Absolutely agree. To copy from my own comment the other day, I guess Red Bull have struck gold twice with Vettel and Verstappen and so they're willing to burn through young drivers as fast as possible to find the next prodigy.

That's probably because it's a PC game that was ported to phones!

I suppose technically yes, but not in normal conversation (in Britain at least). It's not like it's completely nonsensical, but to us school is primary and secondary education, higher education is university; they're distinctly different things and saying "gets kicked out of school" would be way less ambiguous.

I think it was a combination of more space on the cartridge and better compression algorithms. The rumour was that Iwata wrote some miraculous code that produced enough space to include Kanto too, but I think that's apocryphal.

You can tell that Kanto was an afterthought by how easy it is in comparison, it was still great though

I feel every driver (especially a young driver with a history of success) will massively rate themselves and do everything they can to get the best drive possible (and it's that kind of drive that got them there in the first place). It's the older, more experienced team's job to actually develop the young drivers and promote them when they're ready.

Yeah but that can be done after you're finished, definitely shouldn't be part of planning!

Is "blackout" a bingo term for filling every box, or just falling unconscious from overwork?

Because if they don't then you can essentially just give a game away, and that means less sales

How would you make it so you can only share games with your family? As in what technical definition of "family" would you use that can't include your friends?

Americans call uni "school"

Sounds like it's no more DRM than the limits of a physical cartridge, right?

Brand new account immediately starts spamming about cryptocurrency "games"? Seems legit.

Now you know how the Ferrari fans have been feeling for the last twenty years!

I was specifically thinking of the guy in bed with the really long arm!

If you're wanting to build a game, do it for you and not someone else. It's going to be a difficult and thankless task, so make sure that you are enjoying the process!

It's pretty trivial to just keep your card in your pocket and use the bank's website though

Google will continue to publish the source code for Android’s Linux kernel fork, as it is licensed under GPLv2, which mandates source code releases, and is separate from AOSP.

This is about AOSP, which apparently is separate and uses the MIT licence.

I can't see it making a huge difference, Android has always been in that "OSS but not FOSS" area of basically being completely owned and controlled by Google.

Yeah, plenty. Very much depends where you are in the country; whether it's a cool bar, an old man pub, or a spoons-like; and if you're going for a fancy pint or generic mass-produced lager.
