Maybe it's just a case of hindsight being 20/20, but it in some ways really feels like they were borderline asking to get sued.

Humors a pretty common response to awful situations. It's a useful coping tool as the world continues to go to shit around us.

I try to contribute as much info as I can to Open Street Map on my walks.

I've been loving it. Weirdly scratches the same itch Pokémon Go did for a while, plus it's something actually useful.

StreetComplete is the one I use, although there's a handful. It's on both the play store and Fdroid

Holy shit, I had no clue they were making a new Tribes. It's been so long.

I've been a bit burnt out lately, but fully agree with Squad. My most played steam game by a fair bit. Love the ICO so much.

Valve is what happens when someone who's not just outright fucking evil invents a money printing machine

I said not outright evil, not good.

Since I can almost guarantee you major publishers would not publish on steam without some sort of DRM, yeah Im fine with them having an easily crackable form of DRM. Especially since they're not exactly jumping to prevent people from doing it.

I vowed to never give them a dime after the $100 beta test that was Destiny 1 Year 1

There's actually a fairly large sweet spot where the sub makes a lot of sense (ignoring the fact that subscriptions inherently suck, of course). If you print infrequently enough that your cartridges are likely to dry out, it's generally quite a bit cheaper.

Of course the correct answer for most people is to just buy a laser printer and go to CVS or something the couple timed you need photo quality prints. Don't have to worry about toner drying out

Not to mention I'd wager a fairly large portion of city skylines 2 players are playing through game pass and wouldn't be counted here anyway

“When the astronauts went to the moon, there was nothing there. They certainly weren't bored."

Yeah I think that might be because they were on the moon and not pressing WASD to walk around a fake moon

I mean, yeah. They absolutely don't want to be spending bandwidth on those of us who use adblockers. What I don't think a lot of people realize is that Google is perfectly happy with the people who are essentially never served an ad not using the service anymore. Saves them money.

Clearly doing so is a waste of energy.

Yeah Bethesda doesn't get the same amount of leeway that a small dev that was clearly way in over their heads gets

Headline really feels like it's trying to imply unity is currently making a profit. They haven't been out of the red in a while. Businesses tend to die when they're bleeding money and there's no VC.

Unfortunately there's a whole slew of people who are going buy it no matter what. See the same shit with sports games. Doesn't matter how much of a lazy, shitty, watered down mess it is, people are going to buy it.

The game servers themselves sometimes shit the bed, but overall it's a good experience. Matchmaking takes 30-90 seconds usually, although it's pretty much only attrition.

IIRC the only reason it's called CS2 is because it's on the Source 2 engine

Makes sense they wouldn't, im sure development would've taken forever

Can't forget that people who don't experience big bugs are far less likely to tall about it than people that do

So you never had a bad experience, just were actively causing bad experiences for others?

(Rumor) EVGA to withdraw from the Motherboard market ? (www.techpowerup.com)

In what could be the beginning of the end for EVGA after its spectacular withdrawal from the graphics card market that it held leadership position in; the company is reportedly winding down its desktop motherboard business, too. Korean overclocker Safedisc, writing on Coolenjoy tech forums, stated t...

It's pretty clear that EVGA was not going to be able to make any profit at all while keeping their customer service as excellent as it is. Nvidia just started squeezing board partners too much.
