Why is this a news article? It's a reddit comment to a reddit post. And while I like to take things at face value, believing a reddit post is another level of gullible.

Fucking finally. I love a funny joke but if you're looking for serious reviews, you currently have to wade through a sea of trolls, jokes and copy-pasted meme reviews in order to figure out if a game is interesting to you.

Community features are cool but if you're the most popular platform of your kind, you're gonna attract a lot of trolls who's content can be really out there. Filters are a good solution to this!

Better quality

Who needs to give their browser access to their camera?

The quality mode not working is the only real bug. Mods being broken because of an update is expected and normal. Give the mod creators time to update their work and it will be fine.

Unless they've moved on to other projects, then you gotta use a specific version of the game. But that's also not out of the ordinary.

A Kotaku piece about a reddit post, posted on Lemmy. It can't get any better than this

What's the point in these bots posting news articles about stuff covered a week ago?

Can it still be called "Sid Meier's" Civilization when he doesn't even know what the game ships with?

Don't get me wrong, I've been playing since CIV2 and it's been pretty good, but that just strikes me as weird.

(...) the boss didn't know – or care

Oh they knew. Don't be naive

“We have received feedback from customers that several reboots (as many as 15 have been reported) may be required, but overall feedback is that reboots are an effective troubleshooting step at this stage."

A lot of liberties taken with that headline.

I think people just love to troll so they nominated Starfield. Then figured it would be really funny if SF won.

Unless the reality is that the majority of gamers does not give a single fuck about quality and innovation and just wants to play the next FIFA EA FC, CoD and Bugthesda stuff

From the first source on the linked study, they describe it as the following:

(...) This functions as a mirror providing the second opportunity for photon capture by reflecting light back through the retina, enhancing visual sensitivity.

It's 6% of revenue, not profit. So it cuts even more into profits as it doesn't allow a company in breach of regulations to reduce the impact of the fine by adding expenses that will temporarily lower their profit.

Even more spicy, they can also impose periodic penalties up to 5% of the average daily worldwide turnover for each day of delay in complying. That shit can bankrupt you.

No shit. Glad they investigated it so it's official, though. I ditched my account when Phony Stark took over as the writing was on the wall.

Anyone who still uses X is complicit. There's so many alternative platforms to invest in, there's no excuse anymore.

This is not criticism but is there a possibility we can get away from X? I feel dishonest with myself for navigating to that shithole.

Poor woman, btw. Either you become a funny meme or ridicule meme, and she happened to be the latter.

Can't read the rest of the article because paywall but apparently users have chimed in saying rebooting 15 times worked for them. Whether they were serious or not remains a question. I can also imagine it was a time-related thing and after 15 reboots enough time has passed for it to be fixed so the user thought 15 times was the magic number.

Regardless, it's been a shit show.

How does one interpret "extramarital affairs" as "minding their own business outside of marriage"?

I know this isn't what you want to hear, but they are basically saying that you wouldn't be a good fit with the team.

Now as for the exact reasoning they will probably not tell you, as ambiguous rejections are easier to manage. But to me that sounds like they think you need guidance / support that they cannot offer (read: don't have the budget for).

Not saying I agree with any of it, mind you. Just giving my interpretation

Nah
