I just re-read the comment chain and saw it was mentioned before. Oops lol

Might be unbreakable, but all the attacker has to do is put money on it once and then just duplicate the card. You don't need to beat the encryption. You just need to make the machine think the card is legit

Is this a crime? Thoughts? in c/[email protected]

Yea but that's different than mixing it before putting it between two slices of bread. Definitely a crime

I'd rather deal with a poorly designed bottle cap than half the shit we have to deal with here in the US. There's a reason you're getting down voted. What you said is so narrow sighted that it's not even funny.

We have MUCH larger issues we have to deal with than a stupid bottle cap. "Glad I don't have to deal with that here" is showing a willingness to ignore everything else.

Is THAT your litmus for freedom?! In some states women can't choose to have an abortion. And in all of the states people have to choose between going to the doctor or paying rent that month... But goddamnit, at least they don't have to deal with those pesky tethered bottle caps!

Ootl... What's going on with that particular power plant?

Nope. They claim that some of it has to do with Unity and the way the engine is coded and not just their own code... Which might be true to an extent, but they've also admitted that their own code is hard to work with because it's all gotten so complex.

As for selling their own cheats... Man who knows... Money IS a great motivator.

Can't blame you, tbh... It's been a shit show. Hopefully they figure it out, but they've been pretty tone deaf at every turn over the past few years so it's likely that they'll just try to ride this out until the community just kinda... forgets about it. Which is sad. One reason being that we shouldn't be in this position to begin with... The other is that it shows that companies can literally just bend us all over and as long as they walk back the extreme behaviour a little bit, they'll get away with it.

I've killed more than a few people with bigger pockets than normal and it just saddens me that people can actually support this nonsense.
