  • Haven't played Humankind yet, but Amplitude's previous Civ/4X-like "Endless Legend" was amazing and very fresh take on the genre. And it looked like Firaxis were already trying to copy some of it in Civ 6, so I'm not surprised this trend continues.

  • The only time Disney tried to play the tropes somewhat straight again was the Princess and the Frog, and THAT was a major flop (though racism probably also played a part in that).

    Probably, I watched because of my kid recently, and it striked me as one of the better Disney movies. In fact, it's a pretty awesome one compared to recent bigger hits like Frozen and etc.

  • Z = the Russian version of calling people Nazis because they opposed Putin.

    This is the first time I hear that, do you have any source?

    All I know about "Z" and Russia is they used it to mark some of their divisions early in the war, and it later became a rallying sign for them, for supporting that same war and Putin. So quite the favorable thing for them, even if it's used only in war propaganda.

  • I agree on the outdated UI, but at least it gives you a ton of options that official apps would never allow you, or babysit you too much to offer.

    I've literally used Calibre 2-3 times, and while the UI seemed daunting at first, it was logical and did did its job quite fast when figured out. And I usually don't need to use it afterwards for another long period.

  • Also it doesn't mention much of a "peace plan", these are just Trump's terms to "reparate" him for all the aid the US sent to Ukraine. Ukraine didn't sign this exact deal because it didn't even offer them any security guarantees in return. Clickbait journalism.

  • Well, on a screen so small, you'd always be limited in what can be shown. I definitely can add events to my Calendar on Galaxy Watch 6 though, the problem is if I'd ever want to do it from the watch or check them on it. I use it for reminders and notifications checking mostly, personally.

    Maybe it's way more usable with Bixby or other voice assistants, but I'm really put off by the privacy and battery-draining aspects of those.

  • This seems like the most likely intended consequence to me. They probably know their userbase well, and actual humans declining aren't gonna be swayed to stay by a price hike. Those bots, on the other hand...

  • Yeah, keep X on and pile up the multi-million fines if they don't comply with laws. That's the only thing companies care about - something eating up their profits.

    And if they keep not complying - then ban it altogether, like Brazil did. I prefer to recognize and ban it for the illegal activities it does, not because some folks don't like it and banded together against it.

  • I generally don't pre-order, probably won't this time too as release has creeped so close anyway. But definitely buying it full price, just waiting for some day-1 reviews to check if it needs patches or not. I love the STALKER series, played them all and I definitely feel I own GSC some more money for the FPSs I've most enjoyed in the last 20 years or so.
