Okay, so let’s go down the list. Musk has bought Twitter so he could:
Yeah, mr.“selfmade” there. /s
Everyone’s ‘okay’ with it until it’s $5 more. Then another $5. Then another $5.
This is what’s happening with all of these streaming services. They’re all doing the gradual boiling water trick. They know if they turned the dial all the way to hot to make the water boiling, metaphorically speaking, that nobody in their right mind would want to jump in. But if they just turn the dial slowly, let the temperature build up by hiking these prices bit by bit, it wouldn’t cause that much of a stir and people will be complacent with it.
I’m mostly asking out of curiosity, but also maybe for anyone here that’d like to know. But if you buy Ubisoft games from GOG, like Prince of Persia, they won’t need the shitty Ubisoft launcher, right?
That’s the reddit logic for you.
Make a huge, heavily invested deal about a cause.
Do something that suggests that there’s going to be a follow-up of change.
But actually do nothing about it and resume status-quo, while talking about how there could’ve been change, what can be done and act all defeatist.
DOOM and DOOM Eternal
Does anyone remember being around people, when you were a kid, that awarded you behavioral stickers that are holographic and had various shapes like stars or animals?
This is exactly what this stupid verification thing is about. OoOOOoO, I’m so special that I got a fucking checkmark next to my name and I actually spend money that could’ve gone to something else worthwhile just to keep it! /s
I feel like we’re in a world where all of these companies are fronted by childish adults that treat all of their userbases like these kinds of kids. But they pretend that they’re adults because they do business things.
A grand majority of my games now reside in PC. All 1,100+ of them across platforms like GOG, Steam, Epic, Blizzard .etc
I’ve just sent a friend my old PS4 slim that had a handful of games for it but I don’t really touch it for months. I’ve invested too much into PC to simply just drop it all for consoles.
That’s the best part of Final Fantasy, is that a lot of them don’t really interact with eachother unless they are direct sequels and spinoffs (like Dirge of Cerberus for FF VII or FFX-2). At most, there is references and they all do share bits and pieces because they’re relatively in a giant universe. Like, you’re always going to see Chocobos. Bahamut is always going to be a part of the game in some role. Cid will always come around and vice versa.
But generally, the story will be different, the cast will be different, the mechanics will be different .etc
I haven’t because Netflix hasn’t given me a good solid reason to return to them.
I wouldn’t exactly say everyone is too tired to fight this stuff. Because, a bubble has yet to burst somewhere if it hasn’t already. Netflix just fails to see the bigger picture of this problem and once that bubble bursts, the bubble of financial strains on society, they’ll feel it tenfold.
I don’t see why my vehicle has to tell me what song is playing through my IPod, on the screen where the wheel is, that displays more important information like tire PSI and speed. The bigger screen is more than sufficient.
I don’t understand what shilling will earn for these people. The corps don’t care about you. They never will and never have. Do these shills think there’s some comfy bonus to be gained if they wave their flag around in support of greedy practices?
People who’re gullible. I’m sure Twitch thought the same thing when their subscription service is exactly the same thing. $12 a month, just to remove ads. On top of them assuming you have Prime too, which is $15. So they want you paying $27 to get rid of ads.
I could’ve sworn that September is the target date.
I still think they’re gonna just launch Blizzard.net anyways, similar to Ubisoft games and EA games. Let’s not get too ahead now.
Yeah I’m seeing this stupid 10G thing advertised by Mediacom, too in my area. Like, we’re just entering 5G era here and there’s this…10G? So, you’re meaning to tell me that we’ve been duped into believing 5G all along as being the next best thing but oh wait, did they dig this 10G shit out from some governmental secret program that was hidden for years to provide us this speed to browse with?
I’ll gladly take YouTube Shorts Block. It is by far, to me, the most unnecessary thing I’ve found on YouTube. So when you watch one of these things, note that you cannot control the volume of them. It’s always mute or not mute. They also have a tendency to snap in place when you’re between videos and in doing so, will restart the video all over again. It is annoying.
I get it’s purpose, but I don’t need it in my face.
And all of them are probably going to be slightly alternate from eachother, but serving no significance. Kind of like those Mortal Kombat endings where each character had a slideshow ending, but just reworded.
Firefox is only a secondary browser to me these days. I’ve grown tired of it’s performance for years because the Mozilla group would rather keep stuffing unnecessary features into the browser and bring about it’s own ecosystem that it may be collecting data from itself that nobody may know about than fixing that god damn memory leak.
And the government continues to give them more money. I’ve figured it out now.
People want better broadband. ISPs promise to broaden internet. Government gives money. ISPs spend a considerable amount of the promise of better broadband in marketing. Doesn’t happen. People still want better broadband. ISPs promise again. Government gives more money. ISPs continue spending on marketing.
Over and over.
