Wait a minute.

WHY TF IS HORIZON ZERO DAWN GETTING AN REMASTER!?!?!

WHAT IS THE POINT? What stupid idiot thought this was a good idea???

And that bloody price tag! €50 for accessibility features and slightly better performance? Why… Why is this a successful way to make money? … I… I’m sad now.

Problem is, the games are fun. Had a hell of a time with the second game, and unleashed the 100%er in me

Edit: The games are genuinely high quality, with interesting and constantly evolving mechanics and often good stories. That’s not something you see in big titles anymore.

Does anybody know how this will affect the EU?

I missed that part xD

Just with the rant thought of the root of this problem, and that is the general populace and how they use it xD

Just keep in mind that installing an app via the respective app stores (just install, not custom settings) is often the limit of what people can, and are willing to do.

People just simply don’t have the time, willpower and/or knowledge to get a controlled LAN working. It’s similar to how you don’t expect everyone being able to fly a helicopter, or build a car from scratch.

To clarify, as youve not understood the joke, nor read the comments. As far as I understand it, were you to start sailing at the first point, you never have to turn to arrive at the second. That’s why it’s “straight”. On the 2d plane you are completely correct however.

For proper and better informed explanations read the other comments :D

I need permission to load/send data (not sure) via the email. Something something security something something good (but bad)

I mostly want to switch since it feels better. It’s a first big step into becoming independent from Microsoft, and I don’t like the way they’re going with LLM’s among other things (I.E. totally oblivious of any security issues or broken code until the internet/EU spanks’m for it)

The main reason though, windows 10 has ShapeCollector.exe to help windows learn your writing style. Windows 11 removed that, and just didn’t replace it with anything. Really irks me that.

In terms of thunderbird, school needs to grant permission, which I did ask for. Don’t think they’ve granted it though.

TF is crate ent. on about? They’ve not even made an RTS, let alone one with love and care out into it? They’ve got an RPG* (grim dawn) and a city builder (farthest frontier) on steam. Neither come anywhere close to what an RTS is supposed to be, and like others have said, Dune (don’t know the specific name), C&C, warcraft and StarCraft we’re all impressive mainstream games, all RTS.

Haven’t read the post, but what if kind of detached world do they live in?

That’s intended. Even to premium subs youtube pushes adds which try and promote engagement. Its fucking awful.

Does get me out of the loop sometimes though, so I guess Im thankful for that.

To add, I personally have had all of the complaints of digital keyboards happen to physical ones. Just not the removal of the numpad. The others, wordt of which is lag, Ive had plenty. Input lag IS THE WORST.

For those who are completely clueless, this is meant as satire

If you’ve already got that much of a set-up to guarantee privacy, it’s a very good point. Most people aren’t that dedicated to privacy (I think), but it’s still a very valid point in your case

Point one: I’m pretty certain they already track that. With or without account. And you’re on the internet, without a VPN there is no privacy. You are also able to remove that history any moment you want. Is it Ideal? No. But you should’ve acted 10-15 years prior if you wanted to stop this. It’s still not ideal though.

Point two: I agree. There does need to be space for them to repent, but they aren’t actively trying to, so don’t trust them (see the next point as an example of that).

Point three That’s a shame. They really need to fix that, though with how corpos do things nowadays, not sure that’ll happen.

Point four: That’s normal, expected and a reasonable business decision. Most of these features they likely added after premium, and they’re meant as incentives. Why else would you want to but their premium, if not for the added features?

Point five: This is shitty and mostly inexcusable behaviour. It’s god awful, and they really shouldn’t do it. I do have to play devil’s advocate a little. They are fully, 100% in their right to do this. If you don’t like it, vote with your wallet (and time). If we stop using their services, they’ll stop making it worse. They are still A-holes for doing it though.

Didn’t know the fenomenon had gotten an actual name! Thanks for sharing it with me!

I hope you’re joking… I really, really hope your being sarcastic rn…

I still had my Reddit account just for posteroties sake. I don’t anymore now. I refuse to accept changes or rules that allow for them to steal all my data. I’ve not gotten to this point with Google or Microsoft yet, but they’re not far off the chopping block.

Please show me the light. It would be greatly appreciated. Why tf are we talking about beef stroganoff? Please, please tell me.

Yep. We all know it leads to hope, dreams and positivity.
