Not necessarily a bad thing if they can make the prices lower, if most people end up buying cheaper but adequate hardware developers will have an incentive to make their games work with that hardware. We have seen what games with NVidia partnerships ended up with in terms of bugs with ATI GPUs but aren’t those problems less severe now?

The class with a mannequin is really important to experience firsthand. Like to see that you should really start calling the emergency services and put them on speaker after you’ve assessed the situation and before you start CPR. And to know how hard you have to do it. It doesn’t take incredible skill, the modern mannequins will rate your performance, as long as you go fast enough and don’t stop it’s good. I was in shape at the time and I found it easy enough if you use your weight to help, I don’t think I could keep going hard for more than five minutes though.

OP has no ambition, you can buy rolling stock for scrap value quite easily. If you have an insane amount of labour at your disposal you can do most things for a small heritage railroad by hand. The know-how is not secret arcane knowledge. The main issue is that most countries don’t have that many enthusiasts willing to fund those projects. Road subsidies are insanely high but hurr-durr trains are expensive.

Or rest their head near the side curtain airbags. Loads of cars have them now.

If this holds up in court and becomes precedent it will create a lot of people with nothing left to lose with a lot of grudges against these companies. I can’t say I would have any sympathy if executives became targets for heinous acts of violence stemming from such an injustice.

It isn’t a security feature, more like a backdoor checkbox.

This is the team’s YouTube channel. Not a headline.

I don’t care about extra content, it is a welcome addition for games with long-term support like Stardew Valley. If the dev and publisher have a lot of money I do expect long-term bug fixing.

I thought the religious part wasn’t forced or strange considering the real story.

It’s consistent if they depend on copyright law to make money.

My experience with them is you can’t even find the modlog if you look when they remove comments. I guess they don’t federate it and/or it only shows if you’re logged in?

Good incentives to block their instances.

I have had comments removed and could never see why. Now I just block their instances.

They roleplay as communist censors since that’s all they can afford to do from their positions.

No but the red paste is most likely explained by the tanks that were verifiably there. They could have crushed people with other machinery but they had tanks.

Producers sometimes like to include personal references.

I’d rather have that than micro transactions or unfinished games with half of what was promised or less.

I agree, people buy cars like this though, to me modern cars are extremely annoying because of this extreme cost-cutting without any thought put into it. They even lack basic functions like dimming the gauge lights that were standard in the 1980s on cheap cars, or turning off a screen completely and still having the steering wheel controls for the radio… turning off ESP for getting out of slippery places that it gets confused by is also a challenge on a lot of cars.

People have very different priorities from commercial users that need an impeccable safety record and no compromise on reliability, they’re buying a steel box on wheels to get from A to B, preferably in a fashionable shape.

If you’ve ever nearly died because the car decided a reflection was an imminent collision risk and braked hard on the motorway, you know that cars are way worse than Boeing.

Everything is integrated into the computer network for every function… so if you want an old style analog speedometer how analog do you go? Cable on the gearbox (no software, no bugs, no electronics if you choose a mechanical gauge)? Separate sensor near the transmission (basic analog electronics)? Analog readout from the multiplexed network on an electronic gauge?

Cars are already incredibly complicated and expensive to meet current legal requirements.

Separating some of the words with random symbols also isn’t too hard to remember and no chance that can be bruteforced.

This is in NF Z71‐300.

They can stop tracking you, that way they don’t have to ask anything… which is precisely what they don’t want to do and why they complained so much about GDPR. Lucky for them only a handful of European countries give a crap about privacy and actually enforce it in any meaningful way.

uBlock origin has lists to remove a lot of the popups (and blocks most trackers), browsing the Web in 2024 without it is torture.

It isn’t a cookie popup law, that’s the advertising industry’s spin on it. It’s a law against taking personal data without consent and/or for illegitimate purposes (according to the lawmakers). You don’t need a popup for essential cookies.
