rootless podman ftw.

Nope. That they interfered as soon as they could. Only DA1 and ME1 are nigh universally heralded as great.

I wonder why that might be…

I mean… After the buyout, you BET YOUR FUCKING ASS “EA” made every dumbass inept call against them that’s physically possible.

The PHP vulnerabilities (yes there is more than one) are relatively easy to exploit if you can fiddle with what requests your server receives (easy).

The DNS exploit requires someone to figure out how to man-in-the-middle your connection. While that is trivial for governments, it is much less likely to be done by purely bad actors, simply for how hard “internet” integration is and how visible the problem ends up.

Both are big problems, but only one of them is continually exploitable, as the DNS issues have been largely resolved even before the very public disclosure.

Ohgod… that still SCREAMS interference to me… Nobody could be confident in their stance because dissent from corporate mandate meant firing, not a hearing out and debate…

Otherwise, lead devs have many ways to force progress in a certain direction. Only fuckhead exec “direction” comes with such constant blueballing of actual progress.

So then, that really begs the question: Why were they not allowed to take it back to the design board when the design fundamentally changed?

Again, this is not a “developer” problem, but a fucko owner problem.

Eh, that doesn’t necessarily define where the source of pressure came from. Making unique games is an entirely different level of skill/time/commitment than what they were given.

IMO, it’s nigh equally likely that they started with the verticality design as part of it and didn’t have the time to cook the idea into something neat, vs it being a later mandate after some core designs had development. The only thing that really leads me to believe that the ideas were in early is in the character designs: They were clearly meant to fly in some way, even if it might’ve been in a Halo jetpack sort of way early on. (which has less evidence)

This is one of 94747252795 reasons to NEVER give these big corporations a single ounce of control over anything.

I do not believe it for the simple reason that the levels are very vertically based, iirc. If core verticality was a mandate from shitheads after production started rolling, it would’ve come out in an even worse state.

Again, nobody is asking for the high level view or an analogy. They’re asking for a specific fix.

The question is how does that, “issue a certificate” step work and does it require port 80, not what is the 10000 foot view.

Definitely happens both ways for me depending on the occurence.

I can definitely read text in some dreams. Not even lucid ones. Not like reading a novel, but signs or things I, “need to read” have words, and often legible, at least shorter words.

The US isn’t the only place with evil politicians that cowtow to big business.

Yes they do solve your issue, just not in the way you wanted.

Sounds like you need to do some growing up, too. Most of the time in the real world, imperfect answers are your only viable answers.

Then reply to the entire rest of their message where they said they’re assuming you being a creep isn’t the case…?

Humanity’s fine if we ripped down these over-paid pedos instead of allowed them to run billion dollar scams…
