Former Dragon Age writer says Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Baldur's Gate 3 prove 'what's possible when a game is given time to cook'
Last three Bioware games had plenty of time to cook. The chefs were just bad. They chose the wrong ingredients multiple times, had to start over and still ended up with something barely edible.
I know it's popular to go "developer good, publisher bad", but in Bioware's case, from what I've read, they were mostly just given the rope to hang themselves.

Why would anything in Minority Report bother them? If anything all the potential exploits are a feature, not a bug.

I bought headphones with aptxLL, only to find out that newer Qualcomm chipsets have depricared it in favor of aptx adaptive. It's not backward compatible and at the time there wasn't a single adaptive set of headphones on the market. I would either have to buy a >4 year old phone or get a new pair of overpriced headphones to use it now.

Pixel 8 leak promises 7 years of OS updates—even more than an iPhone
My phone came with a11 and is now on 13. I would have loved to stay on 11. Every update seems to take more things away than add any features I would actually use. An example is a12 making it so certain links can only be opened by default by "trusted" apps, Youtube for one. I've found workarounds but it's still annoying.

Fortnite developer Epic Games wins Australian court battle against Apple and Google

It was always about the game. What you just described was just their argument to win in court. All Epic cares about is their own profit margins and control over distribution. That the ruling might be a net positive for others is incidental.

I fail to see the contradiction. They want their own game on their own platform, where they control everything. It just irks me that they present themselves as champions of justice is all.

For me, it not only reloads every time, but it reloads from cache, meaning I have to manually reload again to get the latest version of the page I was on. And the first reload from cache is slower, not sure how that makes sense.
