True, there was even that creationist “documentary” that got Richard Dawkins to “look like a fool” in it
Yeah, what’s up with these governments and people who want to censor white supremacy, xenophobia, nazism and pedophilia? Let the information flow freely!

One shit update is all it takes, just ask CrowdStrike and Microsoft
One “exit” per press
More of a shortcut, CTRL + A + D
to exit the current session (exits a sudo su first, then a ssh, then the actual terminal)
You might be interested in reading the Unix Haters Handbook. I mean, that the command to install a backport so easily allowed you to remove core packages without a… Better warning, is an old complaint
I know for sure that palworld does not promote good sleeping habits in any shape or form, at least not to my addicted ass
The game during loading screen isn’t a “game mechanic” per se, which is why I think it was patented back then. Completely ass backwards that it could be patented, but there’s that.
As for the overhead arrow for navigation, I wasn’t aware of that one. Was that from EA? I think it can be argued that’s not a “game mechanic” either, because it’s not “an essential component of the game”
It’s pretty much the same thing, but with a longer grind towards the final levels. Legendary bosses (jetragon, frostallion, centaur knights) were bumped to lvl 55, there’s a couple of “alien” pals from semi random, timed events (meteorites), and a “final” dungeon as an offshore oil rig, which is filled with max level syndicate goons that can kill you really fast, but there are many places you can stay where their AI will effectively break. The game crashing while you’re there is a much, much worse enemy
Of course they do! It’s those weird white boxes that nerdy nerds nerd about with numbers and shit
While Microsoft is not a target right now, if that patent for ground-flying mounts is used (which I doubt it will, given it’s too recent and widely used by older games), Palworld can just point at World of Warcraft Burning Crusade as prior art and it suddenly becomes MS vs Nintendo.
“Multiple patents”
Specifies none
Off to a great start, I see. I know that actual game mechanics cannot be patented or copyrighted (the same principle applies to non digital games), so I’m really curious to what these patents are.
You’re not wrong, capitalism has a million failings, but the people running the show always find new ways to keep the status quo. They can buy the system whenever needed, while the masses can, at best, get a free beating from the cops
And then you have Capcom, who put fucking denuvo years AFTER a game’s release
From my understanding, in Brazil, you just ask your local dealer if he knows someone and he’ll put you in touch
What really annoys me is the endless stream of scam, “earn money fast with 1 simple trick” ads
It’s literally a scam every single time and trying to report those fall into deaf ears (or blind algorithms) because hey, they’re paying to be shown, why should any high ranking executive care? “Oh, I can’t be held responsible, sorry!”
So it’s theoretically possible that some of those anaerobic bacteria survived for 4 billion years and are plotting revenge against us right now?
Crypto whatever (coin, token, nft)
Social media
Internet as a whole (you can always dig a hole further down)
“You are not a worker, you are an entrepreneurial partner!” Type of corporate bullshit
Electric vehicles (mostly due to faulty batteries, but also because they don’t fix the problem of shitty car focused city design)
Mostly for the rich or other well off citizens, lower classes still had to walk to a local fountain or well to get water
