AMC doesn't fit here, once you subscribe to a list there's basically no additional cost. And the lower tiers skip fees etc

Yes

Yes, but you basically can't pay for them. Revenue is basically all from direct cosmetic sales or the battle passes

Overwatch is not

Where are these "publicly available sources"? Also, why are there so many round numbers and people missing from this list?

There's a big difference between a bug that slipped through during a release or two and an actively user-hostile design decision

Would be good to know if this is actually true. From a comment in the thread:

> Assuming that you tested that this happening only during commercials. When you google the issue, it seems like a lot of other people are saying that it unmutes in general after 5 seconds, which matches what happened to you from the video.

It's stated to have a liberal slant, so especially on social issues it would disagree with Trump. It's also explicitly said bad things about Trump's demeanor or attitudes.

However, it does praise some actions that Trump and the Republicans have done with regards to covid19. I overall find that it greatly tones down the extreme takes / perspectives I see on Reddit, and finds lots of nuance

Have you tried The Economist?

You can download your data from Google and Facebook

I've taken a more recent version of this course and it seems that concepts were explained pretty well - particularly, the graphics in the slides were good at explaining the various algorithms step by step.

That's what the Pro subscription may end up being. I believe you get 2 free games with it for now, and they'll be adding more

I hadn't heard of OnLive until there were comparisons to Stadia. On the other hand, Google is able to do some great first party advertising on YouTube.

> it costs money, the service costs a monthly fee, and on top of it you have to buy the games

While this is true now, you'll later be able to play games by only paying a monthly fee or only buying the game for the normal <=$60 price. The subscription isn't necessary to play games at all.

The problem you have with the service potentially going away also applies to Steam, to a lesser degree. I acknowledge that they have a proven track record now and also require much less to continue serving games though.

Agree with your points. Just think the OP was being misleading about the hardware costs for either platform.

I think it's worth trying it out before saying 20-30 ms is jarring

Stadia can have $0 in additional hardware costs (assuming you already have a computer that runs Chrome).

The fact that you already own the games on other platforms doesn't necessarily apply to potential Stadia users.

Plus, you're comparing Stadia's release price to GeForce Now's beta price. Not really a fair comparison

What I meant by "people like tetha" is people who can't play games on their own hardware, don't want to buy their own gaming hardware, and/or don't care about these rights.

Cloud gaming probably isn't targeted to people like you, then. When the choice is between not being able to play the game at all (due to lacking sufficient hardware) and cloud gaming, the potential downsides of cloud gaming are worth it.

Pixel 3a will also be getting discounts, though. It's only launch and you can already get a $100 gift card at best buy with it

Could you be more specific about what's worse on Messenger than WeChat?

I agree, I just don't think it's the best positioned to compete with YouTube

These are things that are bad about YouTube, but not why Pornhub is #2 ... Facebook/Instagram/Twitter definitely have a better shot.

Why is it the best positioned company on earth to do so?

Looks like you're zoomed in or have a larger default font size, so it's not fair to say this is the state of the web

Fair enough. Looks well thought out!

Do you mind saying what your requirement is or the general range?

Why "just scoff"? There's a salary that would allow you to live comfortably and get more net income in the Bay Area - you'd want to see if the jobs can pay that salary

He makes media appearances every year around this time to publicize his annual letter etc.

Some of it is negative, though, like the first. Although I think the main reason people bring it up is because the first point of the first comment is pretty funny/infamous:

> For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem. From Windows or Mac, this FTP account could be accessed through built-in software.
