To be fair, to me this does not seem that bad an idea. Live service games share a lot of DNA with arcades. That's easiest to see in mobile, where people play many short matches rather than long campaigns.

...frankly that also includes predatory monetization. People forget that games used to be so hard way back when so that they would gobble up kids' quarters.

For better or worse, live service Crazy Taxi seems to me like a faithful conversion of the original idea to the current day gaming landscape.

Ultrahand? I used it plenty but it never got that bad for me.

Well, it's coming. With that in mind it's better for it to be done well than come out underbaked.

Tears of the Kingdom is less beautiful or smooth than it could have been but it's definitely not garbage. Not like Pokémon Scarlet/Violet or Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.

Games eat up my SSD at an alarming rate. I could see myself using several TB easily.

At that point it's the dick that got a rat 😆

They can get bullied for not having phones, they can get bullied through phones and social media. They can get bullied for not having stupid ass Fortnite skins. Anything is an excuse for shitty kids who want to bully,

To be fair it's not like there's an icon showing what it does. Maybe it should have? I haven't had issues with overcrowded task bars since Windows XP.

You'd think but here we have your annoying ass throwing insults at someone you think uses Linux.

More like, a motivation for the wealthy who control the machines to kill us off.

AI sentience is still science fiction but AI-powered corporate exploitation is very real, right now.

The indifference of AI advocates is just apalling too. "It's going to happen anyway, they just gotta get over it, it's not real."

Teens can barely get over mild perceived embarrassment, nevermind having porn replicas of them spread around, and having to deal with related harassment. I dread how that will affect them.

I imagine that if AI devs didn't sneak around copying people's works in bulk but instead asked for permission or paid for a license, artists wouldn't hate it like they do now.

If Linux is not for you that's understandable. The thing here is that they are not having a conversation about Microsoft. They are having the pettiest, least technical possible discussion about Linux, it's devolving to pure clique shit talking.

If you want to talk about Microsoft, just talk about Microsoft.
