Yeah, that's plausible for sure given how humble Ross is... but for some reason I recall him saying quite early into the campaign (which I may be recalling incorrectly since it was almost a year ago, in many 2+ hour videos) that the EU had very strict political lobbying laws.

Receiving funds was a no-no, and even putting up a billboard would have ran foul of the rules and invalidated everything.

Didn't Ross mention that taking donations could jeopardize the movement, since the EU has strict rules?

This combo even got rid of something that was ADB blocked in Android 14.

I feel like Microsoft was their own enemy. They kept slicing off small portions of their market in pursuit of vendor lock-in. Now there is nobody left supporting them.

I wish it covered how they went from selling cards giving time for PS+, to requiring mismatched currency cards for PS+.

This is such bad news. I'm sympathetic to content creators who have to step on eggshells to please the algorithm/advertisers... But this?

Yeah, this is not that. We all know who this is for.

That's the fun part. They come preinstalled!

The most I've heard is "They aren't as bad as the sequels"

I've always wanted to contribute to The Cutting Room Floor wiki but they hide registration behind a Discord server bot that will give the registration code.

It's a shame that both AMD and Nvidia chose to abandon the sub-$250 market. I think I've mentioned before that I searched and searched for an affordable video card, only to land on stuff that was generations behind. So I ended up with an A580. Only complaint I have so far is that LXDE absolutely hated the card and wouldn't even boot in VESA compatible mode. But that's more a complaint on Debian's glacial pace than Intel.

Yeah, that's kind of why I asked. Gamestop propped up their numbers by bundling the magazine with their discount card. Game Informer wasn't selling on it's own merits, so I think the chance of it rallying with it's old staff is slim.

EDIT: removed the random Apple tangent

so is this an Atari situation where the name is being used but everybody behind it is different?
