I think Poland is tracking a couple of years ahead of those of us further west, so it’s useful for us to see how you resolve the damage the right wing populists have caused. I think many of us will face the same problem in the future.

Good luck guys.

Personally, I was fine with paying for “Premium Lite”, which was reasonably priced, removed ads, and gave channels you watched some revenue.

But youtube removed this subscription tier a few weeks ago, leaving only the twice as expensive “Premium”. Since I, and I assume most others who subscribed to “Premium Lite”, has no use for the other stuff included in the more expensive tier the cost is no longer justified for me. Back to finding increasingly exotic ways of getting around their ads I guess.

Yeah, this is exactly where I’m at.

A large part of the reason I want higher framerates in the first place is that I want lower latency.

Higher framerates that actually make latency worse make no sense to me.

He’s sticking to what he knows.

Yeah, people speculated that this was coming.

Also, why the hell do they own bandcamp, lol.

Man I just want to actually be able to buy a Pi 4 at non-scalper rates.

Yeah, I think it’s pretty likely that the only reason Unreals terms are sustainable at all at this point is that they are funded by vertical integration using Epics infinite Fortnite coffers. Unity has no such safety harness, and has to squeeze everyone for as much money as possible to be profitable. The moment all of Epics deranged fake consumer rights activist PR starts working and devs and customers actually get locked into their ecosystem at scale they will start tightening the screws on everyone.

Yeah, not surprised. Industry consolidation sucks in general, but Embracer specifically always felt like it was way overextending. Their bizarre acquisition spree was always going to end badly.
