Have strong opinions, but welcome all civil discussions.

Still can. CNN and other television networks will be split into a separate company as Netflix is not interested in that part of the business. That company will be put for sale as soon as the deal finalizes.

Bribes need to be paid in advance.

As long as it doesn’t have a camera, no. But all of them do, so yes.


Have you looked at the HDMI Forum member list and board of directors?
It includes pretty much every manufacturer who makes decisions which ports to include on their devices. They have no interest in DisplayPort adoption.


Greed.

Corruption example number I lost count.


To make a distinction that I’m not painting all players with the same brush, but instead talking about the loudest part of players who love to complain and then do the opposite of what they are complaining about.


Individual players are welcome to play whatever they want, I’m talking about game company’s behaviour and gamer culture at large.


Per EA, only 1.5% of Battlefield 6 players are currently having issues with activating the security measure.
Which doesn’t include people who will never buy the game because of the Secure Boot requirement in the first place. That said, “gamers” are known to suckers so it’s not surprising that players complain while bending over and taking it.


Coding language for the game engine is directly related to the game performance. Whether most people know about different engines or care about them is not that relevant as it is being disclosed already. But if nobody has an issue with disclosing that which most people might not care about then it really shouldn’t be an isuse to disclose LLM usage which we know a lot of people care about since it has the same or similar considerations as game engine just for a lot more people.


They don’t list whether the game was written in c++ or c# because it makes no difference.
Sure they do. That’s what game engine disclosure does.


I guess the situation is a bit better since their 2024 overhaul, but it’s mostly limited to indie devs not like before demos were used by every single studio and publisher as a marketing tool to allow people actually playtest the game not only to see if the game is interesting but also it’s performance on your machine.
itch.io still beats Steam into ground in this area.


And the disclosure wouldn’t change anything for those that do research for their purchaces outside the store page, but it would have an impact on people that don’t.


Which demos? Those are long dead on Steam. Demos are now basically paid early access releases…
It’s one of the quality indicators. Just like the game engine. E.g. I know Bethesda games will have shit performance and be bug ridden because they use Creation Engine.


I look at it the same way I look at game engines. It’s a tool, which if used in the production of the game should be disclosed and let people decide if they want to buy that product or not.

Democrats and losing.

Almost every Democrat that is not owned by healthcare industry did campaign on it, but admittedly that is not that many people as of yet. One exception being Elizabeth Warren who used to support it at the start of her presidiandial run and later had “strategic retreat” whatever that means. Now she’s back to supporting it.
It’s above 60% approval issue for US voters. Only sellout or a moron wouldn’t run on it.
It’s dual scheme. One payment is directly to the dear leader for express approval and then secondary payments in a form of producing content he wants and firing people he dislikes.
