you're acting like ubisoft doesn't actively try to incentive this and push subscription services with overpriced game "editions"

The announcement of the game left an extremely bad impression too, because the game was $60 or $70 but didn't include all the content, there were three other tiers or "editions" you could buy, the last option being the $8 subscription service that had a shiny blue border around it and included all the content.

you seem to be 300x more knowledgeable than the suits that run these companies

I originally used the 5 year one but I thought it wouldn't be as "accurate" to their most recent disasters

No. Do you prefer subscription services?

Calling unions “legacy institutions” is a dangerous take

When I was 13 and still watching LTT I had an extremely old dell optiplex with a 3rd or 4th gen i7 that was really starting to slow down on Windows; I just thought it was old hardware (partially true) but then LTT released a video about Pop_OS and was like "oo what's Linux" and just deleted Windows and installed it. Never looked back! Everything was super snappy and I was really shocked.

The Apex Legends hacking situation was unrelated to the anti-cheat despite initial reports

you're right, thanks for the clarification! https://inv.tux.pizza/watch?v=lzW4SDm0yWM

Apex Legends and Genshin Impact being a good example of this.

Just got an amazing deal for these three and wondering where I should start!

 

If so, why? and how's your experience been?

 

I've seen a lot of posts here on Lemmy, specifically in the "fuck cars" communities as to how Electric Vehicles do pretty much nothing for the Climate, but I continue to see Climate activists everywhere try pushing so, so hard for Electric Vehicles.

Are they actually beneficial to the planet other than limiting exhaust, or is that it? or maybe exhaust is a way bigger problem?

 

Recently a game called "The Finals" has released and after their beta was over they stopped supporting Linux, and a lot of people are clearly pissed and have sparked a ton of debates within their Discord server but I constantly and constantly see an argument brought up by Windows users in the community saying that they dont want Linux support and argue that enabling Linux support is only going to add more cheaters into the game. (as its a pretty big problem right now even though they're using EAC.)

I don't believe it, I haven't seen any proof of it, but I wanted to ask you guys what your thoughts are on it. And, if you have some sort of source proving whether or not this is the case, please do share.
