For all the talks about freedom and “decentralised” utopia the crypto bro cults spew all the time, they are really just obsessed with making absurd amounts of money fast. Their only motivation is greed.

Can’t say I’m surprised some regard Dubai as a goal. They only see the rich man’s club, they don’t care about how the sausage is made.

Roberts is relatively well-known in and out of the Star Citizen community for being a perfectionist at the best times.

In a parallel universe, Roberts would have been allowed to continue working on Freelancer, and it would still be in development hell in 2024 with no end in sight.

Well, good luck to Amazon trying to wipe my kindle remotely with black magic then.

It doesn’t have WiFi configured at all.

Got a very old kindle for free, from someone getting rid of it. No touch, no backlight, most basic thing ever. I only got my account on it to download a dictionary.

I am never buying anything from Amazon to read on it, but I’ve been using it quite a bit, only on calibre converted stuff. It was not too hard to set up, and once it’s done it’s just drag n drop.

It was technically always licenses for every video game ever commercialised. It’s just that a publisher has no practical way to control what happens to someone’s floppy/optical disc/cartridge/whatever physical media.

Most sports gamers have very low expectations of what their game should be, often they barely buy any other video game, so it’s just a random money sink for them.

They don’t mind being fed the same crap with updated roster every year, and worse, lots of them probably don’t mind them becoming slot machines. Either because it’s their own unhealthy habit or because they are not using the ‘feature’ and not interested enough in the inner workings of games to see how harmful they are.

Yeah mostly soothe them with music and keep their feeder going, but you’re always going to find one or two escapees.

I mean, there were lots of multiplayer games when I grew up, before CoD or Halo, but still.

Doesn’t change that I dislike most of these.

“D’abord le journal il a fait un article sur lui sans même lui demander la permission!”

Et en plus, ils ont essayé de le contacter avant.

Wow. On se prend pas pour de la merde dans ce gouvernement.

Has it ever been something else? Nobody using “woke” seriously has ever been able to define it.
