If Apple is the importer of record for its products, then it does incur and pay the tariff to the U.S. government. But obviously that gets passed along to consumers as no company will simply eat the cost.

$3,500 according to one estimate.

The reaction to Clair Obscur has been wild. I had a friend I haven't talked to since high school - when we were both big Final Fantasy fans - reach out to ask if I'd played it. A bunch of guys at work are talking about it who I didn't even know were gamers. I hope we see a lot more of these passionate, creative projects and the infrastructure to support them.

Well, just last week, UK government lawyers were claiming "no evidence of genocide in Gaza" while defending the sale of military equipment that may flow to Israel, so the UK certainly seems to be talking out both sides of its ass. Or arse, as the case may be.

18 months of Israel's indiscriminate slaughter of Palestinian civilians - mainly in Gaza but also increasingly in the West Bank by military forces and paramilitary "settlers" - and this looks like a pretty damn tepid response.

Better than nothing. But not much better.

Allow limited aid in for a week... then target and kill the aid workers (as they've been doing) and go back to intentionally bombing civilians (as they've been doing) with the end goal of eliminating the Palestinian people and completing the seizure of their land (which was their goal all along).

A lot of asterisks on anything they claim to do. Genocide is always the ultimate intent.

A lot of people put down 10-15% and pay the PMI. That's what we had to do.

Well, I've been across the horizon and back a few times and I never came back a cunt. But I also never came back a Nazi billionaire, and then I'm making no promises.

Depends on the ketamine levels in his blood at any given moment. Sometimes, you edit your prompts from a k-hole, and everyone knows you can't authorize your own actions when you're fully dissociated.

Yo ho ho (and a bottle of rum)!

Dammit, I thought we'd always been at war with Eastasia.

It blows my mind how active this sub is. They've barely sold any of the damn things and yet every day there are multiple new images where people have managed to wreck them.

Yeah, 100%. "Review bombing" suggests that people are leaving disingenuous bad reviews due to some personal or political axe to grind with the developer. This just looks like a game that got a lukewarm reception, but at least the information in the article doesn't suggest that any review bombing is occurring.

I'm a big Ori fan, and I wish Moon Studios the best. But the games market is oversaturated right now, and it's a tough time for all indie devs. It doesn't necessarily mean that someone is out to get them if their game isn't an overnight success.

There are enough fan boys still salivating over the fascist prick that it doesn't necessarily have to be him.

Also I'm not sure Lemmy has a large enough audience to satiate his endless need for external validation.

Surely you could manage two middle fingers as long as you're not in a sharp turn!

However strongly you feel that way - triple it, and you might be getting close to my sentiments.

It's completely fake!

Also don't come down here

I like the quiet

And game companies and media outlets advertise the shit out of them because they drive console sales.

I much prefer to be on Steam, think, "Oh, that looks cool," then forget about it on my wishlist for two years until it pops up at 80% off.

Trump's term is four years, and he ain't getting any better.

Yeah, the Colorado river is nuts. It's crazy to think that the river that carved the Grand Canyon doesn't even reach the sea anymore because it's all used up along the way, mostly by the U.S.

Honestly we have enough of these fucks already and could do without another.
