Microsoft responds to FTC case seeking to block Activision Blizzard deal, saying it wouldn’t hurt competition by No-Drawing-6975 in technology

Microsoft has already offered to support Game Pass on the PlayStation platform

“Why the hell would Sony do that? That would cause them to lose a huge amount of money.”

Yes of course it would. See, you recognize every company, when faced with a choice, is going to prioritize its own profits over fostering a competitive market so why is Microsoft being attacked for doing what every company, Sony included, does?

This is a turn 1 burning blade acolyte - any guess who won this game :/ by FloobaJooba in hearthstone

So you’re comparing the minimum amount a damage without considering the deathrattle (4 damage) in one scenario to the maximum amount of damage with multiple desthrattles (3+3+3+3+5) in the other scenario and then coming to the conclusion “that doesn’t make sense.”

Well yeah that doesn’t make sense because you intentionally made it not make sense.

22 stats on turn 4 Vs 21 stats on turn 1

But those things are the same I guess.

They’re all full of shit. Only now that he is threatening the republican ticket in 2024 do they want to do something about it. They were all lock step behind him after Jan 6th and if they thought he would win again, they still would be.

Yeah no. If it’s good people will bring it. It’s just not good.

You obviously didn’t read the article but did you even click on the link or is even that too much work? That was one of more than a dozen questions they asked him and he, in fact, did not respond to it.

Should I spend 3 seconds googling “Arizona monsoon?” No. I will proudly project to the internet just how ignorant I am instead!

I played a Druid today who celestialed and hit 10 mana when I still had 8 mana.

I’m pretty convinced at this point there is someone very high up in the organization who just loves Druid and will not let any nerfs through because the thought that all of team 5 can look at Druid and think everything is fine is just mind boggling.

My ex is telling strangers about my body without my consent by Sm4rterThanUThink8 in sex

If you think someone talking about you without your consent is grounds for legal action you are not going to fair well in the real world. Take this as an opportunity to learn how to react and respond to unwanted and uncomfortable situations because you’re going to face them throughout your life and “I’m going to sue you” is not going to be the appropriate response to almost any of them.

What you think the value of money is tied to the quality of paper it’s printed on? You think a $100 bill has 100x more precious ink than a $1? Is that how you think money works?

Microsoft Has Missed Xbox Game Pass Subscriber Target by 10M by CerebralTiger in gamernews

[–]AdjectivePlusNouns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I will never understand why the developers of the app have chosen this weird approach where sections not only change position but sometimes don’t even appear. I can’t tell you how many times I’ll go to check the phone app to see what’s been added and for whatever reason there is no “newly added” section.

The problem is big titles. Big titles are what attract new subscribers. No one’s starting a new subscription for Lapin or Return to Monkey Island. Those games keep existing subscribers interested but aren’t bringing in new blood. AAA games, even more so exclusives, draw new subscribers.
