  • As much as there's an Activision fuckup here, there's also a Hasbro fuckup. When you do a deal like this with a publisher, part of that agreement should include provisions for the source code - either directly sending it or if Activision didn't want to share its proprietary code, indirectly via an Escrow service.

  • Sure, it's not an easy thing to achieve for sure, but I won't lose sleep over them losing revenue because they can't figure it out quickly enough.

    Even moreso where it comes to media that's just not available any more. If you, a content IP owner, don't make that content available for purchase, then you have only yourself to blame if people pirate it.

  • All media content under all services.

  • I pay for a smattering of VoD services, I don't lose sleep over watching something that isn't available on them.

    If corporate greed didn't force a hundred different services on us, then it might be different.

  • Or he meant "quiet" and got autocorrected.

  • I'm really trying to understand what's going on here in a way that makes sense, even if it's a twisted kind of sense.

    My best guess is that each of these burners are a different size and some have multiple rings and that by turning the knob left (Anti-clockwise), you're going from smaller number of rings to larger number of rings - however, the rings start at their highest heat level. So looking at the bottom right dial as an example, the first "Notch" on the left is the smallest burner on the highest setting, then as you turn left more, it'll dial down that burner until you get to the second ring on the burner - starting at full power for that second burner and continuing to lower power until you get to the 3rd ring, then it's same again for the 4th ring.

    Is that right? am I even close? I don't understand why you'd go from smallest burner to highest burner anti-clockwise, but go from lowest burner-power to highest clockwise. That still doesn't make sense to me.

  • Mine has similar settings but they're named in ways which actually tells you why you'd want them that way: "Ready to Iron", "Ready to Hang" and "Extra Dry", things like that.

  • I used to feel this way too, but now that phones are starting to come with 128GB or 256GB of storage by default, I'm finding I just don't need it.

  • It's a lie anyway, LinkedIn isn't better on the app. Nothing can make it better, it's just shit.

  • I haven't seen any bullying by vegetarians at all

  • Lemmy's userbase is currently skewed very left wing, many people on the left are vegan or vegetarian or at least care about climate change enough to see reduction in meat consumption as a necessity to fixing it.

    So it shouldn't be too much of a surprise that you see more anti-meat discourse.

    Disclaimer: I eat meat

  • A Blockchain is part of a solution but not the whole solution. A Blockchain is for all intents and purposes a digital paper trail, something that high can be audited and cannot be modified later.

    The problem is how do you use that system with a sceptical public that doesn't understand or trust it. A technical enough person night understands it, but to the vast majority of people it may as well be "trust me, bro". It's a lot easier to trust a physicial piece of paper.

    Not to mention that an important part of voting is anonymity, which a Blockchain doesn't really give you. How do you validate that a vote on the chain is legitimate without some kind of trail back to an actual human?

  • Yeah, it's very powerful, it just needs a bit of a UX refresh.

  • Yeah to echo other comments in here, it sounds like there's some kind of config issue somewhere. The hue integration should "just work" and it's where I get most of my own utility from.

    I will say though, HA isn't as user friendly as it could be. It has come a long way and it's getting better (and there is definitely nothing better at the moment), but there are still some gremlins in there that require you to hand edit config files or understand obscure device names and things like that.

  • Stick with it, the Yakuza games are all a little bit jank in their execution but the story and characters make up for it.

  • Your post was needlessly condescending and you need to do better.
