If it looks like a developer made a mistake, it was actually the product owner. Or the user. Or cosmic rays. But never the developer.

Is it a Last.fm replacement?

I wonder how much of this correlates with the rise of intimacy coordinators. I’m sure there are productions that think it’s not worth the investment so they just scrap the scene and have it take place off camera etc.

And perhaps a rise in actors not wanting to have their stuff on the internet forever now (even more so with the rise of AI training)

As someone who buys a lot of gadgets and quite often barely uses them afterwards or has mild buyers remorse… I have never once regretted buying a Steam Deck. It really is an amazing piece of technology.

Pretty much just astroturfing isn’t it?

ACAB, it’s not complicated. The A stands for All. Catching a terrorist does not absolve you of all judgement

Tank controls have been pretty universally despised for many years now. Basically since we got analogue sticks, tank controls never really made sense.

Stuff like the Grim Fandango and RE1 remasters were offering alternate non-tank controls back in 2015 and there’s probably earlier examples too

Were you already wealthy or just a gambler? For me the idea of throwing $800 on a random share just because it was the cheapest is unfathomable
