   The emphasis should be placed on the 'cost PER install' to understand the uproar. It might be a reasonable expectation to pay for Unity based on how many games you've sold, that way Unity's revenue scales with your own.

   Reducing 'misogyny' to mean a negative view of women is simplistic at best, manipulative at worst. Misogyny is a far more nuanced concept, and I don't mean that to say it's difficult to understand, though the author this

   Agreed. Everyone understands what 'almond milk' means, nobody is misled by it and it's really not the critical issue dairy farmers are facing when it comes to the downfall of their industry.

   I'm really not convinced they have any good reason to do this under data protection laws, certainly not EU or UK (for US YMMV). This is transmitting personally identifiable info (name) on person B to person A. The purpose of the email

   I don't want to sound dismissive but this isn't a very deep topic. When people aren't at work they typically pursue their interests and hobbies and find purpose in those. This has been true throughout history.

   Thank you! First point of the summary definitely tracks. There's a clash there. Plenty of overlap between the platforms (Twitter vs Instagram isn't like Sports, you can support both teams) but each platform certainly has different

    Well that article just sold me on Starmer's plan. Sounds pretty good to be fair, and I don't particularly like Starmer. Also the opening lines are too funny not to comment on: "In theory, Britain is the most democratic countr

    Wow that went from implying 'women love Tinder for casual hookups' to 'women are too serious about finding soulmates' at breakneck speeds. Which is it? "Hard to argue with this: Women initiate divorce 69% of the tim

    I've not seen this before. Looks more like visual artefacting from a graphics processing error to me on first glance. Where was this specific ad? Might try to find one in the wild myself? If it is a QR code it seems like maybe some kin

    Yeah I got that impression too. I don't get the premise though. If you extend horrible views and then get treated poorly by others that is simple the consequences of your actions. It also does not mean that people are devoid of compass

    COVID caused a spike, inflation is now causing a dip. It will recover just fine without anyone panicking. The biggest reason for a short-term recovery is likely the planned obsolescence of the current generations of Nvidia cards. They have

    I hate this new PR angle the RoP shills working for Amazon are taking. Spreading as much misleading info about Tolkien + RoP as possible. The man is dead. The man never wrote RoP. He wrote notes and related stories that Amazon have turned i

    I think it's a matter of network performance, and the visual bugs that you can create without due care in such a fast-paced online game. Valve have commented on this hero's mechanics, and issued fixes relating to client/serve

    It seems like they haven't been overzealous and cross-referenced hits with other data. People are getting varying degrees of bans, and exploiters with several accounts are reporting that not every account has been banned. i.e. Valve ar

    So, there's a character in the game that has a passive ability that lets it recover HP faster if they are not being observed by the enemy. That ability necessitates a function that checks for enemy vision, from heroes or from static ob

    2100 is reasonably long term in my mind. It's an arbitrary milestone that a lot of people are using, as in these SSPs. The assessment that generated the SSPs puts SSP5 at an estiamted 4.4 degrees C increase in global average temperatur
