It’s probably because your shoes are too pointy. We should all stop wearing pointy shoes, we aren’t fooling anyone, we don’t ride horses everywhere…

Streamers kinda brings that connection back

In a parasocial kinda way…?

One of the devs stream ids from the decompiled code:

Why am I not surprised that they’re Russian 😅

I’m no expert but I suspect you could put more empty into that.

That’s not a mug, that’s a cup 😂

or you burn your house down.

Probably only if your mugs are made of wood 😂

I think most electric kettles are a bit slower there due to normal outlets only being 110V, but not all kitchens have 20A outlets(probably most do nowadays?), so the kettles made for the USA market tend to be 1.6KW so they can run off a 15A outlet if needed, whereas ones made for 240V countries tend to be 2KW.

Should still be way faster to use a kettle than an air fryer though as I’d assume the air frier would likely be limited to 1.6KW too?

Why not both? Maybe also make the table and chairs out of solar panels!

You have to convince a computer that you’re a computer?

With different prompts it might do the opposite…

There’s plenty of products with viable business models that have undergone enshittification in recent years…

You wouldn’t download a marijuana!

The competition might not be real right now, but they’re smart enough to know it’ll eventually catch up if they don’t stay one step ahead.

😂

It’s not, it’s the site that was used to make the map in the post screenshot.

Not saying they should have to, just saying it would be better if it had it.

I don’t really enjoy the way hardness is implemented in souls like games: long health bars just make the game take longer and make it boring for me, so I don’t play them. That’s OK if they don’t want my money 🤷

I know there’s also the argument that a lot of players wouldn’t bother with the hard mode if easy was available and you’re denying the players that experience if you implement easy mode, but I think it’s a flawed argument because if you add any small incentive to play on hard mode such as a simple cosmetic reward that’s enough to incentivise most players to do it.

But yeah it definitely sounds like thier test for 200k players probably had bigger instances provisioned than what they ended up using in the production release 😅

You’d think they’d be able to do some sort of auto scaling when demand goes up though… 😅

Dunno what the sales for the new one are like, but the 2020 ms flight sim had a lot more mass appeal than any older flight sims, but maybe a lot of xbox players were put off by the pre download requirements?

Also when it’s on game pass the barrier to entry is a lot lower, as a lot of people might install it with the intention of only playing it for like 5 minutes to see if they can see thier house or something, which they probably wouldn’t pay full price on steam to do 😅

They probably mean cheat trainers, as opposed to chat codes(extra software that alters the games memory while it’s running), which can often include other malware.

You don’t have to buy it from steam, might’ve been more users from gamepass and xbox than steam?
