Subjectively for me, it was. The only two games in 2023 that were in the contest were the RE4 remake and TotK, but BG3 is probably the game I played significantly more.

Objectively, it is the best game of 2023 if we consider how many awards the game won and how well it sold.

I feel infinitely sorry for both you and your husband for never being able to enjoy one of the best games of all time.

He means that many people in a corporate environment wouldn’t expect a anime girl with a magnifying glass popping up on your screen, that could reflect badly on your company. Just imagine some CEO sharing his screen in a presentation and his background is a screenshot of some hentai scene or something. It wouldn’t make you seem very professional in the eye of the other corporate people.

That’s why companies that use anubis will usually pay for the subscription so they can replace the mascot with something else.

Sorry, you fell for billionaire propaganda.

Lions (which is the animal in the above picture) and most other big game like elephants, tigers, any large cats etc (so all the animals that are poached by billionaires) never need to be culled. Most of them are actually endangered species and poaching them is highly illegal. Even stuff like antelopes, water buffalos or some zebra specias are endangered.

Stuff that needs to be culled are animals like deer in europe because we have completely eradicated their natural predators and not culling them would completely destroy the ecosystem as they eat young trees which kills the forest. And even that is only done if you have a license and with strict reporting duties. But shooting a deer is probably not cool enough for mister milionaire who needs a lions head above his fireplace.

Hand to paw, no prep time. Just as nature intended.

I would like to take every big game hunter, take away their weapon and put them in an arena with the last thing they shot. Nobody of these ballless losers would survive.

Yes, but NPM has been had countless security problems, this isn’t a new problem. Even tho this instance is not a problem of NPM itself, it still has been proven as one of the most unreliable and insecure package managers out there.

One lie and one truth in this sentence.

Governments can’t even effectively tackle drugs, illegal weapons or CSAM. Gl making something as distributed as linux illegal.

In the EU, I know that for sure. Only if the “original name” is Parmigiano Reggiano, you may sell it as Parmesan. Otherwise, you gotta label it hard cheese or something. I think the same is true with pecorino romano.

security nightmare

That is not a corporations problem who’s given away the rights to his product. That is my problem as an informed user, deciding that I know well enough about what I’m doing.

Security can’t be the constant reason for EoLs. Especially when there’s no real reason beyond the company needing the next cash cow.

Will your technically-challenged great-Aunt switch to post-support build when her phone hits EoL

This isn’t for the average user. My grandma isn’t gonna learn how to flash a custom firmware on her old phone. But an informed user can.

Right now, if your device has no more support, you can use it until something else changes and it becomes incompatible. Then you have a dead box that doesn’t do anything anymore, and simply because the company decided to no longer support it.

It’s about having the OPTION to use it in the future so the community can at least try to fix it.

If I was regularly chatting with people who call for killing me, I would have a very high blood pressure.

Yes, that’s why most sane instances blocked .ml

But we’re talking about a single person who lost it, not the entire instance rebelling against lemmy.world or something. You’re not just punishing the person who did it, but everyone else on that instance.

Nah, I was talking about general impact on my daily driving my PC and playing the game. As I said - Denuvo has had zero noticeable impact for me so far and apart from people claiming it has one, I could not find anything verifiable online neither have I ever experienced the impact myself despite playing plenty of games where denuvo is used.

As I have written countless times - I highly doubt that denuvo stalls the CPU for long enough to have any impact on performance. And I also don’t think discussing this point any further makes any sense unless someone has actual, verifiable proof that it does.

An asset not used by a game consuming 100GB of my disk space would probably have a bigger impact on me and how I use my computer than denuvo.

Funny, I get to see the text, but on piefed.zip, so my instance. The link also points to piefed.zip instead of anarchist.nexus Maybe anarchist.nexus is a piefed instance and it doesn’t play well with lemmy? Might be some kind of bug.

Or it’s simply because of the defederation. Might be the most reasonable explanation.

Are you suggesting that admins are never responsible for what they say because every admin is a single individual?

Not at all. But by defederating the instance, you’re not just punishing the admin, but every other user on that instance. It’s a complete overkill reaction to something that is honestly a harmless threat. If I’d go nuts like that every time someone tells me he wants me to get killed I’d have a very high blood pressure.

Defederation is a last resort reaction if an instance is seriously incompatible with the rest of society, like .ml

Crazy, I’ve never heard of that. I just looked it up and yeah, it’s as you say, mostly for vulnerable people like old people or pregnant women. TIL I guess.

Which is still just a single person.

To be honest, I don’t really get why you’d get a flu shot? I never heard of these either. Is that an american thing that just passed by me all this time?
