It's 662% higher vs 7.62 times. So if x is the amount that big tech is reporting, the actual number is x + 662% or x * 7.62, both gives the same result.

Just make sure your family has a way to access your account. I very much doubt that Valve or most publishers will care that your kids have access to decades-old games after you're gone. Although I could see Ubisoft trying to take action out of spite, but that's only if they're still around by then, they're on pretty shakey ground at the moment.

Better option if this is an important issue for you is to only buy DRM-free. You'll have to wait for most AAA games, but most AAA games these days are increasingly not worth it anyway.

I'd love that link too if that's alright. Last time I tried to read Konsi in order, I kept getting sidetracked and reading all your other comics. Not saying that's a bad thing, but it's not what I set out to do.

That "worst case scenario" really doesn't seem that bad to me. Exactly what would happen to any busy that overextends themselves and runs out of money. What, exactly, makes Star so special that they feel they deserve relief from the government?

This is my thought with every single one of these. I was pleasantly surprised to see them on the new Ayaneo Kun, making it the only alternative to the Steam Deck I would consider. The lack of trackpads is too much of a limitation for PC gaming.

She's really killed Harry Potter for me. I'm envious of the people who are able to separate the art from the artist, because I would love to play this game but I just can't enjoy anything from that universe anymore without thinking about the horrible person JK Rowling has turned out to be.

To be fair, half of the AAA gaming industry is all about trying to clone the latest successful game with a new coat of paint. Maybe using AI to make these clones will mean that the talented people behind the scenes are free to explore other ideas instead.

Of course in reality, it just means that the largest publishers will lay off a whole lot of people and keep churning out these uninspired games in the name of corporate profits, but it's nice to dream sometimes.

It also means avoiding any future craziness in the name of "anti-cheating" from both Microsoft and publishers. It's bad enough that publishers are forcing kernel-level access now, but once there's a workaround for those applications, what's the next step?

If keeping these companies running is so important to public interest, why aren't they receiving public funding rather than relying on money given to them by shady third parties with their own political interests?

I also fail to see how these particular networks owned by international multinational corporations are really any better than any other international multinational corporation like Meta. There is just as much misinformation on Channel 7, for example, as there is on Facebook, and the fact that often that misinformation is communicated as news, therefore making it seem more trustworthy, makes it a lot worse.

Just wait until some oil baron says that sloth-dug tunnels is the way to "deal" with climate change.

The real conspiracy is that there's only one recognised holiday per year for most species on the planet, except for humans that get several per month. Seems to me that humans are trying to keep other species from having enough free-time to plot the revolution.

I also believe a lot of the hate stemmed from an undercurrent of real-life red-pill misogynists, but that's not to say all criticism was invalid.

The social commentary around She-Hulk was wild. The fact that certain parts of the fanbase were losing their minds over a silly post-credits twerk with Meghan the Stallion was both unsettling and entertaining to witness. If anybody had a problem with that but not the recurring America's ass joke in Endgame, they really need to go and take a good long look at themselves.
