On their blog they explain they initially went for a reboot, but their editor refused to finance it and wanted "just" a remaster.

So they choose to do a remake instead.

To be fair, thy said the one player game campaign doesn't need it, but multiplayer did.

That's still the case and that's why steam is giving refund: people are basically buying the game with part missing.

Did you read the article?

This system basically do a character recognition on EVERYTHING the user is displaying and save the results in a very small file not that well protected.

The data is very small (I guess because it's basically text?), seems easy to find. That means the history of all you did on your computer (apparently only for the last three feays by default,but well...) can be stolen at once, in a minuscule file.

I'm not an IT specialist, but I don't see in which world this can remotely be a good idea...

Based on what Microsoft themselves said we know: everything will be stored (except edge private session...). They specifically say they don't do content moderation: they log everything.

Did you read the article?

Q. Cool, so hackers and malware can’t access it, right?

A. No, they can.

Q. But it’s encrypted.

A. When you’re logged into a PC and run software, things are decrypted for you. Encryption at rest only helps if somebody comes to your house and physically steals your laptop — that isn’t what criminal hackers do.

As a windows user I'm not delighted by this.

Edit: at this point you must be trolling...

Euuuuh I don't know in the US but in Europe "corn flakes" have so much sugar they are everything except healthy

Whouah, okay so all the good things removed.

Fuck the employees I guess?

From what I've noted down, the main problem I had with the zenfone was a short update coverage (up to 2025 for the Zenfone 10 I think?)

Thanks for the article, interesting read!

“Many companies are realizing they could have been a lot more measured in their approach, rather than making big, bold, very controversial decisions based on executives’ opinions rather than employee data,” Larry Gadea, Envoy’s CEO and founder, tells CNBC Make It.

Yeah, business as usual (added the strike)

Rather the world...

See the "so that's why we can't have nice things" law.

Shit, soap, anything anybody dump in his toilets and sink is going in the sea without treatment?

Greaaaat...

Hadn't had much news on bungie since I left Destiny when discovered the hybrid cashgrab/turd that was Lightfall. Reddit was my main source of info, so leaving it for Lemmy didn't help.

I had no idea they went trough a massive layoff.

It's a shame, most of what I had against D2 was clearly management-related and the team feelt so talented (Arts, Gameplay, story...).

Ah that's true, I realize it now that you put it your finger in it: ME2 is really a "let's tour the universe" kind of story fleshing out the background of known races (and adding new ones) and places.

Ah nice! So my old ways of doing things (alt in destroyer with 4 tractor beam and 4 salvager) seems obsolete now.

Ah they kept the graphical choice of Planetary Annihilation... Not my favorite (I know, purely personal taste).

Like the idea a lot thought. Could be fun to have a "two mans team" mode where you can split the tasks however you want (two different fronts with production and battle? One full production and one commander? Etc..)

Wasn't Planetary Annihilation developed by Uber? I need to take a look a the kickstarter. Thanks for the share!

Aaaaah?

I'll check the pixel "a" line then, thanks! :D

Edit: from what I could find, there is persistent rumors that Google will stop the a series with the 7a as the last model.

I don't know much about GrapheneOS, but if there is a S23 compatible version, I think I'll tend toward this phone.

Ah then, as I feared, my bank app isn't on the list :/

Went back to it last month after a 10 years yatus.

Game still here, with a lot of changes since.

However, it's still requiring a lot of time an commitment. And I realized that I don't have either to give to a video game now.

Damn I was also thinking of taking the FP5, but your report of it being sluggish really make me reconsider.

It's really a shames they do a home run on everything else and then fails just on the UX at the end...

Edit: ans reading below, slow and irregular security update is even worse....

Subnautica is DRM free on steam? Nice! I wanted to give it to try to my father, but he doesn't want a steam account.

Yeah I was going to say: who's this guy?

Ah, good to know I'll check for my specific banking app. Thanks!

I was going to post this video. I highly recommend it (and don't stop at its title, it covers a large amount of subjects).

Ah I might have confused the two phones. I had read it in a comment on this community a while back.

I was Impressed by the Google traduction from Polish to English, the article was Was to read!

Same here!

I had to get rid of the 2nd edition one year ago because of a contact/short issue. :(

So useful to know who was speaking in mumble/teamspeak when I had only one screen...

And the shortcut keys were useful at the time (I don't have much use for them now).

Edit: I've seen the video and yes, I forgot how CLEAR the software was. It was extremely easy to set, set the shortcuts to work as you wanted.

The current new logitec soft/driver is an utter shit, buggy, extremely confusing (I gave up on trying to setup the backlight how I want it because how stupidly confusing the UI is) and crashing all the time.

I meant, it just makes things more complicated than "classic" RTS, making the pause even more helpful (giving precise order can be complicated, but I've only tried one control type out of two-ish)

Honestly during the campaign it's really helpful.

Compared to the two previous games, this one require more micro management (or at least benefit from it).

And "other RTS games [requires micro management] as well, without pause": indeed, but playing in full 3D/volume complicate things.

Edit: trying to rephrase for clarity

I'd be curious to see the sale results of the games while takeling the amount of console/PC present as well as the market size during the release year.

We might have surprise about results of all the games with these parameters.

Well I'd simply want to avoid giving biometric data to Google...

Exactly what I was thinking xD

I played the first two, but not Arkham Knight.

I've heard a lot of good thing about the batmobile addition in it and would love to use this opportunity to test it out :)

Never touched the "shadow of..." license but heard a lot of good as well. Curious to try them out as well (even if batman probably more my thing).

Ahaha I have the same problem. https://sh.itjust.works/post/13148131

Another thing is that the pixel8a has been leaked and that it solves the biggest Pixel 8 issue: The camera bar is thinner.

Same here. However the lack of security update + battery life ans slowness is pushing me toward a new phone.

A shame, it's still in good condition. And that small form factor is becoming more and more rare...

Yeah that what I tought: if I pay, what is my guarantee you won't collect and sell my info on top of that?

If I'm not mistaken Guyana already have deals with both Chinese and US (Exxon? Can't remember) oil companies for petrol extraction.

So the US could just defend their interest.

But I think leaving it up to Brazil would be much smarter.

Ahaha I had exactly the same reaction xD

Swiss post is the worst... Abusing the state monopoly given to them to push their shitty login platform for EVERYTHING.

I bet this platform is as safe as all the rest...

Ah you ça change the data storage easily? Hmmmm thanks for pointing this out.

Whaaaaaat? They made a game for this lego serie? OK now I NEED to try it. Thanks for the share!
