I mean, I wouldn't buy into a decade old ecosystem either if I hadn't already. But by that logic, there is less games on my WiFi router than on the Xbox. Same form factor after all.
Form factor is a hardware design aspect that defines and prescribes the size, shape, and other physical specifications of components, particularly in electronics.[1][2] A form factor may represent a broad class of similarly sized components, or it may prescribe a specific standard. It may also define an entire system, as in a computer form factor.
I don't think it's bosses actually. I think this is the runaway click bait machine of "business outlets" trying to recapture the unexpected success of the whole "quiet quitting" thing they celebrated themselves for reinventing. "Stille Kündigung" is the literal translation for quiet quitting in German and it has been around for years, referring to an employee who has already decided that they wanna quit and mentally cut all ties to their jobs but haven't acted on this yet. But even in Germany, the business media kept yapping about 'quiet quitting ' as if it was something new and something to be afraid of...
It's just the right mix of compliment and insult to cause the right amount of confusion: Not enough to drive you to do something about it, but enough to have it inside your head rent-free for the rest of the week.
Am I the only one who finds it super annoying, that "detection through sound waves" (Sonar) does video things while "detection through light" (lidar) does the sound things?
What the cat says: You. Stinky human. You will take me with you to your house. You will feed me and you will obey. If you are a good servant, I may be inclined to allow one touch on my belly. If you dare to linger on my belly, though, I will smite you with the wrath of itchy scratches!
What the human heras: Meeoow.
Human: Aww, Little guy, come with me!
Furthermore, I don't trust Microsoft to not do a gigantic oopsie and introduce a bug that emails screenshots of porn websites I visited to my Mum or some shit. Their QC is abhorrent.
The bug was well documented and we own the git platform it was written on, but hey, we ain't got time for that. Too busy implementing new menus that look worse and do less than the old ones so we have to keep the old ones around anyway.
You need to toake into account that we're talking about a Kirby game here, which are all 2/2.5/sometimes 3D platformers. So The real effect of Dolby in such a thing would have been close to zero.
oh, it was the racing game? I must have gone through the text too quickly then. Yet, if we're pragmatic: How many people would have really enjoyed that game (which wasn't stellar to begin with) more with properly encoded surround sound, and how many would have enjoyed it a tad less because of the annoying logo spam on startup? I don't think Surround-Sound-enjoyers were the target audience for that one.
I got the impression that “removing” means removing before it was really implemented. Like, it was planned and decided upon, but it wasn't ready. He checked the license and went “nope, not having it” and scrapped the feature. It doesn't truly become clear in the text, of course, but that's how I read this.
Publishers will like a database because it can be modified. If they were forced to implement such a system (thus abandoning all 'sell the same game to the same person twice' for different platforms), they'd oppose a blockchain system hard, since it would make it pricier to:
a) publish seven bazillion versions of any given game
b) revoke ownership of games just because it's cheaper to do that than honor the deal they made with customers
c) correct any data-fuckups they will inevitably make because they went for the cheapest route possible to implement this, and it went pear-shaped from day 3 onwards
I'm very much on the database-side here as well. I work for a Telco company here in Germany, and we use several such databases that are regulated by external bodies and government agencies to communicate between carriers (for number porting and such). Works great overall.
Oh come on, not everything said or done has a socioeconomic impact that's relevant in any way, shape or form and not everything needs to have one.
Not every joke one makes "trivializes" something hidden, no matter if one could find something it could "trivialize". Not every post has to be a message to better this world.
Sometimes, one needs to laugh at the weird shit that happens around all of us or we'll go depressed and crazy and bitter. Something you are moving towards already, tbf.
Nonono! You've gotten this all wrong! Technically speaking, it is recyclable. If you take each individual piece and treat it individually so you can separate all the different layers we glued onto each other from one another, that is. I mean, we could have just used one type of polymer, but then our package would have been 3.45% less shiny than that of the competition, We had a call about this. We all agreed that that's unacceptable, right? So all is tres bueno! Right?... Right?
They dodge depression by doing something that brings joy to their hearts instead of constantly complaining about how depressed they are and how therapy is essential for everyone these days? How dare they!
