Like, extremely obvious. It could only be more obvious if they wrote "THIS IS SATIRE" at the top.

Steam Frame Unboxing & Setup Videos Leak, Pointing to Imminent Launch
Reply in thread
Yeah, I've been really looking forward to this thing, but I don't like that little blurb at all. I totally get needing a sign-in to run Steam-purchased games directly on the headset, but it shouldn't be required for streaming or any of the other functionality. When a product requires sign-in to function, if that sign-in stops working for some reason (no internet, product out of support due to age, etc) then that product becomes an expensive brick. I'm hoping they just mean that it requires a sign-in to be used in standalone mode with Steam games. We'll see.

Android verification is coming: Google confirms timeline and supported app stores - Ars Technica
Hey Google, could you not dictate what I'm allowed to install on my own damn device for my "safety"? I don't need a third parent, and if I had to pick one it wouldn't be you.

Microsoft admits Windows 11 has a GDID tracker with no off switch, first documented publicly in an FBI hacker complaint
Something this article glosses over is the fact that Microsoft knew all of the web URLs he was visiting. I don't know if that's because he was dumb enough to sign into Edge with his Microsoft account or if they were collecting that a different way, but the GDID wouldn't have been nearly as useful without that info.

"The Hat", a shape that tiles but never makes a repeating pattern
When these went viral in 2022 I read the research paper and found out that not only do they form a non-repeating pattern, but that non-repeating pattern relies on the occasional tile being reversed. That inspired me to 3D print a bunch of these that were a different color on each side and try assembling them. It's very interesting, because you have a lot of options for how to put them together, but occasionally you'll hit a point where the pattern itself forces you to put one in upside down, even though it's non-repeating. Also, it's possible to put it together "wrong" where at one edge you can't add any more tiles in either orientation and have to disassemble part of it to continue. Very interesting to mess with.
