Is this Canadian soil? It may be a declaration of war.

I've actually wondered about this. Given how many games a) have existing PC ports and b) are built using things like Unity that handle the input layer I wouldn't be shocked if there's a lot more games that just work with m+kb than you'd think.

Yeah, I used a mouse for a bit on FF14. They're plug and play, although they may not support extended buttons and such since there's no installing additional drivers. Keyboards are also supported for any time you need to enter text! Pretty essential for MMOs.

The secret is persistence.

Oh good, United healthcare is up.

Pretty sure that this will end up being integral to like...2 games, probably first party ones. Did you know that you can plug a mouse into a PS4/5 and it'll work fine? Most players don't care about that, either.

The first part? Abso-fucking-lutely.

This was a high profile case that was all over the news for weeks. And frankly it looks like a slam dunk for the prosecution. The Biden Justice Department absolutely would've brought federal charges.

Not sure how you figure that. Trump is not exactly hands off with the Justice Department.

Not at all surprising and it wouldn't have been any different under the last administration. From the whole "rule of law" perspective you can't really not go after somebody who committed premeditated murder on film just because his target was someone that people didn't like. What the jurors decide to do is a whole different can of worms (although if you ask me to make a prediction, I think they most likely find him guilty).

 

Posting a screenshot of the interface when I'm typing a comment reply as an example. I have large thumbs and I have to scale the keyboard up pretty high to be able to type. Thunder has what I would call a lot of wasted space in comment reply mode. The button bar could be hidden (it's not something I really use) and either the header text could be shrunk or omitted entirely. Just making the header scroll rather than being fixed could work as well. This would probably be a good use case for floating action buttons. There's basically only two things I care about when typing a comment reply: seeing the text I'm typing, and referencing the text I'm replying to. Would love some options that allow me to maximize the space used.

 

Sadly I think I'm finally ready to put Sync out to pasture since it isn't maintained.
