It’s a ~10% increase, but the scale makes it look like the count shot up by 10x at first glance. I know that’s why you always need to look at the axis labels, but graphs like this are purposely presented this way because they’re easy to misinterpret for the average person.

Currently, they don’t even give you that choice. They’re the ones making that decision. Sure, you can buy it, but you don’t get to decide if you want to play their game longer than they want you to.

The goal is not to prevent you from agreeing to bad terms, it’s to prevent the companies from imposing those bad terms on people.

Would you rather buy a game that you know is going to die in a year, or the same game but that can be played for as long as you want?

Would you rather companies keep making games with a short expiration date, or games that people can keep playing if they so choose?

It’s a toxin that temporarily paralyzes the areas where it’s injected.

If you use a strip of parchment paper at the bottom of the pan and leave the ends sticking out of the top, it’s easy to pull the loaf out safely.

Mine aren’t as bad as those in the picture, but at -7 wearing glasses I can see perfectly. There’s just slight distortion at the sides that’s not really noticeable unless I’m moving my head to the side.

The middle looks normal, but the edges curve, kind of like a fisheye lens on a camera. If you look straight ahead, everything looks normal until you start to turn your head, then everything sort of squeezes into focus as you shift your field of vision.

The cheese doesn’t make sense. You can’t turn it back into milk.

KDE Connect might work. I’ve never tried it phone-to-phone, but it works great between PC, Steam Deck, and phone, as long as they are on the same network.

I’m curious what he was wanted for.

I mean ACAB and all, but pointing a gun at cops is a surefire way to get yourself shot.

What does Bobby Kotick have to do with Ubisoft? He worked for Activision/Blizzard.

It used to be enough. I played so much COD4 back in the day on Xbox and the only login I ever needed was my Xbox account.

But nowadays, they want more data from you than the platform is willing or allowed to share, so you need to log in to their service.

Usually they just give me their number, or sometimes they just don’t. I’ve never had to jump through hoops of fire, or tame a grizzly bear, or develop a new mathematical theorem to prove I’m worth a shot. “Can I have your number?” should just be a yes or no question.

Does that happen regularly to you? Because that’s not normal.

What’s this about titties?

The doors won’t open when the plane is in the air.

An article from yesterday said he claimed he was only going there for one day for podcast content, so him returning a day later isn’t surprising, the clickbait headline didn’t really need to call it “fleeing.” Government officials said there were no meetings planned or anything, so I doubt he was there in an official capacity. Just using his planned presence there to conveniently spout bullshit.

And I assume this would come with a box set of Kim’s Convenience and/or Schitt’s Creek?

Sorry, best we can do is Corner Gas.

At least Greenland, being part of Denmark, is also a part of NATO, which basically rules out military force. Unless you literally want to start another world war. Don’t do it, Donnie.

But they’ve been selling mid-range and budget GPUs all this time. They’re not adding to the existing competition there, because they already have a share of that market. What they’re doing is pulling out of a segment where there was (a bit of) competition, leaving a monopoly behind. If they do that, we can only hope that Intel puts out high-end GPUs to compete in that market, otherwise it’s Nvidia or nothing.

Nvidia already had the biggest share of the high-end market, but now they’re the only player.
