It's so hard to tell, cuz he barely "had it" to begin with.

I don't think the goal was to try to make it easier.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was some sort of loophole created by deregulation though. They are still horrible too for taking advantage of it if that is the case.

Hehe yeah. To celebrate the recent patch increasing multiplayer to 8 people. We basically started like a DnD group sessions style of playthrough. We would meet weekly and play for like 8 hours at a time. Was pretty great.

To be fair, hard to decline when it's already low. Even if they did include Israel or other countries mentioned in the replies, it's still totally possible their tourism isn't lower this year than last. Especially places where it was already pretty much 0 or statistically insignificant. Not declining doesn't mean it went up, just means it's at least the same percentage it was last year.

It also breaks other stuff like being able to output video to portable video glasses. A relatively niche use now, but something that will pick up considerably over the life of the console.

Having a floating 4k screen that you can put anywhere at any size is pretty nice. Don't have to look down at your hands or hold the system up to a comfortable eye line.

I do hope that at some point they open it up a bit more. And maybe only exclude stuff that would damage the system, which is ostensibly the -given- reason for locking it down. While of course, the real reason is likely a licensing opportunity.

I do still buy their stuff. But it has been more and more often lately that I buy it and then feel ok about emulating it to add in stuff like 4k 120 fps or VR/stereoscopic or whatever.

That's more late 90's sports car. But it is at least closer, hehe.

Yeah, what I really want is a little electric late 80's/early 90's sports car. With modern safety features. I don't care if it doesn't have insane range, I drive less than 5000 km a year. I miss the look of that era of sports cars. It doesn't -need- to have pop-up headlights, but think of how much more responsive and useful they could be now.

My current car is a mark 3 supra, even if I could convert it to electric, the safety features are also pretty outdated.

They wouldn't be using the naked eye to spot the balloons. While I certainly am on the skeptical side that this happened. It is closer to being plausible than it originally seems. There are just some suspect details.

Yeah, even "powerless" narcissists need someone to feed their ego, and will eventually turn on that person and need a new one.

It's just worse when the narcissist has power.

I guess we better get ready for some SLAMing.

"It's all computer"

 

I assume they are two separate patents by two separate companies, but once those are both on the same can opener, there will be no reason to buy any other manual can opener. So when is the first one expiring?
