Not saying they would. Only that telecoms will find ways to pocket as much, doing as little as they possibly can.

Spending time with developers at events is not the same as developers having open access to the actual hardware and development tools needed to actually understand how to make things for it. When Sony or Microsoft nail down the next generation consoles, they give developers dev kits years ahead of launch so they can…

Will probably get squandered/embezzled by unmotivated ISP’s.

Great, it works, but what sort of support will it see? what developers, if any were given access to make games or software for it? Apple will need to go against every fiber of its past existence and work WITH others to make this thing worth its price tag. Last I heard, nobody got dev kits until after it was unveiled,…

I can see it from both sides. On one hand, the original trilogy went out of its way to drive home that Luke and by extension, Leia were the Jedi’s last hope at defeating the empire and the Sith. On the other hand, its far more believable and interesting story-wise if there are a number of survivors who each have a…

Sorry, but remote work has nothing to do with real estate. If anything, the fault there lies with rental companies who buy up all the land and available house just to rent it out or demolish it and build apartments. You wanna see cost of living and housing come down? Regulate rental companies.

I would imagine that heat generated only becomes an issue if it can’t escape fast enough or can, but too quickly. the heat itself isn’t the problem, it’s the balancing act of greenhouse gases that regulates the rate of dispersal.

lol I remember when the switch came out and people pretended 1, 2 switch was a decent game because there was very little else to play. As soon as more games started coming out, people seemed to forget this game existed. Funny how I was just thinking about it the other day when a coworker and me were talking about the…

My rule of thumb is keep a box for 30 days or for the duration of the warranty. After that, it's garbage. Too many people hold on to shit in hopes it'll be collectable down the road. But that mindset almost guarantees that we hoard everything and nothing becomes rare and therefore valuable. At least not until much,…

Wonder if the actors are getting anything since their voice work is being reused. I could see their contracts stipulating Konami owns the recording and can do anything they want with them after, including reuse them, but on the other hand, they are making more money off their work. They deserve something as…

Moogles always seemed sort of weird and out of place to me. Maybe because I wasn’t old enough to really enjoy the game before 7, but they were just there. With no explanation, no purpose other than maybe to sell stuff to the player or fulfill some other background role. I’ve also always kind of disliked the whole…

and that might be the case now, but at the rate tech advances, humans might get to the point where it doesn’t cost that much. but you cant develop the final version of a technology without the first however many iterations of it that lead to it. its expensive now, but its leading somewhere and giving up on it dooms us…

Emerald was missing.

Okay, and what happens when that's full or made uninhabitable? What if our presence there speeds up climate change even more than the current rate?

So? Can we really afford not to overspend? Space shit is expensive, and if you don’t do it right, it’s also dangerous. Give them what they fucking need, or don’t do it at all. At at the rate we are ruining our planet, they better be doing it because we will need somewhere else to go someday.

Nothing making me install the patch though! XD

You are oversimplifying. Yes the know what they are making, but it's one thing to hear about the problems in the company and another to be on the receiving end for an extended period of time. Most decide the pay isn't worth the trouble and leave.

Video games are a hobby. Paying rent and driving to work are necessary parts of functioning in current society. Your analogy isn’t exactly sound. I say that as someone who loves videogames and is against the price increases.

Ew, god please don’t let Zelda go down the same path Assassin’s Creed did. 

I mean people WILL use it to cheat, but for the lazier ones, it’ll be obvious. the smart ones will take what it generates and make changes and fine tune it, and honestly, as long as it reflects their actual thoughts, they just saved hours of work. thats working smarter, not harder and I’m here for student’s being able…
