I just re-read the comment chain and saw it was mentioned before. Oops lol

Might be unbreakable, but all the attacker has to do is put money on it once and then just duplicate the card. You don't need to beat the encryption. You just need to make the machine think the card is legit

I'd rather deal with a poorly designed bottle cap than half the shit we have to deal with here in the US. There's a reason you're getting down voted. What you said is so narrow sighted that it's not even funny.

We have MUCH larger issues we have to deal with than a stupid bottle cap. "Glad I don't have to deal with that here" is showing a willingness to ignore everything else.

Is THAT your litmus for freedom?! In some states women can't choose to have an abortion. And in all of the states people have to choose between going to the doctor or paying rent that month... But goddamnit, at least they don't have to deal with those pesky tethered bottle caps!

Oh good Lord. Fuckin idiots.

Ootl... What's going on with that particular power plant?

Nope. They claim that some of it has to do with Unity and the way the engine is coded and not just their own code... Which might be true to an extent, but they've also admitted that their own code is hard to work with because it's all gotten so complex.

As for selling their own cheats... Man who knows... Money IS a great motivator.

Can't blame you, tbh... It's been a shit show. Hopefully they figure it out, but they've been pretty tone deaf at every turn over the past few years so it's likely that they'll just try to ride this out until the community just kinda... forgets about it. Which is sad. One reason being that we shouldn't be in this position to begin with... The other is that it shows that companies can literally just bend us all over and as long as they walk back the extreme behaviour a little bit, they'll get away with it.

I've killed more than a few people with bigger pockets than normal and it just saddens me that people can actually support this nonsense.

HERE'S LOOKING AT YOU, BATTLESTATE GAMES

Keep the rubber side down, also.

In the helicopter world is "keep the spinny bits up"

So... Not quite how it works. The company gets an authorized number of shares which it can then issue out, or sell to shareholders.

If you own 100 shares out of the 1000 they are authorized, you own 10% of the company.

Now if they request and are authorized more shares (which is what happened here), your stake in the company is cut down. Let's say they get authorized and issue another 1000 shares, bringing them to 2000 total shares. You now only own 5% of the company.

And with these new shares hitting the open market, prices will drop because now there is "more supply than demand" (it's an easy way to think about it). In theory the whole thing will eventually even out, but that generally doesn't happen here because the value of the company hasn't changed.

This whole thing is different compared to a stock split, which affects the price and the number of stocks, but not your overall stake in it. If a company does a 2:1 split, your shares will double, but the price per share will be cut in half. 10 shares at $10 now becomes 20 shares at $5... Your stake is still at $100

You're joking, right? You realize the group of people you're talking about, yea? This bot 110% would be used to further their agenda. Real discussion isn't their goal and it never has been.
