Apple fanboys drooling over the company as it continues to shit on them.

Game is good. People like to talk about stuff they like.

It's pretty awful that people like Phil define themselves by the ruin they can inflict on society.

Article is misleading. These systems are never a single unit. There's parts spread around where radar is separate from launchers, and other components etc. It's not clear in the article what exactly was destroyed.

Revenue. Doesn't matter what they're worth.

This just means they can now openly wear their swastika pins.

Hardly anyone is streaming it. It's the same cringy dialogue with the same boring game as its predecessors. I haven't seen anything in any of the streams that would change my mind.

The issue is with the specific protocol being used. It's not made public or documented. It's almost all though they're interested in torturing him instead of humanely executing him.

This is just another parameter that will now be built into future chat software; no high level control over channels or groups by any central authority. The Internet will route around all obstacles.

I get nervous about her discovering I'm married to someone else.

Nice try, FBI.

I once worked a call centre during late shift and my manager asked us to clean the bathrooms. I told him they can hire a janitor because I won't be cleaning anything since I wasn't hired to clean. Didn't have to clean the bathrooms. Sometimes standing up for yourself works

Heavy vibes from Ƭ̵̬̊, the artist formerly known as Prince.

This guy has no idea what geopolitics is and how the East is playing it.

Wasn't this more or less the premise of Chinatown (1974)?

Yes, they are used, but typically in specialized applications which is why you don't see them every day.

Probably this guy was already on someone's radar and they were just waiting for him to fuck around. Then they let him find out.

Go watch people actually play it in twitch or steam or YouTube. See if you like it. Why wait for someone else's opinion?

I remember reading last year that all the assistant services like Alexa and Siri and Google are costing these companies a fortune with almost zero return. It's not surprising they're looking for additional revenue streams.

If people haven't figured out how to mitigate rejection of implants to at least 99% they shouldn't even be attempting this kind of nonsense.

Wait until they discover Hamas is funded by Netanjahu. Then the investigation will quietly sputter out.

This is the fascist playbook.

History has proven time and time again that this is the worst possible way to do that. Israel is either stupid or is acting intentionally with another purpose.

This is actually a huge joke on the film and television industry. Back when Napster blew up the music industry was in a full panic that their industry would die while film and TV were cozy because the media was too large to mass-pirate compared to music.

The music guys figured it out. Cheap subscriptions with massive catalogues that don't disappear.

Movie and TV still hasn't figured this out.

When the effort to maintain the automation outstrips the benefit. This can happen often in dynamic environments with many moving parts.

I still don't know why people are willing to give up remoting so willingly. With X it was always easy to send your accelerated video securely over the network. Didn't Wayland drop this? How are people remoting securely into Wayland desktops now?

Lol, fuck Russia.

It's brilliant. Let's hope the taxes are actually spent as intended.

Can't they just kick him out of the party?

Correct. In fact, this applies wage pressure upward because employees no longer feel the necessity to stick with a shit-paying job.

Just saw Across the Spider-Verse. That movie is so beautiful. You can literally pause on any frame and you're looking at an artistic masterpiece.

I watched it on a large OLED in 4k HDR, so ymmv. While it takes a really high place, my favourite is still PREDATOR; just an awesome script.

If I was a Republican I'd be fucking embarrassed to have someone who is obviously looking this weak and sick as a prominent party leader.

This is how Russia and China stack the deck against the West. If we want to defeat the world from shitty governments we have to start with our own.

People aren't going to miss our on wildfire news is they don't see it on Facebook. SMH

Exqueese me? I thought he was great in bg3.

The racist is Putin sending all of Russia's ethnic minorities to slaughter in Ukraine.

They're not getting it wrong. It's illegal to SELL the guns if he's indicted. Reread those sources to see the distinction for yourself.

Do you think any indie developer has the means to achieve a lower cost to distribution and promotion if they try to sell and support the game themselves?

Valve solves many problems for developers and these problems aren't imaginary and free to resolve.

Not saying 30% is justified for all games, but if you want a quality title it's going to cost more than just development. Since the Unity debacle we've seen some developers even say openly that costs of promotion and support dwarf costs of development.

Those prices were going to go up anyway. They've been doing so for years before and after that credit.

I stopped reading after "Sunday's".
