@jas_d_barbie Cold is easier to have contingencies for if infrastructure struggles. Heat has a lot less options especially if it’s really humid or no humidity at all.
@KenMastersUSA Not to mention you can find abandonware
HIGHLY recommend No One Lives Forever if you like spy stuff and beautiful, horrible cringe but like… the GOOD Cringe?
@Evanit0 It’s HOW these storefronts and systems handle Digital Rights Management that is the issue.
Playstation has in the past forcibly uninstalled content from devices (Concord as an example, never played it but the few who liked it can’t access at all now)

@Monikaahveimbx I am looking forward to SLMs (literally just an app on a phone or computer that can fully run locally and doesn’t destroy the environment), but LLMs are where the threats/power is so those in charge want THAT
@Monikaahveimbx While it’s not the ONLY contributing factor… LLMs are still a big one. Issue is it’s such a powerful tool that those in power are struggling to advance theirs and build defenses against malicious actors. Unfortunately it’s “they wont take the high ground so we cant either” isms.
@aerithsroses I feel bad for this, but in the right pic the girl playing Mai looks like she is thinking “why is my belt so high I look like a 90 yo white man, what is wrong with you, I will skin you alive for this… you, your child, and their children… all skinned…”
