Spell check? Yeah fair enough. The misspelling has historical value now though so I have to keep it in :P


Literally not how any of this works. You don’t let AI check your work, at best you use AI and check it’s work, and at worst you have to do everything by hand anyway.



I mean it’s definitely gonna be entertaining, but I’ll watch that embarrassment from afar.


That’s funny I just switched from Spotify to Deezer.

NGL the offline download sucks takes forever and drops out every now and again, so you kind of have to babysit.

And also some things are just not as convenient and some things are missing.

But yeah for now it’s the best alternative that I have.


Well when I tried it it sucked. It’s solid for replacing Premiere Pro but AfterFX has some different functions that davinci Resolve just doesn’t offer out of the box. I had a real bad day trying to build an audio reactor. I actually tried installing reactor for like 3 days and alternatively get familiar with the scripting API. I had to give up because it started to eat into my daily schedule.



  • VST / full plugin support Ableton or FL support (I’m sorry but they are just way easier to use and that’s kind of important for casual users)
  • AfterFX support or feasible alternative
  • better audio interface drivers
  • easier firewall like net limiter
  • generelly making some more things controllable in an interface rather than only the terminal

I am not comfortable giving up my whole music production trajectory just because.


I agree with the other comments. “Should” kind of frames this as a necessity. It’s not - no one gets to dictate what’s in the game except for the developers. But I will have a hard time without a clean PvE mode, especially if the game wants to be both PvE and PvP.

Why? Because in PvE you are dependent on the community of the game. And sometimes it’s great, but sometimes it can really suck the fun out of a game. Having the option to chill and not interact with anyone can be great of you don’t wanna gamble on the community, especially when you wanna play to decompress after a work day.



I don’t wanna downvote this because I don’t like the game, not OP.

And in that sense, f#ck call of duty.


And it’s not even like it does anything. People who think it’s important to talk about the topic regardless will just replace the word. Doesn’t take a genius to understand that this does not remedy the heaviness of the topic in any way, so essentially it just makes it sound like explaining world war 2 in Mickey mouse language. It makes a joke out of the topic, that’s what it does. YouTube is making a joke out of those topics.


And on no-no words like r*pe. I wanna watch court cases to learn something but lawtube is getting fucked by these inconsistent restrictions. I get that kids shouldn’t watch everything but banning words to force this is not working at all. See Roblox or the countless Minecraft YouTubers involved in ‘bad things’.


Yeah monopolistic behavior is bad but these are the worst facts if you wanna raise that. I see their PR team has been overcooking that one a bit.


From what I’ve heard it’s just really clear copyright infringement.

Raising monopoly is also funny considering this genre is saturated by not only Sony, but also Ubisoft, EA, Valve, …



I don’t doubt this but now I’m really curious about the numbers. Is it the same on PC? How do women’s experience compare to other genders in similar surveys?


The only AAA game I could see pulling some traffic again is battlefield 6. And even that one’s a gamble - but so far open beta was surprisingly good.


Worst case, buy a second copy for your cat, she deserves it :)


I like Linus Torvalds. Yes, sometimes he can be cruel, but that’s because he cares a lot about his projects, and managing open source software means you have to be blunt sometimes.

So you are posting in the technology community that you don’t like Linus Torvalds. This is the wrong community and you are being a real asshole. I’m here for interesting articles and not personal beef. Please keep this to yourself or to a community that allows such posts.


Yeah unlike other big companies, Valve still has some trust to rely on. Let’s wait for what they’re saying and doing first.

Also, the quickest path to success will always be to reignin the payment processors. Which should be a no-brainer anyway; they should have no influence on content decisions.


Honestly I’m really happy with how itch.io is handling it. Making sure they still get their money, but quickly reintroducing the games, and telling us the exact reason why they had to disable those games in the first place. Great management.



Well the price is $80+. GAMES with higher prices tend to do poorly a lot of the time. Additionally, this is a multiplayer game, so less people buying for the high price also means lobbies might be more on the empty side, which takes away the fun. And then there is also an argument that high prices cover a lower expectation of sales. Although this one might be my naivity about causality.

They talk about the game in abstract terms, and in a way where the hype seems to be more important than the content of the game. Which to me is always a bad sign. If the game is good, why not talk about specifically what the must fun parts were for you?

And even the leak itself suggests at least one person knows the price is a bad look for the content. So that person who has insight, knows it sounds bad. I will boldly infer, that that’s because it’s not worth $80. Which makes it also very probable that it’s far less than even a “moderate” $60, I can’t believe I’m saying this because that’s still an unbelievably high sum of money for a game.

And with all these points remember, battlefield does not have the best track record, so only some of these details indicating a fishy smell will sound the alarm and make me reconsider buying. I don’t have enough trust to extend towards games published under EA, for obviously reason.


It is quite clear to me. Here is an EU initiative which is looking for input from EU citizens on digital fairness and a lot of people have already mentioned this. If you are an EU citizen I highly recommend you do the same.

Now for Canada or the US, I assume it would be piggybacking onto a similar campaign that aims to introduce legislation through lobbying with representatives. However I do not feel qualified to speak on the process given the complexity and the amount of different jurisdictions possibly at play.



Everything makes me think this one is silly

  • the price
  • the leaks
  • the development cycle
  • the way they talk about it
  • the publisher
  • the previous games

And I’m saying this as a former battlefield fan, they’ve thoroughly run the series into the ground. It’s genuinely impressive, it’s not even lucrative anymore I don’t think.


Now I really wanna know if that’s actually the best advice or sexism. Because I could see that our society might be so bad that this is genuinely good advice.


There’s also a threshold where Industry Groups will start astroturfing. Especially when it comes to worker’s rights or consumer’s rights.


Guys wtf. You are all angry about something the court literally addresses in his ruling. Please always read the full rulings.

That is so stupid it makes me mad.

WotC and Hasbro are truly the Dalton’s of tabletop gaming.


NGL giving them lots of grace, I can still see this being one employee lifting things and getting away with it. Ofc this is extending a whole olive tree to Bungie, but it’s still possible.

That said, there is a pattern suggesting at least someone has done this intentionally and managed to not get fired for it for quite a while and that’s very poor management. If it happened once, I could even see a stern talk, but if they’re not fired the second time they do it, that’s on management and on the whole company.

I’m, so sorry for the other artists and devs working on this game who basically get all of their work undermined by party fouls from someone else.


Lots of love for Starbound, that game is underrated af.


It has “safe seas” now iirc


  • Periodically killing mods and fan projects
  • going after palworld
  • using last-gen hardware in their consoles
  • never decreasing prices

It’s about the dangers of misuse of AI too. That’s pretty on point I would think.




This game is beautiful.

I remember when I played it the first time, I sat on the ship, fishing, and I realized how the water changes colors with the weather, and it was the prettiest game I’ve seen, and I was just in awe. I never had that with any other game.

If the gameplay was a bit more complex, I would’ve spent years in this game I’m sure.
