Its been like this for much longer too. I’m still mad they closed FASA game studio.
It’s worth mentioning this is deliberately worded to sound as bad as possible. Q2 is down from Q1 (it always is), and revenue is down but so are expenses as unprofitable stores are closed (remember when your local mall had two of them?)
The company was profitable in this last quarter, but only barely. There was an operational loss, but interest on the massive $4Bn war chest pushed it over. This isn’t great, but marks a real improvement over hemorrhaging money which it was doing before. Its also the first profitable Q2 in years. The year of 2023 turned a narrow profit and 2024 is on track to be a little better.
Hate GameStop all you want (and by all means, frequent your local indie game store). But keep in mind that business wise, someone still feels the need to spend money on ‘attack’ articles like this one.
Anybody else playing the new satisfactory update?
Discord got big in online gaming because they offered a VOIP and text chat browser cliemt. Just copy or type the short link and you’re in in a minute. They also did free hosting which was huge.
Compared to Teamspeak or Ventrilo, literally just eliminating the steps of downloading a client, installing it, and typing in an IP address caused them to explode overnight. Also you could “host” without changing router settings (most kids/students have to ask their parents or jump through hoops for this).
Technically there was stuff like Skype but that never had the convenient team speak style chat rooms to drop in and out of freely.
Within months of suddenly getting popular, discord had a huge userbase that everybody was using already, and that momentum got us to the point where in some aspects its even replacing the role of wiki’s and forums even though its terrible at it.
I am sure your ardent support for thought policing will never backfire!
The FBI and most major media corporations hid the hunter biden laptop scandal from the public during the 2020 elections. CNN, ABC, NPR, twitter, Facebook and more colluded with the FBI to claim the incident was fake, despite eyewitness accounts confirming much of the information. Twitter banned users for spreading “misinformation”. The FBI quietly admitted the laptop was real after the election. No apologies were issued, many news networks issued no correction.
Whose side is the media on again?
Don’t get me started on how some CNN/NPR listeners I knew thought kyle Rittenhouse shot first at black protestors even up to the the conclusion of the trial…
Never played a Ys game, but I like falcom for some of Trails games I’ve played, and Gurumin. Anyone who played these recommend one to start with?
This sounds like subtitles for a DVD commentary track, which were probably supposed to be a separate subtitle track but weren’t for some reason (or your player defaulted to them alphabetically).
There’s still some rough edges but its honestly well worth your time.
Yes, it’s only on the Play Date, which is a $200 console aimed at kids. The gimmick is you can download a bunch of exclusive games for free, but its still a very low power console with one gimmick (the crank) which costs as much as a switch lite.
This is basically good advice BUT it would have been equally relevant under Dorsey.
