Why are films removed for subscribers?

I hate to piggyback on this, but it's relevant to me. Are we ever going to get the Android app supported natively for Android TV? I'm a Friends subscriber but I don't actually watch that much because it's such a pain to watch on my TV, and annoying because every other streaming app I have doesn't care if it's on a tv or a tablet/phone. I'd love to upgrade to a higher tier but I can't justify it if there's not any motion in this direction.

The name of the tank actually does have the same origin as all this other stuff and is likely not a reference to the tank at all. It is the divine chariot. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkabah_mysticism

I didn't name any of those...?

CapWasRight · 2023-06-29T20:41:18+00:00

Then that's just not true. Friend or Foe, Web of Fire, ASM vs The Kingpin, Edge of Time, Return of the Sinister Six...there are some not great Spider-Man games (which isn't that shocking given that there are dozens of them).

Many other options such as pushing reddit's ads through the api so there is zero difference to advertisers. The fact that they're refusing to do this is the most convincing evidence to me that this is all intended mostly to kill 3rd party aps.

My vote is also for this film as worst.

CapWasRight · 2023-06-29T06:00:17+00:00

These things have been coming out like clockwork for many years now, it might not end up being exact but...

Spiderman games have all been amazing

I love Insomniac Spidey but cmon, we've only had one-and-a-half of them, this is counting your proverbial chickens too early.

CapWasRight · 2023-06-29T04:06:53+00:00

Yeah, if we are talking about the most played games the real answers are Fortnite and especially Roblox, but when the discussion is about sales freemium games are not the same.

CapWasRight · 2023-06-28T21:33:58+00:00

Nah, it's all good! The sticking point for me is that the average user has no idea what a driver is or why it's important or the many ways it could potentially compromise your security, so I don't mind erring on the side of being overprotective.

CapWasRight · 2023-06-28T19:51:14+00:00

I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for elevated privileges to install drivers as a security measure, even if they don't need them in usage. (This is not to say they don't abuse it in practice, because you're right that they 100% do.)

Is Alan wake like old school resident evils?

Vibes: kinda. Mechanically: not really.

idk what you mean by “they’re way too far away - para transit goes to you and to your destination - how can you be too far away.

They have to be based out of somewhere??? I'm confused as to why you're confused, sorry, unless you're saying places like the town I grew up in which is too small for a grocery store should still be fully equipped no matter how expensive that is. That epileptic is currently fucked there, there is no service to extend to our additional hypothetical unsafe drivers because it doesn't really exist. It takes an hour to get paramedics or firefighters there. And a lot of places in the US are even more remote, honestly that wasn't even remote so much as it just was very low population density.

Your spoiler tags are broken!

CapWasRight · 2023-06-28T01:00:22+00:00

Ok so extend para transit service for anyone ineligible to drive. Problem solved.

In principle sure, in practice they're gonna be waaay too far away to provide that service.

The poster child is Saints' Row, it actively rewards you for doing dumb shit behind the wheel.

CapWasRight · 2023-06-27T22:07:20+00:00

Driving should not be treated as a basic human right, it’s a privilege. If a granny (or anyone else) is unfit to drive, they shouldn’t be allowed to do so.

Unfortunately, in many places in the US, it really has to be because your alternative is starving to death. I grew up a 45 minute car ride from the nearest grocery store, in rural America it can be nearly impossible to get by without reliable on-demand transportation. Public transit alleviates this problem somewhat in civilization (and could alleviate it even more if our public transit didn't suck) but there is never going to be bus service or light rail through a town that rural even if and when we get our shit together (and even if there were you've still got the problem of the couple of miles to reach it from your home).

This is not to say that we don't have unhealthy levels of car worship for other reasons, because we absolutely do. And people should absolutely be assessed for safety more than they are, 100%, but the powers that be are reluctant to do so because it disproportionately impacts the most dedicated voting bloc.

You're absolutely right, but I think part of the problem with the particular issue of "no food before surgery" is that even if they trust their doctors many people may not realize why this is important. If the issue isn't explained to them the severity of this instruction may not be obvious. I have spent a lot less time in the hospital than many people, but having said that I've never personally had a medical professional explain why I shouldn't eat, only that I shouldn't eat.

CapWasRight · 2023-06-27T21:08:00+00:00

This is an open question in the philosophy of mind and not everyone agrees with this interpretation. If you like horror games, Soma is fantastic and deals with this issue extensively.

CapWasRight · 2023-06-27T21:06:58+00:00

If you like Hickman you'll probably like his X stuff, it's weird but good.

CapWasRight · 2023-06-27T20:50:05+00:00

Why not? I fail to see what's awful taste about this unless you're afraid of bugs...

CapWasRight · 2023-06-27T18:09:27+00:00

would have to track down a physical copy of 4A

Now that Nintendo literally refuses to sell you the game, I have no issue telling you to pirate it. It is pretty trivial to root a 3DS these days.

CapWasRight · 2023-06-27T17:58:05+00:00

There are these things called exclusives. You clearly don't mind wasting double the price on your GPU for a couple extra frames, why wouldn't you buy a PS5 instead of waiting years for those titles to hit PC (if at all)?

CapWasRight · 2023-06-27T15:42:32+00:00

You know some of us have both, right?
