  • Holy hell, is it bad. Oliver says it’s like early PS4 game but that outdoor lighting is straight out of Switch game. I’d say it’s better to run previous gen version so that at least it looks consistently bad. And it still drops to 40fps? They even managed to break VRR on Xbox which is pretty much free on that platform. LOL

    Also, is it just me or is this thing just too hard too read? Those fonts at such low contrast just make my eyes bleed (take a look at MP values for player character).

    Hopefully this is fixed by Metaphor: ReFantazio: ReFantazio’ed. I can wait.













  • Alternatively, the issue may not be an increase in credit demand but rather a decrease in supply. This, too, could be due to shifting preferences from the future to the present. Previously, someone might have saved a tenth of their monthly salary, but now they’ve stopped.

    For the love of $god, credit is not funded by deposits since we dropped gold standard. Commercial banks “print” money at the time of lending it, otherwise they would have to be secured at ~100% of money lent and not ~5-15% as it is now.

    This opinion piece is based off Austrian economics, pseudoscience that’s very popular in Eastern Europe (where Insider is based in). They do a lot of good investigative work but this one is kind of embarrassing.






  • Google is big enough to be considered a monopoly in mobile phone operating systems. Play Store is technically a separate service / business which enjoys unfair advantage of being installed by default. I think this approach might be good because it’s better for user experience (unlike EU web browser thing for example) and has a good shot at postiviely affecting power balance between app developers and platform owner.

    I’m curious how this will play out. Apple should be next obviously.
