Canadian-American software developer living in Japan since 2015. Into gardening, DIY, permaculture, etc.
If it has EA as only the publisher, I might buy it later on sale. But if it’s first-party within EA, nah. Take-Two is actually the same for me these days. I won’t touch Blizzard-Activision anymore either (which is sad because I bought Warcraft and Starcraft when they came out originally and would play over modem with my buddies).
A first-person, single-player AAA shooter could be exactly my cuppa. However, there’d be zero chance I’m buying a game from EA so there’s that.
read it from left to right like a language
A number of languages are not left-to-right, BTW.
Well, that can’t be right; they didn’t make anything after SC2k… (bring back archologies!)
In Japan, you can be on the hook (sued) for knowingly engaging in a relationship with someone you know to be married. It’s usually about breaking up the marriage, from what I understand. Sex of the people involved doesn’t matter here.
Japan does not grant citizenship to those born here. There are multiple ways to acquire Japanese citizenship, most of which are based on the most recent couple generations of parents/grandparents. Multiple citizenship technically isn’t allowed, either. Anyone naturalizing to Japanese citizenship must relinquish their existing citizenship(s) unless the other country does not allow relinquishing. If found out, the Japanese government can take action to revoke citizenship (or at least parts of it; there are actually court cases about this).
What do the terms of use and privacy policies say? Who’s paying for the servers and what are they getting out of it? Also, since your data is federated, what happens when it hits a server with any different policies (or who may be in violation of the license of the software itself, but is getting no enforcement)?
If you are not paying for some service, you and your data are almost certainly the product. It was true then, it’s still true today.
Download the messaging app of your choice. Get friends to download it if they want to contact you. Use that app and too bad if no one else does shrug
Ooooh, look at “I can sleep once and only once per day and never for longer than a day” over here ;P :)
I’m shocked that this is still news as often as he seems to speak without thinking
Not particularly, based on my experience. Now, if you want AS/400 people and such…
I am so happy not to have to mess with that. LOADHIGH agony.
Some of the the Louisana folks would often say ka-SHAY in a wonderful Cajun accent.
As long as it’s not scrambled, I suppose
It varies by region at least in the US based on a few years of doing service desk work. Listening to YouTubers, it seems a bit all over the place as well.
Well, crap. Guess I’ll eat a nice quitch to chear myself up
A “niche” is not a “nitch”
For the Koreans I met who moved to Japan, the work culture can be less bad, as can be working at certain companies despite where they graduated from. My sample size is small, though, and I am neither Japanese nor Korean.
Torchlight 2 should scratch that itch. To me, Path of Exile is something the Diablo series could have been but wasn’t exactly? Though I haven’t played it in a number of years, so I may be mis-remembering exactly what it was like. I seem to think it was more like a point-and-click RPG with kinda Diablo-like combat.
