Made the switch to Aegis a little while back. I like it a lot.

Haha, he nearly passes out when he realizes he crashed the game. That kid is amazing.

Anyone who expected Starfield to win Most Innovative Gameplay, are you offering divination services to the public?

It was an easy call to make. Steam Awards are voted by the public, so it's all about name recognition.

The other finalists in that category were Shadow of Doubt, Contraband Police, Remnant II, and Your Only Move Is Hustle. Of all these, I had heard about Starfield and Remnant II.

I'm sure some of these games are awesome and I want to check them out by virtue of being finalists, but it was pretty clear Starfield was gonna win on brand recognition alone.

Steam Awards, like any publicly-voted award, is a name recognition contest.

Linux users truly are the vegans of the tech world.

We hate cars so much, we've come full circle to parroting fossil fuel industry propaganda against EVs, I see.

Kind of a disingenuous title. Ubisoft is a publisher, yes, but this is specifically about it's development studio in Montreal. Furthermore, these cuts are in IT, admin, and VFX, and not (so far) in development itself, and certainly not in Assassin's Creed dev teams, which is clearly their cash cow.

The same happens to Chinese app stores on Android phones. Just companies trying to throw up obstacles for their competition.

Between this and antivirus software flagging cracked software, I wish security apps would focus on security instead of weaponizing consumer trust.

Better to brush after getting up to remove any bacteria and plaque buildup. And then right before bed, floss+brush.

 

I know this is a joke/meme, but I sincerely think of the Roman Empire a surprising amount of times. I find myself obsessing over how Roman citizens were living just as complex lives as we are today, or about Marcus Aurelius' life and philosophy, or about how the Republic fell and became a totalitarian state.
