It’s sustainable at $1/month at current costs, but those costs will go up over time. The subscription price could be raised accordingly but they can’t go back and ask for an inflation adjustment from people who bought…
Per your link, Sony will soon be disallowing new purchases, but has not set a date for disallowing downloads of existing purchases.
Amazon may not be going away tomorrow, but they have form for disallowing redownloads of old ebook purchases. If you dared to buy ebooks from them pre-Kindle, you can't access them anymore. If you hold onto your Kindle…
Only additional third-party DRM is listed there, not Steam's own DRM.
Until Steam starts telling me before I buy which games have their DRM and which doesn't, they belong in the same category as Sony and Microsoft.
Just as you can download old games on Steam for now. Either will pull the plug whenever they want.
Sony wouldn’t see any benefit from switching to game key discs. Nintendo introduced them to save on manufacturing costs, but game key discs wouldn’t give Sony any additional market or reduce costs any; they’d only…
You can still download games for PS3 and Vita after they stop selling them. It’s no different from how Steam no longer sells some titles it used to.
Or they’ll just stop “selling” copies in those territories and only allow short-term rentals or monthly subscription services.
Don’t jurisdictions generally offer ID cards for non-drivers that are functionally equivalent for ID purposes, you just can’t drive?
Some people don’t want to carry two devices and prefer BYOD, even if the company offers a work phone.
Wait, I thought one project = one assembly, so you would never have "types in assemblies in the same project which the current assembly depends on". Should that be same solution instead of same project?
It seems trivially simple until you have two dependencies with conflicting exact version requirements... So I don't think you can get rid of floating versions entirely. They did add NPM-style lockfiles for…
But just the dependency list isn't sufficient to pick a specific version, thanks to dependency ranges. If Package A depends on Package B >= 1.0, and Package B has v1.0 and v1.1 available, it will use v1.0. But if…
NuGet is lock-by-default for the parent package, but with the move from packages.config to <PackageReference> it's no longer lock-by-default for dependencies.
Could be worse. It’s finally gone now but I believe that my employer used VS6 as late as 2025.
It’s the opposite - if a 12-year-old thinks it’s cool it probably needs a rethink.
Amazon.jp does ship everywhere, but their international items use a separate warehouse, and sometimes items are only stocked in the domestic one(s) and are unavailable for international shipping.

That makes sense. Thanks for explaining!
Why not leave your functions but have them invoke the libraries instead?
But there is no such thing as a “genuine” $30 bill.
It's impossible to know which Steam games are DRM-free since Steam games without DRM are not marked in the store. They have to all be assumed to have DRM.
I know we used to use them in our corporate environment. Not sure if we still do, or if they gave up and called OneDrive “good enough”.
They also still don't have ASP.NET Core support for SQL Server Reporting Services - you're stuck in ASP.NET Web Forms land if you want to embed reports in your app.
