Sierra entertainment! I was a big fan of the kings quest games, and Sierra online was my first experience with online gaming.

Why are they worse?
Every significant organisation, government, big company probably had done something terrible at some point.
Yup, which is why it’s basically impossible to be an ethical consumer these days. “The Good Place” did a really entertaining exploration of this idea.
While this is an interesting read, this doesn’t appear to be the case:
Every .io domain you buy funds a government committing crimes against humanity.
The .io TLD wikipedia article claims that it has always been operated by private entities and no revenue is shared with the United Kingdom
How long until YT is totally paywalled?
Probably never. I doubt they could offset ad revenue with subscription fees.
I assume the replicator still requires raw materials. Rare metals are likely still rare in the future
I think using mods disables achievements for cyberpunk, so that could bias the numbers. I don’t know how many people are actually using mods though.
I was curious about their office in France and found the Google listing is full of tech support questions.
Wasn’t that the whole point of the creation of Alphabet? That they’d have different business units with their own products?
I’ve been playing IdleOn for a few months now, but since I’ve been traveling for the last week I’ve been using my phone instead of the computer. The UI could be more finger-friendly, but it’s handy to be able to do some of the daily stuff without too much trouble
There’s one dialogue in the Githyanki creche where your entire party is instantly killed if you choose the “wrong” option. There’s nothing to indicate that the choice will lead to that outcome. I’m not aware of any other dialogues like that, however.
So you want Epson to provide you with a separately application which runs in the background to tell you when to update? Why split the responsibility?
I’m suspicious. WoW added quality to crafting recently and it kind of sucks. This looks like a much more thoughtful approach, but I’m still skeptical that it will actually be fun and not a headache.
The only game I’ve played where encumbrance is interesting is Death Stranding. In everything else it’s just a nuisance.
Death Stranding makes the player think about how to walk over difficult terrain with a large amount of cargo on their back without losing their balance and falling down. Most games allow you to run as far and recklessly as you want without having to worry about falling, so it was interesting to actually have to work at it, at least before you unlock various modes of transportation.
I’m tired of hearing about this game already.

How fast do you need your phone to be for sending messages, streaming video, or browsing the web? Every phone made in the last decade can do these things.
no headphone plug
This used to be something I cared about until I found a bluetooth headset I really like. Going wireless is fantastic, in my opinion.
Teams definitely feels bloated, but having used it for years at my lost job, I can’t say I ever found it buggy. The only issue I ever had with it was actually with my bluetooth headset sometimes not being recognized, but it was never clear if that was an issue with Teams, or Windows, or the headset itself.
The Outlook integration for planning and joining meetings was super handy. If there was some way to get email in Teams then I never would have had to open Outlook again. That would have been nice.
I think the features need a lot of refinement, though. Having threaded and non-threaded chats is clumsy at best. I found the threaded chats to be far inferior, and the inability to search for non-threaded chats was very limiting. Search in general was borderline useless.
Exactly. I use 10 at home and at work and have no issues with either. There’s no technical reason for anyone to upgrade.
