That sounds like a dream come true for many of us who prefer taking ownership of data in our own hands but unfortunately things are not that simple.
How?? If it costs more to send data, Netflix will just send you lower quality video. You should want them to send you the same data or more data, but in a standard file type so it works with all your software and devices.
But hey, maybe companies will cut back on their node_modules folders now.
Good. Let’s hope it picks up momentum.
Says a .kr website. Like obviously I want DPRK to be 2.68 milliard richer at the expense of Binance, but it’s not like “North Korea will hack your computer” doesn’t work in all the accuser’s favours.
Inshallah this is true
The main point I was making was that these ‘sure bets’ resonate with people. It’s not just the money people throwing money at the wrong projects. Audiences (or at least the critics listed by metacritic) like the same things the publishers like: What they’ve seen before, but now with a larger budget.
I’m saying the reason GTA6 exists is because it’s profitable. No one was inspired to make GTA6 before Strauss Zelnick, and he does not even care what’s in. GTA6 was inevitable when GTA5 was profitable. If inspiration was a larger indicator of quality than money or skill, then your statement would be reversed. But it’s obvious that GTA6 has a higher chance of being good, because the initial spark actually doesn’t matter much.
Those are sequels too. Astro Bot is part of the Astro Bot IP. Astro’s Playroom was a pack-in game with early PS5s in fact. Elden Ring is arguable if you think it’s new IP or if the popularity is due to being linked to the Dark Souls IP. I didn’t count it when I thumbed through, but if you feel differently then that would be the answer.
The House in Fata Morgana - Dreams of the Revenants Edition - is a remake of The House in Fata Morgana.
Meaning you give GTA6 a 5% chance of getting an average score over 50%?
I welcome you to go to https://www.metacritic.com/browse/game/all/all/2025/metascore/ and see how many years back you have to go for the top rated game that year to not be a sequel. Or for the most expensive game made that year to not be in the top 3.
I hate HTML5, and absolutely think markdown or plain HTML or RSS or Gemini or some other standard would be a massive improvement. The problem isn’t picking the standard or creating the browser, it’s having content available.
Maybe you can campaign for a law that says if a data centre servers js, it legally has to be bombed. If a website doesn’t work without js they have to pay for a person to come to your door and operate it for you.

(Not very well counted. Please double check my numbers. Ironically it made me wish I had mcp for LibreOffice because I couldn’t figure out how to sort this data correctly lmao)
282 introduced after 6.19 (including).
117 introduced before 6.19 (excluding) and fixed after 6.19. There’s also 31 fixed after 6.19 that don’t say when they were introduced.
Could be EA wanting to raise the price before selling it.
Could be the people who EA is allowing to use the IP trying to raise interest ahead of raising funds, for example through crowd funding.
DLSS is GenAI, but you get crucified if you don’t have it. At the same time if you report using it by applying the badge, you also get crucified. There is no widely liked game on Steam from the last five years that doesn’t have some genAI somewhere, unless they’re visibly small in scope. If you just build an Unreal or Unity sample project it’ll already have GenAI (assisted) fonts and (GenAI denoised) sound effects, and probably a lot more.
Somehow games have transported the “No VFX” Hollywood marketing.
I can only speak for the countries I know anything about, but things steadily get worse elsewhere too. Yeah it’s hard to drop to USA-levels, but look at your own country objectively. Are the big things like work hours, purchasing power, access to similar resources as the rich, work safety, etc, getting better where you are?
And when you find an example of a specific thing, which of course happens; What motivated those gains? For where I live, it’ll typically directly follow a big protest and suddenly all the parties getting their act together for a week, or it’ll be the one thing the socialists in parliament managed that year.
Does it play Windows games? Switch 2 games?? What Android games are people playing yearning for 240hz?
“Some service members retreated into hotels and had to find their own food, including by ordering takeout.”
You’re right, there isn’t enough information in the image itself to disprove your proposal. There isn’t even a date. But given the geopolitical circumstance and the official character of the post, an implication of geopolitical motivation can be interpreted. Let me try to find some way to measure if the implication was felt by the audience.
Hm.
Perhaps if the audience unprompted connected the image to Russia? Aha! Yes, okay, so that would make a good piece of evidence to look for. In this case, our only audience is you. Did you link it to Russia? Actually, yes you did. You linked an article about Russia and the war in Ukraine.
Now we know that even if this was not planned as an act of indoctrination, the propaganda effect remains. 100% of our surveyed audience members linked the event to Russia.
The picture is showing a classroom, which is part of a school. The small people in the front are children. They’re all wearing school uniforms. Using advanced, human-level pattern-matching in our reasoning, we can make a guess that the children in the picture are attending the school as students.
What is being pointed out is that Bridget Phillipson took part in “making protests and statements about geopolitical events” herself, though in support of the UK’s current foreign policy. Lucy Powell is now saying that is inappropriate, which means her office has done something inappropriate without acknowledgement or comment.
What is being insinuated by pointing this out is that they don’t actually think it’s inappropriate, but they want to limit “making protests and statements about geopolitical events” to those that support the UK’s current foreign policy.
Rather than being interested in educating students, she’s interested in brainwashing students.
One hopes that the education system will try to give students tools to question and verify narratives, and live life with principles derived from dialectic analysis. But since that is proven false by the image, if you try to reason about this inconsistency or hypocrisy, then the likely conclusion you will draw is that Lucy Powell’s goal instead seems to be to create ignorant stormtroopers that will obediently carry out her genocides.
Hope this helps.
80%. You liking it 70% is consistent with the average (metacritic aggregate) being 80%. It’s ± 10%, you’re basically fully aligned with the reviewers.
The USA is literally attacking Iran in Iran. Clearly whatever boundary the USA set for itself already included inside Iran’s borders. Should Iran be afraid they might now start to overshoot?
