I’m pretty sure this is why coop shooters are getting more popular.

Especially in Australia, where there’s an insane amount of empty nothing to place wind turbines. Northern Australia gets twice as much solar irradiation as western Europe, it’s absolutely ideal for (rooftop) solar.
Economies of scale and “high density” power generation make sense for some places, but even a place with the population density of the Netherlands can cram in enough wind turbines to get a significant fraction of renewable energy. It should be a total no-brainer for Australia.
If you’re trying to make the argument that google isn’t just a search engine, then I fully agree.
And the 19th, and a large part of the 20th too

Well, they’re funding a fusion reactor. I think that’s very solidly outside of making videogames.
Yes.
Also, they’re very obviously, as you have just pointed out, not just a gaming company.
Why make it hard on yourself when idiots self-select into an easy target audience?
Welcome to the new Industrial Revolution, where one person can do the work of many. Sure, mass produced goodscontent aren’t as good as handmade artisanal products writing, but there’s a huge market for it.
It’s more than that. Conspiracy thinking like this is about feeling powerful and in control.
If all the bad stuff that happens to you is because of a shadowy cabal out to get you, it puts you in the middle of something huge, and you can even do something about it! If you just live in a vast uncaring universe where you can’t do anything and bad stuff just happens sometimes, that’s not comforting at all!
Quick, but them a pony!
One could absolutely ask what BioWare is thinking straying so far from the original, successful, formula. The answer of course is valuing short-term profit over the creating of something that will stand the test of time.
“SoulsLike games sells well, let’s make dragon age a souls like” is what they thought
They’re not, they’re one category up from Endangered, which is Threatened.
Still probably shouldn’t be hunting them…
Won’t a fire axe work perfectly well?
I didn’t say they were wrong, just that this would always be the answer
Well, I doubt their official position would have been “we prefer to be unemployed”.
Huh? They launched plenty of Starlink satellites since March, they may not be enough to keep up with the shutdowns, but rockets have been going up.

Edit: if you look at https://satellitemap.space/ now, the number of sats has been going up since march, but the number in service is shrinking, probably due to shutdowns exceeding replacement launches.
Launch capacity has kept steady since 2022, and so has life expectancy. We’re coming up on the end of life for the first sats, so it’s likely the total number has peaked, and will now drop to a steady state.
Why is there a hole in the brick?
If Russia and the west start shooting eachother, one of four things will happen.
1 - Russia grows a brain and backs down when they horribly lose a conventional war. (Unlikely, unless someone takes command authority away)
2 - Russia kept their nuclear arsenal up to date, and a tiny remnant.of humanity gets to enjoy the Stone Age again. It won’t hurt if you live in a city though.
3 - Only a tiny fraction of their nukes launch, and the west responds proportionally. A lot of people die, but at least we’ll fix global warming.
