This is hardly new.  Been doing this on steam for literally a decade now; VPN to Australia, decrypt, logoff, turn off VPN, and log back on.

Not wrong. It also inflates the labor pool, depressing wages.

What Randall is exposing here is simply the power of Entropy. Simply put, even if the character set is larger, a password with fewer characters is still mathematically easier to crack via brute force methods then one containing a smaller character set but many more characters.

Co-signed.  I have so many game-specific dosbox configs as it is.  Having a Retroarch core that actually works would be a godsend.

My father hates his 2020 Camry for much the same reason; it always kicks off when trying to accelerate through busy turning lanes because it sees the cars turning in front, causing the car to come to a screeching halt. He’s been rear-ended twice because of it.

Which will launch first?  KSP2 or the SLS?

For anyone interested, Korone recently did two all English Mario streams. Despite the obvious language barrier, it was absolutely hilarious. They’re easy enough to find on YouTube.

Sega is cooler then Nintendo, but they did shut down Streets of Rage Remake even after giving an explicit go-ahead on it’s development.  [To be fair, I think that was Sega of Europe and not Sega of America, but still, that one hurt.]

“Hey, I need some food.”

Eastern. I’ve found too many Western RPGs suffer from having too much freedom (EG: Lack of story focus) and far too much padding to try to fill their worlds with “stuff”. There are a few exceptions to this, but on the whole I’ve long gravitated to eastern RPGs, despite numerous attempts to get into western ones.

You’re not wrong. Personally, I’m rooting for some Falcom representation (they’re oddly absent at this point); I’d be fine with Adol but I’m rooting for Estelle.

It might be time to pull out the emergency fallback option: The number of Supreme Court justices is set by Congress, *not* the Constitution. A simple majority in both houses can simply vote to increase or decrease the number of justices. And since there’s no way for the Senate to block a nomination if Dems win it and…

“There’s a lot of studies that have proven that black people are incarcerated at disproportionate rates to whites but not that many that explicitly spell out why that is the case and certainly not that many which explicitly say “because systemic racism” as this paper does.”

3rd gear:

Plenty of people are buying. The problem is that startups need to make back their startup cost, which combined with low initial production rates leads to high prices.

From what I’ve seen, it sounds like most of the good parts of CKIIs DLCs are included in the base game, so CKIII is basically launching as an optimized and upgraded CKII + DLC pack.

“...making many players speculate that the finale of the invasion will be an assault on Jita itself.”

Well, they won’t be getting it from me. I would have purchased it on release, now I guess I’ll be skipping over it.

Texas is still +2 GOP, and likely isn’t in play until 2028 at the earliest. And while Arizona is trending blue, it’s not entirely there yet. Florida has let Democrats down to often to count apon.

At a consistent +8 those are gimmies. If Biden looses any of those the other states are moot anyways.
