Advanced purchasers get access to a special gamestate: “Fucked”.

Depends on where you live, I suppose. Where I am, you can’t have someone hook up their phone to a bluetooth speaking to play the world’s most tame Spotify playlist but they will absolutely have the radio on at all times.

“This is Lars Ulrich, the drummer of Metallica. This month he was planning to install a gold plated shark tank bar beside his pool, but thanks to people like you downloading his music, he must now wait a few months before he can afford it.”

But seriously, why do they even bother with labels then?

Labels provide the upfront capital for things like recording studios, distribution (traditionally, less so nowadays when there’s not a physical product to distribute), publicity, marketing, live shows, etc in exchange for a percentage and usually with a contract that the artist will make X many albums with them.

Although things are slowly changing, you are unlikely to be doing huge tours at sold out venues and getting your songs played on the radio unless you have the substantial money to do so in the first place.

It’s unacceptable for games from big studios to be released in such a shoddy state. At this point, the best bet as a consumer is to wait 3 months before buying anything.

Picked up the Indiana Jones game which is actually pretty fun. Also been trying to get into playing Total War: Warhammer 2 but a lot of it feels like an exercise in frustration (I might just not be very good at it).

They could be referring to those weird features in Win11 where it records what you type and takes periodic screenshots.

Have you tried gaming on a plane before?

Yeah, it’s why I asked lol

Eternal Darkness never gets the love it rightfully deserves.

Can’t believe I forgot about Picross!

FFT was a maybe for the list along with Fire Emblem 6 & 7 so it may get promoted up

Fire suggestions ngl

I doubt it would have changed anything.

On her most popular Telegram channel she has issued “decrees” to absolve her more than 36,000 followers from bills and debts.

That has resulted in followers losing their homes, cars and possessions, according to Christine Sarteschi, a professor at Chatham University in Pittsburgh and an expert on extremism and the sovereign citizen movement - a broad collection of anti-government groups who evade taxes and make up their own fake legal systems.

Does anyone have any news reports etc of those clowns getting sentenced or losing their possessions? I deal with them on the daily and being able to show them something which demonstrates that they’re being scammed would be a great help.

These men are more than powerful enough to go against Trump

They would lick Trump’s feet clean if it meant they could keep their billions.

This is why I keep asking people how to find good indie games which have flown under the radar because they haven’t gone viral but it genuinely feels like the people who seemingly do this regularly are either gatekeeping how they find them or are just full of shit.

I keep seeing this sentiment and I have to ask - did you play any new weapons at all?

Back when I was a teenager, I put something like 12,500 hours into one character in an MMO. I had six or so total characters.

Blackmail can be very lucrative.

I got accepted for a new job shortly after interviewing which was great but I still haven’t been able to start. It turns out that the finance department of where I want to be doesn’t have the funds approved for my salary. I’ve spoken with various people there where they’ve confirmed that they’re desperate for me to start ASAP and they are pestering the finance team to just release the fucking funds already but it makes me feel constantly on edge, like somehow the whole process was a lie and there is no job (which is ridiculous and untrue). I just want to be able to start so I can tell my current boss to fuck off.
