  • Behöver du obegrĂ€nsad surf “pĂ„ riktigt” baserat pĂ„ ditt anvĂ€ndande?

    För annars tycker jag att du bara borde byta till telias (eller nĂ„n annan operatörs) lĂ„gprisalias. Hallon, vimla, fello etc. Telia specifikt Ă€ger Fello tror jag och delar tĂ€ckning. Ingen bindning, lĂ„ga fasta kostnader jĂ€mfört med telekomjĂ€ttarnas “normala” abonnemang, men framför allt ingen som försöker pracka pĂ„ dig paketerbjudanden konstant eller anti-churn avdelningar man mĂ„ste förhandla med.

    De vanliga abonnemangen pÄ standardoperatörernas enda existensberÀttigande Àr folk som behöver extremt specifika abonnemangsformer och som boomer-skatt för folk som inte vet att lÄgprisvarianterna finns.











  • This article is more disinformation than the initial comparisons were.

    The author clearly has no 3D experience. OF COURSE they had to fucking scale the models, 3D assets from different games and engines are not going to automatically share the same coordinate space. The point is that a lot of geometry that make up various pals is similar enough to pokemon parts that it has almost definitely been either traced or retopologized from the Pokemon originals. Multiple pals are just kitbashed together from random recreated bits of existing pokemon.

    I don’t care about any vague AI accusations. I don’t care or know if what they’ve done is legal, I’m not a lawyer. I haven’t played a pokemon game since Red. But it should be clear that Palworld is at best creatively bankrupt, and they used their similarity to existing IP to gain viral success.

    I’m not saying it’s a mechanically bad game. I’m not saying you should feel bad for playing it.

    But this stuff is definitely ethically questionable and deserves to be discussed, and that is not helped by some idiots who do not understand 3D modeling weighing in about how “all the similarities were faked”. Because they were not.









  • Personally, I was fine with paying for “Premium Lite”, which was reasonably priced, removed ads, and gave channels you watched some revenue.

    But youtube removed this subscription tier a few weeks ago, leaving only the twice as expensive “Premium”. Since I, and I assume most others who subscribed to “Premium Lite”, has no use for the other stuff included in the more expensive tier the cost is no longer justified for me. Back to finding increasingly exotic ways of getting around their ads I guess.
