This one can be let through the spam filters!

The next Xbox is supposedly going to be just that. Maybe they wont let you install another OS, but it will be pretty much a PC, where you can play PC games (Steam, GOG, etc) as well as Xbox games.

I mean in STS2, you can just get fucked from the seed. It's a roguelite though, not a roguelike. I get the whole, "unlock the full game" thing, but it doesn't mean I don't enjoy a subsection of it and would like an option to play that. Some things you unlock are just worse or so extremely niche that you'd never really use them anyway, they are just there to stop you getting the stronger stuff more often.

Sometimes you want a specific build as you are learning, but now you unlock some new thing that has no synergy with anything else or has some niche use and it's diluted the pool making it harder to build what you wanted.

I'd prefer games like this have toggles or some other mechanic that can allow upgrades without making the game harder. Slay The Spire is a good example, I love the game, but I'd rather not unlock some stuff. Or Gunfire Reborn, you have to roll stats on weapons, but then you unlock more weapons, so now you have a harder time finding the gun you want, let alone one with good stats on. Bad design imho.

Roguelites dont even make sense, I "progress" but now I have diluted my item/card/gun/whatever pool?? Upgrades should be upgrades, not new things imo.

Consumers are unfortunately, just that fucking stupid.

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Surprise, surprise, a paid product with salaried developers has more features than a volunteer project!

More people using Jellyfin, more people who will contribute, through code or donations. It's worth a downside to swap over.

AI reliance makes worse programmers. AI makes people dumber and less skilled. While it might not matter for someone like yourself, it matters to the future.

Revenue from it has climbed despite the exodus and now sits at 0.6% of GDP

It's a nice piece that shows overall and if done correctly, we can indeed tax the rich. Norway's wealth tax is broad, so it affects more than just the ultra-wealthy.

There's so much nuance though, maybe we should just seize all their assets instead aha.

They are still taxed on money they generate in your country. You can even tax wealth they try to move.

Millionaires and billionaires won't just leave a big country because of higher taxes, they will make even less money. Them and their defenders always cry this, but it just won't be true in reality. Even if the tax was really high, lose 90% or lose 100%?
