There was a time where the fact that launch meant a high player count, big community energy, and lack of hyper-optimized strategies minmaxxing the fun out of a game was sufficient reason to get it at launch.
But given how often modern launches are bungled, even that is not always true
If the error is hidden well, yes. Close-reading a text and cross referencing everything it says takes MUCH longer than writing a piece you know is accurate to begin with
The next update will fix everything, just need this one hotfix and everything will be solved, just wait.
Just one more update, okay? Just one more. One update. Just one.
I’m pretty sure it was invented as a series of fairytales to get kids (and slaves) to shut up and obey their masters, with the threat that asking too many questions would get them tortured by a spooky ghost.
And then it got WAY out of hand
The problem is that’s literally just money laundering?
They are using a shell corporation and bullshit liscencing fee to cover over the fact that this transaction is and should be illegal.
Like, the idea here is that the church is not allowed to donate to a political figure, so they’ve set up a shell corp in the middle. The church pays $60 to the shell corp, who sends back 30 cents worth of paper, and then passes on 59.70 to Trump as a “licencing fee”, which is obviously just going to be spent on his campaign.
He’s like the third guy to do this in a year, big money doesn’t want you to know about it
We’ve removed critical functionality from the operating system because our boss didn’t want more than 6 buttons on screen at any time. Sorry the system is 100x more difficult to use!
Object oriented programming encourages a number of anti-patterns
Socialist and communist economies actually tend to grow faster and be more prosperous than Capitalist ones… Until the US kills the government and blockades the ports.
My dude, everything is politics. Especially things like “I want a free internet” or “I don’t want to be drowning in ads” which is a huge part of the appeal of Lemmy are both DEEPLY political stances.
Exactly. It’s not “Leftist”, it’s just NOT fully of Nazis, and that’s how far our standards have slipped.
Worse than that, Reddit banned all the NSFW subs from /all but DIDN’T ban the NSFL sub. So now instead of and unfiltered /all, with a mix of all the best everything, it’s now a curated collection of no porn and the occasional gore.
If they just SAID the scent, then the marketing teams would have nothing to do!
No, you can’t say “Vertiver and Ylang-Ylang” you have to say “Ocean Breeze”, you can’t say “Cedar, Sage, and Bergamot”, you need to say “WOODSMAN MASCULINE TESTOSTERONE”
This bugs me. All these fucking fishers are like “My family has been fishing for thousands of years, how dare you take away my way of life”.
It’s like, oh? Really? Your parents in their medieval ship were doing industrial-scale trawling?
Ditto with farmers. I simply do not believe you when you say that highly mechanized mass agriculture with heavy overuse of modern fertilizers is something that’s been in your family for tens of generations. Fuck outta here.
Even big singleplayer games can be fun. I liked being involved in the early days of BG3’s release, for example. But then again, no mans sky and cyberpunk sucked
