- this is a member only article so people are going to mention the (pay) wall
- this is about a tweet from 2020
- what does expressing overthrowing a country in 2020 have to do with c/technology?
It’s telling how you get downvoted, but someone saying the same shit about Apple in this thread gets upvoted.
I hate shitty practices like everybody else, but please keep them to the same standard.
As someone who found elementor the only thing that was working at the time - any suggestions to do better? I have no coding experience fyi
Yep, I was only summarizing their angle. Here are the specifics for anyone who wants to read the source documentation: https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/keys#3
The only thing that doesn’t sit right with me is developers stating Steam threatened to delist the game when they expressed wanting to sell elsewhere. I haven’t seen any proof except just the statements, but it would be weird for a developer to lie about that stuff. If anyone has any more sources on that, it would be appreciated
So when my gay friend invites me to come over to the gay bar for a few drinks, I should refuse because it would make them unsafe?
That’s exactly what they’re trying to say. It could have been cheaper if Valve didn’t have pricing clauses that doesn’t allow developers to price things cheaper elsewhere.
Great list, pretty much my childhood. I’ll add some more:
Total noob here but wouldn’t it be possible to have an ARM device stream the content to your browser? So you got a viewport of a compatible device that shows you how it would look like?
True parity would be impossible without porting it to x86, but that would give you a glimpse if the UX is decent enough
Idk any tech support communities, but you should try booting into BIOS to see if your storage drive is detected. If not, it probably failed (read: it’s dead, fam)
You could try to see if you can reinstall the OS but if the BIOS doesn’t detect the drive, I doubt the OS setup will.
While the data loss will suck, a new drive isn’t very expensive. Plus if you’re still on a HDD, it would be a good time to replace it with an SSD.
Care to elaborate what makes it so special? I’m intrigued and I never really play licensed games because they are usually trash
Nah, you can’t patent gameplay mechanics unless they are super specific and interconnected.
Taking what’s good from other games and turning it into something new (or similar) is known as remixing and it happens all the time. Like mentioned in another comment, Palworld did this by taking the fun elements of different genres / vibes (Pokémon, Survival games, Shooters) and making that into a game.
Even the Pokémon Company had to put a statement out basically telling the Xitter drama seekers to shut up and stop reporting the game for infringement, because there wasn’t any.
Just make sure (like you already mention) not to use assets, sounds, names and other IP related subjects.
Seems like a lot of folks are not really interested in the quirky sport, so saying fans are rejoicing because of this announcement sounds like they don’t really understand why people played HL.
Its like saying Dark Souls fans rejoice because From Software announced a fitness spinoff called Yoga with Solaire. Okay actually, they might. Bad example.
An enormous amount of information can be inferred by knowing your activity and fitness levels.
No, it’s just step count and elevation, to provide more accurate details about your workout.
So you’re making shit up to be upset about and can’t even be bothered to look up what it means, but the real problem is me being derogatory. Got it.
It never was. It’s freedom of speech without having to fear governmental penalties, broadly speaking. Several categories like incitement, false advertising and CSAM should not be acceptable “speech”.
refreshing and clean

This is specifically the permission to track your movement, not your BMI or other health data. It’s to turn your iPhone into a step counter. Probably something they use when you are in the store to help you find items?
Weird how everyone is being upset at this and didn’t check what this permission does before piling on.
Nah it’s more stories like this post. A meme community to share kid stories that are a mix between dad/parent humor and absurd/illogical/stupid scenarios (through the lens of an adult, but makes perfect sense for the kid). Like this:
Well yeah it’s sarcastic, obviously 9 out of 10 times it’s adorable. But also really stupid in a funny way
I was sooooo salty when SC III went PS2 exclusive. I mean not really but I was pretty bummed back then. Until I got a PS2 to go with my GameCube and Xbox, at least.
Soul Calibur was one of the few fighting games I really enjoyed because of the different weapons and stats they could have. It really set it apart from the other fighting games back then like DBZ, Bloody Roar, Mortal Kombat, etc.
The intro cinematics were pretty epic for their time too!
I couldn’t read any further, so thanks for more context. I would really love it if we’d share more open articles here so there is the full context to digest and discuss
