Denial of service I guess? Either that or having to submit a very specific set of documents or forms to let someone somewhere know why you need just one more after already having seven at that point (First one being the one your parents are given at the time of your birth, followed by the 6 reprints they allow)

I joined for Game Changer, but Dimension 20 I’ve what made me keep my subscription lol

This is the best explanation for caffeine withdrawals that I’ve read. Thanks for the enlightenment!

Yippee! The death of cable is fast approaching, hopefully.

Not a lawyer, but hypothetically yes? I think it’s the same situation with Pantone colors being only legally viewable on Adobe software or whatever. (Will double check on the validity of that though)

Not to mention that they also incentivise players to spend real-world money by having their website have a secret club for whales (I think you need to spend either $1K or $5K in order to have the button appear) to spend even more money then they did to even gain access originally.

Edit: clarity and conciseness: added “originally” to the end of the last sentence.

I don’t like how I didn’t catch this was satire until the third bullet point

It’s actually a bit hit or miss, at least on Prime Video. Most episodes still have the Massive Attack Theme, but a few here and there (Mostly in S2 iirc) have the generic theme.

Babe wake up Dr Evil just hatched a new scheme

The song that comes to mind for me is “Do your Ears Hang Low?”

To be fair though, that’s pretty much any pharmacy system. I just switched my main pharmacy over last year, and it’s basically the same process.

I’ve noticed this on my TV’s YouTube app as well. It went from 15 second I shippable ads, to 2 ads where I need to watch at least one and only then can I skip, to sometimes at least 30 seconds before I can skip. It’s worse on the longer video essays that I like watching, where they say “Fewer ad breaks for this long video”, but in reality they have the same amount of ads that you need to watch more of to skip. I absolutely fucking hate it :D

Honestly, I think it’s pretty hard to call this an ad lol

It’s not a part of the “Create” series of packs, but Better Minecraft is essentially just a gigantic overhaul of how the game works. It has things like The Aether, Twilight Forest, as well as BetterNether and BetterEnd iirc.

I would ask your parents about getting a child-locked Microsoft/Xbox account.

They do have a pretty sound reasoning for that though. Recoveries (which are services where someone better at the game than you logs into your account to play on your behalf) are a big thing in games like D2, and are also against their ToS. The tl;dr is that if you give your account information to someone and they play your game, and just so happen to cheat, that’s your fault for giving your information away.

I know it’s a long shot, but I sincerely hope that if (when) Sony takes over management at Bungie, they at least try to hire back some of their talent that worked on TFS.

Yeah, every concert I go to I try to get at least a CD, maybe a vinyl or T-shirt if they were sold out.

That’s the thing, it might have been company funds. Back when Sony bought Bungie, they made a giant fund for severance in case of layoffs, so that devs would have a bit of a safety net if worst came to worst. Fast forward to October 30th, 2023, and that money is just… Gone with the wind. My facts may be a little muddled but I’m fairly certain that’s how it played out.

That sounds perfect for what I need actually. Thanks for sharing that!
