I mean… just look at them… 😲 Is this the life that’s supposed to be the goal we should all be striving for? Look at those frozen, plastic faces. The soulless eyes. It’s like they’re just screaming silently inside. HOW IS ANY OF THIS A GOAL?!? This is why money frightens me.
I give up, you win.
You’ve misunderstood me (let’s just say “not deliberately” for a moment). What I’m saying is that regardless of what Google does in terms of long term plans or nuanced anything not all searches are equal. Neither you nor I can say at this point how this will shake out. Also, what have you eaten today? You know what you’re like when you don’t eat…
It might be harder than you think…
What kind of information are you talking about? Let’s be specific. The phone number for a garden center or how a rocket engine works? This won’t affect every search the same way. This is actually a fantastically complex question and we’ll only really see what happens when it does.
This headline is so messed up. AI is making searching easier and more convenient and reducing the amount of clicks (often to zero) you need before you get the information you want. For people searching the web for information that’s a clear improvement. If you make your money from SEO then it sucks but if the headline was “Is Google about to decimate the SEO/PPC industry?” Then we’d be reacting in an entirely different way I imagine.
This makes no sense unless Russian leadership is getting desperate (which they may well be I suppose). They’ve lost over a million people just trying to invade Ukraine. Opening up a second front with a well trained new enemy just seems unwise in the extreme. It would be like fighting a baby elephant and messing that up so deciding to fight the enraged elephant’s Mum as well.

I know right. I think it’s the worst I’ve ever seen. I kept scrolling through for something good but all of it is was like those bargain bins you used to see in petrol stations full of old DVD’s. Honestly they should be ashamed of this. I went through my whole wishlist to check if any of the games on there had demos and literally none did. Last Next Fest most of them did. That’s some impressive enshitification right there…
Actually I was wrong… Probably just needed to eat something and be less grumpy lol. Just found a fantastic demo that I’m downloading now. it’s called Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream. Amazing people animation and great dialogue. I love top down games and this is easily better than anything I’ve seen before. Thanks to a NextFest roundup from Nookrium or I would never had spotted it.
Yes, and you then do the opposite of what whichever Shakira you asked says.
Hey Shakira on the left which door would Shakira on the right say leads to freedom?
Great, I think I got it, but just in case tell me the whole thing again I wasn’t listening.
I’ve tried to guess what prmart means but I just can’t imagine what you meant to type hehe can you clarify?
There must be so much paid review manipulation out there but I don’t know if it amounts to much. At the end of the day, if the game is good people will play it. I mean No Man’s Sky came back from the entire world dumping on it from the stratosphere. Also, often overly negative reviews will actually make me more interested in a game, specially if all the negatives don’t sound that bad “Horrible game! I didn’t continuously die and how dare they allow the player to explore anywhere!”.
fee fee’s confirmed.
I’m curious… at this point do you think a Trump pee tape would make any difference? Fox news would do a segment called “Who hasn’t experimented in life?” and he would dismiss it as “Locker room hijinks” or something. He could put puppies in a blender on live tv at this point and everyone would have his back.
But getting shit wrong is not curruption.
Sure, but corruption is corruption:
Italy: 12 arrests and over €9.6 million seized in investigation into agricultural funding fraud €440k frozen in Italy over suspect scam by fake farmers Italy smashes mafia racket defrauding EU agriculture funds 94 arrested in Italy over EU agriculture funding fraud
And the shit you saw with the EU. Is really just evidence on how open they are.
Well, their own reports are pretty damning: The Commission’s response to fraud in the Common Agricultural Policy There’s a “Conclusions and recommendations” section that’s quite illuminating.
I feel exactly the same as you. I have ADHD so fluff is painful and pointless grind is just depressing. I thought the most obvious way to recommend my favourites would be to go by hours played, so here’s my top four:
My Time At Portia - 594hrs Hardspace Shipbreaker - 498hrs Kingdom Come Deliverance - 370hrs Just Cause 3 - 255hrs
Special mention too for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey (164hrs) because that is one well made game in almost every respect. Very little fluff, grind and you’re always in control of how big a challenge you feel like facing. To my mind it makes all the other AC games look clunky and drab.
Also I hate difficulty spikes so much that whenever they happen and just seem to be there so the devs can grind a few more hours of playtime out of you for their analytics, I just reach for WeMod. Big shout out to WeMod in fact :) It’s made so many games I’d abandoned fun again.
