It’s not really degrading functionality there is it. It’s a feature that no one wants and is annoying and badly thought out but you can turn it off but they haven’t disabled any functionality to add this feature
How are they tagging everyone though? Where’s this database they’re comparing against?
If this is like any other government project it won’t work, it will cost 10 million pounds, and is developed by a company that previously specialized in the manufacture of plastic cutlery.
I rocked a Samsung Alias 2 for 4 years before I got an iPhone 5. The e-ink keyboard was awesome how it changed when you flipped the screen open to portrait or landscape.
My position is I’ll pay for it within reason but at some point it’s ridiculous. Like I can’t really be bothered to pay for all of Apple TV just so I can watch For All Mankind it’s not worth it.
I know people who only poop at home. I can’t imagine being out in space for years. With holodeck technology… Someone is bound to have written a program that simulated their bathroom at home.

There’s absolutely no evidence that this is going to be the case. All that happened is that the CEO made a dumb comment and CEOS are always making dumb comments doesn’t mean anything.
No one would which is why it’s not happening. Even a collectors edition super deluxe version would not cost that much.
All that he’s saying is that by his super unrealistic view of the market the game should retail for about $150 but I suspect that even he knows that it will never sell at that price. Even if he doesn’t he isn’t the one that actually picked the price the marketing team will tell him that won’t work.
This is such a non-story. It’s like reporting every time that a Nintendo executive says something stupid about copyright, they’re always saying stupid stuff.
In the past inflation was seen as a bad thing and destabilizing to an economy so governments put actual effort into making it go down. The easiest way to do that is to keep employee wages in line with inflation, but at some point someone, probably with an R next to their name, decided that that was evil socialism, and so shouldn’t be done.
So now inflation goes up and the government just sits there and goes “oh nothing we can do”.
People don’t really realise that tone of voice is hard to convey in text.
You have to pick your market with sarcasm on the internet, it either has to be super obvious or it has to be in a context in which people are expecting sarcasm.
Also there’s always going to be someone who actually thinks along the lines of a sarcastic comment, and it’s always difficult to tell whether or not they actually think that’s the case.
I get what you’re saying but copyright is necessary otherwise nobody would create anything. If you can’t get compensated for your work then why put the effort in?
Hollywood wouldn’t exist without copyright and you might say oh well Hollywood doesn’t produce much good, but it does produce the vast majority of media you probably consume. I’m not saying you’re completely wrong but I don’t think you can just go Copyright = Bad, and leave it at that.
If you have enough capacity to power 10 you can’t replicate an 11th because that would mean that you would have more replicators than you had capacity.
