Covid was created by toilet paper manufacturers to generate demand in lockdown.

What about MPV (or mpv.net)

Unless you're the United States, Russia (or the former Soviet Union), or China - you're not going to place first in the overall medal table and everyone's fine with that. It's about doing the best you can, doing your country proud and being at the top of your field.

If Netflix made a movie about the Chris saga, who would play the main roles?

They did lots of testing, contract tracing, and of course, they actually wear masks.

It's really not hard to see why China has covid under control, unlike countries which have frequent anti-mask and anti-vaxx rallies.

Even with all of those things, China has the biggest population in the world. It's impossible that the numbers they're giving out are legit. Or do you think North Korea are being honest with their 0 cases reported as well?

I'd take that deal for nothing, to be honest.

It's still a work in progress. If you don't mind crashes, BSODs and general instability go for it. I'd only recommend installing it on a 2nd machine or a virtual one right now. Wait for the full release before installing it on your main machine.

Can the anti-vaxxers summon help?

Just bring back David Tennant or Matt Smith and I'll watch again.

If you're open to audio dramas, then both Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant have reprised their roles on audio.

Whittaker wasn't the problem - Chris Chibnall was. But now we're both leaving we'll never get to see what Jodie Whittaker could be like with good writers.

got one shot of astra, been 5 days, my shoulder still hurt when pressed or stressed too much, is that normal for you guys

My experience was my arm ached for about 2 days after the AZ shot. For the second shot, I didn't experience any side effects.

A baby that had a baby, weird innit?

flat-earthers are dumber, anti-vaxxers are more harmful

This. Believing the earth is flat doesn't hurt anyone else, anti-vaxxers can be responsible for deaths.

Ever17 is legitimately fantastic, and the twist in the final route blew my mind. How could the same person write that and Zero Time Dilemma?

"If" he dies?

I like in the undeniable wave of facts of how harmful and dangerous anti vaxxers are, the narrative has shifted from downplaying them to going ",Well they're not a majority!!!"

That no one ever said.

Not even an apology from the same users for all the shit they gave me for opposing anti vaxxers

Considering that 87% of the population has had at least one vaccine, anti-vaxxers clearly aren't as dangerous as you believe. Anti-vaxxers can be found in every country, it's not unique to the UK, the US or even the West as a whole. Thankfully most people recognize these people are lunatics.

I'd argue that anti-maskers are a bigger problem than anti-vaxxers, considering the majority of people I see aren't wearing masks and the government are in a hurry to encourage people to ditch wearing masks...except when they do a U-turn and ask people to be responsible and wear masks. Asking the "great" British public to act responsibly is asking for disaster.

Out of all the countries polled, the UK:

• Had the highest trust in vaccines
• Had the highest willingness to take a vaccine
• Were the least worried about vaccine side effects

And considering that over 67% of the entire population have been fully vaccinated (and 87% have had at least one), anti-vaxxers are a loud minority in the UK and you know it. (source: https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/vaccinations)

You also need to enable Secure Boot.

At least when I attend the weekly public execution I don't have to worry about breathing in second-hand smoke.

Back in the day, we used to call things like these cheats.

Giving a player god mode does not improve accessibility, it's a lazy way to implement it.

Er, the UKs low Eurovision score is actually all politics.

They dropped heavily for years when the UK joined the Iraq wars.

And now the UK is boycottrd ever since they voted to leave the EU.

We've been doing terrible at Eurovision even before we voted to leave the EU.
We voted in 2016 to leave - in 2017 we came 20/26, 2018 we came 20/26, and 2019 we came 25/26 (pro-EU Germany came last). I don't think it's right to put the blame on leaving the EU more like we just sent a shit song.

All the ex-Soviet states do vote for each other though.

Yes, but only in crowded areas and indoors. If I'm just out for a walk in the park then no.

At least in Automata the repeated playthroughs were different enough to keep you going.

With Replicant, you're playing through the exact same game again three times (two if you make another save before going for ending C) with only slight story differences. The side quests are all exactly the same - go to place X, kill monster, go back to quest giver. You don't need to do all the side quests to get the endings but you do need to collect all the weapons in the game to be able to access endings C/D.

Bad marketing from Nintendo's side. No-one knew what it was - was it an add-on to the original Wii? Was it an original new console?

Was this the lady that started the drama about mishearing a slur in the Persona 5 vocals because she didnt understand people have accents and didnt bother checking the lyrics?

No, but it was another Kotaku "journalist".

Or, alternatively, people can criticize the media they consume and the company can decide whether or not that criticism warrants changing the product

Sounds pretty entitled to me.

That's nice and all but you seem to think that it's easy enough for developers to click their fingers and make a difficulty slider appear. It has to be designed, coded, implemented, etc... If a difficulty slider wasn't included as part of the original design, it'll now probably be out of scope to add one so far along into development. And if the game has already released? The vast majority of the team will probably have moved onto another project. It's unlikely that a publisher is going to allocate resources to add a difficulty slider.

Let developers make the games they want to make. If they want a difficulty slider in, fair enough.

If the developers want it to be hard, let them. If the developers want to make it easy, let them.

They shouldn't be hounded by twitter nobodies in order to make the game how they want it.

The addition of trigger warnings in game ruin the surprise. Why would you "play" this version instead of the original free version?

Compared to other conspiracy theorists, they're harmless.

Im not against vaccinations, but We still dont know long term effects @_@

We know the long term effects of contracting Covid though.

No, they only said I needed to wait if I was driving but I got a lift there so I was allowed to leave after the jab.

It should have had them at launch. It's pretty much a dead game now, takes ages to find a game. I don't know if this will save it or not.

But enough about that, let's watch the stupid concert performance one more time.

The Intel Inside

Englishman here - it's very rare to see an English flag or Union Flag outside of sporting events (like the Euros - the English flag is everywhere right now). The only time you can be sure of seeing a flag is going to your town hall or something similar.

Credible leakers have already revealed who it is, check Twitter.

It's Master Chief.

I'll show you the true power of Chaos Control.

It would be a unanimous yes because Colors is very widely liked

Sonic Colours would be great if the wisps weren't involved. Why Sonic Team insist on stuffing them into every game after Colours is beyond me.

I remember it took me 45 minutest to beat Eggmanland. No Sonic game should have a level that long.

Justice for All is pretty mediocre but 2-4 is the best case of the entire series.

Do you know what soyface is?

Youtube, stop recommending me this guy - and while you're at it, fuck off with that "pretending to be crazy" video you're pushing hard.

I've not watched him but I keep getting his soyface thumbnails recommended to me thanks to the YouTube algorithm .

What's the issue? It's called acting.

You're literally arguing I didn't buy a kitkat from Morrisons because that fact upsets you. Re-evaluate your life right now

Go and buy another one. You've had multiple British people in this thread and the last one confirm that KitKats don't look like that.
