  • I refuse to comprehend why an admin override style panel is even needed for this. It’s one thing if its owned by the dealer, but if you have the title to your car, its unnecessary for your employees to need access to every customers vehicle past purchase. Once it’s been handed over, there is zero reason for a remote employee to be able to access your car remotely, paying for a service or not.

    This isn’t a third party gaining access to a customers account, this is a third party gaining access to a Subaru employees account, who for some reason can access an “admin panel” that has every Subaru car in it and the ability to remote control it. That’s insane.









  • For myself, I love the fact that it’s clear that it’s not an actual game controller, however you can tell it is meant to be. This gives the first glance look at a community that is gaming related without defaulting to a specific platform.

    I would say that if the game controller icon gets changed it should keep that individuality, meaning that I wouldn’t recommend it become a picture of an actual controller or a diagram depicting an actual controller




  • All of this falls in dead waters as soon as people realize, Bytedance has already let tiktok die in the states once due to it’s refusal to sell under the ruling. I don’t see how them learning that the US government and a third party /also/ want to buy it will change anything. I think the outcome will be the same.

    Bytedance has made it clear, they would rather have the app offline in the states and leave it online for the rest of the world, then to lose their product, and even if they wanted to sell, which they have currently stated they don’t, that type of deal would need to be OK’d by the Chinese government first, and there’s no way that would happen with a third party, let alone if it means the US government would get half the company.

    I respect Trumps hustle for wanting to give one of the worlds largest social media platforms onto American Soil(more explicitly/likely one of his advisors/business partners), but I really don’t think it’s going to work.




  • To be honest, they could launch the game as a 1 MB file that brings you to a black screen that says get fucked, and they would still make their money’s worth just out of the people who will blindly buy the game because they’ve been waiting for GTA 6 for so long that they bought it release day.

    And then they could just move back to GTA V pretending nothing happened because the same people that would have impulse purchased GTA 6 with zero research are also the people who play GTA V religiously spending money on the micro transactions there and that isn’t going to cut their addiction
