I think Bethesda doesn’t crunch anymore.

Fantastic news for the devs!

Realistically, we’re already past the point where renewables are cheaper than nuclear, so it doesn’t make much sense to go into it now.

20 years ago would be a different story.

Yeah, I think you are right in that idea. Realistically they will be clumped in high wind areas within that 5000km².

One turbine for every 12.5km²? Seems like a pretty reasonable spread accounting for space in between and geographical features they may have to avoid.

I was pleasantly surprised by Super Mario Wonder. It had the same feel of fun and variety that the older games did.

So people are morons?

I agree with your point about teenagers work interfering with their schooling, but that’s not quite correct about the mandatory age.

It’s only mandatory to 18 in New Brunswick and 17 in Manitoba.

In the rest of Canada the age is 15 to 16. (16 in Saskatchewan.

Arma 3?

Haven’t played it personally, I’m not big on milsim games, but it’s got a decent following. Might not have the accessibility options though.

I’ve heard good things about Battlebits, for what it’s worth it seems decent.

Does it require a PSN account to use the adaptor?

When Canada gets as used to them as Australia, you will start to see that sentiment become commonplace.

If half the state doesn’t burn down, that’s a good fire season in Aus.

They do. There are plenty of indie Devs.

The reason why everyone doesn’t do it is because it requires significant capital to be able to support a dev team through production for a number of years.

Not to mention they will still have to deal with publishers potentially fucking them over, as shown with the Helldivers 2 PSN fiasco.

Usually analog sticks, but it depends on the game. Something like shovel knight is better with the dpad.

I just happen to play more games that are better with analog sticks.

Well you have to consider it’s 7 years old. It was incredible in 2016.

Yeah, righto cunt, I’m heading to the bottle-o to grab some grog, I reckon I can drop by after for a bit of a chinwag.

True, but at least the headline is completely factual and it’s statistics. The numbers comes from Statistics Canada, which is impartial.

Here’s a CBC article reporting the same: https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/canadan-gdp-february-1.7189053

Not to mention they are the single most populous nation on Earth.

Statistically speaking, there’s just more Indian people than any other nationality.

Feels very undemocratic for cabinet to be able to remove democratically elected officials that they disagree with.

Balatro, the Joker Poker has me deep in it’s clutches.

Love it.

Such an incredible gaming experience with absolutely no words.

I also love Abzū, which is kind of like a sequel to it, but also not really.

I did try and get my girlfriend (non-gamer) to play Journey and she did not enjoy it at all, which made me realise a large part of why I love it is that it doesn’t hold your hand, and it assumes you are adept at gaming in some way.

In other news, water is wet.

Like, no shit, an incredibly wealthy guy wants to continue avoiding taxes on his profits? Say it ain’t so!

Looks pretty cool. Hope it lives up to the original and is successful for the studio.

We should prioritise immigrants with construction skills then. There should be some within the hundreds of thousands of applicants.

Plenty of them still do, I’ve got friends who are builders and electricians and they’re making nearly double what I do in an office job.

They should actually build some public housing, instead of just handing more money to developers through third party non-profits.

Build more public housing.

10 hour response time? That is absolutely absurd to start with.

Then when they do show up they do nothing and leave again? What is even happening?

Canadians who support the return of the death penalty primarily cite four reasons: Deterrence (50 per cent), a punishment that fits the crime (also 50 per cent), saving taxpayers money and the costs associated with having murderers in prison (48 per cent) and closure for the families of murder victims (47 per cent).

48% of respondents aren’t aware that it’s more expensive to execute someone due to the appeals process.

Scummy move by the teacher for sure, but 1.6 million dollars is an insane amount.

Love when that mult mults.

It’s crazy how I feel like I barely notice the music when playing but it just pops into my head throughout the day.

I had to play on mute the other day when my headphones died and it was like a completely different game with out the background music and the dings to give me that dopamine rush.

How is a plastic bag more environmentally friendly than a cardboard carton?

Call me crazy, but I think if a game can be “retired” by Warner Brothers (or another megacorp), and the dev doesn’t control it anymore, then it’s not really an “indie”.

Because YouTube and Twitch are notorious for reducing ad payments or demontising creators. Have you forgotten about the adpocalypse already? Patreon also increased their fees with very little notice in 2019.

It’d honestly be an idiotic move to not take a video sponsor if they’re offered, because that is guaranteed and likely upfront, supplemental income to support the creation of videos.

Nebula is collectively creator owned, so it’s the only one of those that won’t fuck over creators for more money, but as I said, not a lot of people are paying for subscriptions. It’s small, the per-creator payouts are probably even less than Youtube.

And finally, the real answer: Man’s gotta eat. Simple.

All of that considered, I didn’t even see the sponsor ads you’re complaining about because I have Sponsorblock skip them automatically.

Well you can watch it ad free on Nebula, as linked in the video description. I honestly can’t hate on him for that decision, he needs to eat as much as the rest of us, and unless we’re paying for a Nebula subscription, video sponsors are the only way to do that.

It’s a parody of The Witness, haha.

“Pokemon with guns on PC.”

That’s a great sales pitch.

It’s naive to think AI is going to disrupt the status quo from the rich. It’s just going to make the rich richer. Just look at who owns the AI.

Satiates societally ingrained Petro-Masculinity for patriarchal men who are insecure about their status as a man in the modern age.

Seconding 8bitdo.

Very satisfied with mine. Not the ultimate, but the SN30 Pro+. Has no issues connecting to my PC or switch, no mechanical issues so far either, after about 4 years.

It’s not weird at all, he owns a car company.
