it is non-fungible

They also never actually try and fight their corner. Every exchange I’ve had with a crypto bro has basically been:

But they said his answers were vague and leaned on buzzwords like “metaverse” and “web 3.0,”

Best shield in the game and now in real life.

Activision/Blizzard may no longer be an innovative game company, its employees are trailblazers still. This bold and forward thinking move shows once again that the real power of an organization is in its people, rather than its C-suite and shareholders.
Here’s to hoping they succesfully unionize!

We can be persnickety about the precise semantics of gambling, but the question is: do gacha games exploit the same psychological vulnerabilities have that gambling does? Is it unethical for similar reasons?

anyone that goes on about personal freedoms has never been challenged in his life and is an entitled jackass.

Got my booster on Monday! Took less than 20 mins. I had to nap a bunch yesterday but now feel fine. It’s almost like keeping up with vaccines is NOT A HARD THING AT ALL TO JUST FUCKING DO in order to protect others and reduce the transmission numbers as a whole.

I think it’s also worth mentioning that this game was made by a single person who barely knows/knew how to program.

I think it’s worth mentioning that this game is about 2 hours long.

Man, if I made a parody of myself killing a coworker and a supervisor there’d be serious consequences. It’s kinda crazy that I’d be held to a higher standard than someone in one of the highest government offices in the country.

I can’t think of any other job where you could do this without being fired.

Yeah, I built my first one nearly a decade ago and it’s basically like a Lego kit or IKEA furniture. Follow the steps (there are a thousand guides) and don’t force anything and you’re probably fine.

Google “long COVID” and get back to me on the quality of life of that entire “survival” thing.

Can you please link to the study that found this number? I’m interested in learning more.

this sounds like the title of a very good GDC talk

Given the tools, players will always find the least fun way to play a game

This will always remind me about ‘Boots’ Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness. Where the rich person can afford a good pair of boots ($50) that will last for many years whereas the person can only afford to buy an okay pair of boots that still gets wet ($10) and last maybe a season or two.

How does one have undeserved confidence?
