And then you take that token and give it to your AI…?

Honestly, I’d argue it’s about both.

Imagine being a staunch supporter of party X that gets involved in a scandal. 90% of the MPs defend the scandal, while 90% of the party X voters oppose it. With proportional representation the party could split and voters could support party X2 and actually have a voice.

As it stands, voters get fucked with a “keep supporting us or you’re letting your enemy win”. I think the above applies to Liberals, Conservatives, whomever.

I just ran into this last night and discovered the solution as well. Unclear why they chose this migration behaviour!

Preventing this oscillation between governments in power is a strong argument in favour of proportional representation. I would far rather have slow shifts in minority governments where we can actually plan and accomplish infrastructure projects instead of this wild “we abandon what the last government didn’t have time to complete” seesaw.

On one hand, the Duras Sisters disprove your point. Then again, “You have manipulated the circumstances with the skill of a Romulan.” Yeeeeaaaahhh… Point taken.

My Steam Deck convinced me to try Linux (Debian) a try for desktop gaming. So long as you install the latest GPU drivers, it’s smooth as butter. I guess what I’m saying is Linux for everything at this point… for those capable of installing drivers from the CLI.

If Denuvo has no negative impact on sales, what’s the need for their recent PR campaign to “rehabilitate their image”? https://feddit.nl/post/22918778

Denuvo is a deal-breaker for me.

And I can refund the game if I don’t like it. And I can see reviews of the game by those who have been vetted as having bought it.

Steam Deck support?

Don’t forget you can ignore publishers.

https://steamcommunity.com/groups/DenuvoGames/curation is also useful.

If the camera really does need to be that thick for lens reasons, couldn’t we at least make the rest of the body bigger with more battery?

Just hold off for now. They might take your money, shut it down, and mandate that you buy “Industrial Annihilation: Titans” for an extra $15.

Its the same “power corrupts” story again and again. Karina Gould gave an impassioned speech on electoral reform (http://www.ourcommons.ca/DocumentViewer/en/42-1/house/sitting-64/hansard#Int-8963139). But after replacing Maryam Monsef as Minister of Democratic Institutions, her views suddenly became far more simplistic. In a 2017 interview on CBC’s Metro Morning, she was asked “Why is it important that people at the very least believe every vote counts?”. She replies “Because they do. … We literally count them: 1, 2, 3, 4, up to the majority that wins.”

In addition, theatres advertise a starting time of X:00, but the movie can sometimes start as late as X:30 after 30 fucking minutes of ads and trailers. That was my previous and last experience in a theatre.

If only https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Paramount_Pictures,_Inc. was expanded to streaming services instead of repealed.

I suspect the difficulty the publishers face is that fun is difficult to quantify. The read on this might end up being “All things being equal, DRM/MTX/etc aren’t statistically impediments to financial success if the game is going to sell well anyway. If we percieve them to improve our bottom line, let’s include them”.
