This whole thing seems so weird. Why is Meta using the courts to enforce their ToS, anyway? Theoretically, the penalty for a user violating Meta’s terms would be Meta closing that user’s account. Unless the lawsuits are just frivolous scare tactics intended to drain the defendant’s resources…
Biden’s whole campaign is riding on “Look how bad it would be if Trump got elected, this is the most important election of your lives!”, yet he seems far less concerned when he’s asked to win back some voter support by stopping the widely unpopular supply of weapons to Israel…
“Hey, can you recommend a good free photoshop alternative?”
“DIE!”
Just like the good old Jraphics Interchange Format!
Plus as an added bonus we can have the ‘gif’ pronunciation disagreement!
No more than anyone can guarantee anything, but that’s what court proceedings are for. I’m not suggesting that the government should have unilateral power to execute whomever they feel like just because they say they did a thing, obviously.
This is one Chinese policy that I feel the west could benefit greatly from adopting. Not the death penalty necessarily, but permanently life-changing consequences, surely.
Just because it’s an edge case doesn’t mean 30% of your userbase won’t encounter it!
Your link is broken.
“It’s as fun as Marvel Rivals!” could become the new face of apathy and sarcasm.
Haven’t Palestinians been through enough? You’d make them clean up Lyndsey Graham, too?
I work at a company whose entire business model is providing QA to other companies. I work directly with some very large, public companies, and some smaller ones. Almost all of them have some form of dedicated in-house QA, which we supplement.
Local officials found that hundreds of cafés and e-sports venues in Yiwu were offering maid café-style services, with female servers forced to kneel to serve tea, massage male customers, and shout “Welcome home, my master!” to anyone entering.
The procuratorate brought a public interest lawsuit to a local court, arguing that such services “belittle and damage women’s rights to human dignity.” They also said that some local businesses had failed to take measures to protect their female staff from sexual harassment.

“Maid cafés have been a symbolic space where women are defaulted to being the subject of sexual exploitation,” Chen said. “The key to solving this problem should be educating the public to respect women.”
Sounds like banning this might not be such a bad thing? Stricter regulation and severe penalties for violators would maybe help instead, but I don’t know enough about Chinese culture to really be able to comment on whether that would even be effective. At least taking steps to make sure this doesn’t continue is a net benefit, I think.
You encounter the merchant where you can buy the MTX stuff in the first few hours of the game. You can’t even use the majority of them before reaching that point.
I would honestly bet money that they’d designed the game to not have microtransactions, then some executive at the 11th hour told them to find a way to include them, and they made them inconsequential as a sort of malicious compliance. Not that I think it’s OK to have them in the first place, it really soured me on the game initially. I think it’s considerably worse for including them, but they are completely meaningless.
It’d honestly be hilarious if all the creators just started rebranding their fan projects with Palworld Pals (or any other similar IP). Start shifting the discourse away from Pokemon. I’d love that.
So sad, too bad. Sounds like it’s time to start liquidating assets or declare bankruptcy just like the poors have to when they can’t afford a judgement against them.
Can’t appeal without posting a bond? Guess you can’t appeal, then, shithead. Figure it out.
Supplying Israel but not Ukraine. We are truly the worst.
Others have already mentioned RoR and DRG; VT2 and Borderlands also have mods that support at least 8 and I think up to 16 players.
I think EDF is the only one that definitely doesn’t; I was mis-remembering how many can play that, I guess. Thought it was 5 or 6.
My first thought was Borderlands 2, but 10 might be a bit young and it doesn’t really qualify as “as little violence as possible”.
Maybe Deep Rock Galactic, or Vermintide 2? (Or Darktide but that’s far more violent and it’s humans you’re killing.)
Earth Defense Force might be fun, too. It’s very silly, the humor would probably land with a 10 year old.
Risk of Rain 2, maybe, also.
I want a FO or TES game that’s just a modder playground.
Obviously there’s a lot of glaring problems with this, but in my head, it’d be awesome.
