CDPR's whole ethos is to release games without DRM, since they saw better sales without it for the witcher series. They reason that if they have a good product, people will pay for it. But if the product isn't good, is that still

Even China has no chance at this. Western movies, music, cars, imported designer brands, etc. The upper class can't live without these things. You'll have problems with your own people once they are so connected with the outside w

I think you're ok feeling that, especially with your CDPR experiences. But a lot of the promotional material heavily emphasizes 'night city' and the whole worldbuilding aspect. They even coin it as 'the next generation o

Some monitors do have pwm backlights which flicker extremely fast, and can worsen eyestrain or cause headaches for some. I've seen it even on monitors that advertise being flicker free.

One reason I've seen is that the companies behind the vaccine have not actually disclosed how the mRNA gets inside the cell. They have said its some type of nanoparticle lipid mixture that is able to get inside your cells, but they hav

Microplastics are in literally every synthetic clothing item we wear. I don't see us ever getting rid, or cutting down on microplastics if thousands of companies, even self-proclaimed eco-friendly ones, sell these as their main product

I don't understand apples 'proven audio engineering'. The airpods pro don't sound good and cost $250. Incredibly muddy vocals, bass is washed out, and they just don't make music sound good. I need to crank the volum

I'm of the belief that everyone in life is just choosing the best option available to them. Every choice, every action can be reduced to this. And people who make 'bad' choices, or to spew out hate on the internet, are simply

You say you don't collect transaction fees, but that you make a small amount of money off the spread. I'm confused, whats the difference between these two?

Just tried it. My experience might be abnormal, but it seems glitchy and slow. A playlist that I already created with my offline songs synced with my phone, but playlist said 0 songs. No error messages, very unintuitive. Had to create a new

I like airbnb. They need to get better at weeding out fake/scammy listings, that tend to plague many online marketplaces where things can be listed for free. Maybe some in-person verification system, or a fee that gets refunded if you

Personally, I like the UI on linux. I can customize it to my hearts content, and run whatever style I want. I can switch from my i3 setup, a tiling wm, to GNOME in an instant. MacOS is alright, its UI is just a tad bloated and some things I

Exactly. This thing would be a killer dual-boot linux machine. But they won't release any drivers, and I think secure boot will probably only do MacOS.

Sure, you could pass a new amendment. That requires 2/3 majority in both houses which I think would be tough. Most of my issues with it are in the implementation, its just not practical. Theres lots of other insightful comments here ta

wraps have been around for a while, and they're still pretty expensive to put on. Tint is cheaper because you don't have to disassemble a car, and a flat surface is much cheaper to wrap than a car with curves and edges. I don'
