Remembering how Subset Games is notoriously anti-mobile I looked into it. Turns out, as usual, they did not intend to release a mobile port, just like with FTL. They have an FTL iPad port, but refused to release an Android port due to piracy concerns, claiming it wasn’t worth the effort to bother with the port. But Netflix approached them and sponsored the mobile ports for Into the Breach. In other words, if not for Netflix, the game would not have been playable on mobile at all. This likely applies to all the other Netflix exclusive games, they don’t buy licenses, they sponsor the ports.

And even if they were just buying licenses and making games available only through Netflix, then go complain to the game devs, not Netflix. Devs are the ones who agreed to it when they were offered money.

Hmm, didn’t know that one was exclusive to Netflix. It’s not a universal thing or a rule, cause San Andreas Definitive Edition, for example, is available for purchase for $20. Probably depends on what the game publisher agreed to.

I think you’re looking at it the wrong way. It’s just an extra that you have for “free”, not a dedicated gaming subscription. I also live in Europe and my Netflix is cheap, so I will have the subscription by default (cause a lot of people in my family watch it), which means I get to try the games for free. You can always just go buy them if you want, from the store.

What’s PoE? Other than Power over Ethernet, of course.

Is this a reference to that post about shipping mines to IKEA?

In Asteroids – yes.

In case this wasn’t sarcastic, the map doesn’t wrap North to South like in Asteroids, it only wraps East to West, like Pac-Man.

I have a Management test tomorrow that will for sure require a drawing of Maslow’s Pyramid. I’ll make sure to use this real one.

I haven’t really seen a single post from [email protected] in top (or like ever?). It’s all dominated by this instance now.

Yeah… Bezos, Musk, that Virgin guy…

Have you tried going to

Thank you very much!

Can’t say I’m not glad this happened. 196 was the only community I was banned from (permanently) and thus couldn’t vote or comment on good chunk of top posts.

I have been doing calculus the entire day nonstop in preparation to fail my tomorrow’s test and my brain is totally fried. I came back to see a completely new sub dominating the top and I can’t parse what and why has happened. Can somebody please briefly explain using very small words?

Thank you, that makes everything more clear. Please lead with that next time.

Noted. I will not.

Are smoke grenades multi-use?

At this point, IDK if you’re just trolling. But in case you’re not:

The post shows a map, on which countries that shipped mines to IKEA are colored in red, specifically Poland. But the map is cropped, and as the result New Zealand (it’s a country that is too the east of Australia) cropped out and not visible.

The joke implies that New Zealand could also have shipped mines to IKEA. Since it’s hypothetically possible that New Zealand is also colored red (like Poland), due to it being cropped out (not visible on the map), we can’t be sure that it didn’t ship mines to IKEA.

New Zealand could also be in red, but since it’s cropped out we can’t know for sure.

DuckDuckGo has a browser? Or did they mean “search engine”?
