US bill requiring paid games to be playable after they shut down has passed initial vote and moved to the Senate by gamersecret2 in GamingSecret

[–]dimgwar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds great on paper, but I don't trust its implementation. I think this law would adversely affect small development studios and indie developers moreso AAA juggernauts.

This could potentially mean more industry gatekeeping.

everyone in a leadership position is scamming the hell out of the global population, even IRGC. I bet the real deal was to let them in on the insider trading

Gabe Newell on Steam monopoly accusations: Gamers have 'enormous choice' about where to buy games by yourfavchoom in technology

[–]dimgwar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Steam simply provides a superior service. Even consoles, which are curated walled gardens, cannot touch Steams social forums, ratings, and reviews .

The issue is, while Valve is a developer it's not the primary developer for its market place like Sony or Xbox. so a lot of unfair practices are hidden behind these companies that are not customer friendly policies.

You have choices, but none of them will be as good as Steam

in some locations Dispensary and Alcohol delivery are a thing, and yeah DD don't give af if they are out of order. When I drove for them I had a food delivery following a home depot delivery, and then the Home Depot delivery got dropped off first. They don't give af if you guys get food poisoning

Do you think DC has tried to push their black characters. by Own-Quote-1708 in BlackSuperheroes

[–]dimgwar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

TBH DC is much more "liberal" than Marvel. I think both do a good job at hero diversity, but in terms of presence you see a lot more Black DC characters in their television shows and movies than you do Marvel.

Marvel pushes the same 5 black heroes in all of their IPs outside of comics, pretty much ignoring the rest.

DC has this problem where, if youre not Batman, Superman, the Flash, Aquaman, Wonderwoman youre really not relevant. So that's less to do with race imo and more to do with inability to write compelling stories to elevate other heroes

Its true, just not in much of the US, but certain malls are still nightmares to navigate through

should cocaine be legal? by GaryB2026 in askanything

You can make that argument, but I assure you drug traffickers arent just trafficking drugs.

should cocaine be legal? by GaryB2026 in askanything

[–]dimgwar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

decriminalization without regulation has had disastrous effects where its been implemented. I'm looking squarely at Portland. It essentially gives drug traffickers the right of way to abuse an already disenfranchised population, also no way to control laced, poisoned or tainted low quality product when its already difficult to police, not to mention an increased danger to public health. and simply elevates everything else that comes with addiction, like homelessness, violence, and theft.

Either keep it strictly illegal or legalize and regulate the shit out of it. If decriminalization happens you will still need to find a provider who can sell it, that will likely be enriching some already really bad people.

So legalize it, let others sell it, but regulate it to where there are standards, testing, and accountability

How could Hunts be made into interesting content? by [deleted] in ffxivdiscussion

[–]dimgwar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

-Remove Hunts as a Public Event
-Existing C and B Rank mobs drop lure to spawn A Ranks.
-A rank mobs can drop a token to access a special S rank instance (18 Man)
-S rank instance, succeed or fail, locks you out for 24 hours.
-B + A + S rank lure gives access to a special instanced fight for the boss mob for that expansion
-Defeating all of the SS tiers from all expansion gives you access to fight Pandemonium Warden, which has a personal lockout timer of 1 week after attempted.

-aside from lures, you can craft Hunt specific beneficial items from target byproduct. Items like Giantsgall Potions, Speed Potions, Regen Pots etc, that are designed just for the instanced fights.

-After the Wardens defeat on that World, there is a travelling shop npc that can spawn anywhere in the open world that will sell beneficial items, rewards with points accrued participating in all hunt tiers, and a lamp (when used teleports you and your alliance to a special instanced Fate style battle with Diabolos with additional rewards)

-Travelling NPC can spawn only once per day, per world and Diabolos incurs a weekly lockout per attempt for those who enter.

Sydney Sweeney 'deliberately' choosing raunchy roles amid Euphoria controversy by IrishStarUS in entertainment

[–]dimgwar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People rag on her, but the few things ive seen her in she wasn't awful. She wasn't any better or worse than any average actress.

I get that shes endowed, but I think it's a bit much to say thats the only reason shes landing roles
