The whole idea of a franchise is so people can get the same menu at the same quality at the same price no matter where they are. Having dynamic pricing means you can't even be assured of the price at a single location, let alone being in a new city with an unfamiliar restaurant.

If you don't know what you are going to be able to buy with your $5, then might as well go to someplace different.

You don't need to hack anything, you can use Binfmt_misc to tell the kernel how to load windows binaries

Imagine the mess trying to torrent using IP over Avian Carriers

Which signals to investors that there is little to no expected growth. If you aren't attracting new customers to grow your user base, then you only have the option to milk your existing customers to increase revenue.

That may work short term, but long term it signals a death knell for the company, since as the old customers retire or the studios close down, the new crop of game developers would have been trained on or adopted a different engine so aren't going to switch to Unity. Eventually they just run out of customers.

This looks like it is talking about the DLC for the digital game

What the company likes about the old timer is that because he has been there for 10 years, he will likely be there for the next 10 years to support the complicated system he is creating now. If a younger team member creates something using a modern approach, there is the risk they will leave in a years time and no one knows how the system works.

While watching this there were a few times where I thought "Hey, this actually looks really good", then I realised that was the RTX off shot. The RTX on shots just didn't do it for me as much as they did for games like Quake 2.

I think that HL2 just already had great baked lighting that adding ray tracing doesn't make it feel much different.

I'm jealous of that download speed. Took me an hour to download and during that time my wife decided we had to go out for dinner. So now I don't get to play until after work tomorrow 😔

Give Hive Time a go. It has been a while since I played it in its early days but it was a fun bee hive management game.

The author is quite a fan of bees so I imagine he has done them justice.
