If they don’t sell the game but a long term rental license, then they should not say “we’ve sold 1234557890 copies of <game>”.
Usually the arguments I saw in favour of decriminalisation instead of legalisation are:
I’m in favour of legalisation and proper regulations (I think in professional porn industry actors/actresses are required to be tested periodically), however I also worry about the point 3.
Not the one you replied to.
Decriminalise (the proper word) is to stop prosecuting people, it still illegal but not criminal charges would be presented to people breaking the law, maybe civil fines at most.
Basically, the system turns a blind eye on the topic.
Legalise is to change the laws to not only no longer to be a crime, but also recognises that is legal to do it. Usually it involves regulations on the topic.
Take alcohol for example, let’s imagine if you have a store that sells alcohol and the police pays you a visit.
Scenario where is illegal to sell alcohol: The police arrests you and you could face prison.
Same scenario but selling alcohol is decriminalised: The police ignores the alcohol.
Same scenario with being legal to sell alcohol: Police asks four your license, checks that the bottles came through the proper channels (no counterfeit and product of dudose procedence that can pose a health risk) and questions people about if you sell to minors.
People are usually in favour of decriminalising prostitution rather than legalisation cause they want to be left alone. Legalisation would make it like any other job, requiring a permit, pay taxes and probably a license, however it would bring the same protections as any other business (for example, a sex workers could call the police without fear in case is assaulted by a client).
Does this count? https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2014/jun/08/the-dolphin-who-loved-me
Instead, he encouraged Lovatt to press on with teaching Peter English. But there was something getting in the way of the lessons. “Dolphins get sexual urges,” says the vet Andy Williamson, who looked after the animals’ health at Dolphin House. “I’m sure Peter had plenty of thoughts along those lines.”
“Peter liked to be with me,” explains Lovatt. “He would rub himself on my knee, or my foot, or my hand. And at first I would put him downstairs with the girls,” she says. But transporting Peter downstairs proved so disruptive to the lessons that, faced with his frequent arousals, it just seemed easier for Lovatt to relieve his urges herself manually.
Mainly it is convenience of not having to lug a cable and I have a bit of fear of breaking the interior of the usb-c, it feels fragile to me.
I have an iPhone with MagSafe, so I can use it while charging.
Using a charging pad without MagSafe and cannot use the phone while charging can also be a plus for some people, it forces you to not being constantly on the phone.
Since I watch little to none content on my language (Spanish) so I changed the YouTube app language settings for the interface to English.
However sometimes it still fuck the captions, like setting them on German if the video is in English, or on Thai/Hindi/Japanese when is it in Korean.
An ice tray to cold down a router.
I changed ISP, the new one told me that it would take like a week to send me the credentials to use my own ADSL router 🙄, in the meantime I had to use the cheap-ass one they provided.
The new service crashed like after five minutes of use, after some some back and force with the technical support unsuccessfully I notice that the router was extremely hot when the connection crashed and normal when it started to work again.
It has not any cooling system, and being in the middle of the summer didn’t help either.
So…. I tried to put an ice tray from the freezer on the router and it worked. To be “safe” I put a plastic bag between them to avoid any condensation dripping onto the device.
Today I finally received one, I’m worthy enough to be targeted by a bot.
Broken/buggy software usually is not developers/QA’s fault but management and clients.
Consulting want something that conforms exactly what is signed and as fast as possible, if there are later bugs that doesn’t invalidates what was agreed es or new features take longer to introduce it means more money as maintenance/evolution contracts.
Clients often don’t see why they should pay extra and include extra time for better code. Also they prioritise stupid things like changing the font in a page over fixing a bug in the checkout page.
