Make sure that your device is not 'rooted'. If the operating system is an Android variant (also called a 'custom ROM'), such as LineageOS or Pixel Experience, then the wero app can’t be installed for security reasons.

(cf. https://support.wero-wallet.eu/hc/en-us/articles/25599098295313-I-m-seeing-this-error-message-Your-device-does-not-meet-our-security-requirements)

I can't use it but it looks neat! I hope these companies will one day realise that requiring the user's device to be an opaque jail controlled by a usually foreign third-party isn't good security practice :/

Shit like this is why people go back and play much older titles and have a great time with them

"People" as in maybe 5% of players

That's the part of the comment I was referring to. It's factually wrong: only ~15% of playtime is spent on 2024 games

LoL didn't release in 2024, neither did Warframe. I'm not arguing that old service games don't make the most revenue, they obviously do, I'm arguing that a lot of the live service games that are actively comming out are almost all underperforming and failing to get any kind of audience. All that means there's very little incentive to develop a new live service game unless you already have a big community for it or a brilliant idea

If you have a lot of money, you're better off investing in a "Black Myth Wukong" or "Elden Ring" -- both of which are outperforming the newest Call of Duty on Steam in revenue -- compared to a new random live service game

47% of the total playing time on Steam was spent on games released in the last one to seven years, while a sizeable 37% of time was spent in games that have been out for eight years or more.

Also with all the recent Concord-style live service fails maybe investors will want to fund other stuff from now on? idk

Nothing forbids sharing US news in this community. Anything interesting on the globe goes afaik :)

Also while many countries don't have inequality issues in the "highly privatised health care" industry, I genuinely can't name a single country without inequality issues and Luigi's story may be inspirational to some of these ppl facing inequalities so imo it's good to see it shared here!

Damn, that's sad. Since I already have tons of games I want to play I'll probably never end up getting it then. Thanks for telling me :/

No worries! I've just realized you were asking for games on sale (reading is hard ugh...) so hopefully the ones you want will be discounted mb ^^'

Great games that came out in 2024:

• UFO 50
• Peglin
• ANIMAL WELL
• Balatro

2024 games that I haven't tried yet but seem promising:

• Pepper Grinder
• Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom
• Lorelei and the Laser Eyes
• Rabbit and Steel
• Another Crab's Treasure
• Felvidek

All are in no particular order. Dunno if you'll like those but these ones come to mind :)

I'm sorry what the hell did you call me??

The encrypted files are very suspicious and, in the new canary, they removed the part that stated they didn't receive a gag order: https://web.archive.org/web/20240405132835/https://cock.li/transparency/warrant-canary.txt

It's possible that it's Vincent's way of warning the users of a gag order. He may be an insufferable edgy little twat but he cares a lot about transparency and, had he received a gag order, he would definitely try to communicate it

Maybe I'm just being paranoid, you tell me

Yes! uYouPlus is amazing although it can be a pain to install because of Apple's shenanigans. It's a collection of patches over the official YouTube app

Is your question "what is the probability for one of my post to have 69% upvotes"? This should be answered by a binomial distribution!

According to this website, for p=0.5; n=100; and x=69 the probability should be ~0.005%.

This means that if 100 people vote your post perfectly randomly, the chance of getting 69% upvotes is ~0.005%. This number will also become smaller if more people start voting since given an infinite amount of votes, the ratio of upvotes should converge towards the chance that a person gives your post an upvote (aka. 50%) so we'd get even further from our 69% target.

Basically, if people vote perfectly randomly it's unlikely to get to exactly 69%. Such is the fate of us mortals :(
