That sounds like nonsense. I’ll have to look it up!

This is a really cool idea – wish I’d heard of it sooner!

Jesus Christ.

I zoom in and this is the FIRST thing I see. What in the god damned shit?

Any problem that breaks the GUI version to such a degree that the user must resort to using the terminal is a problem. You and I may be content to use the terminal – hell, I tend to prefer it over most GUi options – but that doesn’t mean your average user will be happy to do so.

Curses, you’ve got a point…!!

“this would work if you did something completely different” lmao

Happy I could help, sorry to hear bad news.

The ‘official’ reason, as I recall reading it, is increasing security for players. Link to the announcement.

Personally I think that’s a load of hooey.

FWIW this won’t involve a new launcher, to my knowledge.

I can’t remember where I heard this originally, but I subscribe to the belief that you need to maintain the rights of criminals (like voting) to prevent tyranny.

Because if being labeled a criminal is enough to remove your rights, a corrupt government need only declare you one to take your rights away.

It used to be criminal in some parts of the USA for black and white people to intermarry, for example. Imagine losing your right to vote because of who you married.

You already need a PSN account for cross play

Factually incorrect. I never linked up and have played with at least one person I knew was on PlayStation.

Thanks for sharing the source! I had a feeling it was The Reductress, I love their stuff.

What’s the bottom left one?

Okay.

A variety of small but useful features. Typing indicator, reactions, read receipts, and larger media limits. I’m sure there’s more, that’s all I can think of off the top of my head.

Real answer: when people finance their phones, the provider needs to check their credit to confirm if they’re actually eligible.

That’s Cory Doctorow, my guy. He’s not making an ad.

Agreed. Consider this absolutely batshit take from the reddit post linked in the article.

Your art looks pretty good, so most people wouldn’t be able to tell it’s AI unless you told them it’s AI.

Generally it’s always best to just lie and tell everyone you made it yourself, just to avoid all the toxic people that hate AI, because not having to read hateful comments from people like that is reason enough to lie. Don’t need to provide any evidence or go into details, just tell everyone you made it yourself and ignore anyone that question it.

“Your art”. I’m sure clicking the “regenerate” button on mid journey for 5 hours took lots of work. It’s hard not to feel real hate for these people.

That does honestly suck. I’m sorry that happened for you, bud. I have some issues with my parents that I’m still working on, it’s tough.
