I personally think this would help, but there’s a lot folks online who scream “free speech” when you start talking about verifying age online. And honestly, I don’t know a good solution to balance it

Pretty much all social media has a minimum age of 13 in their ToS. So what exactly are you suggesting? Raising it by 1 year?

Not super related, but a tidbit:

Can you remember when Amazon kept changing the goalposts for Metroid Prime 4? I can, and I’m still annoyed about it to this day.

Depending on Amazon to reveal the release date of a video game (they don’t publish) is a dumb fucking idea

Thank you so much, will check that as soon as I can

Edit: that was really useful, turns out older CPUs are not so feasible with Arc GPUs. Here’s a summary that I found quite simple and elegant from the comment section:

What’s a 8700K considered nowadays? And care to elaborate what driver overhead means? A link would also be fine, just trying to inform myself as much as possible :)

Yeah I’m not in a hurry or anything, just trying to get a feel of what’s in the market

I agree. Intel B580 seems okayish for low end gaming. Got any AMD recommendations to replace a GTX 1070?

Well, time to look for used then. $549 for the lowest end card is almost what the highest used to cost

Depending on the specs, that sounds like it could be fun. Like a quirky street performance thing for artists to draw, print & sell art all at once?

Try F-Droid, there’s some good quality games in their listing, and it’s a lot more transparent than the Play store.

There’s also a lot more indies (whether new or old) that have made it to mobile, like Stardew Valley, Terraria and Dungeon Clawler, so it’s worth checking out the “premium” category on the Play store to find some decent games too

Psychological torture!

PET. THE. CAT.

So Frozen Bells is still free, as well as Super Person Run Deluxe, Easy as Pie and Super Morgan Land.

Unfortunately for me, they do not really appeal to me, but each to their own.

That’s not review bombing, that’s just leaving a negative review because the experience has turned negative.

They should direct their complaints at MS if that’s what broke their game, but I don’t expect the average Assassin’s Creed player to understand the difference.

Saved to check out later. Thanks!

Can’t win them all I suppose! Had a similar thing happen to me recently, and trying to add nuance or explain yourself is usually frowned on for some reason, so it’s best to just move on. Hope your holidays are treating you well!

As someone who’s never used Apple devices I was a bit peeved when my car came with an iPod. I spent days trying out random 3rd party software because I refused to use iTunes. In the end, I settled for CopyTrans software.

You still need to have the iTunes services installed afaik, but you can use this program to put music on your device, pad out the meta info on the MP3 files and sync the playlists without having to open iTunes at all.

Maybe not entirely the answer you were looking for, but it was a workable solution for me after days of trial and error, so I’m hoping I can save you those troubles.

I agree with your guess, and while you say snarkily, I read it as a light hearted jab at the absurdity of the situation.

Relaying meaning, intent and emotion over text is hard.

Funny too!
