  • Some games/software expected/relied on a certain CPU speed to run correctly. If your computer was faster than that, the software would run too fast. The turbo button let you toggle between the maximum speed your computer could go, and the speed that the software needed/expected in order to run normally.

    Basically, there was an actual reason for the turbo button, it wasn’t just marketing on computers.



  • Ooof. Reading the reviews makes this game look like it’s not worth free.

    However. Every time I open the research menu I see parts of my army locked behind a paywall. I can stomach an entire faction like Tau being DLC but the Chimera? or the Landraider? You gotta be @#$% me! Here is your spaghetti but the sauce and cheese cost extra! Get that outta my face!

    Oh its just 1 DLC to complete your army. NO! its 3.
    Reinforcement, Fortification and Assault. Nearly $6CAD each. I don’t mind that there are only 2 ways to win a game. Kill everyone else or quests. I can’t recommend a game that splits your army and puts part of it behind a pay way.

    What most game developers would a call an update Games Workshop calls Micro transaction.







  • For example, if a company has 1,000 shares in total and you own 200 of them, you own 20% of the company.

    Not really true. Most private corporations have more than one type of shares, and this article doesn’t seem to recognize that. That’s a huge issue.

    You need to look at the articles of incorporation, the bylaws of the corporation, any unanimous shareholder agreements (Normally called a “USA”), and maybe even the resolutions in the Minute Book. Retractable, non-voting shares that you aren’t allow to transfer/sell without a director quorum, are not going to get you the same as voting shares, or preferred shares, or even shares that have different transferring restrictions.
