It began upon the following Occasion. It is allowed on all Hands, that the primitive way of breaking Eggs, before we eat them, was upon the larger End: But his present Majesty's Grand-father, while he was a Boy, going to eat an Egg, and breaking it according to the ancient Practice, happened to cut one of his Fingers. Whereupon the Emperor his Father published an Edict, commanding all his Subjects, upon great Penaltys, to break the smaller End of their Eggs. The People so highly resented this Law, that our Histories tell us there have been six Rebellions raised on that account; wherein one Emperor lost his Life, and another his Crown. These civil Commotions were constantly fomented by the Monarchs of Blefuscu; and when they were quelled, the Exiles always fled for Refuge to that Empire. It is computed, that eleven thousand Persons have, at several times, suffered Death, rather than submit to break their Eggs at the smaller End.
It's the bloody Sycamore Gap Tree all over again! When will this madness end!?
it seems to be a Natural Selection clone which is great because RTS/FPS is a fun and under-represented genre
I read one of his novels, I mean blog posts, once. It was so long I had to get a screen reader to read it to me like a podcast because I just didn't have the time to scroll through that wall of text.
I was nodding along the whole way. Yeah yeah it was all stuff I agree with. But there was not a single original thought in that ~1 hour of screen-read text (at 150% speed no less). I felt like I had wasted my time bothering to read this novel, I mean blog post.
If you are a choir that wants to be preached to, and you want to hear someone with a name that other people recognise play the greatest hits of your anti-AI sentiment then it's great. Otherwise, you're really not missing anything by ignoring every single thing posted here under his name. You get the exact same rhetoric from the memes posted to this community and every other.
Instead I would recommend pluralistic blog (Cory Doctorow) who actually has original thoughts on the industry, the economy, and what activists can do to help their communities.
I haven't seen this youtuber's videos before. Do they normally drop 40 minutes of spoilers for a game that came out just 6 months ago? I thought this was going to be a review and it turned into a walkthrough less than 10 minutes in.
We just have peak/off-peak charging times, so not even hourly pricing yet.
Hidden camera footage from George's meeting in Moscow:
shit I had no idea. That's a real shame.
There are multiplayer games from 30 years ago that still have 30 people who play on the first Friday night of each month, and they will put that in their calendar and keep the game alive.
The idea that multiplayer games need huge communities of players otherwise they are "dead" is what is killing multiplayer games.
This is almost certainly deliberate and a result of the theregister's sense of humour.
