Didn’t the baby spiders fly away at the end of Charlottes Web?

₹240,000. That’s like less than $3,000 US.

In 2005 they would have just taken your data without asking.

While that’s definitely true it’s not like there are any streaming platforms paying artists what they actually deserve. Other streaming services do payout slightly more per stream but they also don’t have the number of paying users Spotify has. So you’re likely going to make more off of spotify than any other service even if they do payout less per stream.

Not defending spotify though. Them and the record labels are absolute scum. Just making the point that if you want artists to benefit from you listening to their music just buy their music outright. Or go see them live if you can. Don’t stream it. Because streaming pays basically nothing no matter where you stream it from.

Yeah, that’s just what Netflix does. They cancel shows. I’m skeptical that the cancelation decision was made because of gaiman’s allegations. If it was I don’t see how continuing production on season 2 after the fact makes any sense.

Doesn’t season 2 of the sandman come out in a couple weeks? Doesnt really seem like he’s being boycotted.

Truman Show. Carey is the non Muppet. Or maybe his “best friend” that might be funnier.

Ah, that makes sense. I can understand being hesitant to pay money for something when valve says they’re not sure about a game. But honestly, the verified system is practically worthless at this point. Checking ProtonDB instead usually gives me more accurate info on a game’s compatibility and people will often provide fixes for games that don’t work perfectly out of the box.

Regardless, happy sailing my man. 🏴‍☠️

Interesting, what issue are you having on steam deck? I didn’t have any problems on my deck when I played it a handful of months ago. There was just a stupid issue where Ubisoft made me sign into the launcher every time I wanted to play. There was an offline workaround though that worked fine I found on protondb. After that I was able to lock it to 40 with some settings tweaks. Played great.

Why remake it though? It’s not THAT old. And it’s not like Ubisoft games look substantially better now than they did back then. Black Flag is probably the AC game from the older AC games that holds up the best. The water specifically from that game is still impressive today and the pirate ship battles have still never gotten better than that.

Yeah. Not a process trump is familiar with. He thinks stealing music and playing it without permission at a public event is the proper way to go about these things.

I used to work as a teller at a bank and at one point some higher up sent out an email to the branches talking about how great Chick Fil A’s customer service was and asking branch reps to brainstorm ways we could incorporate chick fil a’s policies into our own to improve the customer experience. I sent a long email explaining why I believed their customer service was insincere, overrated, and culty and why I believed it would be a bad idea to do anything to emulate their experience since people who come to banks don’t want to feel like theyre in a fast food restaurant.

A month later I had a raise and a new position in the customer service team. Sometimes speaking your mind can benefit you.

Though, quick disclaimer: I’m a cisgendered tall white dude. My experience is likely not indicative of someone else’s.

Then Elon is going to tweet out some nonsense misrepresenting the report just like he did with their report they put out last September showing mishandled government spending to the tune of 2.3 trillion dollars between 2003 and 2023. (He first lied and said doge found the mishandled payments when they didn’t. And also said the full 2.3 trillion were Medicaid payments to individuals outside the US. Which was just a blatant fabrication)

Says they dislike trump more than Democrats do then proceeds to explain why they don’t dislike trump more than Democrats do.

That checks out.

This is only “baffling” if you’re a total fucking moron who hasn’t been paying attention.

If people these days don’t know what rollercoaster tycoon is I’m going to start feeling way more old than I already do.

Until I can run special K or RTX HDR to inject HDR into games that don’t support it I’m not going to switch to Linux on my main gaming PC. Its hooked up to my Nice OLED TV in my living room and games look too damn good with HDR to give that up for Linux. Yes I know HDR works on Linux now. But it only works with games that support HDR and the only “Auto HDR” solution I’ve found is a janky reshade plugin that only works with dx11 games and doesn’t really produce very good results. I’m really holding out hope that valve figures out a nice auto HDR solution they can build into gamescope.

Your political beliefs are not a protected group. Y’all can go fuck yourselves.

Totally going to be a rebranded MSI Claw mark my words.
