If your CEO of zoom you have to believe in the product your company makes. Its the basic requirement. When he says this, its a slap in the face to every engineer and worker who has dedicated their life to making zoom a good product.

Its like the time the dunking donuts ceo said he doesn't like donuts on Marketplace.

They need to name and shame the people reaching out. They keep reacting them.

Whatever the reason is, it probably has very little to do with the described use case since RTOS is a very different use case to desktop copmuters. I didn't even know that people were making an RTOS that is based on the linux kernel. You could never bring the device support the linux kernel has to the RTOS world.

I mean but come on, dlc for in game items - I don't care how you slice it, that's a microtransation, even if you don't purcase from within the game UI.

Can't confirm, but I would assume that there is a capacitor in a few bluetooth modules that keeps some of the components charged, and that they only try to comminicate with the kernel after a power cycle.

I think wizards of the coast will demand more products that are part of baldur's gate 3. Tbf, baldur's gate 1 and 2 are known for their expansions. I wouldn't be opposed to an expansion or two.

Coming from someone who doesn't really like DOS2 with a controller - they made it work a lot better in Baldur's Gate 3 and it is at the point where I am mostly playing with a controller. Turn based mode goes a long way in this game to not having mouse selectivity.

What are they talking about? Yes they do: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2378500/Digital_Deluxe_Edition_DLC/

Mind you, I am not even mad, because they are extra superflous items from DOS2, so whatever, but they definitely have at least dlc for in game items. I guess that isn't really technically an in game purchase in the same way a dark pattern loot box is, but also in a single player game it is pretty much the same thing.

I am really supportive and happy for what Larian has done, but I think it is kind of naive for them to be beating their chest about this. Wizards of the Coast will one day probably force them to release monetized items, or charge for extra modules. I don't think they will be unfair about it, but come on.

Y'all get out of here. Middle age starts at 40. Don't at me.

Dragons Dogma has steadily been building a cult following, and pretty much the thing I miss most about reddit is the dragons dogma community. People play it to this day, actively making and sharing pawns with others.

The game still has pretty much the best action RPG combat system of all time - the guy who usually directs devil may cry directed it. It is a must play if you happen to like both classic fantasy rpgs as well as modern platinum and capcom action games.

If you are on the fence, I would definitely recommend waiting for a sale, where you pick the game up for 5 dollars usually. I have hundreds of hours maxing out my character in almost every class, and I still have to get around to beating the dark arisen dlc content - in just having too much fun with the rest of the game.

Can they wait until tuber illegal is absent?

Hopefully switch game prices will go down. Eventually they will turn off internet support and I can finally hack it.
