Plot, characters, and writing aside, Borderlands 3 was a very well made and fun game on a technical level. I’m definitely interested in Borderlands 4, as long as we can continue to skip cutscenes lmao.

You ask who the fuck decided to sell your studio to a secretive block chain company
Most likely the private equity firm that owns your company
Perhaps some kind of teaser that hints at what your strategy is before going into full detail?
I think he’s talking about vidya
Let’s get you back to bed, gramps
which they can't outright as after a certain number of years they have to give warnings and trainings first.
I mean, says who? There’s currently only one state in the union that requires cause before you can fire someone. The real issue with firing people is that without a documented cause, that person can collect state unemployment, and the number of people who go on state unemployment from a single company has a financial impact on that company.
Aw man I didn’t even know about that. I guess 4g LTE is Amazon’s “Black Magic”
When it happened to me I was staying with a family member whose house I’d never been to before, so I didn’t have their wifi. I couldn’t believe it.
Yeah same. Until I accidentally turned it off 1,000 miles away from my computer. That was a sad day.
Until it decides to delete every single side loaded book you have on there, which they like to do from time to time. The only way to completely avoid it is to load all your content via email, which unfortunately only supports limited formats.
Not even close. To be honest you’re operating on so many incorrect assumptions and have such a lack of general knowledge of common attack surfaces or even the average scope of modern breaches, that digging you out of this hole would take so much more than what I can fit in a single comment.
So
If the password is compromised, it means the service is compromised and the password isn't really protecting anything anymore
No… just no. That isn’t how it works. In reality, what commonly happens is metadata around the service is what’s targeted and compromised. So your password, email, and other data like that are what’s stolen. Maybe in plain text, maybe something hashed that a malicious actor can brute force offline without you knowing. If you’re someone using a password in this situation, your password is then used to access your account, and that actor can do any number of things while masquerading as you, potentially entirely undetected. If you’re using a passkey on the other hand, this isn’t even something you need to worry about. They cannot get access to your passkey because the service doesn’t even have it. You are entirely immune. That is something that no amount of Passwords or bolt-ons will fix.
This is the main value of passkeys, they are not shared secrets. Not only is that a huge difference, it’s the single largest paradigm shift possible. The secondary value of passkeys is that they are immune to phishing. This is also huge, as phishing is hands down the most successful way to break into someone’s account, and happens to even the most security conscious people. If a cybersecurity researchers who write books on the topic can be phished, so too can a layman such as yourself. Hand waving away a phishing immune authentication system is unhinged behavior. And it goes to show you’re not even coming from a place of curiosity or even ignorance, but likely misinformation.
In short:
- Passkeys > Passwords
- Passkeys > Random Passwords + TOTP.
As a Borderlands sequel, or just as a game? I’ve never actually heard anyone complain about the gameplay. It’s the same gameplay the series is known for but even more refined, with tons of QoL improvements. It is quite literally the best in its class with no real equal.
The only thing I can imagine about your friends is that they didn’t get through much of the gameplay because they were turned off by the horrifically bad writing, cringelord villains, and a sense of humor firmly stuck 15 years in the past, which I would not blame them for.
