Christ, what the fuck is wrong with the world? Didn’t we solve this in WWII? Didn’t the world kinda collectively discover that being a fascist, Nazi dickbag isn’t the way to go? What happened?

Nobody seemed to complain about buying studios when Sony was doing it years ago. Or EA.

It’s hard to find talented studios to make AAA games, especially on short notice. Far easier and faster to just buy an existing company and its talent rather than try to lure said talent away to join you normally. Sony did just that many years ago, and look at the awesome games they come out with! Why _wouldn’t Microsoft do the same thing to try and compete?

I’m not saying it’s a good thing for gamers, but it makes sense from a business perspective.

Does this mean rent will get easier to pay, or am I still boned?

“They” didn’t do that. Texas Governor Greg Abott put that into effect, defying the federal government in doing so. It was only afterwards that the courts agreed that it was okay. Without Governor Hot Wheels, it’d have never happened.

Yeah, I recently got one of those Gamesir controllers with the hall effect sticks. I love it, but hate that I’m restricted to using a cable.

Hey, some people learn from their mistakes. Hell, my first PC build (23 years ago…) was DOA because I had inadvertently bent a pin on the CPU, and it got smashed when I tightened down the cooler. That was an expensive mistake, but one I certainly learned from.

And people repairing their own stuff is always a good idea. People learning how to maintain their electronics is never a bad thing! Everyone should pick up a soldering iron at some point. :)

Overworked and underpaid. It’s like every single business in the world suddenly decided that they could simply employ fewer people, pay them less, and charge more for their products. I can only hope that it comes to bite them all in their collective asses sooner rather than later.

And, as far as I’ve always known, those apps are awful. I haven’t checked in awhile though.

So, rather than having some revenue coming in from YouTube, they’d rather force everyone to use their own website? Do they not understand that not everyone watches YouTube on a computer? Some exclusively use the YouTube app on their phones, TVs, or game consoles.

I dunno. It’s not as if it costs them anything to host the videos on YouTube. Seems odd to completely cut off a revenue source like that.

Or folks like myself that refuse to get a TPM just to run a worse OS. I’m fine with Windows 10.

16/20. I would imagine I err’d on the side of assuming art was AI made rather than human made. AI generated photos are too ‘smooth’ looking.

Stick a windmill up there, that aughta do it!

Well, waste energy is expelled as heat so… I bet they heat up. Kinda like how if you take a stimulant that raises your heart rate but you aren’t doing anything at the same time, you tend to feel warmer.

I assume that’s how it works, anyways.

Both of those ingredients are cheap, and Xantham Gum in particular is used in gluten free baking recipes a lot.

They did!

Not in Texas, at least. Our government here is in the habit of actively making everything worse, not better.

I could’ve sworn Gris was already on GamePass at one point.

Donde esta la biblioteca?

I bought a steam link forever ago and ran an Ethernet cable from my router to it. Works like a charm.
