Eh, Overwatch was good for a while. So 4-6 years ago, maybe

I think the ideal is to have 3 buttons - “Save”, “Quit”, and “Save & Quit”

Doesn’t play protect just keep you from installing malware? I have issues with Google the same as everyone else. That being said, I feel like it makes sense to protect old people from getting a call with step by step instructions to install malware. It seems to me that it would take a sufficiently advanced user to be justified in wanting to disable Play Protect. In that case, they’re advanced enough that they don’t need to receive instructions over the phone and can say “I’ll call you back after I finish this”

It’d be worse if the crypto bros got their way and all that shit was stored on a blockchain where it’s 1000x harder to undo

If they didn’t get you already, message me your steam code

New game: Deadlock
Expansion/Update: Factorio

The target use case for incognito mode is to prevent the device from saving your activity during the browsing session through things like cookies and history. To that end, incognito also blocks it to prevent other apps from saving your activity through screen recordings or screenshots.

If I remember right, the first Tomb Raider (at least before the remaster) was shipped with DOSBox to be about to run.

You can’t just pop a cartridge in or head to the eShop and download it. Most people don’t want to research and figure out emulators.

And Deadlock is taking off. It “launched” (if you can call it that) sometime between when Concord released and when Concord was retracted.

Vindicta at the bottom makes sense. I don’t necessarily think she’s bad, but so many people think they can snipe when they can’t.

I’m not really a MOBA person either but I’m really getting into it. Idk, something about the Overwatch type vibes really drags me in.

Enemies are bullet sponges too.

That’s kind of intentional and part of the design of MOBAs.

In the early game, this makes it difficult to get kills unless the enemy makes a mistake. You want players to have to choose between spending their time harassing their opposing player or farming minions.

Later on, the bullet sponge effect makes for longer, more interesting fights. That can end up, being not the case, though, if the economy is too one-sided. That’s another reason for the bullet sponge design - to make the economy more important. That’s how many souls you collect. Buying more means you’re stronger with items and the fights are more in your favor.

So, essentially, the bullet sponge amplifies the more interesting/complex elements of the game. They wouldn’t really be possible if you could just one-hit your opponent from base level.

“fine” is a bit generous there

Slo-mo guys just show up with a fat stack of hundos

I think I backed this Kickstarter when I was in high school. I’ve been out of college for 6 years.

I’m underutilizing my rig tbh. I’ve been playing primarily Factorio for the past few years. My monthly game spending is low. Tempted to get a steam deck for mobile Factorio with mods, though.

They were still supporting that? I’m surprised. I would’ve thought it would’ve been dropped when Microsoft did, or when Steam did, or when Google did, or…

Eh, that seems enough time to learn enough to complete SE if you’re the type to go for the challenge

I mean, “spaz” as an insult is generally regarded as offensive to people with disabilities that cause muscle spasms. Even if it’s “spasm”, I can see where the offensiveness angle makes sense.

The members are the union, though? So the union is managing the fund and deciding when it’s necessary through this vote.

Different people have different priorities. Sure, pay and benefits is a factor that just about everyone considers. The difference lies in the weight that factor holds for them compared to other factors such as a genuine enjoyment from their work, wishing to avoid taking from the strike fund, or any other factor that matters to them.

For most people, the consideration works out in favor of a strike. In a large enough population, though, it won’t for some people. 95%+ is really good. Let’s take it and not alienate those that didn’t vote for it. That leads to attrition of the union.

It seems like any time I consider giving iOS a chance, I hear about some basic thing where I’m like “Wait, it can’t do that?” So until that stops happening, I’m sticking with Android.
