Combat in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is one of the strongest parts of the game. Despite it being a turn-based system‚ the developers have managed to find a way to make positioning matter just as much‚ if not more‚ than it does in action combat. One of the examples of this is knockback.

Image: OpenAI When OpenAI announced other people could build their own custom versions of ChatGPT-style chatbots‚ I was initially only interested in a journalistic way. I knew this was an interesting commercial step for OpenAI‚ but the value of the store is still an open question. Why should I use most GPTs (as the bots are called)‚ when I can usually call up an app that does the same thing? But I can’t deny there’s one incredibly useful bot that’s changed a (small) part of my work life for the better. It’s called “What’s Another Word For‚” and I made it myself. “What’s Another Word For” is a tool to help me find exactly that: another word for terms I overuse. Writing is about 60 percent looking for a synonym to avoid repeating phrases‚ and it’s not... Continue reading…

Many of the posts circulating the offending images are still live. | Illustration: The Verge Sexually explicit AI-generated images of Taylor Swift have been circulating on X (formerly Twitter) over the last day in the latest example of the proliferation of AI-generated fake pornography and the challenge of stopping it from spreading. One of the most prominent examples on X attracted more than 45 million views‚ 24‚000 reposts‚ and hundreds of thousands of likes and bookmarks before the verified user who shared the images had their account suspended for violating platform policy. The post was live on the platform for around 17 hours prior to its removal. But as users began to discuss the viral post‚ the images began to spread and were reposted across other accounts. Many still remain up‚ and a deluge of new graphic fakes have... Continue reading…

Apple always states that "privacy is a fundamental human right" and does everything to keep user's data safe from third-party apps and developers trying to sell this information to others. While Apple itself doesn't consider the way it collects data harmful‚ as it wants to bring "personalized content" to its customers‚ it's impossible to say that its operating systems can always prevent third-party apps from tracking our usage. Mysk researchers recently published a study showing how Facebook‚ X‚ TikTok‚ LinkedIn‚ Bing‚ and many other apps use a " Fingerprinting " technique to harvest data from your iPhone with just a push notification. In a short YouTube video‚ they explain how data-hungry apps use the background execution time allocated by iOS to customize notifications to send app analytics. Interestingly‚ apps on iOS don't run in the background‚ mostly due to privacy and performance. This is why background execution time is very restricted for developers. But starting with iOS 10‚ Apple added a feature that allows apps to customize push notifications even if they are not running. Mysk researchers explain that "iOS wakes the app in the background when it receives a notification and allows a limited time to customize the notification before it is presented to the user. This includes decrypting an encrypted payload and downloading additional content to enrich the notification. Once the app hands in the customized notification to the system or the background time allocated runs out‚ the app is terminated‚" the researchers explain. With that‚ these data-hungry apps can identify unique signals about the user's iPhone data that allow for fingerprinting and tracking across different apps developed by different developers. What is Apple doing about that? What can I do to prevent third-party developers from accessing my iPhone data? Mysk reiterates that Apple does not allow fingerprinting with customers' iPhones‚ and it will require that developers declare why their apps need access to APIs that provide signals commonly used for this practice. For now‚ all you can do is turn off notifications from some of these apps‚ as this way‚ they can't use this practice to get your iPhone's data.

Stop me if you've heard this before‚ but another Netflix price hike might be in the works. Or so Netflix just warned.  Netflix has recently increased the prices of two ad-free tiers‚ and one of them is about to be retired. The Basic plan is going away in the second quarter of 2024‚ starting in the UK and Canada. Netflix announced the news earlier this week during its earnings report for the fourth quarter of 2024.  The move means existing Netflix subscribers who are still on the $11.99 Basic plan will have to downgrade to the ad-supported $6.99 plan or upgrade to the ad-free $15.49 plan. The goal of all of this is for Netflix to make more money so it can improve the content it offers... or so Netflix says. And it's very clear that some of the original Netflix content needs improving.
