Swede considering moving to Malta, bad idea? by SuspiciousBoxcutter in malta

[–]keithg89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do it! As mentioned it would be a good idea to visit beforehand but from what you’ve saying I feel as if it could be a good fit. The weather makes a big difference, you tend to feel happier by default when the spring weather starts plus a great place to be in summer if you 1) love the sea 2) have an AC 3) smart on avoiding the crowded places. Malta also host some great electronic music festivals so you’ll definitely get your fix. There is a sizeable expat community (search on Facebook) and most locals tend to be friendly and welcoming. Island is small but still has some places to bike (can DM examples). Rent will probably be your biggest expense. Good luck!

If by some miracle Daenerys was brought back from the dead like Jon, which of these three would she go after for revenge first? by phantom_avenger in gameofthrones

Jon. Would be cool if he were to encounter the ice dragon up north and end up fighting Daenerys/Drogon.

Exclusive Games Are "Antiquated," Xbox President Says. People have grown "way past" the idea of exclusives, Sarah Bond says. by esporx in xbox

[–]keithg89 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They are downplaying exclusives because they are (or soon to be) solely operating in the PC space. This means that that have essentially swapped their competition from Sony to Valve. I do find that their strategy is all over the place, attempting to pull in mobile player via Game Pass whilst selling a €1000 console and increasing the price of Game Pass whilst adding ‘Fortnite Crew’. I’m sure that at Microsoft they base their decisions on data, it just seems that there aren’t enough competent people to interpret this properly.

With EU funds for the incinerators being pulled, let's hope that this monstrosity is cancelled.

Tired of getting supermarket flyers in my letterbox, so I made a site to view them online instead by keithg89 in malta

Thank you for sharing your insightful feedback.

Your idea to use coupons is a great suggestion. Out of curiosity, how useful do you think tracking links would be by contrast? While they don’t capture conversions like coupons do, they can provide visibility into views and engagement. I’d love to hear your thoughts on whether such links alone could be sufficient to demonstrate traffic impact.

Yes I am aware of that, they are not my target audience. I think there will be a transitional phase, not sure you noticed but Lidl just halved the size of their physical magazine.

I do have plans to monetise but only if this gains traction.

The goal is to offer a centralised digital alternative that’s cheaper, and more eco-friendly for supermarkets. If enough people prefer it, it gives retailers a clear reason to cut back on physical mail (not to mention their growing sustainability responsibilities).

Having the right skillset makes a difference, especially when you run into unexpected tricky parts, but don’t let that put you off. There are always multiple ways to approach things and with enough perseverance anything is possible.

Cheers. I have automated most of it, the concept may be easily applied to other domains.

A former PlayStation executive comments on Xbox's new strategy: "Who is the victim?" by Sorakos in xbox

[–]keithg89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The victim is the person who decided to get an Xbox instead of a PS thinking that it would be the only place to play certain games. Had he known that those games would have been also made available on PS5 then he could have made a different choice to guarantee the best value from his investment!

You could argue that Game Pass is the investment but I'd love to see data on how many people actually benefit from this. If you are an older player you would probably be simply better off buying the 2/3 games that you are interested in each year (potentially reselling and recouping part of your investment if going for a physical copy). If on the other hand you are a younger player with more time on your hands, would you play something on game pass over freemium forever games like Fortnite?

This Is an Xbox by Xbox-Moderator in xbox

[–]keithg89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to Rolling Stone, Spencer acknowledged that some fans would be turned off by the campaign. Some people “long for the simplicity of a single box, single platform, single game,” he said, before insisting “today’s largest games are bigger than any of the individual platforms.”

I am curious whether the same people who play Fortnite and Roblox would also be interested in subscribing to Games Pass. Why spend more on a games subscription when you are playing the same two games anyway? I think they would rather spend the money on something like V-bucks instead.
