They haven’t dropped the requirement, but you have to manually go in and disable that check yourself on the windows 11 installer if you want to install it on a non-tpm 2.0 machine
Basically, it’s a faff that only the techie people will realistically do. Everyone else will just go out and buy new hardware.
This doesn’t affect valve at all though. It’s borrowing their tech that they’ve made open source, and figuring out how to use it elsewhere outside of steam.
Actually, it’ll benefit them. More eyes are on proton and any fix will benefit everyone, including games played via steam.
I’ve come to realise at least half of the stuff posted on Reddit these days, especially more so on the popular subs, are all designed to make you angry.
It’s things like posting incorrect info in the title, posting a comic / image that’s been deliberately designed to get you angry, someone really wanting their 5 minutes of fame like this guy, or some post from some bigot.
It’s so tiring. Have started to notice it on Lemmy too.
Ah yes. I missed that bit. Thanks :)
So if an iPhone gets stolen, would having Find My completely disabled actually be a bad thing if we’re trying to improve device security? I see that’s listed in the article.
Would this affect the ability to use the remote lock & wipe functionality?
Would be awesome if they somehow ended up using signal as a means to facilitate remote learning. Mind you they’d have to be very careful and hide it from any potential snitches…
Supposedly so long as it’s the Epic Online (EOL) version of EAC, then it’s about as easy as checking a tick box in the settings.
Any developer who cares enough to enable it would most likely test that it works as expected and make a couple of tweaks before announcing the support. It’s usually not a good idea to take a vendor by their word that it “just works”.
I get what you’re saying and I hate that I had to write it like that. Was saying it to point out that Mac’s just aren’t as locked down as other Apple devices so won’t be subject to the EU ruling anyway.
The entire argument is stupid anyway.
I guess if this gets argued correctly it means Apple could technically get away with not opening up the iPad, Apple TV and Apple Watch to accept other stores (Mac already lets you install apps directly from developers). I can see this still letting Apple continue to have the stranglehold over their ecosystem.
I doubt this will change much though. We all know the EU were specifically thinking about the iPhone which needs opening up.
What happened afterwards? Did you go off on a self searching quest and come to learn the real you?
Thanks,
So they haven’t made an announcement about retiring the proton bridge app yet.
I think I’ll wait until I see them actually remove it before I believe they’re locking us in.
I’ve just skimmed through the proton blog briefly and I couldn’t see anything referencing this. Do you have a link by chance?
That’s a bold claim. Got a source for this move?
WatchOS 10.2 is also needed for enabling Contact Key Verification in iOS 17.2.
You need to enable CKV yourself it seems.
Settings -> Apple ID -> scroll right down to the bottom -> contact key verification.
Got proof for that last claim?
I thought their sealed sender feature was meant to prevent exactly this scenario.
