  • I had a game where done other players tried to pull the "shopping episode" stuff twice before I had to put my foot down.

    We hadn't even gone on our first quest yet. We had no Gold to buy anything.

  • If it is an industry problem, then this sort of event is usually what snowballs into actual change.

    The tip of this case, I believe, isn't just the caffeine content, but the fact that it:

    • Wasn't exactly labeled as a high-caf drink.
    • Was often next to, or in place of, non-caf drinks.
    • Was marketed as part of an unlimited drinks program.

    While the company isn't required to cater to individuals with very specific tolerances of the simulant, they likely had data available to them that suggests that this outcome was always a possibility, yet they supposedly ran the product until people died.

  • Yeah, but nobody's drinking 3 30 oz coffees in one sitting. Nor is coffee really marketed as a health drink.

    Found this as well:

    A 30-ounce, large-size Panera Charged Lemonade has about 390 milligrams of caffeine, about four times the amount found in a cup of coffee.

  • I made the same switch earlier this year. The only real issues I can recall were learning to update flatpak manually because it holds up the other updates if I don't do that through the Konsole first.

    Granted, that might just be my system, but I generally have had far fewer issues with Tumbleweed than I've ever had with Mint.

    Oh, and my art tablet gets tagged as a game controller for some reason, but it works for what I need it for so I haven't bothered to fix it.

  • I'm on OpenSuse Tumbleweed right now.

    I got tired of updating version numbers on Mint.

    As a side note, just plugged in a years-old random printer/scanner combo my roommate had been trying to find driver's for, for hours, on his windows machine. It just worked immediately in Linux, didn't need to download anything. Suck it, printer!

  • I've found that OpenSuse Tumbleweed is better than both Ubuntu and Linux Mint.

    They set out to make a distro that is kept up to date perpetually instead of managing different versions.

  • Yeah, those corporate types usually can't see past their next quarterly earnings report.

    The fact remains that this playbook failed rather drastically, earlier this year even, with the D&D Franchise making similar headlines, and it wasn't even enough to give them pause.

  • This also could be their original goal, but they tried to pull the "throw it at the wall and see what sticks" and then dialed it back to try and make it not seem as bad.

    Like when the justice system adds on a bunch of superfluous charges in order to make their primary ones stick.

  • Iirc it uses webtorrent, which is a torrent protocol that runs in-browser for the most part.

    Small file live on their servers using end-to-end encryption for the 24 hours.

    Larger files are treated as a peer-to-peer torrent, which means that the tab needs to stay open until your downloadees are done grabbing it.

  • There was a DS game called Custom Robo Arena that was pretty good considering it's hardware and its intended age demographic.

    Screw the final boss though. I could only beat it using the cheesiest spam possible.
