  • That was not the point. The point is that Factorio is in a similar level of quality. That is the top one. If you believe that 3X€ is too expensive for a top game, then you are saying that every game out there that is >30€ is overpriced.

    If you believe that, you are honestly way out of touch with reality. 30€ is on the low side of a price for a game. Most AAA games are >60€.



  • The X just sends a signal to your application. If you ignore that signal, it will just do nothing.

    That signal tells your application to clean itself. Maybe the changed how that “cleaning itself” worked, in a way that lead to actually ignoring the signal all together.

    The thing is easy to break. The question is how that even got past QA testing. Or even just any other dev testing.

    A single person launching the program and trying to close it should see the bug.







  • Why would they lie about that? If they truly are laying people off because of AI, they could say so and get a boost in investment since everyone seems to be investing in “AI companies”.

    They could also just hide the fact that their cash cow (Fortnite) is not infinite.

    Instead, they told actual reason that make actual sense for laying people off.

    Of course, they probably have way more than enough money to pay those 1000 people. And you could critizise them for that instead.


  • I don’t understand how asking that question to “my politicians” would achieve anything.

    “My politicians” are not arguing that prices increasing by a bit makes it okay for prices to increase by a lot. I’d argue that most of them would say that a little bit of inflation is good for the economy while hyperinflation is bad. Which I interpret as them knowing that “a little” is not the same as “a lot”. Which the above commenter doesn’t seem to know. Or at least knows only when it is convenient. Schrodinger’s knowledge perhaps.
