Yes exactly. A large number of their older titles exist on other platforms like the Switch and of course, the PC, where gamepass lets people play those titles for a very affordable price.

All the more reason then to make games like Starfield and Halo infinite the absolute best games they could be

Halo Infinite - failed
Starfield - failed
Forza Motorsport - terrible launch
Redfall - failed

Out of curiosity, I googled exclusives for Xbox series exclusives. They've got things like Forza Horizon 5, sunset overdrive and Ori. Like, sure, but you can't say proudly that your console is being held aloft by 4+ year old titles when the competition is releasing banger after banger!

They just missed the mark. You can spend billions on R&D and marketing for a new console, billions on buying up game studios to make new games, but if your games suck on launch, people won't play on your console.

What XBox has done this generation is borderline suicide.

The right answer in this case

Trump promised he won't open the Epstein files if he gets re-elected. Suddenly Musk started throwing money at him and breaking any rule to censor the opposition party and smear them.

This has little to do with the lying orange Turd. Musk cares about his own pedo past and is desperate to not have that info leak out.

Fair point, makes sense. Thanks!

Why are they still saying "suspected" shooter?

How much evidence does one need before they can definitely say something?

Can you imagine your own mind having unskippable ads?

Can you imagine buying products you don't want because you're suddenly compelled to do so and you have no idea why.

Neuralink is going to be hell, purely because the person in charge of it is Elon Musk.

He wants the presidency to exonerate himself. That's it. He knows he's going to prison if he loses the election.

He has zero care or motivation to further the country once he's in power. He wants to save his own ass and his properties.

I mean, it does look like a sensible option. BRICS countries are growing in number and their combined wealth is nothing to sneeze at.

Turkey was never really allowed to be a part of EU and therefore will join the cool new club while the rest of Europe grows in far right rhetoric, and generally anti islamic sentiment.

From this link:

"I do not want the administrative workload that comes with donations. I do not want the project to become in need of funding in any way: no dedicated home page + no forum = no cost = no need for financial support. I want to be free to move on to something else if ever I get tired of working on these projects (no donations = no expectations).

Have a thought for the maintainers of the various lists. These lists are everything. I can not emphasize this enough."

While the developer doesn't accept donations, they do encourage donating to the people maintaining the block lists. I've contributed in the past and would happily keep doing so.

It would be a shame if the devs maintaining the block lists stop doing what they're doing because it's not sustainable enough for them.

If you're implying Trump should lead America again, you're literally insane. Anyone who believes that man should be let near a position of power - let alone the highest office in the US - is either ignorant or has vested interest in the decision.

If you're convinced that what's happening in Palestine is par for the course, and that Israel's actions are justified, and that the people protesting around the globe for Palestine are being over dramatic, you're ignorant, blind and truly deluded, or, again, you've some personal bias towards Israel which fails to allow you to accept reality.

If you don't agree with both of the above statements, then you cannot disagree with my comment. I said Trump cannot win because he isn't fit for office. I also implied that Biden is tarnished by the Israel conflict to be seen in a positive light by his voters. If the Dems want the win, they can't possibly go into an election with a president who is actively leaning into his "Genocide Joe" moniker. They need another candidate.
