Amazing when done right like Diablo II or Minecraft !
We really need a new version
Maybe it says more about me than about game pass, but even at 5€ a month it would be significantly more money than I spend on games every year.
Not that I couldn’t afford it, but I mostly play games that are at least 5 to 10 years old, either on second-hand physical copies or heavily discounted sales/keyshops. The most recent game I’ve bought is Elden Ring, even then only recently because I found a cheap physical copy.
You should switch Organic Maps for CoMaps in the checklist.
The only irreplaceable thing Google has is YouTube.
Game Pass is the same scam as Netflix was back then, and I’m not falling for it twice.
Netflix used to be too good to be true as well. 10€ a month for literally everything ! Now they don’t even make blu-rays anymore and you spend more time looking up which service has the thing you want to watch than watching it, so people are pirating again.
I’ll stick to physical games and GOG as much as possible.
Use Obtainium, and try to get apps outside of F-Droid as much as possible. Their method of signing apps themselves introduces a huge single point of failure in the security chain…
While this is bad for the market, it’s also entirely expected.
Xbox have been producing sub-par hardware with names no one can remember and barely any exclusives, it was only a matter of time.
To other Europeans : do you know anyone who owns an Xbox ? I’ve only ever had one single friend in middle school who had a 360. I’ve never seen any other model outside of an electronics store.
Their current gen is hamstrung by the existence of the Series S, and the utter lack of features in their controllers (no gyroscope or any motion sensors ? No advanced rumble ? No touchpad ?). No one who is serious about controller gaming buys an Xbox controller, especially because of the lack of gyro.
Their dedication to digital-only and pushing the games pass also alienates anyone who wishes to play physical games and/or offline.
And be careful with wallpapers, apps can get accent colors from your wallpaper, which are completely unique unless you use the default black one.
Cash by physical mail. Letters are traceable, bank notes are traceable, and physical objects you have been in contact with are virtually guaranteed to have both your fingerprints and DNA on them, no matter how hard you try to prevent that.
Cash by mail is fake privacy.
They kinda murdered the game for me when they made it so easy to switch servers during play and avoid ever fighting anyone…
Being “emotional” is just being immature about how you handle your emotions, which all genders are equally capable of.
Though currently, traditional masculinity teaches ineffective ways of dealing with emotion, that make men appear “less emotional” while not actually helping them.
Any man who respects himself should learn how to properly manage their emotions, by starting with accepting instead of denying them.
It should be expected of any good person to fight to break through the cage their assigned gender has built around them, or any other societal cages they find themselves within.
I’m trying to move my conversations to Signal, but some people are strangely resistant, despite using multiple corporate social media messaging services besides that.
I love reading a basic text article on the modern internet…
For the longest time that answer would have been literally true for me, I only used SMS.
It doesn’t matter anyway, there is no rule of law in the united states. You might as well lie, they will likely jail you no matter what you write on that document.
Just don’t go there.
“I don’t use social media”
The most important thing about social media is the first word : it’s social.
This sounds like a technically impressive medium, but if it fails to get a healthy community (which means, not just 4chan bros) then it will die.
Publishers are cancer. Self publish whenever possible !
