No, Musk is just a moron. You just need to look at his interactions with former staff to realize it was his ego and inability to admit being wrong that ran the company into the ground.
He's been behaving like a bratty child, except he's the owner of the company so any tantrums he throws have direct influence.
Or he's just a narcissist that can't run a company if he's not held on a leash by people who actually know what they're doing.
ID tech is nowhere near flexible enough for something like Starfield or even Skyrim. It's partially the reason why it's so efficient. It simply isn't fit for the task.
And the Bethesda developers are intimately familiar with Creation Engine, achieving the same level of productivity with something new will take a long time. Switching the engine is not an easy thing.
Not to say that Creation Engine isn't a cumbersome mess. It has pretty awful performance, stability and is full of bugs, but on the other hand it's extremely flexible which has allowed its games to have massive mod communities.
It should be noted that setting Adguard as your DNS will allow Adguard to track the domains you visit. The latest info I can find is that a lot of their team is still located in Russia, which makes them susceptible to government demands regardless of their intentions.
DNS adblocking should be the last resort. On Android there are many ways to do system wide local adblocking (with and without root). Don't know about iOS. Alternatively you can do network level blocking with something like a pi-hole.
Because dealing with identity theft and credit fraud in your name is super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Not a very good scam when getting caught is pretty much inevitable.
The leaked email has his name on it and the leak claims it was an email from Elon to employees. Can't really tell if the leak is real or fake, but if it's real then Elon is definitely the one who wrote it.
Based on his proclivity to say dumb shit and his inability to keep his mouth shut, I'm inclined to believe it's a real leak.
they do more to mobilize the population.
Mobilize the population?
Most of the population doesn't give a fuck about their country invading Ukraine because they have their heads comfortably in the sand. Those who aren't ignoring it, either already fully support it or are fully against it.
"This is affecting me now. I don't like it" is the more likely response you'd see from the majority. They just want things to be how they were, and them going to the front is the exact opposite of it.
This "it could anger and provoke the Russians" rhetoric is not rooted in reality.
Teslas are not luxury cars lol.
It's because it's owned by a personal data vacuum corp.
You don’t need direct file access and prevents a third party device from potentially transferring malware to it.
What malware lol. ClickForFreeMoney.apk? Even then, the applications are sandboxed pretty well. Even if you install "malware" it won't be able to do much unless you also grant it permissions to access personal data.
As for trusting ad blockers, unless you are downloading and building each update yourself. You are still susceptible to a supply chain attack or bad actor even by using open source.
Most adblockers (all the good ones) don't require frequent updates. They frequently update filter lists, which don't execute any code and therefore can't do anything malicious. And what you said applies to every application ever. Anyone can have their credentials stolen and used to publish a modified application.
I’m just trying to make the argument that iPhone isn’t inferior to android and vice versa
I don't disagree, Androids and iPhones are pretty much at feature and quality parity nowadays. But it sounds like you're starting from a conclusion and working backwards, which is not a good way to think.
That's not access to the file system lol. That's just apple's cloud storage/transfer solution that requires an account and Internet. I mean you can do the exact same thing on Android with Google drive or whatever storage/sync cloud service you prefer.
