Insurance companies randomly deny claims just to see if you’ll fight it. If you don’t, they’ll know they can deny more if your claims in the future. This is illegal, but if it’s a “bug” in the software or “AI” than they get away with it. Actually it’s harder with AI since people are more skeptical and have already caught them doing it. However this may be due to the AI being trained on the intentionally buggy software.

Wasn’t Zelda always open world? LttP was about as open world as they come back in the day?

At least the alternative warhead doesn’t leave unexploded submunitions.

Which is actually my preference. How do you get per application keyboard settings for Linux? Seems like it’s not usually built in.

What’s the argument for using Angular over other solutions? Let’s say you actually need a SPA.

Could also be “The Titanic calls for aid!” And then we show “and Carpathia will answer”. Truly heroic.

I know some people upgrading Pixels every year because with trade in and sales they only need to pay like $200. I don’t think Sony will take an existing PS5 though…

Dating is like that hill everyone has to climb to get to the top where it’s really nice. But the hike up can really suck for some people. I really really hated dating but had to go through with it.

Wonder if she had just gotten out of a relationship and she was trying to recreate the same thing with a new person (which probably never works).

Wikipedia, ACLU, EFF and my company matches.

And the tune comes from Bruce Hornsby’s The Way It Is which references the civil rights movement. Also sampled by Got Rice.

Supply chain makes the most sense. It’s not like pagers are used super commonly and I doubt they have good margins. Would be pretty easy to sneak something in.

I think the concept of night adjusted eyes are already pretty lost in any city these days. We’ve moved away from sodium lamps so night vision isn’t really activated as all. In this situation, you’d want the driver to see as much as possible and from as far away as possible so they can react to pedestrians. And having used vehicles with both OEM LED and normal halogens, the brighter LED definitely makes it easier to see.

Can probably work with a cyclist with a light. But in any case it’s not as big of a deal as a pedestrian or cyclist. Anyways brighter lights might be safer since the driver can more easily see pedestrians and cyclists.

The adaptive headlights that fix this are not legal in the US, but in other countries they can be used and will selectively dim parts of their light beams that point at other cars.

I mean aren’t those just issues that any business venture has to deal with? I don’t think the game type matters per se. It’s more a problem of poor business decision making. I don’t think there’s anything fundamentally wrong with chasing trends and they certainly had the right budget. $100m+ is hardly chump change but taking 8 years really put them quite behind.

It’s not like any game is completely original anyways. They all take inspiration from games that come before, some more than others.

Also good to wait until all the bugs are worked out. Been playing Cyberpunk recently and it performs really well!

250W in lightning? Does your system need to be installed in a lighthouse and be visible from miles away???

For reference this literal lighthouse light only draws up to 200W: https://www.sealite.com/lighthouse-led-lights/

That’s only true if you’re selling steam keys. Eg you are using Valve’s infrastructure. And they don’t even require the 30% cut in this case. If you sold the game using another infrastructure then you can price it how you want.
