These are extremely old polling dates, and don't reflect changes since

First game I've 100% in a long time. I absolutely loved this game.

I have a PSN account. I can't ethically support this move that locked so many players out 4 months after buying a game. So I won't be buying until at minimum a solution is in place for all those users, but probably not even then.

Many jurisdictions have laws that require a form of payment that doesn't come with fees. I think mine requires the landlord to be able to accept cash or check without fees. If the lease says you can only pay online, and the only way to pay online requires those fees, that would be illegal in my area.

Seriously. I've never had a game pump adrenaline for me like Tarkov. Combined with the fact that over hundreds of hours of play in a wipe, I still feel like I'm making long term progress in every raid is just addicting. The core gameplay loop is just fun.

Give me a good dev who respect their players who can give me these things and there goes years of my gaming time.

Your first comment made it sound like they are hitting you on purpose. This comment makes it sound more like the infrastructure is not conductive to cycling and therefore it's dangerous to cycle in your area. I grew up in northeast Cincinnati and am an avid cyclist, and the second comment lines up with my experience while the first, that reads as if people are actively trying to hit you, doesn't line up with my experience. I think that is why you are getting down voted.

The article mentions he called 911 to surrender about an hour or two after it started.

Even if the cost was an impossibly low 10% of MSRP, that's still $30 trillion dollars based on the math above and well more than he has.

As much as I get this sentiment, I chose my profession in part because I like learning and my area requires learning new stuff all the time to stay relevant. The learning part of work is the part I enjoy and look forward to.

This isn't unusual for Enterprise grade IT hardware. Mainframes have been sold/licensed that way for decades. I recently dealt with a performance issue that we solved by buying a license to use more of a piece of hardware that was already in our data center (we didn't realize the piece we owned had twice the capacity that could be unlocked just through licensing till we engaged the vendor)

Just got one too! I tried right at launch time, eventually got locked out for too many purchase attempts while their servers were failing and had to go back to work. On whim, tried again 15 minutes ago and was able to get one shipping in 2~4 weeks. Soooo happy!

Just got a steam deck and love it. I also got the official dock and can't believe how bad it is. I have to unplug it and my TV half the time to get the dock to connect correctly. It works fine for a few days, then stops. I've had picture issues and audio issues and even issues with the deck right after disconnecting it.

As a spouse of someone who suffers from ARFID, I just wanted to pass along that there are those out there who understand the extreme suffering it can cause and recognize that the condition is not a choice you are making. She went most of her life undiagnosed and getting the diagnosis was so incredibly validating because it showed what she was experiencing was beyond her control. We wish you the best.

He mentions looking into contractors which is basically exactly this. Going through a 3rd party can make that process easier for short term needs, which is what he is saying the current situation might be.

I love Roguelikes. I love FPS. Tarkov is my favorite game, but damn does it squander it's potential.

The distribution itself shouldn't cause a large drop in the per share price since the market is aware of this coming and would view it as a high probability of happening based on current prices. Otherwise this would be the easiest short term short ever.

Constant productivity growth could allow it without constant population growth, as long as products growth exceeds impacts from population decline. This report is basically saying they don't see that happening.

I'm going to use this as an excuse to go back and play Hades 1. I bought and binged it when it first released EA, and never went back to play the released version.

(For fans of Sanderson/Cosmere) But it could be fire ...

It depends on what you feel about the future of technology. Most productivity growth comes from advances in technology. We haven't hit a maximum yet, so it's a question of if you think technology will or won't enable us to do more in the same amount of time for the indefinite future.
