With the new restrictions that mods can't retroactively become paid mods, nor can they be dependent on others sounds fine on paper.

But consider what having this kind of system in place will do for future games and mods. I believe this will discourage collaboration and ultimately will cause a decline in quality. If paid mods can't build off of others, then there would be less incentive or option to build integration of mods. Anyone remember mods like cobl, cm partners, and fcom for Oblivion? Those would be impossible with paid mods. And since most modders would (rightfully so) like to maximize their income, I reckon many would exclusively make their portfolio be paid mods, even with restrictions on what they can build.

Patent trolling.

We didn't fight Nazi Germany because they were racist. We fought them because they attacked us (through their ally, Japan). The sad truth is there were a lot of Americans who were ok with Nazi ideology.

I suspect this holds true to any base x numbering where you take the highest valued digit and multiply it by any number. Try it with base 2 (1), 4 (3), 16 (F) or whatever.

I'm still waiting for Kingdom Hearts... How long has it been now?

I would imagine it would be like Arm pumping.

"This place has got everything!"

https://www.blu-ray.com/deals/ is a great place to view deals on movies and shows. Most of them are sold on Amazon though. https://grindhousevideo.com/ is another store I've bought from. They seem to have a decent selection of more obscure titles.

I would imagine there are a lot of challenges around converting high rise commercial buildings into housing. Many buildings only have a handful of toilets per floor, maybe a few sinks, and no showers. I'm also sure there are no gas lines in many of them (electric heating and cooking might suffice). But for sure, water delivery will be one of the biggest challenges.

Then there are even lame laws regarding parking requirements for a building with so many residents.

With the way generative AI is progressing, I wouldn't say it's impossible.
