Just to add to this, I also like to use the “donate for a friend” option to gift friends a donation to Signal on their birthdays. It’s also $5 but a one-off thing, they get a neat badge for 60 days and perhaps it raises awareness of the donation option a little bit!

Could you accept a world where someone does it intentionally as a joke?

I really like this! Do you sell prints anywhere online or anything like that?

It seems that Spotify doesn't accurately count plays for tracks under 30 seconds. I had a look through some of the albums I know of with short tracks and here's what I found:

In fact I found the MGMT album 11​•​11​•​11 has a 26 second long track with no reported plays.

So while it's probably true that people are listening to fewer full albums than they used to in the days of vinyl or CD, it seems more likely to do with Spotify only paying royalties on tracks over 30 seconds and the discussion surrounding that.

I’m glad this is being brought up. As the article mentions, one of the affected games was the Ghost Trick remaster which received a 5.6GB update with no explanation. It was only through data mining that people realised Denuvo was removed in favour of Enigma.

The worst part for me is that Enigma lives up to its name and people have been left guessing about where it’s coming from. Some people think it’s Capcom’s in-house DRM while others are linking it to some Russian company with the same name that Capcom may have partnered with.

As I understand, this DRM has already been cracked so it’s not even stopping people who want to pirate the game. On the other hand, I love Ghost Trick and I wanted to buy gift copies for some friends over Christmas but this move really put me off.

I think we’re looking at the same video then, the one with less than 10,000 views after 24 hours. Yeah that video isn’t a real trailer, it’s just using recycled clips from the first film and guessing what might happen in the second one

I have no idea what the context for the photo is but I assumed they wanted their printed paper signed

Pretty sure it’s a joke based on the way the headline was written which makes it ambiguous whether the 12 year old was in the forklift or whether the police chasing him were in the forklift.

I believe that’s the fediverse logo in the middle!

Linking this here just because I only discovered that Nathan For You episode yesterday and would hate for anyone to miss out on the reference: Youtube / Piped.

Edit: fixed broken Piped link

These summaries are usually decent from what I’ve seen but this one misses out some important information. The fourth and fifth paragraphs of the summary make no sense without the context that the athlete was disqualified for a false start and then still allowed to run.

What a goal! Thanks for posting it here!
