[Breaking "DRM" in Polish trains [video] – 37c3 presentation](https://lemmy.ml/post/9838186)
Description
>You've probably already heard the story: we got contracted to analyze a bunch of trains breaking down after being serviced by independent workshops. We reverse engineered them and found code which simulated failures when they detected servicing attempts. We presented our findings at 37C3… and then shit hit the fan.
>This talk will be an update about what happened since our 37C3 presentation. We’ll talk about:
>- Three parliamentary workgroup sessions with dirty bathroom photos on Newag’s offtopic slides, train operators revealing that they paid Newag more than 20k EUR for unlocking a single train, which Newag was able to unlock in 10 minutes, and at the same time saying that they don’t know anything about the locks.
>- 140-page lawsuits, accusing us of _copyright violation and unfair competition_ (sic!) with a lot of logical gymnastics.
>- How it’s like to repeatedly explain reverse engineering concepts to journalists.
>- 6 official investigations, two of them criminal.
>- New cases revealed since then (from different train operators).
>- and much more!

- Battlefield 4 / 1 / V - just campaigns. What I remember from playthroughs were nice graphics and cool sound effects.
- Sniper Elite V2 Remastered - I have done it in few coop sessions with my brother. The ability to finish the full singleplayer campaign in coop is a great feature in games and this is what I look for nowadays.
- Hellblade: Senua Sacrifice - quite repetitive mechanic, but for story lovers is very fun to sink in
- Start Wars Battlefront II - similar opinion like for Battlefield series, singleplayer only for me
- Superliminal - fun game concept
- Layers of Fear 1&2/Blair Witch - I have rushed these games just for the sake of completion of my backlog titles.
- The Stanley Parable - comedy gold, frustrating at times, quite short, but highly recommended classic
- Aperture Desk Job - fun, interactive controller test game from Valve
- Serious Sam: Double D XXL - classic platformer from Serious Same universe with funny gun upgrades mechanic, with no political correctness
And some free short games/prologues:
- Outpath: First Journey - relaxing, but kinda simplistic Minecraft wannabe game
- Ale & Tale Tavern: First Pints - tavern manager game from first person view in medieval times
- The Riftbreaker: Prologue - solid prologue for strategy game with robots and aliens
- Helltaker - logic, rogue like game with nice humour
- The Looker - play The Witness first to get the reference, because this game is a parody
- Neon Beats - fun platformer, rhytm game
- Clap Clap - short, horror game
- Cats Hidden in Paris - find all cats on drawing type of game
Ben Werdmuller, a tech leader at ProPublica, discusses the trust crisis in Meta's Threads app after his comment about the Internet Archive's legal issues unexpectedly attracted a hostile audience. He was surprised by accusations of engagement farming, prompting him to question the assumptions behind such claims. Werdmuller discovered that Meta has been paying certain creators up to $5,000 for viral posts, leading to a climate where all content is viewed with suspicion.
I just found an quite old repo https://github.com/Terremer/VidyaScape and issue tracker with website code on https://gitlab.com/vscape
It seems the source is closed, but you can ask on irc.rizon.net OR [email protected].

I have added 2 Steam and 1 GOG game libraries to my HLTB account. Then I have categorized the games based on completion/pad controller usage etc.
Afterwards due to long backlog of games I have sorted the list by main story completion time from the shortest and began playing one by one. Of course not all are worthy/interesting enough to finish, but most are.
Having the list and the goal of going through these titles let me focus what I already have instead of grabbing another title, which will stay in library for the next months or years.
Also you wont have to worry about new releases, because you have already something to finish with certain goal in mind, will effortlessly wait until the price drops significantly with nice cut, all dlcs, packed in Limited/Definitive/GOTY edition.

Sorry, for bad cross posts, but it seems that I can’t replace the original URL with new link to yewtu.be video and this is why I got 3 crosspots while trying to fix it.
