I’ve only pirated old stuff, games from my youth that are collectible items now for silly money or a complete crapshoot on whether 30 year old tech has stood the test of time.
If I had the time to play them I would definitely see my conscience clear on pirating new stuff from them now.
As far as I understand patent law, if nobody has actually patented something someone can just say “mine lol” and scoop up royalties and block shit for spite.
That sounds to me like “ain’t gonna happen mate but I don’t want to upset you”.
Which I’m kinda happy about. All the updates to stardew have been free and I want more. More. MORE.
2020 still feels like the date from a sci-fi film.
I think you’ll change your mind about cloud streaming soon. The concept of not owning anything and just renting access doesn’t sit right with me, but it’s just the way things are going.
It’s pretty impressive right now under the right conditions and in about 10 years when it improves to the point of being seamless I think we’ll all happily accept it.
Repetitive and grindy
It’s working out good for me personally. Between that trend and having gamepass. I don’t have much time to game any more, so can barely get past a tutorial before real life steps in. By that point I feel like I get it though so it’s OK.
In the factory i used to work at it was riddled with older people who just wouldn’t quit and couldn’t get fired. Was like working in a nursing home.
Trump said it was illegal to boycott tesla.
I’m sure he was just talking out his arse but still.
I don’t mean to sound all condescending or something, but it’s really jarring to me that shit like this and Internet access are overlapping.
I want to see pokemon red/blue/yellow absolutely fully maximum modernised. I want to go through the world in VR. I want to throw the poke balls into battle for real stashed on my belt. I want to be able to yell commands to a living, breathing pokemon dancing around in the arena.
Yeah I feel a little bad for them. Here in the UK we had mad protests about the Iraq war and it didn’t do shit. Even if they cared, which I’m absolutely clueless about, they had no chance.
Can’t wait to have my thoughts hacked. “Hey guys! I’ve just decided super-techno-fascism is a fantastic system and I’m so glad to be living under it. Cyber-Leader is great!”
Yup. Somewhere out there Jeff rolled a 1 and now we’re all boned.
I’ll still want it, I’ll feel a strong sense of FOMO if I don’t, but I don’t really care any more. After seeing how much money GTAO was making I strongly suspect they’ll put a lot more focus on that. In my opinion gta online sucked a lot of ass. It was fun as a playground to hang around with friends in, but as an actual game I’d rather we’d have agreed on any other game to play. I would never load it up to play by myself.
I hope I’m wrong and the story mode slaps, but at the super-premium price it’s going to end up costing i won’t justify it.
These are the sorts of thoughts you have when you’ve been on some recreational pharmaceuticals and you know full well that you’ve just discovered the meaning of life.
Kudos for getting it written down, no matter how daft. I always used to forget and be left with the sense that I’ve let humanity down by forgetting sacred knowledge.
I’ve never heard the term trail shift before, but I can’t see anything other than that that implies unpaid labour. You’re right to check though. If you’re seen as a troublemaker for that, they’re not a company you’d want to work for anyway.
Bureaucracy moves pretty slowly i think. We’ve got another few years to find out for sure.
On the one hand, maybe it might be considered a little scummy for a megacorporation to financially abuse people, but the important point here is how dare you try to enjoy your life.
I feel that. I’ve had it a few times where a girl is walking in front same speed and direction for like 5 turns. I’ve had to go completely the wrong way before and make myself late for fear she’ll phone the police that she’s being followed.
She’d be justified in the fear, I’d be nervous if I were them, I just hate that that’s the world we’re in.
This reads like a total conspiracy theory. I hate that it all rings true.
