These big companies are so pathetically predictable. Have fun chasing your tail, Netflix

I actually suggested he get a deck instead, which he is considering.

Good points all around

He doesn’t have the hardware to support non-streaming so he’d effectively have no way of playing them if the service continued to get worse. I suggested he pay upfront for hardware that can play the games he wants without being dependent on nvidia

My buddy was toying with investing in this service. I cautioned him that he’d be a the mercy of a company that isn’t at all consumer friendly. Case and point

He’d look great mounted over a mantle

I am jonesing for this game so bad

I didn’t see any in the story, do you know of some examples?

Sure doesn’t sound like it from what I’ve read

I think you mean against him, but regardless I think that asylum claim would be an uphill battle in many countries

Ah instead of running a dehumidifier 24/7 like some people I know, makes sense

What’s a dew point ventilator for?

Immigrants being roughly equivalent to thetans in their theology, yeah that checks out

Interesting question, I found this

You can’t make a baby with two moms by simply fusing two eggs or adding one egg’s DNA to another’s.  Even though the resulting embryo would have the usual 46 chromosomes, this wouldn’t work.

The reason isn’t some special string of A’s, G’s, T’s or C’s found in dad’s DNA.  No, instead it has to do with chemical marks found on egg and sperm DNA.  This methylation (as the marks are called) makes the DNA from each parent unique, and you need both to make a baby.

What these marks do is affect how at least 80 different genes are used.  In science speak, these genes are imprinted.

As you may remember, we have two copies of each of our genes, one from each biological parent.  The chemical marks shut off either the copy from the egg or sperm, depending on which has the marks present…

If an embryo’s DNA came from two parents of the same sex, then both copies of some of these imprinted genes will be shut off.  And for the rest of these genes, both copies will be turned on.  Embryos simply can’t survive when so many genes are out of whack. In fact, diseases like Angelman syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, and Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome can happen when just one of these genes isn’t passed on properly.

I can’t think of an IP that has carried mediocre devs harder than Pokemon has.

I never thought about that, but it makes sense

A best friend will help you make a body.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

That’s pretty cool of them

Nobody hates their players quite like niantic. So glad I quit playing this slop a year or two ago.

I agree they’re at the top for a good reason, and as it stands they’re not a problem. I’d just love for more of that 30% to go to the devs over expanding Gaben’s knife collection.
