The Octonaut

The phone company can get your location down to a few dozen feet depending on the number of 4G (50 to 70 metres) and 5G (10-50 metres) towers around.

Donation by definition doesn’t exchange value?

That’s what I meant about Kotaku’s misrepresentation. Read the paragraph you didn’t quote, and they are saying they believe the guy was using multiple accounts. That’s what they mean by “these identities”, which news which isn’t a glorified gossip rag have been pretty clear on.

They are targeting exactly one person that they are in litigation with. I am shocked that Kotaku would misrepresent something in the lede and then contradict themselves later.

However, because Williams allegedly evaded Nintendo’s attempt to serve him, and then didn’t appear in court, Nintendo argues in its filing that this meant they were unable to find these identities through discovery, and as such is seeking the subpoenas. The company, currently worth $67 billion, says these will be “limited in scope,” designed to identify “the account holders and the sources of any payments made, and where applicable, aggregate traffic and access statistics for Pirate Shops’ websites and related online locations.”

TL;DR: Stop trying to make money from piracy. Dolphin is alive and well after 20 years of emulating Nintendo products. Not sure how people aren’t connecting the dots with what Nintendo chase and what they don’t.

Are you using Google’s DNS?

Yeah, no Tim, nobody’s ever sung a song about getting to Cupertino

Agile is explicitly a way for a team to be self-organising. What benefit do you get from it as a solo developer?

We call them current accounts, apparently.

What the fuck is a checking account

lol.

What in the history of electronic entertainment makes you think that they’re done with doing the shitty thing now that they stopped doing it once?

You’re talking about American presidential candidates?

If I remember correctly, yes. There was a pain in the ass a few years ago when Firefox switched from their own add-on system to one that matched Chrome’s, despite Firefox’s being more powerful and mature. The goal was to make it easier to port Chromes (arguably) greater variety of add-ons to Firefox.

It was an unpopular decision and it was the start of a downward decline for Firefox. People that had their browser “just the way I like it” found themselves starting fresh essentially, and without some of their favourite add-ons.

The number of people that do this is not going to even remotely shift the usage share percentage.

While it’s nice to have a development team that doesn’t have to chase every single possible dollar, and they might go on to make something even better, that final 10% part isn’t true.

With the game engine itself now finished, tested by millions of people, a huge amount of work has been done that feels wasted. Putting content into a game engine not only isn’t the hardest part (maybe is the most creative part, which can be… hard) but also is usually different people than the ones that create the engine. The engine itself literally has the content split such that another story can be dropped into it.

Maybe mods can pick that up if the process of adding a story get documented?

Maybe their next game will use the same engine, probably with tweaks if some of it is D&D fixated. So maybe rather than make a new D&D game they are starting from 70% into an un-chained RPG game. As an audience it is possible to be both disappointed by the decision not to create more of a thing we love and understanding and supportive of it at the same time. Music fans deal with this all the time. They’ve obviously earned a lot of trust.

“Rust Belt” isn’t literal, it refers to an area of the US where industrial manufacturing declined significant in the second half of the 20th century. It’s called that in part at least because its previous moniker was “Steel Belt”.

Well apart from how tired the “this thing is bad, this thing is good” meme format is, I think there are credible allegations of grooming?

Proper nouns are names.

… Yes? And for the full points, what is a noun?

Proper nouns are, in fact, words.

Man they really don’t teach you guys basic English.

My friend, Americans do not care about how words are pronounced in the original language/location.

Oh man you’re going to love revisiting this post this time next year. Smile for the screenshot!
