I doubt there will be a public beta, as Chris Roberts has been extremely reluctant to share footage for fear of spoilers. If there is, it will only be of a limited portion of the game - likely for content already demoed.
There won't be a public beta because there isn't one. And not likely to be one in the next 13 years. Why deliver? No one's holding them accountable for the nearly billion dollars they've already spent.

Eons too late IMO, but it'd be nice if it lit a fire under FF14's housing system design to change it for the better. Bidding on limited housing slots is just so lame.
Yeah, its not like they need to clear/acquire land for a new subdivision. And truthfully, the lottery system is confusing.

This will reach 100 comments for sure. If it doesn't, I'll point out that this post is still in early alpha.
I think this will be the most accurate comment on this story.

If Russia stops fighting, the war ends. If Ukraine stops fighting, Ukraine ends. Slava Ukraini!
Amen.

US senators propose mandated MFA, encryption in healthcare • The Register.

Its astonishing that its not already. I don't work in the healthcare industry and I practically have to MFA just to take a dump.

Our data is the product, YouTube has operated on this premise for a good number of years.

So true. It's always amazing to me how many people don't realize how and where their data is used as a product.

Not too many folks using those versions of Windows or MacOS anyway: https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/Steam-Hardware-Software-Survey-Welcome-to-Steam.

Guess for the folks remaining, its time to upgrade.

Agreed. It should have been 31.5 million per user per breach. There's no point in the fine if it is just a cost of doing business.

Couldn't agree more; with a portion of that going to those of us who've had our data breached instead of the $0.12 check and LifeLock Monitoring for a year.

I really wish they would stiffen these fines; 31.5 mil to a company making billions is a rounding error.

Musk is such a tool. He shut off access to Starlink in Ukraine because he didn't like how it was being used as a tool of war. Just how does he think spy satellites are used?!

Does any previous employee have anything positive to say about EA?

Well, to be honest, unless we believe in crazy conspiracies like EA buying reviews, their Glassdoor score is not too shitty at a 4.0 (the industry average is 3.6).
ll of the other snowflakes.
I wouldn't believe a Glassdoor review. At my job, we're encouraged to post positive reviews on Glassdoor. Generally around the same time they send 'anonymous' surveys with links that have warnings "not to share with anyone".

I suspect that the negative reviews either don't make it up there or get surpressed.

Your washing machine could be sending 3.7 GB of data a day.
Another home thermostat found vulnerable to attack.

Yeah, this is one of the reasons we're keeping our appliances and heating system as low tech possible for as long as possible.

Wow. That is...monumentally fucking stupid.

I know the KSP2 dev effort has been a clusterfuck of epic proportions to the point that it makes the original KSP dev effort look sane, measured, and reasonable but goddamn!

Who the actual fuck thought "Hey, let's store temp values in the registry" was a good idea?

Guess they weren't thinking about the problem at scale. Perhaps they thought "Hey, someone is going to play this for 2 or 3 days, realize its in a sorry state and never play it again."

This game will never be completed until all the funding for it dries up. at that point the game will never be completed.

So let me see if I've got this - you're saying it will never be completed?
