If you’re continuing to use the previous version in CI, there’s no reason to not use this locally. It’s a tremendous speed upgrade.

Unrelated. I noticed that the settings window (Cmd-,) text inputs all type from the right instead of the left like older macOS inputs (or web inputs[0])

Is that a thing macOS is moving to? I'm sure I've seen Apple use these too.

GeneralsX is the macOS port. It ported a 20 year old game.

Further, why has my brain's searing remake of Snow White as a gritty murder mystery gone unscathed by Disney lawyers? Surely their negligence has diluted the Snow White trademark!

It does permit something individuals don’t have: the internal investigation.

The internal investigation has determined that our CEO had no knowledge of this, and that the bloody pig mask was all the idea of the people who make less money, and also we fired the CEO for unrelated reasons.

Yeah - what happens when a forum post quotes 8 different conversations?

It’d need to be a whole new thing, not just a new view on top of phpBB

That new thing could be possible, though

Although it's just anecdata, after spending $600 on the console, I certainly was dismayed to find 10-year old games only being sold at their original prices. Surely they should at least track inflation?

Perhaps Sony could add an optional tipping screen before digital checkout for the good customers.

I don't think this covers comments (...on subreddits you don't mod)

It's definitely been a lot harder for me to uncover sockpuppetry

When you say you "give it back the same," are you saying you also are savage in reviewing their PRs, or that you are savage when replying negatively to their feedback?

If just the former, I strongly disagree that the two of you are arguing.

To illustrate why this is stupid, I will furnish two links to purchase Dark Souls 3 (PS4, 2016)

Ebay, to buy: $11 + shipping[0]

PS Store, to rent: $60[1]
