Every billionaire competing to buy the world’s biggest megaphones…

Yeah, if you’re the sort of gamer who sells their games when they’re done with them, you can basically rent Nintendo games for the cost of postage and eBay fees… Second hand they’re only a few quid less than in the shops.

Ah c’mon man, that’s just not true.

Nintendo games will be $90 after a decade.

Steam games do go on sale eventually, but the best deals are often not even on Steam any more. I’ve got like >1000 games on Steam but most are from Humble Bundle before they went to complete shit.

You think Steam games won’t follow console prices?

I can currently get AC Shadows (just an example of a new game, I don’t want it) on PS5 (physical) for a few £ less than it is on Steam. They’ve gone from like £40 a few years ago to £60. As standard.

While rubbing their hands fast enough to start a fucking fire.

GPU prices never recovered. I’m still on a 1060.

Nintendo games never come down in price either.

BotW is still going for what it did on day one. Even second hand copies go for nearly that.

Although it does mean you can basically rent them for as long as you want for a few dollars if you sell it again afterwards…

Raping kids has unfortunately been a thing since long before the internet. You could legally bang a 13 year old right up to the 1800s and in some places you still can.

As recently as the 1980s people would openly advocate for it to be legal, and remove the age of consent altogether. They’d get it in magazines from countries where it was still legal.

I suspect it’s far less prevalent now than it’s ever been. It’s now pretty much universally seen as unacceptable, which is a good start.

Given the “we spared no expense” attitude to the rest of the data these things are trained on, I fear that may be wishful thinking…

Should be but search for “kwh per hour” and there’s plenty of people who seem confused by it all.

I see DLL Hell is still going strong…

Let me guess.

A bunch of kids who have never seen COBOL before use AI to rewrite it all into a language they also can’t read, do the bare minimum of checks, and then run millions of payments through it.

This from the genius bar whose hard drive “overheated” when they ran a query on 60,000 records.

I assume most Russian GitHub users use a VPN to avoid it. He has chosen not to in order to make a point.

The real worry is what happens when the US declares sanctions on random allies in their stupid “trade war”…

One of their main contributors are in US sanctioned regions (Russia) so they can’t access it.

Oracle.

There was a VR game like this called Scanner Sombre.

No, you see where he grew up it was a common expression that meant you drive it yourself!

It couldn’t possibly be expected to mean what any sane person would think.

The fuckin’ Pedo Guy.

Unfortunately one will not lead to the other.

It will lead to the plot of Elysium.

Ah, the 200 Go Fuck Yourself pattern.

I use HTTP error codes in my API, and still occasionally see a GET /resource/{“error”:“invalid branchID provided”} from people who don’t seem to know what they are.

Fucking Chrome/Electron is why.

I honestly wouldn’t mind that if they could all use the exact same runtime so the apps could be a few MB each, but nooooo.
