I’m ready to sleep half the time at 5mg. Holy shit.
- Comment on How a Manosphere Star Accused of Rape and Trafficking Was Freed 1 day ago:
Caught*, not just accused. Because he did it. They found trafficked women in his home. There’s no “alleged” bullshit to hide behind
- Comment on I just learned 37% of Americans fear vaccinating their dog will cause the dog to develop autism. 😐 1 day ago:
Purposely misreading someone else’s comment is not the way to proclaim you’re among the educated…

The AI investment craze wasn’t going on the whole time even LLMs have been around. There will be people calling out doomsday financial scenarios every day for years that never happen.
Some have been proclaiming daily we’re overdue for another recession ever since we hit the bottom of the 2008 one. Hasn’t happened yet, 17 years later.

It’s pretty rad.

TF2 completely abandoned their whole design philosophy to cater to the gambling crowd…
They made multiple design documentary videos on their whole “recognizable unique sillouette” class design. Then they created loot boxes…

A long time? It’s only been in full swing for like ~2 years now. That is not a long time for financial bubbles.

You have to log into steam to be able to launch any game you own on steam. As opposed to launching the game standalone.
This is the gateway you have to cross to access what you paid for.
That’s the management of digital rights, right there. It’s not complicated.
- Comment on Anon is a fan of GabeN 4 days ago:
At a certain point, making some functionality only available to part of your audience is more costly than just allowing it for everyone. Also the PR would have been horrible.
Now, being sued into doing it at all somehow made everyone in this thread fawn over them…

And I have an anecdote that counters your anecdote. I’ve been refused a refund. It was at their discretion. Game crashing withing 10 minutes of playing every time isn’t always enough to get them to deign to give you your money back…
So, yes, it IS true. Them occasionally making a PR friendly move and going against their own policy doesn’t change that

This is not at all how this meme works.

When they text you “I’m on my way”
- Comment on Your Data Might Determine How Much You Pay for Eggs 1 week ago:
Is… “Physical location of the store your currently standing in” considered personal data? Because that’s what is determining the price difference. Real estate prices are not the same in these two places. That changes the costs the store is offsetting.
There’s no way this author didn’t know that was what caused the difference in prices in this example.
What a terrible Way to try to back up your point.
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 1 week ago:
Why is reading so hard for so many on this platform?
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 1 week ago:
They did change the one scene where that could have even conceivably applied. It wasn’t actually that to begin with, either.

I mean, he released the communication he’s received. It’s not super clear. And the things he thinks it was isn’t even in the current version of the game
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 1 week ago:
Except people give them passes for shit that they don’t extend to other companies. The blind loyalty is stupid
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 1 week ago:
Unless it unexpectedly sells gangbusters, the dev says they’re likely to shut down as not having the massive steam audience to sell to won’t net them enough to continue. And people are stupidly loyal to valve for some reason.

US Steel is now a Japanese company

They seem to have a two stage reactor, where supposedly, the He3 is generated with a ~small energy surplus and then Fred into the bigger reactor.

Helion, probably.
- Comment on Why do some Americans "feel ashamed" for being American even when it's not their fault? 1 week ago:
How is it a false equivalency? It’s the same exact people astroturfing the movements in those places too. It’s literally the same phenomenon
- Comment on Epic boss Tim Sweeney thinks stores like Steam should stop labelling games as being made with AI: 'It makes no sense,' he says, because 'AI will be involved in nearly all future production 2 weeks ago:
The people lazy enough to have ai generate their code aren’t going to do that.

Gears of War was huge.
Unreal Tournament was pretty big.
Unreal engine is STILL used by half the video game industry.
