It was great when it was proposed, but since it was proposed only 2 times out of 10 you ended up wasting more time.
Still it would be nice to see it return as a functional feature 👍

Well to be honest I don’t remember exactly how it didn’t work on my other computer since it was months ago.
I just want to future proof the ability to clone my Surface Go install on any future computer just in case.
Well thanks for your precise answer. It’s nice to have some civilized people being able to just discuss about a topic.
We can just agree to disagree before I leave the topic 😅
That’s the thing, often you don’t know if someone has committed a crime and looking into their phone can also prove that they’re not guilty.
I ain’t talking about any method outside of the law. Willingly cooperating isn’t illegal. Nothing forces you to be friendly with your neighbors, but being friendly with your neighbor isn’t illegal.
Because your friend would just be doing it out of curiosity, not as part of an investigation.
I’m not saying that anyone not unlocking their phone has done something illegal, but just that some people who are refusing to give something willingly to the police is making them waste precious time which could be used to catch up with the bad guy.
Again I can only talk about my country and maybe in the US cops are awful, I don’t know. But I know that family of victims would love people to just cooperate with the police and not make them waste time…
I totally agree with you and that’s what we have in my country.
At least someone on Lemmy is not jumping on the ACAB stuff train.
People are the first one to criticize us (sometimes with good reasons) but they are the first one to call us when they are in deep shit.
If someone from your family gets abducted and the police can ask your neighbors to cooperate and give information without everyone just using a right to remain silent or lie, I’m sure you would be happy with the time gained to help you find your family member.
Employé de l’état à Genève, je suis contraint d’utiliser un iPhone et Windows au travail.
Je lis donc cet article avec enthousiasme et j’espère que bientôt nous ne ferons plus appel aux géants des GAFAM pour notre administration.
I agree with you, you can’t know for sure that you’re with a good or bad cop.
But you also have to comply with laws if you don’t want to get in trouble.
I can only answer for my country and I can tell you that here you’re gonna waste way less time if you show what’s in your phone and we can see that you’re innocent.
The time not wasted there might also be used to catch the person who’s really guilty.
I’ll just give you an example even if it’s not reated to unlocking phones: A black BMW 335i is filmed hitting a pedestrian and the plate number finishes with a 5. We’re gonna need to have a look at every BMW within these parameters. If you prevent the police from checking your car by hiding it, a guilty guy might have more time to hide his car and a crime is gonna go unpunished, leaving a victim with no one to pay for his injuries.
Of course, that reality might be different elsewhere. It’s just that I have noticed that on Lemmy cops are only seen as bad guys when, in my case, I spend a lot of time helping people.
I’m a cop and I can tell you that, at least in my country, you’d have no reason to not unlock your phone if you haven’t done anything.
I can understand that in some countries cops can be seen as criminals (and are behaving like criminals), but I don’t think a generality should be made. Just like a generality shouldn’t be made about people from an origin all doing the same bad thing.
Also don’t take advices from what you see on Lemmy as every user comes from a different country with different laws.
In my country, we can take your phone but we aren’t allowed to unlock it without your consent or without a prosecutor saying so.
Steam Deck is really tempting but I’ve seen a lot of videos where people are struggling to find settings in order to be able to play a game, especially the latest AAA games.
A Steam Deck is less powerful than a PlayStation 4, so you might not be able to play a lot of future games.
Still the concept is really tempting and I might one day buy a Steam Console or Steam Deck 2 instead of a PlayStation 6 depending on the direction Sony is taking.
I also love the fact that Valve is supporting Linux.
Yeah but the tinkering involved with PC gaming is stopping me from making the jump.
Same with the fact that developers don’t get fixed hardware for around 7 years and you can’t know how well a game is gonna run on your computer.
For now I prefer the cheap Linux admin computer and the console for gaming.
I’m paying around 70$ for the base PlayStation plus in Switzerland and I’m happy with the games I’m getting for free with it. It allowed me to discover quite a few games I’d have never tried otherwise.
If it gets more expensive, I might clearly cancel it, but now I still feel like it’s a good deal.
I’m more worried about the prices of console hardware going up and almost equaling a pc while still having to pay for online or stuff like that…
Really useful tool!
It even helped me as my Surface Go didn’t want to boot on a USB drive, but accepted to boot on it through Ventoy.
It’s one of these miracle software 👍
Some of the things he said are what’s keeping me on PlayStation. You just get the game (probably update it) and you can play it without worries.
I love Linux, but I don’t think I’m ready yet to become a PC gamer unless Sony tries some really anti consumer shit like getting rid of discs while still letting you locked in their PlayStation store.
I’d be willing to pay extra to buy a retro compatibility feature, but never as a subscription.
At first I thought they were talking about compatibility with every previous PlayStation, including the third one.
Sadly we’re not even sure that’s coming for the PlayStation 6.
I really enjoy Gran Turismo 7 even if it lacks a proper career mode and the AI isn’t good.
Looking forward to Asseto Corsa 2 as people were really happy with the first one and I haven’t played it.
Il ne reste plus qu’aux joueurs à ne pas l’acheter pour que Sony comprenne que ce modèle de marché n’intéresse pas les joueurs sur console.
I’ve watched the trailer and it doesn’t look good enough to justify buying the remake I think.
I also fear that I may just be too old for Metal Gear. I used to love them though and I’ve played all of them at least 3 times, except the fifth one which was just a huge disappointment.
