You definitely have a point... if US was the only country in the world and Uber did not provide a much better service than our local taxis. I mean yeah the local ones are cheaper but considering overall service, fuck no.

For me, one of the major advantages of Game Pass is publishers are absolutely refusing to put local regional pricing nowadays. Games at 60$+ cannot be bought by anyone with middle class salaries. Now with push to 70-80 usd+ for AAA, even AA games getting to 60$ it is impossible to buy in my country.

So why should I get a single game at those prices when I can get few hundred at similar pricing? It's MSs problem that they are willing to put their games day 1 on GP not mine. I don't care whether games are getting "devalued" or whatever, I'm simply getting what I paid for.

Also, people do tend to buy games standalone and I really can't see that going away honestly. I can't see games ever going subscription only or anything like that.

I know, I know lmfao. But that doesn't mean I'm not going to leach the hell out of this until it goes away.

Not going to happen, quite a few phones have 65W+ chargers nowadays which wireless can't replicate

Have the primary contributers moved to CoMaps as well?

Comaps is a fork I think. Organic maps will live on

I really want to see an LLM vs LLM chess match. It'll be messy as hell.
