Quoting: EikeI loved the original Desperados. Now I tried to play Shadow Tactics, but somehow...
I cannot stand the genre anymore. :-(

Interesting, Shadow Tactics actually brought me back to when I could not stop playing the original Commandos. Wild West isn't my fav setting though, so not sure if I'll be getting this one.

If I was to put a "but" to the machine, it would be the port of choice to charge it. A USB-C port would have the cherry on top.

Quoting: SolitaryHardly authentic WW2 when they deliberately censored the whole fact that you are actually fighting against Axis powers.

I don't know what version you've played, but the original versions in Spain -where the original developers were from- the games had all kinds of real symbology.

Gosh, time does pass at light-speed! There's not much that haven't been said about Proton, so I will just say a massive thanks to everyone involved.

THANKS!

It reminds me of World Rally Championship, by Gaelco. Really cool!

Very nice 2.5D choice for the game.

Quoting: Creak

Quoting: ArehandoroI face this constantly at work. And to be honest, it's bullshit. With setups like MFA from Azure AD, with the Authenticator app, where not even a code is needed to use the 2nd factor. Or with tools like Yubikey that can be used for the same, but also as main way to authentication in websites, any developer complaining about the nuisance of 2FA goes into the "Suspicious list" right away.

And there's also Bitwarden which simplifies it even more with storing the TOTP url. You don't need a second device (which is a security risk), but it is still way harder to hack your account since the hacker should have direct access to your machine in order to get both your password and the TOTP address (which are protected by a main password in Bitwarden).

Here's a very interesting blog post from Bitwarden explaining 2FA in general, and their system:
https://bitwarden.com/blog/post/basics-of-two-factor-authentication-with-bitwarden/

Also, they answer the question "some may ask what is the point of having your username, email, and your two-step login code all stored within the same application [...]? Doesn’t that negate the value of two-step login?"

Quoting: BitwardenThe answer depends. Let’s break it down.

• Your Bitwarden Vault hopefully already has two-step login using some other method. (ie. do not use the Bitwarden Authenticator to protect your Bitwarden account.) Therefore it is currently protected with a high level of security and, in fact, two-step login.


• Having two-step login enabled for websites and applications is always better than not having it enabled. A tighter bundling of two-step login makes it easier to use more frequently, which promotes better security hygiene as a practice.


• If you need to share an item, you can share it with two-step login enabled, which, again, is better security practice. This is a collaboration and two-step login power move.


• You do not need to remember which authentication app you used, since it is built in.


• You can always choose, on an individual basis, which login you want to authenticate internally within the Bitwarden app, or externally using a separate Authenticator app.

Bitwarden users find that the integrated Authenticator functionality provides faster workflows with better security and dexterity for collaboration. Users also note that they apply different policies to different types of accounts. Primary financial institutions may be authenticated externally using a separate Authenticator app, while all of their ecommerce logins are authenticated internally within Bitwarden.

Also.. Bitwarden is open source ;)

I use bitwarden personally with a yubikey as hardware 2FA plus OTP within the app :)

At work we use 1password. Plus AWS Secrets Manager. I still need to battle with people as of why is good for them haha.

Quoting: TheSHEEEPWhat an odd choice of target practice for a hacker.

Not a fan of conspiracy theories, but maybe some companies that don't like the idea of having their older titles being emulated...

QuoteHe accessed our buildbot server and crippled the nightly/stable buildbot services, and the netplay lobby service. Right now, the Core Updater won’t work. The websites for these have also been rendered inaccessible for the moment

He gained access to our Libretro organization on Github impersonating a very trusted member of the team and force-pushed a blank initial commit to a fair percentage of our repositories, effectively wiping them. He managed to do damage to 3 out of 9 pages of repositories. RetroArch and everything preceding it on page 3 has been left intact before his access got curtailed.

Do they already know it was a he?

QuoteThis little detail was left out of their announcement, but they didn't force 2FA which appears to be how the attacker actually got in. Speaking on Twitter, they mentioned how some developers felt it was "too much of a pain" and they didn't want to lose those contributors.

And I'm a "quick to pull the trigger" kind of admin when it comes to revoking access to systems xD

Amazing! Tempted getting this.

How's the player base nowadays? Is it based on e3.5 or e5? Is the game, and community, welcoming for a new inexperienced player? How easy is to implement mods and player content in Linux?
