I’m not in one of them, so I do know. I’m just sceptical GOG would do that with such complications. And I’m supporting the way of correcting it with piracy or more affordable prices rather than region locking that would lead to it’s own shenanigans.

Feel free to do it. I think that most of people already saw it here. But if I find something like that, it’d be better to share a compilation of several cases at once.

I’d look into how I can report that, and also in probable alternatives, thanks.

Yep. I’m on the edge about uploading a screenshot, but it would be safe to say it happened in the first hour of going into Intermediate English course and saying I’m 100% proficient in it. It occured to me in the third three tasks I believe. In this exact task it asked me to pronounce what the boy says and I cropped out my notifications bar and the lower part of the screen. It was in the app, so I couldn’t have done any edits on the site, only after that.

Steam services that by injecting more DRM, region-locking games (and accounts) to a set of countries like consoles do, and that is incompatible with GOG’s idea. They can let devs decide on pricing without implementing any rudimentary locks, but then it would be inconvinient for wealthy countries’ gamers to ever purchase a game in their own region unless they intent to support dev/platform. It greatly complicates their side of things and would be a very divisive decision for a smaller storefront that is built around their wholesome image.

- Comment on CrankBoy - the original Game Boy game emulator for the Playdate console (my article) 1 week ago:
I shared your confusion.
Now I’m curious if one can pull that off with simple games if features like high refresh rate and wireless thrown off. Also, price. With that ‘Memory LCD’ of theirs, it costs $100 per unit as per their Twitter.
14 days standby clock, 8 hours active
That’s what PD team claims for 740 mAh battery, it is what cheap mp3 players now have\consume. If there is a space to optimize it further, we’d see even better numbers, but I’m not confident this crank or little solar panel on the surface (whole back panel?) could make it autonomous. Yet, the idea of a handheld that LOVES sunlight is tempting. And, also, the idea of games that are built around slow and infrequent refresh like those minigames on e-books.

Cloud\fileshare server could make everything transparent and logged if that’s a concern. That could also make basic law books accessible to everyone. But I’m pretty sure none GAF about inmates.

Lighting them all evenly at once is another engineering task. I propose an overheated pan or other metal surface because everything with open fire gonna suck big time.
- Comment on If I wanted to bury a hard drive for archival purposes (e.g. Country becoming Dictatorship), how to keep the contents from being damaged and where is the safest place to bury it? 4 weeks ago:
I find it more reliable as it has less mechanical parts, but I am curious if someone did a scientifical aproximation of how long it would last.

Drop a thumb stick (mechanical failure) into a plastic zip-lock in a vacuum (oxygen) then into a metal thermos mug with water (pressure and radiation) then dig it really deep (accidential discovery and weather). By the time it deteriorates you’d have problems finding USB interfaces to plug it in. The location itself is largely irrelevant, but I’d recommend some place far from human-occupied places.
The authoritarian state problem isn’t solveable, but you can defend it by obscurity, like not leaving a trace of thinking about this info cache, or leaving too many of these caches to reliably dig up all of them.

They claim staff were removed from company communications such as Slack and email before human resources had even made contact to inform them whether they’d been let go.
The creative energy they put into inventing new reasons for gamedevs to hate their job could be better put in, like, games?

- Comment on Public transit in Chengdu, China versus Toronto, Canada 1 month ago:
I might be wrong but a lot of it’s wikipedia page looks like this city was completely reconstructed from the ground up in said period of time that makes it too exceptional for this comparison and not a usual occurence even in China. It became a major hub of China-EU trade upping it’s importance and neccesitating a boost in infrastructural efficiency while it’s population effectively doubled. A great move all around tho.
