I’m gonna leave decky uninstalled on my system mostly because I’m pretty tired of it breaking.

The court ruled that cloudflare made it too easy to register an account and create a domain. And that they didn’t do enough to prevent those domains from being used for piracy.

Apparently under Japanese law that’s the barrier of proof they needed to cross.

I normally have to go in (uninstall just deckloader), and reinstall deckyloader when this happens. There’s no way that I have found to do it otherwise and it’s happened to me at least three times now.

I’m sure there probably is another way, but I haven’t had success with anything but the uninstall/reinstall method.
