- Comment on Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of September 15th 1 day ago:
Destroying filthy xenos in Space Marine II with my battle-brother in online campaign co-op.
What a treat. Also Pokémon Platinum.
- Comment on Gacha games are out of control. Gambling shouldn't be so widespread 1 day ago:
I mean, look how fast the ENTIRE industry shifted to battle passes (and still gacha) and away from “loot boxes” the very moment the first country said they’d consider regulation.
- Comment on OpenStreetMap: The map that saves lives | CNBC International (5:14) 3 weeks ago:
Thanks for the links. I’ve been mapping in OSM for a year ish now off and on. Nice to find it in the lemmyverse
- Comment on Valve lifts NDA on Deadlock, streaming and talking about the game is now allowed. 3 weeks ago:
There may be more people watching Deadlock than there are watching and playing Concord today based on available data and reasonable extrapolation.
- Comment on Disney creates best argument for piracy in a century. 4 weeks ago:
That was the argument before this case, and in the virtually certain case the judge denies Disney’s motion, there is no additional argument besides “Disney is even more petty and scummy than we all thought.”
- Comment on Disney creates best argument for piracy in a century. 4 weeks ago:
This isn’t so much an argument for piracy as it is an argument to not patronize Disney. Especially considering that Disney’s motion for arbitration is so far beyond baseless that it’s baffling they’d even attempt it.
AKA: No, Disney will not be able to force you to arbitrate a dispute just because you once (or still do) subscribed to Disney+. Their motion will be denied, and pirating their content will not - in any way - legally protect you.
- Comment on The Verge Under Fire For Publishing Info About ‘Deadlock,’ Valve’s Secret Shooter 4 weeks ago:
Valve isn’t really angry as far as I can tell, or have heard. They’re about as angry as any other person which goes and posts this stuff online: revoking access. If Valve wanted to expand their testing userbase without people leaking it online, they would have sought NDAs and other legally-binding agreements with testers and - by extension - journalists who can test the game.
- Comment on AI ‘Friend’ Company Spent $1.8 Million and Most of Its Funds on Domain Name 1 month ago:
The article is even more wack than the price for the domain. They want to launch a $99 necklace that listens to everything you say while it “forms its own thoughts” about it. Then instead of talking to you, it just texts you when IT “wants” (read: on a timer or based on a system prompt)
The monetization is a one-time $99, no subscription. That’s … suspicious from a privacy perspective.
- Comment on [Request] Retro Recommendations 1 month ago:
Ace Combat (PS2): Primarily Ace Combat 4, I’d say as it’s shorter but still great. If you like the gameplay then you’ll need to play 5 and Zero.
- Comment on Can someone tell me if this game cartridge is authentic? 1 month ago:
Definitely fake. Batch identifier plus a lot of things being a bit off. www.gameverifying.com/wiki/…/nds
