I salute this project and it's proof of how much it's needed: it hit it's planned yearly goal of subscribers in a month or so, and I hope at some point the ball gets rolling over here for something similar.

In other words, Put up or shut up.
Apple scoring somewhere around a B average is kinda shocking. Valve getting an A+ is actually not surprising to me at all somehow. And as someone who owns a second-hand MSI laptop? Their score does not surprise me in the slightest. (It's a good laptop, don't get me wrong, but the fact that several things just 'don't work' in linux is still annoying as hell.)
Someone else made a realization: this isn't a list of countries: This is a list of top level domains. I'm half in agreement someone shoved the top level domains into an LLM along with what numbers they wanted, and it spat out this thing...
Not quite what I meant. I mean where "we can no longer sell the VHS version unless we remake it without the songs." But you know, that's also bad. ANd dear gods this has depressed me in ways I never thought I'd know.
If you own it on plastic discs, your memory matches the reality.
You obviously didn't buy the plastic shiny disc for skyrim. Which, has an installer. For Steam.
Not even buying physical media can save you from the games licensing plague.
A slight misunderstanding in what I meant: Has a movie had to remove a song to continue selling after release? If not, why? Different negotiations? different licensing? Or just the understanding that removing something from a finished artistic product is absolutely stupid?
Does this same problem happen to movies? Because gods damn the inability to sell a movie a few years down the road because it had a music clip that was licensed in it, seems so utterly stupid that it hurts.
Anyone following a republican bill “for the children” should be extremely suspicious.Anyone following a republican bill “for the children” should be extremely suspicious.
There's one word too many in this. ANy time you have a bill "for the children", you should take it with several grains of salt. And look to see who is most affected by the bill.
"pretending that one can apply terms, and then arguing about which terms should be applied, is a waste of everyone’s time, which could be better spent gaming."
Oh please, a good chunk of people in this hobby are in it specifically to argue how to apply various terms to things.
They critically failed their initial diplomacy check (among other things) with how this had to be leaked before the general community could make informed comment, and not listening to their partners in this before things got bad. They may not have critically failed their backpedal, but they sure didn't make a successful diplomacy roll there either. and in the process, I think they may have lost more community trust then they realize... and I think the higher ups in the company don't realize just how fragile that trust was, and how near impossible rebuilding it will be now.
Every time I hear about this federation thing, and the whole supply chain of issues it seemingly can cause?
It makes me glad my platform of choice branched off, forked its code completely, and got rid of all the federation features up front.
The company cannot control what runs on my machine. nor should they. They can, however, scrutinize the inputs to the server. If they are trusting user machines to give valid inputs... well, I have so many reasons that's a bad idea that it's funny.
and I'll say it again:
If you want to run effective anti-cheat for multiplayer, that doesn't piss off the customer?
run it on the server.
Why?
Because, frankly, games have no business in the modern era running at any greater privilege then a non-admin user. (I dare say, it's getting to the point where I think a specifically sandboxed account isn't a bad idea...)
As someone across the bridge in Duluth...

Huh
On the one hand, questionable is questionable. On the other, usually they at least try to give plausible deniability of playing favorites.

I'm honestly surprised

It gets worse

what makes me sad? This is far too accurate a reasoning.
Hmmm

I have to ask...

Wait
... how the hell do both of them have the trademark to the same thing?
If they really believed that defention of consent...
They'd apply it to all work. But that won't happen. Because that'd make all of us slaves.
Hey Now
That's an insult to the kender: The kender have a lot lower learning curve to not pissing off everyone around them.

A plus and a minus

Every time...

as a thought
The company cannot control what runs on my machine. nor should they. They can, however, scrutinize the inputs to the server. If they are trusting user machines to give valid inputs... well, I have so many reasons that's a bad idea that it's funny.

Huh.
Of all the comments I've made, never thought that would be the one that got noticed. xD
