Yeah Baldur’s gate 3 and hell divers are both doing terribly

Minecraft is pretty unique, or was until its imitators appeared and is the most popular game (or is it second to Tetris?)

I think release then fix became common as soon as internet distribution became practical

Back when everything was on physical media the releases were more polished

I hear about people getting Minecraft on game pass. Those people don’t play Minecraft like I play Minecraft

If they die, other companies will buy that IP

$35

I like Steve Mould’s ad reads. He does science content and seems to only advertise products and services he uses, so his ads are mostly straight “this is what I like about the product, what makes it different to alternatives, this is why I use it, this is the stuff they told me to say”

He’s one of the few YouTubers I actually believe when he says a product is good

I was taught to use spaces for thousands in Canberra

Funny, in Australia we have school dances and they don’t get anything like American proms, with the possible exception of girls’ debutante balls which we dress up for

That’s probably because your file is over 10MB and would be rejected by most receiving systems

Full refunds would be reasonable, if they wanted to protect their IP

If your modification makes it unroadworthy, you might not be allowed to drive it on public roads

If your modification changes its structure you may need certification that it is still roadworthy

I’m not seeing a case where you’re restricted by law from modifying the car

Software has special legal protections. You can stop it working with impunity, you can break it with impunity, you cannot legally defeat security on the software. Corey Doctorow calls the software protections “felony contempt of business model”

Tesla allow you to opt out of all connectivity

It means you would have no maps, no driver assist, no Internet radio

Anyway if you buy a car it is yours. The worst you can do is break the contact for whatever services are provided by the connectivity. You are allowed to modify a car however you like

Tesla don’t support CD. You’d need to rip those to mp3 and keep them on your phone to play over Bluetooth

If they’re embedded in a combat group they take their chances.

As a rule when talking to management you love the place you work, 5 years? You’ll be there in ten

I mean unless you have complaints you really feel you need to raise

They won’t tell you if they’re planning on firing you. You take the mandatory notice you must give as a target and never give more notice than that.

Side loading is practically useful too. I was on a dining holiday in Italy. Italy has zero traffic limits in various cities which are best found through the ZTL app

But that’s a region limited app, and my phone couldn’t see it. So I downloaded the APK and installed it. I couldn’t have used that app had I been using iPhone.

Are they paying you for covering three timezones’ business hours, or are they paying you for about 8 hours in your timezone?

That guy pretends he was fired and sued for sharing that meme. He was neither. He was told off, got butt hurt and stopped going to work, got fired for not going to work, lied about being fired for the meme and got sued for the lie

I use an app to cycle through a dozen different backgrounds. Some of them have bold colours. Google handles it fine. I feel like Apple would tell me to manually set the right colour four times a day

My mother’s garden was watered with rain water. We don’t have acid rain so there’s nearly nothing in that and that garden is quite productive. Plants get all the nutrients they need from well fertilized dirt

So tap water is also bad? That has no minerals to speak of, at least where I live
