I can't believe people expected it to look like the trailer cutscenes.

Guilty of that. I'm surprised (from the leaks, so take a massive grain of salt with that) it looks and feels like Red Dead Redemption 2, but in Florida, with cars...

Attachment A asks Microsoft to return that identifier for every account that was a member of, or communicated with any of the three listed Discord servers between June 1, 2026 and the present, in addition to the three handles named in the filings.

I haven't looked in the directions of these servers... and I feel itchy.

OneDrive contents? No company should be allowed access to that. Looks like it's time to encrypt OneDrive. Actually, all cloud storage should have some encryption that doesn't rely on the provider.

If you upload to OneDrive, and they turn it on by default with the forced login now for online-only 11, you agree that it is not your data anymore.

Not saying it's right, but if you care (and even if you don't, but I expect people are too addicted to "convenience" to avoid it even if they do care) keep your shit out of the systems of Microslop and Be More Evil, Inc.

You have to be this stupid if you’re using discord to discuss and plan illegal activities.

[–] kaidenshi@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago

Doesn’t change the fact that this is severe overreach that any sane judge would slap them down for.

Hold up I misplaced my tiny violin

Or you could let Rockstar release the game and let your shareholders take a 0.5% hit to their stock portfolio and make it up in the games actual release..

No no no that makes too much sense and the shareholders won't get a 1.5% bump if you release it before the next shareholders something something.

I'm not even going to buy GTA6 until I can buy with a disc.

You all don't care about me, enjoy your game.. Until it's disc based I won't be buying it.

I haven't played GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas or GTA 4 for a while.. I'll play those instead.

I understand wanting something physical but at the same time I really don't see why a disc helps in this day and age, even if you have the disc they can take away access to your game at any time and you just install the game to your console anyway. Why does this piece of plastic actually help?

[–] BigBoyShuanzee@aussie.zone 2 points 4 days ago

I uhh.. I don't mean on PS5. They can't take away my PS2 and PS1 games.

They can surely cancel my right to play My disc based PS4 and PS5 games but I can just disconnect my console from the Internet and keep playing those games.

I'm 37, I prefer disc based games and I only buy digital when it's at least 50% off or more.

Not to defend anybody involved here but the article does not say that the request has been fulfilled, only filed
