To literally no one’s surprise, least of all the leadership at Amazon. No unemployment when you quit.

El Niño / La Niña are terms that the uneducated just learned about but pretend have always been common knowledge only because it’s something to desperately grasp into to “explain away” climate change.

It’s no different from the logic behind the same people who say “Climate change can’t be real, it was cold out today!”

Did invidious find a way around Google’s blocking? I remember a headline a week or so ago that Google had managed to completely block them.

Not at all. It’s a factory building game. 3D Factorio if you will.

I mean that’s not hard to do, Vance is at least vaguely human shaped.

Fun game, if not a little on the easy side. Beat Ante 8 on my second run. There is an endless mode thankfully.

I don’t think they’re doing that.

Not putting your WiFi password in would absolutely be reliable. I’d love to hear your ideas on how they’d remotely break into your WiFi Network

Yes, with the money he’d earn off the money he borrowed. This is why taxing unrealized gains is a national conversation. “It’s not money until you sell it” but you can borrow it like it’s money and make actual other money with it likes it’s money.

What it really comes down to is that this type of “safe” game design where you rehash the same game over and over again for 20 years thing used to make a shitload of money, that’s why they all do it, and now it doesn’t. Or at least, they’re discovering that there’s a mathematical maximum amount of times you can rehash something without innovating. And not doing that is too huge a pivot for a huge lumbering company like Ubsioft to make on a reasonable timescale.

This is what’s supposed to happen though. When not enough people buy games to make them profitable, the games have to change, or Ubisoft goes under. Either is fine.

No I mean me, the other people who’ve corrected you, the people who’ve downvoted you, and everyone else.

Well it is, it just doesn’t go out and do all the caching for you ahead of time, instead it’s on demand. You are right that as far as pre populated alternatives go, it’s just archive.org now.
