I mean, I would still file a complaint with whatever relevant government agency, worst that could happen is that things stay the same I figure.

In the US at least that is very much illegal, though I am going to guess this isn’t in the US.

Nah, the 1st amendment does protect non-citizens as well as citizens.

Technically that’s still on appeal, and tbh I do expect it to get overturned somewhere.

Wait really, they’re adding Red Rescue Team!? Didn’t Nintendo just release the remake of that game recently.

Oh no, it was four years ago, it feels like it was more recent than that.

Please, anyone who reads this, stop posting links to the mobile version of Wikipedia. It doesn’t switch automatically on PC, and I see it happen all the time. Just take the half a second to remove the “.m” from the beginning of the link, save everyone else from the pain of having to be surprised by it and taking the time to do it themselves.

For the record, every game by that dev is incredible. One of them is still being worked on but should be finishing this year, and that one is free.

Quoting whitehouse.gov: “federal courts enjoy the sole power to interpret the law, determine the constitutionality of the law, and apply it to individual cases.” The executive branch contains the police as well as the various other departments that investigate potential crimes and bring actions in court against those that commit said crimes.

Since this is the Internet and this sarcasm doesn’t exist, the serious answer is that the court systems (ideally) do nothing but enforce laws. That is their job, they should be the primary organization doing that job, alongside the police sometimes, and they don’t have any job aside from that.

Tabletop sim might work, depending on attitudes towards tabletop games

Pretty sure early Netflix was competing with outright piracy, so they had to keep their prices down and their service convenient. Actually that is probably the best state for a digital market to be in, where there is a vibrant piracy community keeping companies honest with both their prices and services. Because fuck the law when all it does is fuck me.

Did anyone really expect this part of the policy to stay? My understanding is that they only reinstated the nudity ban, the rest of the new allowances are still allowed.

It helps a lot that that’s revenue and not profit, so it ignores other expenses. Of course, I don’t know how much that matters, but it is still enough to hurt.

There probably are, but Saudi Arabia owns a bunch of land in Arizona and decided it was the perfect place to grow alfalfa, a very water intensive crop. That said, some farming does make some sense even in the desert, since it is almost certainly cheaper to have local produce than to need to import everything from places that have an abundance of water, even if that means building canals to water them.

Because it is maintained by a for profit company and because I believe it defaults to sending back telemetry data to said company, though you can opt out of that. Those are the reasons I’m aware of anyway.

It’s ASCII for bb.

I’ve been going through the Talos Principle, trying to get around to actually beating it. I probably won’t go straight into the sequel though, since I prefer to wait for games to go on sale.

Age of Mythology is one that I very rarely see talked about anywhere, it has a pretty good single player campaign. I also think more people should try out Caesar 3, albeit using one of the more modern fan made patches for reasonable zoom distances and other quality of life features.

There is a kind of precedent for this actually, back in the 90s when Microsoft got dinged for bundling internet explorer with Windows. This feels like it’s basically the same thing.

Modded Minecraft is the best I can think of.
