NotMyOldRedditName, do games w NBC News Does Entire Piece Trying To Link CEO Shooting To ‘Violent Video Game’

Interesting, had no idea about its origin story.

Also… of course

In June 2006 a Rockingham school inquiry was launched after parents complained of the traumatic effects classroom Mafia was having on their fifth-grade children. Davidoff responded to the reports, saying that as a parent who had studied child psychology for 25 years, he felt that the game could “teach kids to distinguish right from wrong”, and that the positive message of being honest could overcome the negative effects of an “evil narrator” moderating the game as if it were a scary story.

Of all the games they try to demonize, they demonize a game type people have played at home for decades at parties, in person, with no computers.

Brilliant.

90s house party game here, I’m sure people played it earlier.

is this not about pirating if it’s a single player game?

I mean that’s what the California law is.

If you buy it you own it, but we aren’t buying the games.

A law that says they have to let us buy it instead of license it would be nice though.

They’re bigger so it’s hard to know, but it’s usually something like 2.9% + 10c a transaction.

At their scale though who knows

They should almost just make it so the blaze plan of firebase or other cloud services has a $1 non refundable pre-payment so they can just whittle away at the pennies instead of getting charged processing/transaction fees on a $0.01 transaction. Tops up to $1 if it goes to $0

I think people would pay $1 to enable the paid plans. If you’re going that far, you’re getting $1 of use out of it.

I’ve had Google charge me $0.01 before for firebase usage.

They really should have waited until I owed more since that cost them money.

I’d never even heard of this before. Wtf

NotMyOldRedditName, do games w Ubisofts stock tanked this morning ahead of the markets opening

It’s a invite only alpha and as I write this it’s #7 on the steam rankings of current players, 6 if you wanna exclude Banana which is it’s own hilarious thing

Dota 2 is #2 and has 565k right now

NotMyOldRedditName, (edited ) do astronomy w Elon Musk destroys astronomy

What’s more likely to happen is Starship’s will be launched where the entire ship becomes the telescope, and then we’ll have arrays of these much further away.

Not sure if it’s the same for radio, but for optical that means we can get a 9 meter mirror up there without any expensive folding mechanism, and who knows how big if we fold them as the fairing is not only wider but also longer.

Cost would go from billions to hundreds of millions or less. James Webb cost 10b.

The James Webb folding mirror is 6.5m and was folded into a 4.5m fairing…

NotMyOldRedditName, do gaming w It only took two days for someone to unlock a developer mode in Baldur's Gate 3's modding tools, opening up the possibility of custom levels and campaigns

IF you’re correct, then hasbro would just force them to fix it, and it’d become a never ending game of whack a mole, where probably every update has to break existing mods based on the hack to further disuade people.

Okay dude, continue to have your raging hard on for hating Elon

I’ll wait for a verified source that shows spacex had a formal contract to supply starlink services to Ukraine with the DoD prior to this. I imagine I’ll die before you can do that since you can’t.

Edit: specifically before the event in question.

NotMyOldRedditName, (edited ) do gaming w I've never seen a company squander as much goodwill as Blizzard.

Lol, service absolutely can be turned on and off based on regions. SpaceX doesn’t turn it on in a region until the local government had an agreement with them. Just because the US gov sees Crimea as Ukraine does not mean SpaceX is obliged to turn it on there.

And no, there was no DoD contract in place at the time. SpaceX was providing services for free out of their own goodwill.

The DoD had a formal contact in place in June 2023, the incident falsely commented on by OP was in 2022.

Edit below

You can go read it all in the wiki yourself but the relevant part

In June 2023, the Department of Defense officialized a contract with Shotwell’s SpaceX to buy Starlink satellite services for Ukraine.[10] The deal includes the Pentagon buying 400-500 Starlink terminals for Ukraine, giving the Pentagon control of where Starlink works inside the country without fear of interruption.[79] The terms of services of the final contract were undisclosed for security issues.[10] Following the contract, The Pentagon stated Starlink was a “vital layer in Ukraine’s overall communications network” amidst “a range of global partners to ensure Ukraine has the capabilities they need.”[10]

Edit: oh, you’re OP. LOL

They lost internet because they went out of range of where it was on. They assumed it was on everywhere.

They strapped them onto boats where the internet was on, and drove them to where the internet was off. Then they begged SpaceX to turn them on, and they refused.

Not turning it on to allow the attack was in line with the terms of service and weapons export rules. SpaceX doesn’t want their consuner service to be considered a weapon.

Russia was getting satellites from 3rd parties and using them in ukraine because they work in ukraine.

Edit: and just to clarify, now that the DoD is managing this for ukraine through a contract with SpaceX, the DoD is allowing its use as a weapon AFAIK.
