As a Canadian, I'd be upset if we got paywalled. The BBC is where I go to for trusted news on international concerns.

Understandable, but I'd still be upset.

I'm curious, what was that about? Lol

I actually like this. No politics. No big name personalities. No distractions.

Just a search bar to ASK me what I want to see before it tells me what it thinks I want to see.

If an ordered item arrives broken once, it's a shitty delivery company. 1-star probably isn't warranted unless the company is shitty about replacing it.

If an ordered item arrives broken regularly, it's a problem that the company should've fixed.

If a game doesn't work on one person's machine, maybe they've got a bunch of malware installed or something.

If it doesn't work on many people's machines that meet the recommended specs, the company is at fault and deserves bad reviews.

If it runs poorly on the recommended specs, bad reviews are warranted.

If it wasn't for the AI nonsense, this could've actually been a great idea.

Businesses might want to use Reddit comments as ads.

Reddit says "Hey, let us find those glowing reviews that we have as Reddit comments, and you can link directly to the original source!"

Then the original comment writer could edit their comments to call political figures pedos, and businesses learn their lesson that this kind of stuff is not suited for using Reddit as a primary source, lol

I was referring to where they said

Bro, it's a YOSHI game

Going based on the expectations set by Yoshi's Island, one wouldn't be off to expect challenge in Yoshi's Story, its follow-up.

I dunno, Yoshi's Island can get pretty hard...

If I wanted an AI summary, I'd put the article into my favourite LLM and ask for one.

I'm sure LLMs can take links sometimes.

And if Wikipedia wanted to include it directly into the site...make it a button, not an insertion.

That is more a failure of the person who made that decision than a failing of ChatBots, lol

Because people want to feel superior because they ~~don't know how to use a ChatBot~~ can count the number of "r"s in the word "strawberry", lol

Going forward? RetroAchievements, Steam, GOG, and LaunchBox to tie it all together. PSN trophy integration to LaunchBox would be cool too, because PS3 stuff is never coming to any of those platforms and I have history there, too.

For historical stuff, that's in my memory exclusively.
