I think it’s hilarious that the evil guys group chat is exactly like your average corporate slack/teams group chat.

Removing sinophobia =/= censorship.

China does good thing Average lemmitor: this is bad actually

With the amount of 9s and 10s coming out, why would you waste time with a 7? The polarisation is just an effect of the language of clickbait spreading in society, but doesn’t change the fact that average games are probably not worth your time.

Every game that didn’t get made is the greatest game of all time in someone’s head.

Why do we like to pretend waterfall is this great old way to do stuff that had no problems at all?

Yes, it squashes the steam deck, that’s what I said.

I believe the biggest issue is more to do with matchmaking trying to provide engagement rather than good assessment of players’ skills. This is obvious when you see systems where winning gives you a good amount of points/tank regardless of the opponents skill level, which just foments even more the want for easy stomps rather than good games.

Is this complaining about skill-based matchmaking?

One of the reasons immigrants focus a lot on education is because it can’t be taken from you. They can take your money, they can take your house, your land and everything else, but what you know will always be with you, and that’s valuable.

Not that tests actually prove your knowledge in any way, but still.

The ease of use of the Steam Deck cannot be overstated. Yes you can tinker with it a bunch but if you just want to play your games, you download and play. The windows handhelds will never be as easy since windows is just crap for this (and MS is not interested in improving).

If you mean the switch, then it has been thoroughly squashed. If you mean phones, well I think we can agree they are not really competing for the same customers, and if you think they do, most people are buying phones for reasons other than gaming. So you’d need a way to section the market for “gaming phones” (yes, that’s a thing).

It just goes to show how out of touch I am. It didn’t even cross my mind that there would be an app to file your taxes, even though it makes perfect sense.

They weren’t independent before and will not be after the war. Just the master will change, maybe.

The average non-tech person only has a phone. And maybe a shared family notebook if at any point someone needed a computer for things that you can’t do on the phone (like filing taxes and such).

At this point if it changed it would be weird.

What usually happens in China is that, if the accused cooperates, their death sentence is commuted to life imprisonment. Otherwise they are indeed executed.
