Wind? And binary cycle geothermal plants but not sure how common they are.

Here’s a documentary about the monkeys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkLeto3RZrk

How are they a gatekeeper? Near monopoly sure. But they don’t force companies to only publish on Steam. They don’t have restrictive rules. I’m not sure what gate they are keeping.

This isn’t new, at all. They’re just being more transparent about it. It feels shitty that transparency is met by outrage stemming from ignorance. Just buy from GoG.

For future reference, you can update LG TVs via USB so you can avoid connecting it to a network.

Yea I agree $40k is a bit disingenuous. But the cost of a car is more than the car itself. It’s better to view it as a ongoing expense of fuel, insurance, maintenance, etc. AAA estimates between 7-10k a year. https://www.aaa.com/autorepair/articles/average-annual-cost-of-new-vehicle-ownership

I got it for free with a CPU I bought. Played roughly 3 hours before I stopped. It was just too boring.

As with pretty much any staple food. It’s used as a filler. The reason you might not understand is that it can be expensive to eat only meat, veggies, etc. A cheap staple like rice, noodles, or bread is a good way not to die of starvation or at the least keep some money in your pocket.

If a staple food isn’t part of your daily diet, that speaks a bit of privilege on your economic position.

Also I enjoy rice. It’s neutral tasting but with a tiny bit of seasoning it’s good.

I didn’t grow up in a city, but currently live in one. I see teens take public transit to the mall and such. Wish I could have done that instead of relying on parents to drive me everywhere.

I’m also in the desktop camp. But I just purchased a Framework 16. The upgradable dGPU (assuming they release new ones) might make laptops more viable for gaming.

Comparing prices directly like this is almost irrelevant imo. And doesn’t really dictate what the price of games should be.

Reasons old games should be pricier:

• Hardware involved (cartridges/electronics).
• Total number of customers were smaller, you have to subsidize development with less total sales.

Reasons why new games should be pricier:

• Development has inflated to hundreds of people and multiple years (instead of dozens of people and multiple months)

But at the end of the day, business just price what the market will bear. It’s only indirectly related to the cost of production. The margins on some games are insanely high compared to others.

Good news, It’s coming out on PC.

As far as I know, it’s mainly games with DRM that might trigger on multiple installs/computers. So companies will disable family sharing. Not sure how common this is.

Yes to those and the battery is bigger. 50Wh vs 40

I bought it after waiting for the server issues to resolve.

Not surprising since they literally made a game for recruiting in 2002. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/America's_Army

Throwing UTC everywhere doesn’t solve comparisons around leap seconds. I’m sure they’re other issues with this method, but this is kinda the point of “just use a library”. Then it’s someone else’s problem.

Go to a library, some have scanners with feeders that will scan to a flash drive.

My understanding is the display uses MIPI (not eDP) which doesn’t support VRR.
