Can’t afford 3 meals a day? Call it intermittent fasting. Can’t live off what you earn? Poly employment. What other awful reality can we rebrand?

My icq# was 4706179 and I doubt I’ll ever forget it.

Helium 3 is what we’re planning to use in fusion, that’s the point.

Try liking sonic the hedgehog games. The characters are all children but the fandom does not care.

MS surprise launched hifi rush with zero marketing, put it on gamepass day 1 then complains it didn’t meets ales expectations and shuts down the studio that made it. Now, 48 hours later, they are saying they need more games like that.

It may not be directly referenced in the article but cloud gaming was absolutely a part of what led to the closure of tango gameworks.

I’d argue that xcloud and gamepass are equally disruptive to the industry. In either case you don’t own the games and they are tied to a subscription. Whether the game is running locally or in remote hardware doesn’t change how it impacts development and sales of games.

Cloud based gaming is not going to replace owning hardware unless they can ensure sub 20ms response time for every and I don’t belive that target is feasible but either case is bad for gaming as a whole. Games with 100 million dollar budgets are never going to see a positive ROI on services like gamepass and are reliant on gamers being willing to pay full price at launch.

My point is that Gamepass and similar services will kill AAA games if they become the primary way people access games and that is something that is best avoided. Games need a 6-12 month buffer to hit sales targets before they are considered for subscription services, otherwise the entire business model will fall flat on its face and take gaming with it.

After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year (www.billboard.com)

When Bloomberg reported that Spotify would be upping the cost of its premium subscription from $9.99 to $10.99, and including 15 hours of audiobooks per month in the U.S., the change sounded like a win for songwriters and publishers. Higher subscription prices typically equate to a bump in U.S. mechanical royalties — but not...

YouTube music has something like this. You choose a few artists you like then tune the randomness of what it plays. I have discovered more new artists Ina few months of using it than I have in the decade before that.

I usually don’t care much for streamers but Wirtual is amazing. He’s a talented player in his own right but also does a great job explaining the nuts and bolts of the game. I’m still a mediocre trackmania player (odd since I am usually very good at racing games) but his videos have taught me a lot.

Would it be possible to come up with an FPGA solution for things like that?

Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone (www.theverge.com)

Microsoft is starting to enable ads inside the Start menu on Windows 11 for all users. After testing these briefly with Windows Insiders earlier this month, Microsoft has started to distribute update KB5036980 to Windows 11 users this week, which includes “recommendations” for apps from the Microsoft Store in the Start menu....

I’m still ok with windows 10 and by the time it’s no longer supported, proton should be mature enough for me to make the jump with no regrets.

To be fair, it hurts when they nip you.

Replayed it last year and it was as good as I remembered. Windwaker is my personal favourite but LTTP is so close it might as well be a tie.

Hangon, shinobi and rampage were what I played the most.

When I was in school, my school board had a contract with Apple so almost every computer I used from kindergarten until damn near the end of high school was an apple II or some flavour of Mac. Needless to say, this error is a core memory for me.

Hey, Israel has every right to defend themselves from starving children lined up for food. You must be one of those antisemitic people I’ve been hearing about.

The screenshot is showing the ratio on a single torrent, not a tracker. The only time you’ll see that is usually if you are the person that submitted the torrent.

I thought $40 Canadian for phantom liberty was a lot but, after playing it, it was worth the price. Erdtree could very well give a similar experience but I’m going to wait for some reviews before I consider getting it.

Does hosting the Olympics, the World Cup or other major sports events really pay off? (phys.org)

After a long battle, Paris’s beloved bouquinistes will be staying put this summer. The decision, announced on 13 February by the French government, came after considerable public backlash to the police prefecture’s original plan to move part of the iconic Seine booksellers elsewhere for the inauguration of the Olympics Games...

I’m on a 90s dos/windows gaming group on Facebook and people there love showing off their old builds full of era appropriate games. And for those with the passion but lacking the hardware, there exodos.

When I’m on a VPN connected through the US, absolutely. When I’m not on a VPN, also yes, but not nearly as bad.

Still on archive.org so I’m not worried but I still hate to see stuff like this happen because of the precedent that it sets.

A tool like that would almost definitely require api access to function. If that was still possible, most of us wouldn’t be here having this conversation.

I had to はし (hashi) over the はし because I forgot my はし at home.

Same word phonetically, three meanings. With Kanji it’s easy.

The Japanese alphabets are phonetic so all homophones have the same spelling. In your example all the words are spelled differently.

In many other languages homophones are often spelled differently. Hiragana and katakana phonetic alphabets so homophones all have the same spelling.

Dodi and fitgirl both use scene releases as their base. Even says so with their releases. I’d assume they likely have top site access or they have a connection to someone who does. Same is true for the repackers on the private sites I use.

Sabin10 ,

P2P releases can come from anywhere. If you are worried about viruses and malware, it’s probably best to avoid them even though the danger is still very low.

Scene releases are almost always purchased legitimately by the group for cracking. The most popular repackers usually use scene releases as their source.

I remeber enjoying the Naruto gekitou ninja taisen games on gamecube. Everything since then has been in the ultimate ninja storm arena fighter format and is garbage.

Every now and then, Florida does something I agree with. It’s always a surprise. Maybe also ban parents from making social media channels that exploit their children.

The average human takes 20000 breaths per day. For comparison, the average American take 4700 steps a day so steps actually win since the break even point is around 4000 steps.

Same here. I’ll take steps and in 10 years I’ll be set up to make more than the breathers even if I become a paraplegic.

Qbittorrent let’s you set a torrent to download in sequential order and download first and last pieces first. This let’s me play files as they are downloading.

We don’t segregate our two societies here.

Even understanding all this, a 2 hour movie in a 2.5gb hevc file is still a very tempting thing. Every movie I could ever want, at acceptable quality, all in under 8tb of space is really amazing.

I like my job and have great coworkers. I could keep doing what I’m doing for another 20 years no problem. Wouldn’t quite be retirement age yet, nor would I have enough to retire but at least I tried.

The electricity bill shouldn’t be that bad. Seeding torrents doesn’t put a lot of load on the system. Depending on your hardware it could be pretty low power consumption. On the high end it might hit 4kwh a day.

Sabin10 ,

I’ve never paid for a private tracker but users can donate if they want. Like I said, I have a firm belief that piracy should be free. Never paid for it, never will. A good tracker with top site bots and well seeded torrents is good enough for me. Releases are on there within minutes, download speeds that max out my connection are good enough for me.

My experience with Linux is very limited other than my steam deck. For cracked games, if there is no Linux version available, I usually install them on my windows pc first, copy the games folder to the deck then add it to the library as a non steam game. After that you just specify the proton version in the games steam properties and it runs.

Ideally you would want native Linux versions. Those are few and far between but they do get released from time to time.
