Well considering a lot of the discussion on here is around tech and specifically Linux that doesn't surprise me. Very online tech people usually aren't that interested in sports.

Would be nice but congress is Republican controlled and for any court related stuff it could just go up to the supreme Court and be ruled Trump's way. Or just flat out ignored cause who is gonna stop him if he just ignores court rulings.

100% this is just cover for them wanting to have a monopoly on the sexy content of their characters. Cause the main appeal of these games seems to be how sexy the characters are so if you could go to some other website and look at them there instead then you wouldn't need to buy the game.

It probably becomes 1m 60s. I've had microwaves do it both ways, either having it only be in seconds or having seconds for two digits.

Edit: I'm dumb and very tired from Holidays, I'm leaving this up anyways though.

I feel like this is just the next level of what Reagan did to cripple the government. You make it so they can't do their job effectively then use the fact that it's not efficient anymore as the reason to get rid of it all.

Yeah its almost like if we didn't keep extending copyright protections a bunch of stuff would be in the public domain and any streaming service could offer it without having to deal with licensing.

As a gen z this confuses me, I have a wallet and most people around my age also have one. Sure maybe you could say if they carry cash or not cause I definitely don't carry cash but I still have my wallet cause theres a lot of places that don't accept phone payments.

One reason for this is these shows don't tend to show the morally questionable things a resistance has to do to be able to win. So it's a lot easier to side with the resistance in Star Wars when they're just fighting conventionally against the empire. I think a much better depiction of resistance can be seen in Star Trek Deep Space Nine with the Bajorans. They fought the Cardasians in a guerilla war which often led to civilians on both sides being killed. It's a lot more murky but the Bajorans are still unequivocally viewed as the good guys since it was the only way to resist and get rid of the Cardasians and stop them from killing their people.

Yes but at the same time Unreal doesn't really compete with Unity at all when it comes to 2D games. Unreal is primarily meant for 3D games and maybe you could make a 2D one work in it but Unity has a lot more resources for 2D games. That's why games like this switched to Godot instead of Unreal cause Unreal wasn't really an option. I could be wrong but when Ive made some projects in Unreal it didn't really seem to have any options for 2D games like Unity has.

It wasn't just Russia who was saying that wasn't gonna happen, basically everyone outside the US thought it wouldn't happen cause it would be a really stupid thing to do. Then it turned out they did it and it was really stupid and I think a lot of people were surprised the US was telling the truth and it wasn't just fearmongering.

I think they have pretty recently finally become profitable thanks to the increased amount of ads. Although you could always make the argument before that the data YouTube provides to Google that allowed their ad and data empire to thrive is invaluable whether YouTube directly profits or not.

This is a great idea. Not only does it maliciously comply with what Reddit said but it also has the chance of getting a mention on LastWeekTonight when they come back.

I was wondering if anyone knows any good game dev related communities. I used to use the Unity3D and Unreal Engine subreddits but didn't see anything like that while looking around at communities.
