The funny thing is that YouTube’s code is already so laggy that we all believed this without a second thought.

Plural? How many idle games are we talking here?
Fucking finally! Now when will they let me transfer all the games I had to put on an alt account back to my main?
(Ok really it’s just 1 game that I haven’t played in ages. I’m not that horny. I just hate having multiple accounts as it eats up headspace)
Please let it be like Alpha Protocol. That game was amazing (albeit glitchy af), and has too be the closest realtime video game to the tabletop SpyCraft experience.
ooo, I love this. It reminds me of how nice C#'s LINQ is…
“Pipeline style” DB queries have some interesting advantages as well:
I still use Google for ~95% of my queries because I like real sources, comprehensive documentation, and not having to read a wall of text when a one-line answer would have sufficed.
ChatGPT is a good replacement for Quora/Stack Exchange for explaining general knowledge stuff like other languages’ grammar and simple science, as well as finding authors/books/movies from descriptions when you’ve forgotten their names.

Media is culture, and IMO people have a right to participate in culture. If it’s excessively difficult or impossible to legitimately access culture, one has the moral right to illegitimately access culture, and share it so others also have access.
It’s inexcusable to refuse to directly sell media. The internet has made it easier than ever to trade access to media for money. Geo-restricted subscription services should be a nice add-on option for power-consumers, not the only way to get access to something.
