I used to work at a call center dealing with phone bill questions. Once you go past 20, people only see the first digit and the total number of digits, and perceive every digit after the first as 0.
If I had a nickel for every time I had this conversation, I'd have more than two nickels.
Customer: Why has my bill gone up by £10?!
Me: I see that on you called a premium rate line which cost £2.
Customer: That's only £2! I want to know why my bill is £10 higher!
Me: Your bill is normally £29.50. This month it's £31.50. That's a £2 difference.
Customer: Oh, so it is.
Strictly speaking they're equal; a calorie is 4.184J by definition.
But a correct answer depends on bioavailability, which is subject to the noodle recipe, the potato variety, his they're cooked, and the eater's own physiology.
Steam is a DRM system.
I am not being flippant or facetious. Steam is literally a DRM system with a shop grafted on top. That is what it has always been. If a game is on Steam, it be definition has DRM.
In August 2000, Iraq switched to selling oil in euros instead of dollars. Within two years, Iraq ~~was responsible for 9/11~~ had weapons of mass destruction.
Two things of note came in the wake of the absolute clusterfuck of replacing Saddam Hussein. Iraq brought back the death penalty, and started selling oil in dollars again.
No, that's what the edit button is for.
So they should have been called terral panels.
There is no guarantee those sources say what the answer says, or indeed that they actually exist. Generators can and do assemble words into phrases that look like citations, but those sources don't exist. It's actually a problem for librarians, who keep getting accused of hiding nonexistent books "cited" by ChatGPT
AdHoc released their own statement on Reddit
Okay let’s talk Switch release.
We've been quiet for the last few days not because we don't want to address this stuff, but because we've been trying to make sure we're being good partners with Nintendo. They’ve made their own statement regarding this issue:
“Nintendo requires all games on its platforms to receive ratings from independent organizations and to meet our established content and platform guidelines. While we inform partners when their titles don’t meet our guidelines, Nintendo does not make changes to partner content. We also do not discuss specific content or the criteria used in making these determinations.”
As Nintendo states, any game that’s going to be on the Nintendo platform needs to ‘meet [Nintendo’s] established content and platform guidelines.’ This is the key point. Nintendo has content guidelines. Our game didn’t meet those guidelines, so we made changes that would allow us to release on their platform. That’s what happened here. Honestly we thought this would be obvious since we’re the devs that released the fully uncensored version of the game on other platforms.
We initially assumed, like some of you, that because games like Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk are on the platform with similar types of uncensored mature content, Dispatch would be allowed to do the same. During the porting process it became clear that was not the case. So we asked that we include a disclaimer on the store page to inform customers that content would be different than on other platforms. We worked with Nintendo to get storefront language approved.
Where we absolutely need to take full ownership is the placement of that disclaimer. Again, it was our intent to go out of our way to tell people looking to buy the game that the content was censored. While we didn't have complete control of the language, we did have control of the placement. Wires got crossed and we put the disclaimer in the field literally titled "Disclaimer", instead of the "About The Game" section. We didn't catch this until after the launch when we saw people saying we should have called out the changes on the store page, and we went to go make sure it was there. It technically has been the entire time, just in the absolute worst spot that makes it look like we were trying to hide it.
This is 100% our mistake and it was fixed in the Americas store pages a few hours after launch to give more visibility. We’ve also added a disclaimer before purchase. As of writing this, the other regions have either published this change or are in the process of review.
So what now?
We’re already working with Nintendo on a path forward. While we can’t make any specific promises just yet, we’re confident we’ll be able to push an update to address at least some of the censored content. I'll get ahead of it now and say that between dev time and the console submission process, we're talking weeks not days.
To our fans who were looking forward to playing the uncensored version on Switch, we’re truly sorry. People have a right to be pissed. Lots of lessons learned here. Thanks for sticking with us. More soon.
I've seen people elsewhere on the Internet state that the Japanese PS5 version is fully censored in Japan but uncensored overseas, same as Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher. Maybe Nintendo didn't suggest a separate Japanese version as an option, or maybe they did but it would have been too expensive. Still, this looks like it's an issue with CERO.
Yeah, Nintendo are fine with 18-rated games. All evidence points to this being the result of having to comply with the rules of a ratings agency, most likely CERO. But if this isn't Nintendo's fault it means people can't complain about Nintendo.
United States President Donald Trump is getting into the fusion power business through a $6bn merger of his social media firm and Google-backed TAE Technologies, just days after industry representatives urged federal funding.
The all-stock deal, announced on Thursday, is an ambitious bet on the power boom spurred by artificial intelligence (AI) data centres and adds to the Trump family’s growing roster of diverse ventures from cryptocurrency to real estate holdings and mobile services.

The ultimate goal is for Amazon Retail to become infrastructure. Bezos and his minions don't want people to think of Amazon Retail as a shop; they want people to think of Amazon Retail as The Thing You Use To Buy Physical Things On The Internet. As Steam is to PC games, so Amazon want to be to physical things.
