Okay, but can I promote Harry Kim?

Hey Canadians, you guys still have science up there, right? I got a two-four of Molson or Labatt for ya if you can lend your continental neighbors a hand. Don’t do it for the US, but help out Mexico eh?

Honestly, just let the YouTube algorithm run for a few hours on a fresh account. You’ll start getting right wing and “Christian” viewpoints spoon fed to you fairly quickly.

Honestly this is smart for Ford. The weak spot of an EV pickup in the American market is towing, and a gasoline range extender solves this issue while keeping most of the benefits.

Now, if they can market it effectively is another question.

Strange New Worlds (SNW) is the single best entry point for someone new to the franchise, and that’s a black mountain I’m willing to die on. It blends modern storytelling with the classic Trek formula, and since it’s basically a pickup of the original Pilot, it’s pretty darn close do the beginning of the timeline.

Strange New Worlds offers an accessible entry point that holds the same core as The Next Generation (TNG) or the original series (TOS). There’s only two seasons so far, but if you like it and are craving more, I recommend watching TNG afterwards, and continuing that line in order of series air date (DS9, VOY, ENT).

It’s easy for many of us to recommend our favorite series, or our own entry points, but the reality is most of Trek is dated and not a good place to start for someone used to modern television.

Probably the publisher. I think it costs a monthly fee to maintain on their end, so once the peak piracy / sales period ends almost every game has it removed.

Eh, I’m from Detroit, we drink Canadian beer and would never speak ill of our southern neighbors. Heck, I grew up watching Hockey Night on CBC and listening to 89x. Can’t speak for the rest of the country though.

But for real, these critters sound scary, and apparently we’re all out of science. Or any sort of common sense. Yeah, we’re fucked.

Considering he helped create Windows while working at Microsoft, and allegedly left due to the direction it was going, yes.

Genuine question - isn’t their terms basically “if you use these third party services you’re subject to their terms, and also were going to collect some data to see if people actually use this feature or if it’s a waste of time?”

Look, I code websites and apps and I know nothing about game dev. I dabble. But I don’t see any reason why an informed indie dev or studio would choose Unity over Godot at this point after what they tried to pull a few years ago.

Unreal is a different beast, but the versatility of Godot has been proven at this point and is on full display in this showcase, and from my uneducated standpoint seems to hold its own vs Unity’s offerings.

The building I worked at in the Chicago loop had showers for bike commuters. Might be a big city thing.

I don’t think that a forced esports league was going to prosper anyway. Things like EVO,l and pre-accusation MLG where the focus is independent of the game are where esports can flourish. It’s important to note that games change and interests shift, these “leagues” don’t have the staying power like traditional sports leagues.

With that said, Microsoft now owns the MLG name and assets, and could build that back up if they had interest.

Xbox is just a subscription rental business at this point, Microsoft doesn’t seem interested in gaming outside of that.

Now that’s one fit girl.

Honest question, but on a technical level isn’t discord basically IRC with some bells, whistles, emojis, and a some WebRTC Logic wrapped in electron with a large marketing budget? Throw in some cloud storage and a CDN for images. What am I missing? I’m not saying it’s “easy”, but I’m curious what it would take to build a solid streamlined FOSS alternative built on combining existing technologies.

Edit: I’m not familiar with the ecosystem… is the issue with existing FOSS bad UI and complicated onboarding? Missing features? Or is it simply a critical mass issue?

I feel this - I’m renting a house that has a motion sensor built into the kitchen sink. Now when I’m over someone else’s house, i can’t turn on the sink without giving a magical wave first like I’m some kind of wizard displaced in time.

Someone who needs to justify their big truck who both complains about taxes and gas prices. 🇺🇸

So in theory one could be banned for making a negative review video?

Vanguard was enough for me to nope out, but this just seems like more anti consumer bullshit to me.

So many words for what’s essentially a 2 sentence story.

As someone who once had to work with Oracle databases and licensing as a part of their job, i will never willingly use another Oracle product.
