Do you mean that the app should render them in a special way? My Voyager isn’t doing anything.

Remembering how Subset Games is notoriously anti-mobile I looked into it. Turns out, as usual, they did not intend to release a mobile port, just like with FTL. They have an FTL iPad port, but refused to release an Android port due to piracy concerns, claiming it wasn’t worth the effort to bother with the port. But Netflix approached them and sponsored the mobile ports for Into the Breach. In other words, if not for Netflix, the game would not have been playable on mobile at all. This likely applies to all the other Netflix exclusive games, they don’t buy licenses, they sponsor the ports.

And even if they were just buying licenses and making games available only through Netflix, then go complain to the game devs, not Netflix. Devs are the ones who agreed to it when they were offered money.

Never used Prime, so can’t comment.

Hmm, didn’t know that one was exclusive to Netflix. It’s not a universal thing or a rule, cause San Andreas Definitive Edition, for example, is available for purchase for $20. Probably depends on what the game publisher agreed to.

I think you’re looking at it the wrong way. It’s just an extra that you have for “free”, not a dedicated gaming subscription. I also live in Europe and my Netflix is cheap, so I will have the subscription by default (cause a lot of people in my family watch it), which means I get to try the games for free. You can always just go buy them if you want, from the store.

I only put it there because I personally am not very familiar with PoE.

Yeah, thanks.

Oh, right. Yeah, I saw that video, he (allegedly) didn’t know the basics of map navigation and wouldn’t pickup good drops.

What’s PoE? Other than Power over Ethernet, of course.

Баян какой-то.

I came here to make this joke, but I would have gone with something like:
“He’s not that epic of a CEO 🙄”

Are there actually people complaining that she’s ugly…? She literally looks like a model, just with some scars.

That last one is such a Mary Sue, does everything…

I like that this works for both, TNG and most of the seasons of DS9.

There aren’t that many. A good chunk of us here are Linux nerds. You don’t have to be condescending about confronting (I assume) intentional misinterpretation of comments.

I suppose, at this point, I want to understand whether you accidentally misinterpreted the context of the original comment (downloading .exe from TPB) or intentionally misinterpreted it for “comedic effect”.

So is your point to argue semantics?

“Downloading” colloquially referes to the proces of saving some data onto persistent storage device. When you open HTML pages they are loaded directly into RAM. They might be saved to drive if they are cached. But no regular person would refer to that process as downloading. Even I, as a webdev, don’t.

In that case your comment doesn’t make much sense, because when people say “don’t trust that torrent site” they mean the contents of the torrents hosted there. In fact, if you use magnets, you don’t download anything at all from torrent sites ever.

Don’t you ever pirate software?

What truly blows my mind is the amount of requests the 1st party Reddit app sends home. Back when I was using Sync I still had the app installed, but then I set up AdguardHome and saw that my phone was spamming requests. Checked the logs and found out that the 1st party app, which I wasn’t even using for months, was “phoning home” literally every 10 seconds! Besides privacy concerns, that can’t be good for battery life. Nuked the app then and there. I’ll take the nagging, thank you.
