When I signed up for an in store demo, it included questions about vision. It sounds like they might be able to have matching optics available for you to actually try out for yourself if you have access to an Apple Store.

It's the "cravings value menu" now. There some stuff under $2 though.

Games that can are still releasing on PS4.

Give it the real controller and make it the Portal but actually useful and it will be fine.

Because having 2 early access games at once and announcing a third is not the point of early access.

Steam should straight up ban developers from even creating any additional game pages while they have early access active.

Live service means "forced online with a trash content treadmill to maximize FOMO".

Torrent Freak's.

They cover news in the torrent and piracy space. This is very clearly news. It's literally the whole purpose of the site.

It's the stuff the OP is calling "HBO-adjacent" that's most of your subscription now.

I literally cancelled it when they added all that nonsense before noticing them deleting anything I cared about in large part because merely existing massively lowered my value of the subscription. (The rest because they made me manually install a new app that looked identical but didn't work.)

Because part of their job is sharing all the batshit people argue in court that affects the space?

It can definitely be done.

But when all the actual experts who do it every day are telling you "fuck that shit; it's too much work", it's probably a pain in the ass.

I think it's a mixed bag. Some of the friction is just because people are used to the stupid ways Windows does stuff.

But there's other stuff like needing to manually change some downloaded files to have permission to execute that it makes sense for casual users to find confusing.

Adjacent is generous.

HBO's whole thing is high quality content. They shoved a bunch of trashy faked reality nonsense down my throat.

Notice how all of the replies are calling out the exact same malicious horseshit I did?

But sure , it's because I can't read, not because you wrote something bashing someone for doing literally nothing wrong.
