I just cancelled my premium subscription renewal last night. Get fucked Sony

And thus I canceled my premium plan. I barely play online as it is, if I want I’ll just go to steam.

Absolute bullshit of a price gouge

As a developer myself, I just find it funny as fuck that people just spout off about shit like this. clearly do not understand what they are talking about.

Imagine the support nightmare alone if the dev team is dismissed on release. For example, Baldur’s gate just released 1000+ bugfix patch 20-some days after release, good luck doing that with a brand new team.

Especially today with things like day1/week1 patches which have become the usual almost, cutting the dev team loose on release would just be wild from any informed perspective

You realize these studios operate in capitalist societies right?

The developers don’t deserve to be paid? Because that’s the crux of it, no sell no profit, no profit no workers. Bye bye studio and any future art because we all are trapped in this capitalist nightmare. Do their families not deserve to be supported for their work?

I’m struggling to understand the motivation of your comment. You seem upset that a studio that worked for many years paying many developers project managers artists etc to create this game is selling the result of their hard work and investments? Where do you think they got the funds to build their latest game? Perhaps from the previous games, content, merch they have produced and sold?

How exactly is a studio to function if they simply hand out their hard work for free? How exactly are they to hire quality people if they are unable to make a profit from their primary product, the games that the developers and artists pour their heart and souls into?

I mean, shit, yeah all information, art, everything should be able to exist without tying it to finance but that’s not the world we live in and it’s not the world these developers work in.

So… what’s your point??

Nobody has said that outside of some random comment but okay

If people are still playing within meta’s walls they are lost and won’t be leaving anytime soon.

But all my friends are on there! M-m-my followers!!!

They didn’t miss the boat, they straight up ignored it. Nothing has changed so why should their poorly reasoned decision?

Twitter did have real use and now it doesn’t. Who FUCKING cares???

What does X do that mastodon doesn’t? There is much mastodon can do that x can’t. Where is the problem, outside of having to use a different url than x.com? People are resilient as are their resistance movements.

They can survive a platform shift, there is no loss here.

Anything Twitter can do so can mastodon. Resistance movements can move forward without x with little issue. Twitter isn’t and never was special it was simply there at the right time. It’s not anymore and that’s okay because we are not helpless without some shit social media site.

Power to the people not corps.

Attorney at laaaaaawwwwwwwwww

I don’t disagree but stolen is a bit of a stretch

Why didn’t the gaming in bedpan out? I have the same situation as you except I use it to game for 20 min to maybe an hour max while I’m chilling in bed before sleep

I’ve found some stands to really help that to be comfortable, mainly looking into “belly stands”

I switched long ago and never looked back

You still owe me 20 world coins!!!

Yeah nah

Oh wow!! Cool concept, at least I know what I’m looking for. Thank you!

Mine came 2 weeks ago and it was hot af then too. YMMV tho, mine arrived quite quickly given my location in the PNW

Could you share the belly stand you’re talking about

It’s not all bad, you’re right. It’s just that this

To use Beeper, you must give the app permission to send and receive messages through other chat networks using your account credentials. By definition, this may be less secure than using other chat apps alone, especially encrypted chat apps like Signal.

Makes me lose interest. I understand the motivation behind it, yes they encrypt e2e but it’s still sacrificing security (or maybe I should say increasing risk)

Self hosting is a good alternative option!

And the cost is simply your privacy and security
