This would be a good move in my books.

I haven't played Final Fantasy Remake because they split the game into 'parts', made PC users wait over a year before they could play the game, then had the nerve to still try and charge full price when they eventually got around to releasing it for PC.

I was very interested in the game, but not that interested.

There are stories I greatly enjoyed as a child that I just can't read anymore with new context.

I remember finding out David and Leigh Eddings abused a child that ended up being removed from their care. I tried rereading their books and only a couple of chapters in there were men discussing the importance of beating a child to enforce discipline. I glossed over this as a child thinking it's just medieval culture, but as an adult knowing that this is evidently something the authors genuinely practiced I couldn't continue.

The Harry Potter series was such a prominent part of my childhood. I remember my teacher reading the books to the class as they came out. I loved every moment and eagerly looked forward to each book release. It is truly a disappointment that someone I held in such high regard has decided that making other people feel bad is how they wish to be remembered.

JK Rowling created a magical world that has evolved and surpassed her in every way.

I agree with this order. TPS is a slog. It is almost entirely comprised of traveling across the map and then traveling back the way you came except everything just respawned. Over and over again.

The 3rd game makes item drops boring. 'Legendary' gear is ludicrously common which makes anything sub-Legendary pointless. There's no excitement when a legendary item drops because they always drop. The story also does not compare with the second, which was awesome, or even the first, which was pretty good.

Borderlands 2 also has a pretty good VR port that I highly recommend.

World News = 4,259 articles announcing that Israel is committing genocide and 1,865 articles claiming there isn't enough coverage that Israel is committing genocide.

Look. I get it. Israel be bad. But there is other stuff happening in the world that I'd like to know about. I don't need to be told the exact same thing over and over and over and over and over again.

Don't be silly; it's obvious that there are different error messages for each gender expression. Error logs need to be detailed and specific in order to be useful.

Kevin Sorbo is only slightly less disappointing than JK Rowling and Graham Linehan. It boggles my mind that there are so many of my childhood idles who decide that making other people feel bad is the hill that they want to die on.

I wonder how much of their income actually goes towards development. At a glance, it seems a great deal of unnecessary administrative bloat has been added to Mozilla.

I honestly don't see why a browser company needs to be so large (>700 employees).

Not that I want people to lose their jobs, it just seems unnecessary.

Could be worse. I was the only member of my entire team who didn't get stuck in a boot loop, meaning I had to do their work as well as my own... Can't even blame being on Linux as my work computer is Windows 11, I got 'lucky'; I just got a couple of BSODs and the system restarted just fine.

A lot of outdated information. Looks like they've been open and closed source at different times. Most recent info I could find (from last month) states: "While Floorp wasn’t originally closed source, we plan to revert to an open-source license under the GNU definition."

I equate Samsung TVs with HP printers. I would rather go without than have to put up with their nonsense.
