I keep wanting to think I’m an RPG kind of gamer, but in reality, all my favorites were from the SNES.

Nintendo patents video game inventory system.

Not the onion.

(Not a patent lawyer, and I’m sure it’s more complicated than that, but come on)

You can have any brew you want … as long as it’s a Romulan ale.

The product is supposedly 72" long. It looks like if he stretched his legs out straight, his feet would match up with the bottom of the mat pretty evenly, but the top would still barely come to his shoulders.

Either that dude’s 7 feet tall, or the product measurements are a lie. I thought it was a common tactic among companies to show their “big” products being used by particularly short people to make them look larger than they are. Marketing fail.

Sounds like just the publishing side was affected. Lots of other independent developers are kind of in limbo in the short term, which does suck.

Hopefully they can get out of any contracts and go to a publisher not associated with that family.

They do point out that they will be monitoring how it’s used, and could adjust things later.

Sounds like corporate-speak for “if people abuse this, we’ll lock it down harder.”

Even if people are using it to share with actual family around the country, they may get caught up in future updates that remove that feature. Also note that any publisher can opt out of the sharing. If EA or Ubi or some other big company doesn’t like the lack of limits, they may be able to force Valve’s hand in changing the policy.

The idea is wonderful, but there are a ton sof ways this could end up worse than the old system.

The Peter Principle in action.

The thing is, there will come a day when only bots will be able to get these right. The only way into a site will be to answer incorrectly, to prove you’re human.

Gameboy Advance had single-pak link (buy one copy, play with up to 4 linked devices) 20 years ago.

Greed has defeated the technology, though.

How dare my meddling not work out, you’re all fired!

But it looks like so much fun

Yeah, it’s not that the fraudsters got past the red tape, there just wasn’t any to begin with.

It was all honor system, and with billions of dollars at stake, honor is the first thing to go.

I’ve been binging for a couple weeks now. Two episodes left. This made my day.

idk, the Combs/Combs ticket is promising to give Combs a cabinet position and Combs at chief justice. Seems pretty strong.

I’ve always liked Open Camera. Of course YMMV depending on your device.

edit: it’s also on F-Droid if that’s your preferred store.

Trump represents modern conservatism, but he himself? I’m not sure he actually stands for a whole lot beyond his own orange bubble.

He’s mostly a blank slate (philosophically and intellectually) that the people around him can use to get their agendas enacted. He surrounds himself with sycophants and bootlickers, so as long as they promise him wealth and power, he is content to parrot the talking points he’s given.

Steven Miller, Steve Bannon, Alex Jones, and all the others…those are the real evil motherfuckers. When Trump is out of the picture, they’ll find some other half-wit to puppet. The fight won’t end when one figurehead fades in to history.

idk, just one dude’s thoughts.

(Just to be clear, none of that absolves him of the real damage he’s done. Malicious indifference is still malicious.)

Square 🤝 Nintendo
Charging 2-3x too much for games you already bought.

Even the android is…fully functional.

Sub Commander? Is Starfleet in charge of operating submarines on water planets?
