Question to all those knowledgeable people out there. Can any of us do this? How hard is it?

I’m sure they’re trying to stop fake imports, but at the ground level, I’m wondering about the rate of success.

I’m living in Korea, I love Pokemon, and I’m addicted to these claw games [and not THAT terrible at them!]

I’d estimate like 20-50% of the prizes could be fake, and there’s definitely a strong incentive for

I mean, do you actually pay for any articles or journalism? Ads is how these things stay afloat. It’s fine to hate ads, but don’t feel self-righteous as what’s basically freeloading.

The idea is to force others to pay them to allow ads to be visible. So many people use Chrome that they would have to do it in order to get people to see their ads

Google’s ads already meet or exceed the standards they plan to hold others to, so for now, anyway, that isn’t a concern.

Also, I like to think that the reason those browsers haven’t done something similar already, particularly Edge, is because Google would cry fowl at such a move.

Isn’t this weirdly self-serving for a company that relies primarily on ad-revenue?

It’s not like their own ads will ever be blocked by Chrome. While I appreciate the standardization and limiting of ads, this is still a curious play, until Edge, Safari and Firefox follow suit.

Fuck you.

The problem is that there are thousands of naive young programmers fresh out of school willing to do the job for peanuts, and higher-ups know it. The second someone shows signs of being unwilling to work those inhuman hours, they’re out on their ass.

I used to be in the camp of haters that wrote off every Madden iteration as a roster update. About three years ago, a group of my friends invited me to their fantasy football league to round out the numbers, and I became a fan ever since. I started playing Madden and I can definitely see the appeal that it holds.
