Apparently Fallout 76 now has a subscription fee
They are so ham-fisted it's almost unbelievable. But, earnings estimates are earnings estimates I guess.

Anyone facing problems on gamepass?
Open services and check if gaming services is running. If it can't be manually started from services you might be screwed, it's something wrong with windows. Installation or updates or something. This is just from a google search.

What are you playing now: The New Thread
Jim Sterling likes ToW. Yahtzee Croshaw isn't going to like it, because he doesn't like anything, that's not the format. Anyway, Sterling isn't for sale. So good sign.

Key Binding I J K L
Or.... How about the .ini fiile. IJKL are used in the menus, that's why they can't be rebound. But, if they weren't pointing at menu commands. set Journal, Inventory and so on, to something else. worth a look.

Issues with pre-installing on the Xbox app for windows 10.
I'm getting the same for 4 drives, except C:\ for some reason. It says it's 'not configured for installing games.' Which is clearly nonsense. at least I can install games on my system drive. One or two, it's not very roomy.

Hey
Data is uncountable, so it's 'is'. Saying 'the data are' is simply incorrect. Premise denied !

Question
It must be custom I suppose. It looks like a flatter ethernet connector. I don't have the laptop to check though. I'll just get her a wireless router. Better idea.

Phoenix Point, the next game from X-COM creator Julian Gollop, now on Fig
I dunno if this is heresy or not, but I'm not really interested in Xcom if it's not Firaxis.

Xbox Controller Alternatives
PS4 controllers work with windows, sometimes, a few hours at a time at least. I gave up and am exclusively using xbox controllers now. I recommend getting a proper bluetooth antenna though instead of those tiny dongles.

I have a theory that the culture change is because of the internet. There is no trusted arbiter of truth any more with the diminishing role of traditional media. So, clickbait and fake news, as in factually fake news designed for clicks and emotional appeal, wins out. You know, It's the echo chamber thing, and the fact that people have become used to being abrasive to each other because communication is impersonal. So, attacking the media works. All you have to do is 'win' doesn't matter if you are correct.

Well, Trump has been systematically dismantling government agencies and installing his cronies. So, I guess the (over) reaction will be the reinstatement of those. the whistle blower is more than likely a representative of the status quo, so I mean it's not entirely wrong to say that the 'deep state' got him, even if it happened without a plan as such.

Isn't it more a question of finally having had enough. Trump is demonstrating himself as incompetent enough for it to spill over into Republican waters.

Amazing, the orange disaster finally appears to have imploded. All it took was him being him. He's not bouncing back from this is he. Don't pick a populist next time.

Money makes the world go around I guess, even if that means people disappearing in the middle of the night or being sent to 'reeducation' camps. It's an old story though. China has been leveraging trade vs critique of its system for a long time and most countries have been playing along in one form or another. They can't afford not to. So, why would corporations be any different. That said, I piss on the NBA and Blizzard from a great height.
