People don’t know and don’t care. Privacy isn’t an issue on anyone’s mind (just like climate wasn’t 20 years ago). People don’t know or care about digital media ownership issues.
People don’t know and don’t care. Privacy isn’t an issue on anyone’s mind (just like climate wasn’t 20 years ago). People don’t know or care about digital media ownership issues.
The most important part of this is:
the vast majority of people never cared
We make our happy little bubble here to be outraged in. The world at large carries on without caring. Just in the past few years, there’s been the Reddit API change, the WhatsApp ToS change, the YouTube dislike button removal, etc etc. A small minority (like us) complains endlessly. The rest of the world shrugs and accepts enshitification.
Is Skullgirls still alive? Is there much of a player base?
To get serious for a second though: this is real and legit. You can find real happiness in the community that comes with a niche fandom.
It’s covered in this podcast if you’re interested: The Happiness Lab with Dr Laurie Santos - Nerd Out! The Happiness of being a Fan.
Every eventuality can’t be covered by regulation. Sometimes you realise something can go disastrously wrong after someone is hurt. I wouldn’t be surprised if this never happened to other mechanical cars to never need regulation. Sometimes you need to wait for a stupid product to exist for someone to make a rule saying “stupid products shouldn’t exist”.
Starvation and homelessness are quite powerful motivators.
I’m 6 months into fulltime OpenSUSE Tumbleweed and love it. KDE is amazing. The Steam Deck converted me. Linux users rise.
Dude, I’d love to get a group going for this and make it happen; but honestly I don’t play Overwatch anymore and it’s difficult to make time for multiplayer games anymore with kids and busy work. I only get a chance to play a bit of Street fighter 6 and some quick single player games.
I don’t bother communicating. I just play silently and usually mute the chat if it is toxic. Even games like overwatch worked out ok playing without communicating.
The only time I had a decent experience playing with strangers was when I found specific gaming subs or Discord communities (e.g. casual gaming, gaming dads, etc) and played in a Discord voice channel. This was actually a really good experience in games like Street fighter or Apex legends. I could do dumb shit in game and they’d be completely chill and say “it happens” and carry on to the next game. Haven’t done this for the last couple of years though.
The remastered copy on Steam let’s you speed up the game. It is much quicker running around at x4 speed and clearing random encounters. Then slow game speed to normal for major bosses and events. I would highly recommend this route rather than trying to find a PS2 again.
If you haven’t played FFX-2 or FFXII then those are worth checking out too.
Spider-Man Remastered - 80% completed the story and left it there. Lost interest. Didn’t see any point in exploring most abilities when a hand full of AoE enemy clearing abilities were so effective.
Guacamelee 2 I left close to the final boss and still think of it as one of the best games I ever played.
Cuphead - had plenty of fun, but lost interest in replaying bosses so many times over and over.
Eldest Souls - excellent game, but I took along break from it and when I came back I forgot how the mechanics and ability synergies worked out and felt like I was relearning it from scratch (except I was on advance and difficult bosses).
Overcooked 2 - my wife stopped making time to spend on the game and would rather watch TV together instead.
It Takes Two - my brother’s schedule never lined up with mine.
Sifu - got too difficult.
I’m not religious at all. But in responding to your question OP: we don’t have to understand why people believe. Religion just isn’t for us, and that’s fine. Other people find it has value, and that’s fine too. The fact that religion has lasted this long with this many people is proof in itself that there’s some value people get out of it. We don’t have to get it to understand that.
All the comments here that explain religion solely as dumb or irrational are just as closed minded as the people they’re criticising.
The fact that there are so many well functioning options for a DE that this can be an argument, is such a great thing.
It works better the way you said it, if you really want to drive the point that this will be a dead duck for sure.

I have no idea what I’ve missed… Till I go to someone’s house and watch raw YouTube and it’s unbearable.
Most people online seem to feel quite strongly about it.
I’m quite strongly against it. I was really happy that my Nintendo Switch Hori controller didn’t have rumble, because then I didn’t have to bother turning it off in every game.
But then again I’m odd with a lot of things. I see no difference between 60Hz refresh and 120 Hz. High end speakers mean nothing to me. Movies are all the same to me in 4K or high quality 1080p. High settings in games add nothing for me over medium graphical settings. It works out really well for me. I can buy cheap electronics that I really enjoy.
