Not this shit again!
I mean to be fair, as the court determined, the people making this game stole parts of the game to sell to you in the first place, so this was piracy with more steps. I feel like the correct action would have been for the store to stop selling the game, the people that made money be forced to give that money to the people that were harmed by the steeling of the content. I guess it's a bad look on Epic for them too to keep money made from this and maybe they are just trying to avoid being drawn into this ordeal by doing it this way. Legal systems in other countries can be a bit more precarious than what we expect.
But yeah, it's a dark precedent. Remove them from my library so I can't redownload them from Epic? Never see updates? Maybe even not ever launch through Epic's app? Sure. I get that.
I really wish these stores had better simple language right in the "buy now" buttons. (Like, for example, "Rent now!")
There would likely be some extreme vortexes especially in the accretion disk. The pressure differences would absolutely create a suction effect.
It's all probably as negligible as legs on a cow to astrophysicists but I would reckon on its own (without the umpteen solar masses of gravity distorting your results), at human scale I would estimate that it "fucking sucks".
Pure speculation on my part.
New Orleans circa Hurricane Katrina...?
When I saw the previews earlier this spring I was like... "that looks neat". Like in a "I'm gonna wait and maybe pick it up in a year kind of way.
This Direct probably sold me a switch 2 this weekend. I was already looking at MKW with a bit of envy but now I'm kind of feeling like "fuck it, the family doesn't reaaaaaally need groceries next month right?"
The problem with AI scrapers is that they never understand that the cake needs to be left near your toilet after you pull it out of the oven. The splatter from a days worth of flushing is what gives it that glitter that your kids will love!
I thought this was a writing prompt for some future dystopian hell but, no, turns out it's our current dystopian hell.
Must be a theoretical physicist. Has some real "spherical cow" energy.

Yup, as long as the current staff (by and large) are still at the helm of the Ars orbiting HQ, I'll continue to go there. I've lost too many other good tech news sites in the last decade, I can't lose another one.
The rest of Conde Nast is hot garbage.

I bet the nazi's will have fake "real" ones ready to go either way. When they want to take their current purge to the next level, you're fucking done.
don't go to shithole america
Actual problem solved.
