I would like to remind everyone that Crunchyroll is owned by Sony, which has done a generally terrible job at preventing and managing data breaches for decades now

The link leads to an error 404.

You can use a prepaid visa to buy account credits

Have you tried doing specifically that and/or do they claim you can do specifically that? I tried doing the same thing when making a Tuta account and it wouldn’t accept prepaid cards, though they do have a 3rd party source you can pay cash or Monero for gift card codes, giving true anonymity

but it’s not the biggest hassle to convert from monero to bitcoin for a purchase.

I think the issue is that Bitcoin hasn’t been anonymous for a few years now (unlike Monero).

I have a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that Ivan the Terrible posed/modelled for the painting that depicted the evebt

Warframe makes a point of making everything earnable in game, always.

Well… There is one famous exception to that (Excalibur Prime), but that’s because the people who got it literally saved the company from tanking

Plus the bard is able to continually give that bonus in PF2E and it just works. I can’t tell you how many times I gave out inspiration dice in 5e only for the player to either forget it or bank it like it was wheels of cheese in Skyrim, only to be wasted with the end of yhe encounter.

5e bards suck. PF2E bards are awesome, and easily the one of most useful choices for a party of 5+ players

The epstein files have proven that conspiracy theories are true.

So the Earth really is flat and run by lizard people?

Be careful with your wording. Yes, some conspiracy theories are true to some degree. But there’s also ones that are complete bunk.

The difference between Apple and Signal is that Signal is open source, making the code available for anyone to audit and verify uts claims.

unless they start to sell their products in California

Good thing it’s free software

Palworld weren’t forced to make those changes. They did it to avoid injunctions from stopping sales during the precedings.

Also, the majority of the cases are still ongoing. Both in the US and in Japan

And, somehow, fucking won.

No, they haven’t won a single patent case yet. And there’s still ball throwing in the game, but only for captures. The summoning via ball throwing was removed so that Nintendo couldn’t file an injuction against Pocketpair to stop their sales during the case.

If Pocketpair wins the court cases, they can undo the removals.

Don’t forget that these patents (or modifications of existing patents) were made after Palworld released.

Nintendo and their lawyers are scumbags

They also tried to patent riding monsters as well, which is insane seeing that horseriding had been a thing for millenia

Fuck off with this. If Palworld ripped off Pokemon, then Pokemon ripped off Dragon Quest

Quit licking corpo boots

Most pals are “legally distinct” monsters

Fuck off which this. Pokemon pulled the same shit when they copied Dragon Quest with the first games

Pokemon has that copyrighted or something.

Patented, which is even dumber

Nah, that’s something you just add in a post-credits clip. You don’t base half an episode on it

And 28 isn’t old enough to occupy “most devs”.

It’s not an issue if age, it’s an issue of reading comprehension

Ah, you’re one of the Linux gatekeepers. You’re not worth bothering with anymore. Tah tah

Unfortunately, a lot of dev studios tend to just build their games on the highest end systems they can and don’t bother checking for lower-end hardware. For a lot of systems, there’s plenty of programs that don’t run “good enough”. And sometimes I’ll even have issies with M$ applications on decent workstation hardware. Notes and Teams are frustratingly slow to work with sometimes

Ethanol is also used in food

It’s the alcohol in drinks, and that’s about it. Ethanol for fuel is not made in the same facilities as beer and whiskey. And as a whiskey fan, we probably shouldn’t encourage drinking anyways.

and as a disinfectant.

While it can be (vodka is great for keeping wool clean), it generally isn’t. You’re thinking of isopropanol (aka isopropyl alcohol), which evaporates later in the distillation process (eg the “tail”)
