I mean, I’d usually agree with you, but in this case we’re talking about competitive-level players. I seriously doubt anyone signing up to play in a tournament at this level doesn’t actually own the game.

This is also where I have mixed feelings. I have several trans friends, and the bigotry and intolerance they face every single day is something I would never want to have to deal with. But at the same time, this is supposed to be a pretty shitty future scenario, with megacorporations exploiting everything they can in…

Just going to link this from a separate comment thread, as it explains that the device in question isn’t actually meant to induce seizures. https://kotaku.com/1845835141

Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by stupidity

Just spitballing here, but maybe something like “you can’t resell a product that’s still available via normal retail channels for more than you paid for it?” I’m not saying I necessarily agree that government regulation is the way to go, I’m just trying to think of fair regulations that might be feasible.

I don’t know why you’re being such a dick, all they did was answer the question that you asked. Which, to refresh your memory, was “How exactly does this retailer identify a console up for sale as one of theirs?”

The retailer that this whole article is about?

If you ever need to boot the PS4 up into safe mode (which I’ve needed to do multiple times, especially after power outages) the power button is the only way to do it.

Dude, this is a friggin’ video game website comment section, not the goddam New York Times.  Responding to a comment just to complain about “lowering the level of communication in the community” is what’s really “cringe AF”

Weird, I don’t remember much exposition from the first episode. Regardless, it’s a fantastic series, aside from one uber-annoying character whose shrieking, whining dialog I always skipped through.

That makes me think of Ryukahr, whose Super Mario Maker videos I love, but any of his retro game videos drive me INSANE. He’ll start playing some old game that I love but do absolutely no research regarding controls or mechanics and will just derp his way through, completely oblivious to the fact that he’s missing out…

> We fucking NUKED Japan. Please explain the war crimes they committed that EXCEEDED this.

Looks fine to me? They have a very distinctive style involving lots of hand-painted high-res assets that are animated by moving various parts of the 2D “model” around. It would be incredibly difficult and time-consuming to do more traditional animation using their painterly style.

I wouldn’t say most of his friends got killed, unless I’m misremembering pretty hard. Whitebeard, yes, but most of the other crew got out I think.

Yeah, a better phrase would have been “she’s not free to act on that belief in a way that causes harm without suffering the repercussions of those acts.”

Yes, but that’s a symptom of the overall legal system, not of trademarks specifically.  We should adopt a system like the one used in most of Canada where the loser can be required to pay some or all of the winner’s court costs.  The specific amount/percentage is decided by the court.  So a small company can decide to…

Man, modded Minecraft is the digital equivalent of crack to my brain. I absolutely love logistics and automation, and the sheer number of tasks in modded Minecraft that can be automated, and the RIDICULOUS number of different ways one can automate them, make Minecraft a game I have to stay away from for the sake of my…

God, of all the characters, it had to be Zenitsu - the most annoying, whiny, cowardly, just-will-not-shut-up character on that show. I think I probably fast-forwarded through like 90% of the time he was on screen and talking/whining/yelling.

I mean, they’re just names for moves. I’m no skater either, but this stuff isn’t rocket science, and you can pick up the most common things in the first few minutes of play. A manual is just where you skate on just the two front wheels of the board, and like he said in the article, the purpose of that is to allow you…

The only thing I agree with you on is the tail lights.  The entire rest of it.. just unf!
