The misleading, wasteful way we measure gas mileage, explained
  • Just drop the M - GPH/gallons per hundred is just as short and easy to say as MPG.
    In Australia we say "litres per hundred", there's no point specifying kilometres because what else would it be?

    Dunkey's Guide to Streaming Services
  • What we actually need is a ban on exclusivity. There aren't nearly as many complaints about music streaming services because most music is on all of them.

    Plus if more TV and movies were on multiple streaming services, they'd have to start competing on service instead of exclusive content and maybe actually improve the experience...

    Baldur’s Gate 3 lead says Wizards of the Coast “is not to blame” for new direction
  • It's worth clarifying that it's the Divinity: Original Sin games that are similar style CRPGs, and I'm assuming you mean Original Sin 2.

    There is a game called Divinity 2, but it's wildly different (I still love it though)

    Artist behind Mona’s ladies-only lounge ‘absolutely delighted’ man is suing for gender discrimination
  • Sounds like someone didn't read the full article:

    Mona’s legal team will be relying on the tribunal’s interpretation of section 26 of Tasmania’s Anti-Discrimination Act, under which a person is permitted to discriminate against another person in a situation designed to promote equal opportunity for a group of people who are disadvantaged or have a special need because of a prescribed attribute – in this case gender.

    It is under clauses like this in most of Australia’s anti-discrimination legislation that organisations such as male-only clubs and women-only gyms are able to operate.

    A former Activision executive has sued the publisher in California state court accusing the company of age discrimination and violating the state's whistleblower protection law, as reported by Law360.

    The suit was filed earlier this week by a 57-year-old former tech executive who worked for the company from 2014 until being laid off as part of a restructuring in the Activision Blizzard's Central Tech department last August.

    The lawsuit gives several examples to establish that Activision Blizzard discriminated against him, starting with statements Bobby Kotick allegedly made at a leadership conference that the "problem" with Activision Blizzard is that "there are too many old white guys." (The suit doesn't say exactly when the conference was.)

  • Exactly, I'd much rather have more games like this compared to bland bullshit that's just trying to appeal to as many people as possible at the cost of anything actually interesting
