It will stop the lazy, which is 99% of the battle. If you want some form of security, then either a user generated pin or a captcha will do the trick to keep bots away. If you want to avoid both of those, then a longer url will also work. 12 characters will prevent attacks from getting anything but lucky.

Even a captcha would work. You wouldn’t have to have your users create a one time use password, you can just have a set of 5 random numbers that someone has to type in in order to access the data.

It says that once the content is accessed, it vanishes. So, you can have a max 2 day expiration length, but as soon as someone follows the link, it’s gone? It’s not a bad idea, but it is prone to abuse. I could write a scraper app that would give me all of the active URLs and in doing so would delete any message attached to them. I personally wouldn’t, because it doesn’t serve much purpose, but if there were a malicious agent, it wouldn’t take much to wreak havoc. It wouldn’t even be a DDOS level attack, just a simple scraper using minimal resources.

Truly, though, I do like it. I just think that the automatic removal might be a risky feature.

It was just a jab at the current Stop Killing Games stuff that is going on.

Lmao. Ubi shuts down The Crew, but EA is like, “idk, give anthem another 6 months.”

I don’t know, maybe I’m just used to being bad, but I’m playing Stellar Blade right now with frame gen (and according to the new Steam overly I’m 60 regular, 60 generated frames for 120 total) and it requires fairly strict timings with parries and dodges and I haven’t had any problems. I actually just wiped the floor with 2 bosses on my first attempt.

I just recently upgraded to a card capable of frame gen. As an above average gamer, I can say that I haven’t been taken out of the game yet by any weird shit, and I haven’t noticed any input lag. I’m not hardcore by any means, but I think the average player can get on board with frame gen and have a good time.

Not sure if you are joking or not, but that’s the Manson “family.” It’s the cult.

Cambodia, according to some dead people that are in the know.

Good, I hope the continue to kick ass.

They somehow managed to be a worse Limp Bizkit.

Cubes. Cubes on cubes on cubes on cubes. It’s cubes all the way down.

Michael Jackson Moonwalker, and it was a VHS. I watched it so many times the tape snapped. No regrets. Later in life I met one of the music videos directors randomly when he came into my bar. We geeked out about the video and it was super cool. For anyone interested, it was Jim Blashfield. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Blashfield

Patrick. Leo was waaaay too pompous.

Does entropy have a knife?

But if you put that $600 into a money mar…and it’s gone.

I gotta fuckin’ know…

I miss this format so much. It’s one of my favorites.
