It's going to be based on user votes, and given just how popular that game was I don't think it unlikely to win.

As if Google's results haven't been getting worse

I see. There's stuff such as apkmirror, but an official way to do it is better.

What do you use it for, when you're outside network range?

I've never been in a situation where it felt necessary.

Black Myth Wukong had one of the highest concurrent player counts of Steam of all time. The game was very popular in China.

Meanwhile Astrobot's sales figures were lacklustre, according to some reports.

I largely agree, but the interests have gotten misaligned. Back then it was the threat of regulation which changed things up, I think the governments should do a little more of that.

but... Looks like they don't audit so good, if this article is evidence

That's the whole issue with it being a lobby group. It makes them a ton of money, so they are incentivised against making a rating for it because that would draw more attention/limit sales.

And that's where the whole government lobbying part comes in.

Not entirely sure about the European PEGI, but the American ESRB is funded by the same companies that it regulates. It was created after the outcry about violent games and was the industry self-regulating to avoid the government getting more involved.

It is a lobby group for the industry, for better and in this case very much for worse.

I assume PEGI is little different.

Same for public transit.

A bit of compensation isn't a crazy idea, but it doesn't have to break even with the money it does bring in. It's not like we have a ton of toll roads either, it's not an issue to spend billions on another lane or two.

As the article says; there are different ways to embed YouTube videos, and the method that's "broken" is the one that gives more revenue to the website.

In the case of uBO, just search for "url" in the filter list and you should find it.

Here's a better idea: rather than nerfing the few things causing issues, buff literally everything else. That sounds way more convenient!

The "EA Originals" that they have put out have mostly been fairly solid, Hazelight's games especially so.

Eternals of Aveum had its fair share of flaws, but it was a complete package.

Though, because it is EA, I cannot help but wonder if/when they'll pull the switcharoo

Usually games like Call of Duty or Grand Theft Auto are cited in these instances, but as there are no proven links between video games and real world violence, and Among Us would be a wholly new category of game here.

That probably makes more sense

Is Nick still leading that channel?

I kind of lost interest after Frost made his expose

Canta + Shizuku is what I use as well.

Shizuku is a way to temporarily get semi-root privileges without needing a computer, via wireless debugging to your own phone.

Websites automatically adapting to viewport size is pretty handy, not having to select whether you want the mobile site or not each and every time you load the page is generally considered a good thing.

You may also want the website to adapt to smaller or wider windows, unless you want every website to become one where you manually zoom in and pan around.

Similar things go for language and timezone.

There are various ways to spoof various settings about your browser, through add-ins or otherwise.
