That could be the preface to internet overall…

Sure do :( Even professionally I remember times where accountability meant something and it was not diluted across 20 parties. Fucking shame.

Exactly. It only takes one printed picking list not shredded correctly and some asshole dumpster diving and there it goes. Or a wrongly formatted mail recipient… so many ways for humans to fail it’s funny to always see security reduced to technical measures.

Nothing. It’s just a game of chance at this stage given how many intermediaries are necessary between where you order something and who needs to know where to deliver it. Each step in that long ass process can eventually fail. It takes one to get your information out - and in this case it’s not like you can move or change your name as a measure compared to when some online only service fails you.

At some point they should have gotten the vibe from the delicious bbq smell…

I’m not sure how to position myself when a court orders a company to adapt their software in such specific ways. At the very least that should be a matter of a legislation with a broader analysis and considerations applied to the whole sector. Plus, maybe, consider parenting in the picture… Teenagers should maybe not be looking a notifications during the night.

Objectively to a large extent yes. There’s the family thingy where you can share games with a limited audience in steam but you can’t « re-key » a game to resell a key. That would be a wonderful feature…

Innovative mechanics are generally where indies are shining though.

I’m not arguing that some AAA don’t have merits either in play time or other but from a euro per minute of pleasure overall they are not as good as indie games these last 10 or so years.

€30 vs €80 and I can play it hundreds of hours. Is that so hard of an equation ?

Hold on a minute… the field of AI and in general algorithms and models is quite old. LLM is relatively new in there. For science and healthcare we’ve been using specialist ai for a long while for things like image processing, sequencing and what’s not. Those are absolutely monitored have have generally high standards because they are healthcare related already. Don’t mix those things.

Both because it’s more safe and secure. Plus I have very fond memories of LAN parties and without private servers and local multiplayer kids won’t be able to experience that :(

Having the possibility to setup a server allowed me to setup one for my sons and I. I’d rather have that then them going online…

Yeaaahhhhhhhh

Cool this will only encourage Europe / China & other players to up their game…

Let’s wait to see the perfs? From my understanding of the specs I don’t regret building my new pc earlier this year.

I don’t doubt I’d get the brain to handle the load or die trying… Somehow the dedication in UO felt more rewarding than current systems. Lemme do 1000000 potions to level alchemy and bake 100000 breads… it was so open.

Ultimate online is still by far the game where I have my fondest memories. I could really go for another round of that…

Crazy to see that you feel the need to downvote my answer…

I have two… I kind of see… I’m not claiming expertise but « matey » isn’t on his first trip…

YouTube too? There’s an abundance of tutorials over there…
