I wonder at what point people start taking them to court. It seems like the usual idiot tech bro excuse of thinking terms of service/use somehow override the law which is hilariously naive.

You cannot override the law in a TOS.

Like if they wrote down that they were allowed to murder you written into their TOS and proceeded to murder you they'd still go to jail for murder.

It really does make me wonder at what point the apollo dev does take Huffman to court for defamation.

For those of us who aren't American and want to at least have a semblance of a hope of keeping up with it there's a wikipedia page for the indictments.

I think it's those stupid hard coded buttons on my remote that I accidentally press every so often then have to repeatedly try and back/exit out of the stupid thing it launched that I cannot remove/uninstall from my tv.

"Code is the documentation"

Is the laziest excuse I've come across. Like, not everyone knows everything and complex code exists, it is not hard to put in some text explaining the basics of what something does.

Like, unless you're dealing with that code everyday it's going to look like double dutch to anyone new coming to it.

I've had people say that to me before, and it is absolutely infuriating in its laziness and cop out excuse.

Would not be surprised if they slurped up data from sites like reddit etc where any conversation that goes on long enough eventually devolves into a slinging match.

I think for me everything doesn't feel connected, to go anywhere it's always a loading screen. It is very clearly a limitation of their engine, but it just makes everything feel disconnected.

They got compromised by russia years ago. Take a look at how often they refuse to publish russian government info for example.

If Ukraine gets Gripen then they get access to an air platform that can fire the best air to air missile in the world.

Meteor is deadly.

They could use F-16's in the SEAD/DEAD/bomb truck role whilst using the Gripens to shoot down russian jets and helicopters from extreme range.

Ah, the oldie.

I'm from Leeds, and yes all trains terminate customers here.

His name is Steve Huffman, using Spez means he gets to avoid a lot of the public criticism through google searches etc.

And there's my decision not to buy an Xbox vindicated.

Their nation is spending something like half its budget if not more on defence, they can manage a few dozen jets.

Besides, they'll have to phase out their soviet era jets at some point because of the sheer age of them soon. Those Su-24 etc airframes are probably in rough shape by this point.

I don't think Sony can get away with releasing sub-par PC ports like The Last Of Us without it impacting on their other games. This stuff doesn't happen in a vacuum, it has knock on consequences to all their other PC releases.

The problem is where to store that footage. This has been a long running issue that OSINT has had trouble with documenting things like warcrimes.

For example Bellingcat iirc have their own private storage for just such things when it comes to documenting warcrimes because the footage often disappears due to breaking TOS.

Twitter likely isn't long for this world, youtube has removed stuff before etc.

Eh, I mean they probably did it because of russian government pressure but ultimately I've seen a lot of russian opposition media hold what are questionable views regarding Ukraine, often a colonial or imperialists view.

They don't want war, they just want to do these things peacefully to impose russia on Ukraine etc.

At this point I couldn't give two shits what happens in russia, what's important is helping Ukraine.

Honestly, I didn't mind them. If they had them on kbin I wouldn't mind as long as that money went to server upkeep etc. Somebody has to pay for hosting.

I think the most fun I've had has been the spaceship building. I've only done a bit of space combat, but the spaceship builder while not perfect (like the inability to rotate parts) I quite liked.

The people who're emotionally invested in something will almost always make something better than the developers themselves.
