People have been saying this game is exciting because of the lack of mtx, but it seems to me that any big rpg gets a lot of attention. Eldan Ring got similar praise last year. Bioware was making these kinds of games fairly consistently about a decade ago and then stopped to make shit like Anthem. It’s a design decision not a budget problem.

Kojima got away with his product placement in mgs3 because nobody in the west knew calorie mate was a real product lol.

Wonder if he’s using that programming language he was making.

Lemmy feels like the first real alternative to reddit. Everything else was a ghost town or had no moderation so only banned subs would move. This recent exodus won’t kill reddit but it created a viable reddit alternative for when they inevitably do something worse. Reddit ran as a number 2 to digg for years before digg screwed up. I can see the same happening here.

I live in Houston. Probably the least pedestrian friendly city on earth. I would still walk over paying that.

Speaking of which whatever happened to FuchsiaOS? Did they kill it? It would be a shame if they did. I was interested in it because it was an open source OS that wasn’t Linux or bsd based.

I know there is some controversy with the ads and that it’s closed source but wow this app is really nice. I never used it for reddit I used rif so I didn’t understand the hype but I get it now. I’m holding out for an app with multireddit though. That’s the one feature I really want.

2.9 miles isn’t even far. You could just walk.

I’d say they are just moving away from the tacky bikini outfits from the PS2 era. I think katana and mileena look great. I think people have rose colored glasses when it comes to the character models for mk 9 they look much better now. As for the gameplay I won’t know until I play it but from what I see it looks more like MkX than mk11. I agree with you that SF6 will be hard to beat. I think it’s my favorite street fighter since 3.

Is Tanya being a bit ugly that much of a controversy? Game looks awesome and much faster paced than 11. The cameos are much better than the customizable characters imo.

If google gets their way websites will be able to block OS’s and browsers. But if enough people switch to Firefox they won’t be able to push this change as easily. Google Chrome has about an 80% marketshare in the browser market and most of the alternatives are forks of Chromium which google controls. If this doesn’t change Google will be able to do anything they want.

I’d say the solution is no drm. Piracy is a workaround.

Flatpacks give me the least trouble so I guess those. All though appimages seem alright too. Snaps however seem to never want to install. I like the idea of easy one click installs for every distro but I think we are a few years away from that.

If you are not using Firefox now is a good time to start.

More tech to change things in post. I feel like Hollywood is relying too much of this kind of technology to fix poor planning and writing. Look at all reports about marvel films being radically changed in post. You can tell when a film is a patch job.

That’s why I use matrix. No phone number.

Yeah your a mean fascist if you don’t like Instagram. Lmao.

I agree. I don’t really consider social media “technology” anymore. I mean yeah it uses technology but so does everything else. I don’t think technology is the right community for this kind of post. There should be an enshittification community where we can see all the Twitter, reddit, and meta stuff.

In fact a lot of “technology” companies are just regular companies with an app. Netflix is a media company, Uber is a taxi company that somehow skirted regulators, and Airbnb is a hotel company that also skirted regulators.
