The worst of Lemmy is a certain instance... That I have never heard from after defederation.

Yeah, defederating from Beehaw was definitely a great decision. I'm so glad I don't have to see those guys' posts anymore.

For a moment I thought the Eevee Blender render engine was discontinued, lol.

How else would you test the difference? By looking at a still picture?

The difference matters very much in high speed video games and this is the most basic of ways to test it.

Just want to add, if you're feeling nostalgic about some of these Flash games and want to play them again, download Y8 browser. My personal favorites are Warlords: Call to Arms, and Steppenwolf: The X-Creatures project.

The official announcement teaser for The Elder Scrolls VI came out in June of 2018. That means Bethesda will have most likely started advertising the game a full decade before it came out, if the game is at least five years away at this point.

I'd love to see a seedless watermelon. It'd be less of a hassle to eat them.

Took them only three years.

After binging the 12 books over the holidays, I've made an attempt to watch the movie adaptation. It couldn't be that bad, could it?

It was much worse. Possibly the worst movie I have ever seen.

I was mostly referring to the last part of the article where the author explains the entire long-term plan behind the subscription services - first they offer a large variety of games for a low price, then they squeeze the customers for every single penny after they've cornered the market.

We'll all pay for a subscription-based future

Not me - the moment when buying a game outright is no longer an option is the moment when I stop paying for video games. I already have a large library on Steam (1,700+), GoG (400+), and I'm not planning on buying any Playstation or Xbox products. I've never paid for Xbox game pass, or PS plus, nor do I plan to. They can scheme all day long, hike the prices every week, I already buy games only if they're on a really deep discount or in a bundle. Never paid more than 30 bucks for a game, and I could count on one of my hands how many I paid more than 20 bucks for.

I do, of course, realize that I'm in the minority, but hopefully more people will realize how big of a scam these subscription services are.
