A simple map of population density across the US should clearly show that lebensraum is not the problem indeed. It's more a question of places that are both desirable for the opportunities they offer, while being affordable.
Well, it's Far Cry with all the best bits of gameplay, better traversal (still no free climbing a la Assassin's Creed, but the wall jumping is fantastic), with absolutely amazing graphics, as expected.
So, yeah, nothing revolutionary, a bit boring system-wise, but solid fun all around so far.
Yes, I'm well aware security is a team sport. All it takes is one person to make a mistake, once. I still remember that the Iloveyou virus penetrated our network back when I was in university, through the Unix lecturer...
Still fucking annoying though.
Although I do realise most of my annoyance comes from shitty configuration and poor human decisions. Oh, let's run a full deep scan at 15:00 everywhere Friday. It's not like the students will need to use those machines during their Comp. Science lab, right?
I cannot express how much I loathe antivirus software. Mostly it's been because it has been nothing but trouble in my work environment, without ever catching anything, for over twenty years.
It's the modern corporate snake oil.
People discovering the Internet is such a beautiful thing. Imagine telling them there is a site where people don't even have a nickname, or avatar, yet you'll find the most amazing threads (amongst all the shit). Amon is a pretty cool dude, if you ask me
I used to use the microwave because I was a kid and my family didnt have one of those fancy electric kettles. But then I moved to Ireland and never again can I live without one.
Last time I actually wanted to give money to creators was The Witcher series after finishing 3. It was so mind blowing. And I still had two DLC to play (still not played B&W). And I did not pay full price, because by the time I had finished 2, the third was regularly on sale.
But then I remembered they already are choke full of money and my extra money isn't gonna go to the devs doing crunch time, it'll just be more money in their money pool.
So I thought, this time, I'll pre-purchased CP2077 because I absolutely loved the rpg as a teen and they can't fick that up. But then of course I remembered not to be an idiot. So I waited for a day one full price purchase but well, they fucked that up, didn't they. And they still made money hand over fist!
What I'm saying is, he can go eat a full bag of dicks. I'll keep voting with my wallet. And that means good games get my money, good devs also get my money, and that means he's never gonna get a dime from me, ever again.
What a muppet.
You know who I would actually like to tip? JAV actresses I have wanked to for donkey years without ever purchasing one of their DVDs. I reckon most of those ladies work harder that this twat and deserve more love. And money. But like Gaben said, verily, it's all a question of access.
Context is always useful, though. Because sometimes the person asking has gone down the wrong path and you could help them see the problem from a completely different angle.
Or maybe that context will let you know that yes, they have to use that ancient tech because that's what they have to use at work and no they can't install the latest fancy tech that does it so easily...
