But he was never taught what laws there are!

GUI is a generic swiss army knife. It’s easy to introduce to someone, and it has a whole array of tools ready for use. However, each of those tools is only half-decent at its job at best, and all of the tools are unwieldy. The manual is included, but it mostly tells you how to do things that are pretty obvious.

CLI is a toolbox full of quality tools and gadgets. Most people who open the box for the first time don’t even know which tools they’re looking for. In addition, each tool has a set of instructions that must be followed to a T. Those who know how to use the tools can get things done super quickly, but those who don’t know will inevitably cause some problems. Oh, but the high-detail manuals for all the tools are in the side compartment of the toolbox too.

I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad thing. Subtle but unusual is a good way to describe it.

However, I would like to point out that if it is their branding, then the character appearing is an advertisement for the service. It’s just not very conventional or effective advertising, but they’re not making money from a vast majority of implementations, so it’s not very egregious anyway.

Yeah, it seems entirely optional. It’s not like manually removing the Anubis character will revoke your access to the code. However, I still do find it a bit weird that they’re asking for that.

I just can’t imagine most companies implementing Anubis and keeping the character or paying for the service, given that it’s open source. It’s just unprofessional for the first impression of a company’s website being the Anubis devs’ manga OC…

I don’t think microtransactions are inherently bad, they are just used in the most greedy, money-grabbing ways.

There are some free-to-play games that don’t restrict your access to any gameplay at all as a free player, which can only be subsidized by microtransactions. If it’s just cosmetics, and they’re priced fairly, I wouldn’t feel any concern over it.

I say this as someone who will put 100 hours into a f2p game and maybe spend $10-20 on a skin or two. I feel that it’s fair to spend that much after reaping so many hours of play.

If it isn’t stimulating enough, simply play both characters at the same time - mouse and keyboard with hands, controller with feet :)

I use spacebar for run and shit to jump.

Explosive diarrhea propulsion?

So long as your own lawyer isn’t doing the same, of course :)

If you like Jak, you’ll have a blast with Ratchet and Clank. Lots of good ol action platforming.

Klonoa 2 and Spongebob Battle for Bikini Bottom might also be worth looking into. I specifically remember finding tons of shortcuts in SBBB that were probably unintended, but that game also got a remaster in the last few years.

I would maybe suggest modding your defence to a high level, unlocking defence perks, and spamming block. The combat certainly becomes more manageable as you level up, unless you’re simply fighting a group of people by yourself. Then it never gets easier.

I don’t know about this, but only because Steam has a very unique position in their market. Lots of intense loyalists for Steam means long-term projects yield hype and reputation.

For example, the Steam Deck was a high cost high impact long-term project, and it wasn’t even in the interest of leading the handheld gaming market. It still brought them a lot of good press, and it also spearheaded the adoption of handheld gaming PCs - whether running SteamOS, Windows, or other linux distros - most of which are using Steam as the primary gaming library.

They just know that line going up steadily is more valuable than line going up exponentially until people get sick of your shit.

True, but one is a situation, and the other is a person. I didn’t know that the existence of Xi Jinping was a controversial idea in China…

Do you mean abx.digitalfeed.net?

NCIX = NZXT?

Nobody toucha my spaghett

I like how he went from the Caesar cut and bland shirt to the style of what current-day 16-20 year old guys are rockin.

And by “like,” I mean that I’m glad he still looks uncanny despite how normal his new style is, because he’s a POS and nobody should sympathize with him.

VPARPAPPA The Rapper?

It will always be weird to me that microsoft sells some games both on the microsoft store app and the xbox app, but other games exclusively through the xbox app.
