    Yes, their excuse is that the macros are bound to mouse buttons, not keyboard keys.  Not very convincing.

    Yes, I get the theory.

    You should not if you’re a rich old white guy and it’s the N word. There’s no excuse for you to not just say ‘the n word’ if you must refer to it. It’s awkward, but so is 400 years of slavery and white supremacist rallies in 2018. You probably shouldn’t say the c-word either.

    But I can see them fumbling around with it and they complain about it while I’m right there.

    But he meant it in the best possible ironic way for a rich old white media exec. The kids love that, right?

    I’m refusing to touch this till I get the actual game (day one).  RPG demos tend to spoil things for me, especially when there’s a gap between when the demo runs out and the game appears. ... ... must... resist...

    Who needs Republicans when we have California’s Democrats?

    There’s just no incentive for vendors to deliver a working system. The number of vendors you can use who can comply with all the government’s bull@#$ is not a monopoly, but it’s very limited. So the strategy is to cheap out the execution (outsource to India for that extra kwalitee) and deliver something that barely…

    This definitely is not limited to the government. Any large enterprisey hellhole where you don’t have customers who can leave has the same sort of factors. Health care, insurance, payroll - they have terrible websites. And internal company applications, oh boy, it’s like you’re using DOS again. Hell you’ve probably…

    They used the compiled (assembly language) released code and leaked debug information to piece together the original code. You could argue over whether this is reverse engineering, because real reverse engineering is just seeing what something does when you hit it with some input and replicating that - but in this…

    HA! I love it. He made the phone call this morning (though being him he had to make a press conference out of it and pretend he could never have done this before and it wasn’t his idea in the first place), putting the lie to all your crap.

    If there are any bits in the code that are relevant to copy protection, then yes they’re probably screwed. But AFAICR Diablo I didn’t have copy protection code, it was just a very slightly wonky CD that was pretty easy to copy with almost any full CD copying program. But if there’s code in there to deal with that,…

    It’s hard to say with the law, but it might be safe if they care to fight (probably not). See here for info:

    But by showing these zero viewer streams he inherently destroys their pristine beauty, just as you can’t measure the position of a particle without disturbing it.

    He didn’t deserve to get the shit kicked out of him, but the ‘victim’ was a complete moron. Gym ‘stealing’ is part of the game. It’s only ‘your’ gym as long as you can hold it.

    Can you Carmageddon the NASA rovers?

    This makes sense to me as an internal testing feature. If you’re testing stacks and clean up, you want to be able to really mess it up first and then see what clean up does or turning stacks on does.

    I don’t give a shit if the Obama admin did it or not. I wasn’t impressed with them either. ‘Well he did it tooooo’ is infantile. Fine, if he did it too, you’re both bad - they don’t cancel out unless you’re a two-party twit.

    You’re being lied to. This was a policy the Trump administration started in May 2018. Trump could end this with one phone call just like he started it with one phone call or one talk with Sessions.
