I'm very surprised by the discourse in this thread. I understand that people were given lots of warning, but that doesn't excuse that they just had their purchase recinded. Why not just allow download of an old version of Minecraft Java still?

I'd consider myself a Microsoft fanboy as I've had Xbox live for nearly 2 decades and Game Pass since it came into existence. Removing people's purchases for any reason is a scummy move.

Tazing pitch invaders is some dystopian shit.

What a surprise, the company that has been proven to sway the course of elections for profit might well do it again!

So I did a quick number crunch on this: To get to about 75kg of protein per day, let's say you only eat lean turkey and drink protein shakes, you'd need 200kg of turkey and 200L of protein shake.

You could probably make this intake more efficient, but however it goes in, I don't think my body would like me eating 370,000 calories per day.

She wouldn't understand a complexity like that.

It's interesting how many of the psychopath suits seem to watch cautionary tales turning into hellscapes and think "yeah, that's a great idea, let's make that".

As most of the other comments point out, pocket TV did exist and you have exposed yourself as:

  1. Younger than the smartphone
  2. Never watched a 90's movie with a security guard in it

It was Nelson Mandela:

A nation should not be judged by how it treats its highest citizens, but its lowest ones.

To be honest I was shocked when I learned about this stripping of rights when you are imprisoned in the US. It is literally a tool of tyranny to lock people up in order to silence them.

It's absolutely just wordplay so they can scam more money out of consumers. Arguably Arena could be considered DLC also, but that's even more of a seperate mode than this. It sounds like there's now just progression tied to the existing offline raid mode, which is obviously just trying to capitalise on the increasing popularity of SP Tarkov.

I don't think it's really possible for them to shut down SP Tarkov (due to BattleState's immeasurable copyright breaches themselves), so it's wild if anyone actually pays $250 for this.

Only the US is allowed to ruin elections.

Haha yes. I'm sure it's the hybrids (which have always been competition) and not the unhinged CEO, poor quality forcing recalls, poor progress at self driving to a point it is being overtaken by other manufacturers and a general drop in brand confidence.
