A friend of mine has aphantasia. It seems like she has trouble with some board games but not with others. If she can stare st the layout of the board she's usually fine. We've never played chess.
In addition to not being able to see anything in her head, she also cannot hear her own thoughts.
I wouldn't require source code, no. I would just consider that one acceptable form of allowing the game to continue being playable. However, it requires intervention from the user, so it wouldn't be accepted under this proposal.
Under the proposed rule, a company would not avoid penalty by releasing the source code.
so that no further intervention whatsoever is necessary for the game to function
I mean, I'd accept "release the source code" but this doesn't.
I never play games that are pure online with no LAN support.
Yes. They skipped right over. It confused many people at the time: a whole year of their lives, gone. Many centuries later when zero was invented, an explanation was finally offered as to why that happened.
No, it's unreasonable to expect the servers to stay online forever. Instead, they should be required to hand the keys over to the community if they stop providing the online service.
Addictive? Factorio.
Damn! What a shit guy!
Edit: doesn't excuse it, but apparently he's been apologising for this rant ever since. Blames it on drugs.
Seems to me Waters has walked back that remark about Ukraine. His schtick is generally that he says provocative stuff that opposes western power structures, which sometimes causes him to overcompensate and say something in favour of, say, Putin.
I was at his concert last year and he was hardcore antifa, anti-supreme court, anti-establishment, anti-billionaires, anti-zionist, anti-nazi, pro-choice, and so on. Pictures of every U.S. president with the words "war criminal" captioning them. He seems like a class act to me.
In fairness to Eric Clapton, he did have an extremely rare life-threatening reaction to the vaccine. He may be off the deep end now, but I think at the time of recording Layla etc. he was a fine guy as far as I know.
If it's in the middle of intricate detail it will make it harder to appreciate that detail as a human.
Anyway, it's easy to make an AI to remove such things. Just take a million images, add watermarks, and train the AI to produce the original images.
Good point.
