That's the stretch goal, making it look like an accident is at 80 million.

If you visit the official website of krafton https://www.krafton.com/en/ you should get this pop up:

Basically, Krafton claims that the 3 founders they fired did not do their job in overseeing the project, leading to a game without any direction. Since the game would not meet their standards, they decided to rework a lot and push the release date back.

This is an official statement of a company, meaning they can be (and if I read it correctly have been) sued for slander should they lie here. So a legal department looked over this and decided "Yep, we can claim that they abandoned responsibilities, we can prove that in court". Whether or not this is actually true or just an attempt to regain public opinion, it's a real shitshow.

Thank you, comment that summarises what's in the article, I was afraid I might have to read the article to get the full picture.

This, too, is c/fuckcars.

I genuinely thought this was about chess for a second.

I believe you are acting way too definitive about something rather unknowable.

For example, what is Aphantasia then?

I'm in the "inner monologue" camp. Most of what I think materialises as thought words. I don't have to move anything in my throat to do that unlike OP though, I can think in words without mumbling to myself.

But I know the voice can't be all. It's difficult for me to think in words while actively saying something, but I can have new thoughts while speaking. Sometimes, I get interrupted in thinking mid-sentence, but then I return to that sentence to finish it because... it's just satisfying? It's not that I learn anything new.

I feel like I don't have very much imagination any more. Its hard to produce images in my mind, not impossible but I do have to concentrate - remembering images is easier.

Weirdly, way harder to me: imagining a voice. Inner voice is what I sound like to myself, I can remember and replay songs and quotes as I heard them, but having any voice say anything is hard, especially female voices. Went through some examples in my head couldn't make anyone say anything - until I thought to make different tf2 mercs sing "Oh Canada", that somehow worked despite me definitely not having heard that before. Brains are weird.

OpenTTD. Trains go vroom.

Had it on my radar for a while, didn't think I would like it this much. Boy was I wrong, my sleep is as badly scheduled as my trains.

Ad blockers

Discord, YouTube and Twitch. Even if I don't count 1 because I don't really build any online presence, all 3 together probably count as having mainstream social media no matter how strict the definition.

For purely economic reasons, the less often I need to buy it, the more I allow myself to splurge.

So vegetables and my go to drink I consume everyday are bought the absolute cheapest, but that spice blend for those veggies lasts me months so I really don't care if there's a cheaper alternative.

Of course, expensiveness is measured per kg/litre, paying a bit more up front is always worth it if it means a lower price per kg (if you can consume it before it goes bad).

Fairly certain what you describe is what they meant with inflation proof, compared to a fixed price.

In any case, I imagine most Patreon creators have over time adjusted their reward tiers, or gathered more Patreon supporters to keep up with how Inflation affects their costs, thus giving more to Patreon. Both the company and creators would benefit here.

Instead, increasing the (average) percentage just helps the company at the cost of creators. To make their pay keep up with inflation, they still need to either increase the number of supporters or the price of rewards, so the company benefits doubly. Edit: forgot, this change is currently only for new creators. Existing accounts do not need to adjust their pricing (yet)

There seem to be enough alternatives that only charge a 5% fee, so this might just lose Patreon money if enough Creators see this as a step too far.

The reason there are fewer child births in the US since the 90s is mainly the reduction of pregnancies in the demographic "25 and younger". They didn't made a conscious choice, looking at their abacus and evaluating the state of the world. They slipped into it and were forced to make it work. Interestingly, they then still had children later in life as well, for more complex and personal reasons.

It seems to me, that if you give woman the choice, they choose not be pregnant at the cost of their career.

If we don't have to have played it - the Zelda Cdi games, for obvious reasons. My most recent subscribtion is an active YTP channel.

The edutainment games presented by Germany's beloved children's show host Peter Lustig, published by Terzio.

The tie-in video games to both his TV series Löwenzahn as well as the Swedish Gary Gadget (Mulle Meck) books were elevated by his voice clips and I still quote them regularly. They really put a lot more effort into these games than anything I've ever experienced, there was fucking free DLC for Gary Gadget if you visited their website and had your father put some files in the right folder.

The worlds themselves both star an excentric man tinkering on inventions, but while sometimes fantastical they are more grounded that the world of Peterson and Findus. They teach children about community and physics, similar to the book "the way things work" - guess who presented its animated show of the same name in Germany?

Link him Bill Wurtz's "history of the entire world I guess" and tell him to skip to 2:08

As long as they use practice safe sex, it really is none of my business.

It really is up to him if he wants to smell like roses or not, it's totally understandable to pass on that.

If only he wasn't such a bitch about expressing that preference though.

There are a lot of reasons why old nuclear was profitable, but nowadays:

• Construction is more expensive
• Regulations are in place (EU perspective)
• There is less of a demand for enriched Uranium

As long as these things don't change, I don't think we'll ever see cheap nuclear power again. They are designed to last decades, so they also just turn a profit decades into the future, and investors don't like that. You can blame energy liberalisation once again.

I have to imagine this peanut butter was intended to feed animals, probably for hunting.

So it isn't even particularly sweet and processed at a lower standard than the stuff the husband was used to. But what do I know, maybe he always intended to bait hogs with it.
