I think there used to be a kind of mystery about things though, you could debate in a pub for hours on a subject where now there's a definitive answer available within seconds. That delay in accessing information was fun and led to all sorts of debates and wonder. I remember when the original Pokémon games came out on Gameboy and there were all sorts of rumours flying around about how to get certain Pokémon, missingno etc. you never knew what was real or not until you saw it with your own eyes. Now you go on Google/YouTube and someone's already done an hour long deep dive to prove/debunk everything. I think having all of this information at our fingertips has actually stunted our curiosity and drive to explore and experiment

I confess I haven't popped back in for a few updates now but it still was missing the slick/dynamic animal behaviour that even the very first trailers had, which I was most interested in.

ReVanced is great on Android, it also enables other YouTube premium features such as picture-in-picure mode.

There was the classic case where he said he was such a free speech absolutuonist that he wouldn't ban the person who was tracking his plane. Guess what happened shortly afterwards

I'm also a massive slay the spire fan, I'd say Balatro is easier to pick up and the runs are shorter, so it really has an addictive loop of "just one more try", however I think you're much more in the hands of RNG and I personally wouldn't put it on the same level as STS, but it is a great game and definitely worth checking out!

I agree, I don't think people realise how early into this tech we are at the moment. There are going to be huge leaps over the next few years.

This is a genuine question from a European, what does make it difficult to move here?

The game is great and the learning curve can be tricky, but it has a whole load of scenarios which gradually ramp up the difficulty and introduce new concepts to help you learn how to play. I'd highly recommend checking out the game!

Europe doesn't set all the rules at the EU level, this type of thing was probably law in many EU countries before it was law at the EU level.

I'm curious who the target market for this is. When buying your own system you typically want to get the best performance for your money, and with the Apple tax included you're always going to be paying a lot more for similar specs to something you can build yourself.

Genuine question, is it Google being petty or Amazon not supporting the protocol?

Hamas maybe started the latest conflict, but they're certainly not the ones that are continuing it at this point.
