China has announced a ban on Gacha game mechanics (and lootboxes, predatory discounts, and gambling) which should hopefully ripple out to Europe and the US soon.
A lot of these mechanics were adapted from the Chinese gaming market and I think the same will likely happen in the reverse.

Intel was struggling beyond the oxidation stuff. ARM and RISC are gonna make them obsolete even if AMD doesn’t.
I pray people with a victim blaming complex like this seek therapy before it’s too late.
I’m joining the war on us Vs them
on the side of them
Probably in relation to the Chinese govt. banning these practices too. We’ll see a lot of governments following shit soon hopefully.
what else were they meant to spend it on, improving their country’s economy?
People always use that argument like it isn’t dangerous being gay, trans, etc. in the US. don’t throw stones in glass houses

If consoles want to remain relevant in the age of the gaming PC, they have to try harder than being locked-down gaming PCs.
Free and simple multiplayer, subsidised hardware, and physical game ownership were staples of most consoles for years but now the urge to turn every device into an “everything machine” has kneecapped the very purpose of these devices.
At best, these are slightly less hassle and slightly more social than a gaming PC. At worst, they’re as anti-social and user-hostile without the cost benefit that once made them genuinely preferable.
The same relationship of the cost of high virulence hurting the fitness of a pathogen may not apply if hosts are kept in proximity that a fast death doesn’t necessarily mean the pathogen cannot find a new host.
It may have been how the 1918 flu pandemic was so deadly yet still successful at spreading to new hosts; being spread amongst soldiers in trenches and infirmaries and troop ships compared.
Plus, there are evolutionary pressures on pathogens to become more virulent; using less resources by the host only leads to being outcompeted by more virulent pathogens. While mortality is a limiting factor, there is a temporary benefit to strategies that select for virulence until that limit is reached.
All we need is a world conflict to recreate the exact conditions of the 1918 influenza pandemic.
The “Hamas” number is just the official number provided by whatever healthcare workers are still alive after Israel’s year-long explicit campaign to vaporise them.
Almost every conflict/genocide in history has way lower official death tolls because of exactly this: Either the victims are killed off before they can report their own numbers, or there is simply no means to confirm every death. If an entire family is crushed under rubble, you’re not going to be able to report that.
The numbers given (5x the official number or whatever) is through analysis of these historical tragedies and the discrepancy between the official/initial totals and the “accurate”/researched totals.
It might be crude, but it is much more reflective of the very visible disaster being allowed to unfold than the Gaza Health Ministry which is barely able to account for a hundred dead per day. It is likely even more, considering the thousands in death/torture camps set up across the Zionist state; Many of these prisoners were taken from work on October 7th/8th and haven’t been freed since.
Weird deflection, because it’s common knowledge that the Tories are islamophobic and evil, but the moment anyone mentions this about Labour, Starmerite sycophants like you storm in to cover it up.
Jeremy Corbyn was vindicated for his defence of Palestine, where will you be in 30 years when someone asks what you did about the genocide?

30 arms exports out of 350, and gives an exception for the components required for F-35Bs which were used to bomb a school the same day this was announced.
Lammy even said this will have a negligible impact on Israeli military power.
This is a clear attempt at trying to turn the public on-side whilst collaborating with Israel to ensure the bombs keep dropping more than ever. Especially suspicious is that some of the licenses being suspended appear to be for arms that are already being limited by Palestine Action’s sabotage campaign.
It’s still 30 less licenses than last week, but it’s too little and too late. Labour has an institutional islamophobia problem and as such is not interested at all in leveraging its position to end the genocide.
