Businesses of a different industry can use the same name. There is nothing keeping you from using the website for blogging. The computer store might be problematic if it could be construed you are trying to profit from EA’s established trademark. Also, why would you want a .org for a storefront? I’d say get a different domain for your computer store.

Same thing happened to me when I tried to update my phone number and address at the same time.

Damn, you’ve perfectly described my ex-wife.

I believe the board is mostly installed by Musk so it would likely take quite a bit.

Give the crested geckos their independence! (My only knowledge of New Caledonia is gecko-based).

“It doesn’t even make sense to me why someone would want to eat that,” Balsick said. “For us as humans to think that we can make a product better than God can is interesting.”

Are nuggets made with lab-grown chicken a more questionable choice than, say, milk from a cow that’s been fed ground-up chicken waste, a common practice which experts say may be contributing to the spread of bird flu?

The luck bit really clashes with the survivorship bias.

You’re right that default credentials should have gone away a decade ago. From my experience with security cameras, default credentials were the norm ~5 years ago and now most prompt you to create a unique password. That industry typically lags slightly in infosec best practices. I would expect routers to require a higher level of security.

The time that he complained he wasn’t making enough money was after he took a $267,000 loan for a luxury RV so this comes across as him wanting a lavish lifestyle instead of actually struggling.

Please tell me everyone has figured out that all large companies are pure fucking evil

Fixed that for you

Unfortunately they welcome the arrival of their murderous God because they think he will destroy all the icky people.

Any protections to consumers are a win. I think overall this will be a positive for gamers.

IMHO this ruling is shortsighted and pushes for a future with increased monitisation that isn’t in the box value of the game and targets to hurt the Devs that make consumer friendly games while giving games with loot boxes and microtransactions an advantage in the market when talking in terms of overall sales for the devs.

Your last paragraph could hold some truth if publishers think this will affect profits. I don’t know if this would significantly impact profits since we’re talking about a new secondary market that did not exist in the digital space before. There’s probably some historical data for how physical used game sales affect new game sales but it might be hard to quantify since that market has existed pretty much from the beginning.

I would anticipate another across the board price increase for games as a result, but I see this more as an excuse for greed on the publishers’ parts rather than a cost to offset any actual lost revenue.

I agree that microtransactions and loot boxes in gaming need regulation as well. Hopefully this is a step towards that.

That reminds me of this study I read that anyone will believe anything that looks like a screenshot of a reputable news article.

You could make so much money playing Russian roulette!

Why aren't streaming media contracts negotiated like 'you will provide us the 4K copies of the entire series; we will stream it forever and you will get X% of the profit..margin...etc in perpetuity'

rather than this stupid fucking snip snap game where, instead of, as a user being able to buy into a company that’s building a massive, marvelous, library-of-alexandria-core archive of every good show ever made, you’re paying into some shitty ephemeral bullshit made by stupid greedy dickheads who have no fucking sense

Because the goal of capitalism is to chase infinite profits and raze the earth in the process. Providing you with convenience or value or helping any human is not a part of this process.

Sounds like tractors need to be ITAR controlled.

He spent a bunch of dough on that hair. I believe he is likely aware of his appearance. He is pale and overweight because he spends a bunch of time playing video games, being a nazi in his failing social media site, and (based on this picture) eating french fries.

Maybe at some point his vanity will compel him to get liposuction or just go full orange man with spray tan and wear baggy suits with ties that are too long. I don’t see him being like Bezos or Zuck and getting into shape.

Actually, it was Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.

The only thing I would add to this is carefully use a hair dryer to loosen the adhesive on the sticker first. Should leave less mess for the goo gone to deal with.

Even the name Penguin is a hybrid of polar and penguin.

Such a scum bag move by Sony that I have to buy another DS5 to play this with my daughter on PS5 when I have several perfectly good DS4s whose only purpose at this point is to occupy a landfill it seems.
