I wonder if they contacted GameHut about it.

I loved my Logitech G602 back in the day if you can find them. Good grip, 6 side macros and DPI macros. Also wireless.

Pretty surprised by Baldur’s Gate getting so many players. I knew it’d be successful but considering how comparatively few people played Divinity Original Sin, it’s a huge jump

I think it’s targeting people who get their lets plays on actually (shitty) streaming services.

Thank you for that tidbit! My Grandpa worked over in China and would always bring movies back over. Got Ice Age 2 months early! I always wondered why the Chinese movies looked so much choppier, a different format makes a lot of sense.

Yeah, I’d imagine that you guys could have bought 20 pirate DVDs for the price of like 1 legit one. Plus, could be wrong, but my Grandpa said the pirated movies were usually the US releases so they were the uncensored versions of the movie. A better product for a better price, there’s no reason to buy the originals.

Are we finally going to see the death of 2b2t? Thought it’d be around forever

Chinese piracy is …odd. But generally speaking, yes they love to pirate shit. Most disc movies over there are counterfeits, not official. So most home media purchases are pirated.

People are able to get past the firewall pretty easily, the same information needed for P2P is needed to get past the great firewall. So if you’re able to get past the firewall, you’re probably able to download games without being caught. Separate from the great fire wall, Android is by far the most used operating system in Asia as a continent. There is a constant flow of apps like 4Shared and Zedge that provide access to pirated content with pretty much no barriers and they succeed quite well in China.

Piracy over there is pretty much a norm, whether you’re knowingly pirating or not. Linus Tech Tip’s Chinese channel is ran by Chinese pirates that the company hired eventually. But the Chinese front for that channel is literally just some random guys that started downloading the videos, translating them and posting them for the ad revenue. Sure the viewers may not have known it was pirated, but the viewers were still technically pirating 🤷‍♀️

I use swipe typing, so yes.

You’re talking stupid for no reason

Originally when I saw this headline, it said change instead of action and was a top tier headline

Sorry but the Book of Mormon is literally a guide on running a patriarchal white ethnostate that Joseph Smith wrote while hopped up on Ephedra, aka old school speed. He created one of the most successful sex cults in American history. He was running for president when he was killed. Then Brigham Young literally tried to declare war on the federal government when they got to Utah because they thought it was their promised land. They also believed that it was better to kill sinners than to let them live (blood atonement).

What you are saying is objectively wrong. If Smith and Young had their way, there would be a white ethnostate covering the Southwest of the nation.

For an app that you can’t even make a post from yet. I don’t care who you are, $180 for an app still missing basic functionality is always going to be a hard sell.

Yeah the PC version is what I played, it just does not control right. It looks fine enough, but there was no playing

Gothic is one of the only series that I fully believe needs the remakes. Without some fixes put in from moddb, the games border on unplayable now because they’ve just aged REALLY poorly. Glad they have a list of shit they’re fixing though

I don’t feel like any other church could have represented Gary in this scene

Yeah, no posting yet. That’s my big issue with Sync on Lemmy so far. Monetization was implemented and there were multiple price increases all before some of the most basic features of Lemmy are even on the app. When everything else is already fully functional and free, it just becomes a harder sell than it was on Reddit.

One change I’d recommend is some sort of “Pay what you want” option for a subscription. If he did a minimum of $2 a month, it would be about the same cost but would make users feel like they have more agency over how much they pay. While I’m sure many people would just pay the minimum, giving users more choice will just lead to people who want to chip in more. We’ve all paid $5 for a humble bundle, but I’m sure a few of us have also chipped in $100 if it was the right charity or cause.

As someone raised Mormon, this is so fucking funny

I can’t post or search on the app yet… It’s objectively the worst Lemmy app currently. I loved Sync for Reddit, but charging more for a product missing basic features is questionable.

Fuck iLok. Shit made me regret buying plugins, should have stuck with piracy.

Yep, in my highschool/college depression days, making YouTube videos on music production helped me keep my head up.
