The FAQ reads as "not yet", not "won't". This is second-hand but my impression is that publishing patches through GOG is not as easy as through other platforms (possibly because of…

You can but having to hook it up to a mouse and keyboard and monitor every time I want to install new games from not-Steam would be a pain.

We can do that on our developers' machines no problem, but there still needs to be a place for QA to do their testing.

Target as well. It was one thing when it was just Amazon acting as a sketchy third party storefront, but now everybody’s doing it.

I haven't found digital signage displays with the same brightness for HDR content, or variable refresh rate support.

Interdiction at the ports is the buyer's problem, not the seller's. Kidnapping people because of their employer sounds like a great way to lose tourism permanently.

It’s sustainable at $1/month at current costs, but those costs will go up over time. The subscription price could be raised accordingly but they can’t go back and ask for an inflat…

Per your link, Sony will soon be disallowing new purchases, but has not set a date for disallowing downloads of existing purchases.

Amazon may not be going away tomorrow, but they have form for disallowing redownloads of old ebook purchases. If you dared to buy ebooks from them pre-Kindle, you can't access them…

Only additional third-party DRM is listed there, not Steam's own DRM.

Until Steam starts telling me before I buy which games have their DRM and which doesn't, they belong in the same category as Sony and Microsoft.

Just as you can download old games on Steam for now. Either will pull the plug whenever they want.

Sony wouldn’t see any benefit from switching to game key discs. Nintendo introduced them to save on manufacturing costs, but game key discs wouldn’t give Sony any additional market…

You can still download games for PS3 and Vita after they stop selling them. It’s no different from how Steam no longer sells some titles it used to.

Or they’ll just stop “selling” copies in those territories and only allow short-term rentals or monthly subscription services.

Don’t jurisdictions generally offer ID cards for non-drivers that are functionally equivalent for ID purposes, you just can’t drive?

Some people don’t want to carry two devices and prefer BYOD, even if the company offers a work phone.

Wait, I thought one project = one assembly, so you would never have "types in assemblies in the same project which the current assembly depends on". Should that be same solution in…

It seems trivially simple until you have two dependencies with conflicting exact version requirements... So I don't think you can get rid of floating versions entirely. They did ad…

But just the dependency list isn't sufficient to pick a specific version, thanks to dependency ranges. If Package A depends on Package B >= 1.0, and Package B has v1.0 and v1.1 ava…

NuGet is lock-by-default for the parent package, but with the move from packages.config to it's no longer lock-by-default for dependencies.

Could be worse. It’s finally gone now but I believe that my employer used VS6 as late as 2025.

It’s the opposite - if a 12-year-old thinks it’s cool it probably needs a rethink.

Amazon.jp does ship everywhere, but their international items use a separate warehouse, and sometimes items are only stocked in the domestic one(s) and are unavailable for internat…
