    <em>Wizardry</em> remaster keeps Apple II vibes but adds graphics and modern graces

    Bob Woodhead was one of the people behind wizardry, and they've all been fighting for years, he is one of the first Anime companies, and they wouldn't let him license the anime based on wizardry that he cocreated So I'm surprised they could agree on a remaster.

    A that's not why. They've been fighting a war with "protestant" scientologists, and want to deny them access to e-meters by enforcing their copyrights. They started serializing the devices like Apple does for this reason Of course, they should all just be locked up for fraud. The FBI needs...

    Xbox’s new “8 strikes” moderation judges cheating and profanity equally harshly

    Yes, they correctly saw that it was likely to result in lawsuits that with juries they were going to win. And also that the policy did nothing to stop people from being jerks, and everything to chase them away from spending money on Xbox

    Because you can't compete with free? It's piracy, and anyone who claims 99%+ of people won't use it for piracy is either delusional or lying, because it flies in the face of 30 years of history.

    The solid legal theory behind Nintendo’s new emulator takedown effort

    For the good of everyone. Entitled children and pirates need to be severely punished so they learn to respect copyright. Modding a game Punishment is key. most of them are poor and suing unprofitable. Flogging is legal in WA state wher NOA is located via contract . Seems to me a live broadcast...

    Legal emulation? I'll bet you can't even find me 100 people that only emulate titles they own the physical board for Its piracy, and people like MVG have been given threatening letters from Nintendo, and sadly not lawsuits for encouraging it. Microsoft should ban the consoles and accounts of...

    FCC chair proposes ban on deceptive “Broadcast TV” and “Regional Sports” fees

    They should ban forcing you to pay for sports. I already unwillingly pay for sports in the form of my taxes supporting these billion dollar companies.

    <em>Star Citizen</em> faces “major” server outage, still isn’t close to launch

    I was sold Wing Commander six on Kickstarter, I'm still waiting for Wing Commander six even though they have since stripped out the four player co-op and obviously haven't been working on it at all except in tiny little ways.

    Sales of vinyl albums overtake CDs for the first time since the late ’80s

    If your hearing was good you’d realize how bad vinyl sounds. It has half the frequency response of a CD, before you get to the distortion, the snap crackle, pop, the evrything else we decided sucked 40 years ago. Packaging is the only place vinyl has a leg up, and I have vinyl size CD sets...

    How the PS5’s DualSense controller is failing disabled players

    It’s not something they care about or that is important to them. They’re a Japanese company, in Japan, until very recently disabled people were hidden from society. You never saw people out in a wheelchair I think in the 6+ months of my life I’ve spent there I’ve seen less than half a dozen...
