Thank you for the correction! I thought it was like the PS3 where there was different hardware inside the different models. Well, some of them.
…but wait, if all the internals are the same size, why wasn’t the regular one the size of the Slim? Is it just space from having the disc drive removed?
They’re probably testing on it though
Yes, that was my point, haha
They have what, 3 variants of the console? Regular, Slim, Pro?
Meanwhile on PC…
I believe the comment I replied to changed what it said. I recall something about making it a law that DRM should be removed after a reasonable time period of 1 to 2 years.
I agree that DRM sucks. I didn’t agree that it should be law to remove DRM a year or two after release.
The ethics of spanking in a sexual context largely depend on consent, communication, and mutual understanding between partners. In consensual adult relationships where both parties are fully informed and agree to engage in such activities, it can be considered ethical. However, it’s crucial that boundaries are respected, and that there is clear communication about limits and safety. Issues arise when consent is not clear, when there is coercion, or when it involves power imbalances. As with any sexual practice, the key principles are consent, respect, and safety.
And if it could be trained ethically, it’d be more ethical, too!
I’ve never heard of any of these. Are any worth picking up?
I don’t think many people had “a thing” for mermaids though. It was just another human creature with boobs. I don’t think most people thought about it any deeper than that
Equal work for equal pay is important, yes.
Businesses might be willing to “give a chance” to someone with a disability if they don’t have to pay them as much as anyone else.
If there are no other incentives, and someone with a disability is unable to perform the job as well as someone without a disability, then the business would likely choose the more capable employee regardless of any disabilities. And by definition, that’d usually be an advantage for the person without a disability.
You can’t fire someone for having a disability in a lot of places. You can usually fire someone for not performing well enough at the required duties.
Considering companies can easily sell new copies of games after 2 years, I’d still be fine with a longer period of time. I want developers to make money.
I’ve seen a Kickstarter that would open source their game after 2 years if they raised $4.4 million or so. They didn’t reach that goal, but they open sourced the previous game in the series after about 10 years.
For just removing DRM, I think somewhere between 2 and 10 years is the sweet spot. I mean, I’ve still got 10-year old games on my list I’d be willing to buy, haha
What was the book?
I’d be curious to read about the experiment in particular
What a stupid fucking decision they made.
They were on sale!!!
Your comment reminded me of the time I tried to connect my new phone number to my accounts, but had trouble with Amazon and AirBnB because the last guy with the number forgot to update his accounts.
Amazon told me it’d have to delete the old account before allowing me to connect my new number.
That’s not even the worst one though.
AirBnB gave me no other option than to log in to the other guy’s account through nothing but the SMS recovery code (which came to my phone since I have his old number now), starting the account recovery process from within his account, and then removing the phone number from his account.
After logging out (and closing the private browsing window and turning off the VPN), I was then able to link the phone number to my account. (And yes, I tried everything else – from within my account, it told me “Sorry, this number is linked to another account”)
Never had a problem with AirBnB or the new phone number since then though!
LOL Ex-Hezbollah member changes his ways and sells his pager on E-Bay
Someone finds a cheap pager from Iran on E-Bay and decides they want it…haha
(I know you said Wish, but I like this story too, lol)
The problem is caused by a combination of extraversion and low social intelligence.
Extraversion isn’t the problem, and I didn’t get the sense that OP was saying all extraverted people are like this. But the problem is undoubtedly related to the boss’ extraversion
I agree with your comment wholeheartedly and in its entirety.
With that said, raising the wages of people with special needs to be on par with that of the general minimum wage would generally be bad for people with special needs. Employers are incentivized to hire people with special needs because of the lower rate. Many employers would prefer someone without special needs if the hourly costs were the same.
In addition, many people with special needs are working fewer than 40 hours a week, and I still think they should be able to support their lives, to at least comfortably have their basic needs met.
I think the government should be stepping in to fill in the gap. If the state minimum wage is $12/h, but workers with special needs can be paid $8/h (for example), then maybe the government could be paying the extra $4/h to meet the difference.
…or they could use that money towards providing programs that people with special needs could benefit from.
If the emulator can’t run games from archive files, then I store what I play unarchived, and what I don’t play stays as archived as it was.
Unless they’re small files, then I’d probably back then up extracted. But I haven’t had a case where the files were small enough for me to store extracted but the emulator couldn’t run from archives.
