For AI: They have limited funds and AI creates a lot of unmanaged Abandoned-on-arrival code. This gives then grounds to remove the abandoned slop code bases.

Really not hard to understand why they would restrict it.

If it's direct play, this makes sense, but it sounds like maybe they are transcoding video

You don't even need to do that. You can just type yay

Eloping was one of the best decisions my wife and I ever made. We still spent a bunch, but it was for the two week vacation that went along with the elopement instead of 3-4x that for a single day.

If someone is going to say they are willing to allow a number of deaths a year to keep our second amendment rights and then that person gives their life for that cause. I'll be happy for them.

He gave his life for the cause.

Closest comparison I can give of it is.... It's like clicking "Yes" when the User Account Control (UAC) popup appears on Windows when you're installing stuff. That's you, as an admin, confirming you want to perform whatever action is being performed.

sudo ... is perform an action/command as an admin.

As for the mods. A lot of the time it's a matter of taking the files you downloaded, and dropping them in the game directory (or a directory within the game directory).

Once you do it manually once, you'll see it's pretty straight forward and you don't really need the mod managers.

I'm a Linux user and that infographic scares me

Looks fine on Jerboa

Most notably, I hate when people complain about spawn camping and snipers dominating.

There are assholes I really hate though. Getting boarded by a galleon crew who spawn killed us repeatedly on our sloop, without ever sinking our ship, in Sea of Thieves

Is this not contradictory?

Disclaimer: I've never played Sea of Thieves.

Indeed an unpopular opinion but you're missing a key point that Sony, being the publisher, decides where the game is sold. They chose to sell it in countries that cannot create PSN accounts. A huge reason this blew up is because of that fact.. along with their (Sony) response to that, or at least the representatives people got responses from.

Whether it was an accident, stupidity, malice, whatever... Doesn't matter, Sony screwed that up.

Edit: On top of all that the PSN requirement was crippling the release of the game. If the CEO hadn't disabled the requirement to link to PSN the game may not be as successful as it is now.

Honestly the CEO probably saved the game and increased sales, which helps Sony...

6-7 years in development and 6 months before they drop this requirement that does little to nothing except inconvenience the customer, not to mention Sony's track record with data breaches...

Give me a break. Greed did this. Sony's greed. Nothing else.

Rarbg shut down I believe.

Rarbg is gone unless I'm mistaken.
