You are gonna be disappointed. I stole it and still wanted a refund.

I'm not out of space yet, but I still deleted it from my Jellyfin server out of principle.

I think it's the writing above all else that's a complete embarrassment.

Your own opinion is the only one that matters.

Unless you like Expendables 4. If you liked that you deserve prison.

Just about all of it.

Most farming gets subsidised. This is a good thing. You want excess in the system. You've seen what the free markets did to housing. You don't want that happening to food.

The slavery-in-all-but-name isn't such a good thing, but hey-ho.

It's that necessarily a good thing?

I remember suddenly needing a firewall on my PC back in the days of the Blaster worm.

Do we really want all those crappy IoT devices open on all ports to the general internet?

They've captured his weird lumpy face beautifully.

I had that with "I don't care about cookies" add-on.

I disabled it and then it blocked me for being from Europe. 🤷‍♂️

That's all well and good but I don't want you living in my garden.

Not really, Ubisoft.

Much like music, movies and TV, you just need to make sure your content is both available for purchase for people who don't want a subscription and consistently available on a subscription service for those that do.

It's when you start fucking around and taking them off again because somebody else is offering you more for exclusivity that we get pissed off and just pirate things. You can't expect Assassin's Creed Black Flag to still be making you a noticeable amount of money, but a subscriber can rightfully expect it to be on your service.

I'm of the opinion that if a game is on a subscription service, be it PSN or Game Pass, then it should stay there except in very extreme circumstances. A game can take weeks to play through, and it's only going to take one large game going AWOL at 90% completion for me to sour on the whole idea.

Massive Coronary 2024.

The only sane choice.

OK, but that doesn't make it affordable or relevant.

It's like comparing a Ferrari and a Lamborghini. It doesn't matter because the world runs on Toyota Corollas.

Additionally, VR lives and dies on software.

Self checkout is just fine, as long as you have enough of them.

Even better are the handsets you can take around the shop and scan as you go, as nobody wants to really be doing an entire trolley at the self checkout.

I assume it weighs it at the start and knows it's dry when it weighs the same again.

It doesn't know what the material is. Some dry quicker than others.
