I swear most posts I see on this sub are less technology and more "what is going on in us politics and might involve a phone or computer somehow" lol

I'm playing Assassin's Creed Mirage. It's a nice change from the gigantic 100 hour open world epics that the series makes now and it's a very nice looking and sounding game. The story is fairly standard for AC games (although there's no Animus/modern day storyline this time), and the gameplay feels like what AC1 would have been if they made it today. Overall I am enjoying it a lot. I haven't been able to play video games for the past month because I've been recovering from a major surgery but this has been a nice game to start up now that I can play games again.

I had surgery recently that put me on opioids to help with pain management and this happened to me constantly for the whole week I was on them. Shit sucks.

Governments spying on Apple, Google users through push notifications - US senator in c/technology@lemmy.world

Yeah, it's a uniquely fucked up situation that in 99.9% of cases apps can only send a notification through Google's or apple's servers and there's no alternative available like using UnifiedPush or annihilating battery life.
