  • I haven't played in a few years but this is how I remember the system working: RDO matches people into separate lobbies based on what version of the game they're running and this check is done by hashing one or more files in the install directory. By adding junk data to one of those files you more or less guarantee that you'll only ever encounter other people who have the same junk data added. It's basically the dark souls password system with extra steps.

  • We have 1278 paid games that are included and 55 that are excluded from family sharing. Seemed to be mostly ubi, rockstar and ea games. Games that you claimed while they had a limited 100% discount are also excluded. The last few are live-service or mmo games.

    "Family sharing" is now a feature listed on every store page. Same place as singleplayer, trading cards, cloud saves and similar. As far as I know no major changes has happened in which games support it, but that may change now that sharing gets more attention.

  • the reviews used for the star rating is picked based on similarity to "you", so looking at the same app from different locations or from different devices will produce different scores. Still, 1.7 is extremely low

  • Imagine "roko's basilisk", but extended into an entire philosophy. It's the idea that "we" need to anything and everything to create the inevitable ultimate super-ai, as fast as possible. Climate change, wars, exploitation, suffering? None of that matters compared to the benefits humanity stands to gain when the ultimate super-ai goes online

  • I don't think that has been the case for at least a full console generation, maybe more.

    Look at the rise and fall of pre-order goodies to get a rough estimate of when publishers really, really wanted you to buy the game day 1 (and when it stopped mattering as much)

  • to the best of my knowledge even after this ruling, you would still need to be sterilized to get your gender marker changed as the requirement of having genitalia that matches your preferred gender is still in effect. You also need to be 18+, unmarried and have no children who are minors.

  • 60fps complaints go back to the dark days of 360/ps3 ports where HD resolutions on the consoles meant high framerate was no longer a viable option there. Since AAA games started using console as lead platform pc became saddled with 30fps caps as well. It possibly happened even earlier, but that was the time where I started noticing it.

  • The Fitbit Versa series give me the vibe that this is where pebble could have headed if they hadn't gone under. Since Fitbit bought the Pebble estate I guess that's plausible. If you care more about health than fitness I would look into the Fitbit "Sense" series. They have most of the fitness options from Versa but also ECG and stress tracking.

    No 3rd party apps, but they're pretty good on battery life (My partner's Versa 3 will last 11 days on a charge).
