But if murder is bad, why are they so in favor of murdering women who will die in childbirth? U.S. citizens, no less?

Doesn't exist on any version of Windows that isn't Home, either, and on that you can set your home connection as metered and it simply won't download updates automatically anymore.

To be blunt, none of the issues in the meme are really issues at all for the average person, while something like Linux constantly having issues just playing games despite Proton actually will be.

I thought Linux never needed to restart 🤔🤔🤔

Remember when you could just make your own PvP maps, in the game no less, instead of being given this embarrassing excuse about not having enough manpower? Nevermind that they've once again taken up the mantle of being a first-party console game developer and should have all the backing they need to hire specifically for that purpose.

Can't believe Sony bought these people for their "live service expertise." All they've managed to do with their live service "updates" is drive me away from the game.

Yes, and it's still irrelevant to this community despite that fact.

Frankly, I don't see a point to even touching Bluesky. Threads has at least promised federation, Bluesky is just Jack Dorsey looking at Mastodon and going "yeah I want that but incompatible with everything else."

Raising the Bar (out of print for several years now so I recommend just finding yourself a .pdf) is a book about the development of Half-Life 2 and bits of Half-Life as well. Geoff Keighley has also written a few "The Final Hours" books about the development of Portal 2, Titanfall, and Half-Life: Alyx, though I think all are digital-only.

I'd play the demo and read the Steam reviews and decide that for yourself. Personally, I'd probably pass on the game no matter the price, but we're all different.
