I'm a PC player but I always wonder when people have this take. I dislike, hugely, their treatment of fans in the preservation space. However, as a company they seem to not do big layoffs, rarely buy companies or IP, and have a history of leadership falling on their swords (financially) during hard times to keep their employees.

I don't dislike them as a whole because of those elements that are dead at large.

I could be wrong, I'm not deeply knowledgable outside of a handful of articles over the years.

I would rank Microsoft way worse though and I used to be in their ecosystem as a big fan. Biggest pusher of owning nothing.

The guy who made the Backblaze software said it was already done and was easy for their standard client to work with Linux but never got rolled out because Linux users are power users. I wonder if that is the real reason when it comes to Proton. It's not unlimited but maybe there is some power user use that they anticipate and don't want to deal with.

...will launch on PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, and PC this August. More specifically, it hits PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC (via Steam) on August 1. ..

Reminds me of when we had to grade each other's homework as a kid. Minimum word counts.

Does Criminal Intent hold up pretty well? I remember loving it.

I hope your right. My experience in life has been people will constantly loosen what they find acceptable and it does not stay contained but spreads. 😟

I either use Firefox or LibreWolf. I was just conversing.

The new Declarative Net Request API is still a downgrade in capability compared to the older API, but the feature gap has closed significantly. If a certain website finds a workaround for ads that Manifest V3 extensions can’t block, then you probably should just switch browsers or stop going to that site. I would like to see the rules limit continue to increase, though.

Isn't that most of the web?

I enjoyed the article. I don't think it's coincidence that Google is going after adblockers at the same time as this is happening, despite suggested improvements that will come along with Manifest V3.

It could make things more secure from malicious extensions but in my experience people who install extensions tend to be a bit more savvy and people who aren't savvy tend to not use extensions. That's just my experience though.

I do think people should get paid for efforts so we can keep nice things that could be getting served to us by a small team. Websites I frequent for gaming info for example. But I only found those places by searching and sifting through sites with poor morals and I need a way to browse safely for that.

Do you feel similar shortcomings from lemmy compared to reddit?

I apologize for not having more to add. I just find it interesting to see what others feel who swapped to mastadon and lemmy.

I never got to play the original, but I remember it had more character in its trailers.

If it can be done in the goaled 25, that would be great. Ubisoft has a history of making their games take way too much time for my liking. It all starts to overstay its welcome.

Roblox is kind of yucky to begin with. Don't they use kids to make content and then give them an awful portion of proceeds?

I saw this like a year ago when it went into early access. It looks like fun if they can iron out the performance issues.

I would definitely organize a movie and game night around this.
