🧵 More concerns
Future exclusives? "interest from other studios" disastrous for the competitive market
Apex Hosting (acq. @Nitrado_EN) as "option", deceptive idea
No Linux server files? Likely a ploy to funnel users to them

2. The idea to offer Apex Hosting (acquired by Nitrado) as an alternative, only underscores their manipulative tactics.
"We should consider having ASA marketed by Apex Hosting as well. [...]"
It's deceptive. Essentially donning a disguise to lure in consumers.
We got anonymous access to DRM-free Windows server files! 🎉
But, no Linux server files & the egregious overreaching monopolistic exclusivity deal with @Nitrado_EN still stands. If unchecked, this sets a dangerous precedent

Good job everyone in fighting for what we should have had, and getting it back last night. That said, the fight for #ARKSurvivalAscended is not over. Not even close.

Watch this video, share this video. Neddy is talking facts here.
I am utterly disgusted by this decision that has tarnished the reputation of #ARKSurvivalAscended and #playARK before the remaster even got its feet off the ground...

Sorry, but exclusivities... AKA monopolies, are never good for the economy as a whole. Shame on WildCard, Snail, and Nitrado for this. You've lost my business and my respect with this announcement.

🎮 Prepare for a legendary ARK multiplayer experience! 🌟
We’re excited to announce a groundbreaking Partnership with Studio Wildcard, unleashing new possibilities for ARK multiplayer server hosting. 🦖Learn more in our latest blog: nitra.do/arkpartnership
@NeddyTheNoodle is spot on, though I'd expand on his requirements. Reversing decisions on personal/cloud hosting is a great start; but not enough. There is also a great importance in having a fair, competitive, and thriving marketplace - monopolies suck.

Sorry, not sorry... but I won't be buying #GTA6 from @RockstarGames if they don't make more of an effort to stop hackers from ruining the game. Every #GTAOnline session I join has hackers and money spam bots within 10m. Unacceptable.

A bad employee can bring down an entire team.
I worked with a person who just stopped showing up. Didn't attend meetings, did basically no work. And honestly, it was a relief…
They were so toxic and had such a net negative effect that their absence HELPED not hindered the team

Really interesting to read about someone "born into" a JavaScript stack discovering the productivity that a conventional full-stack framework like Rails or Laravel offers.
“Having tried it I can say wow - coming from the current Javascript ecosystem makes discovering Rails a revelation. Building the web app in Rails took me 2 days – the same thing in Node would have taken 2 weeks.” nikodunk.com/a-node-js-devel…

Our investigation is ongoing, and we are in the process of analyzing all of the relevant logs and data to assess actual impact. For an update see blog.twitch.tv/2021/10/06/up…
They didn't release personally identifiable information but odds are they are in possession of it... so please, change your password on Twitch (and anywhere else you use the same password)...
Also, be sure to enable 2FA!
more on the Twitch leak / hack. It appears the leaker has taken some time to ensure personal account information is not in this leak, and has focused on tools, SDKs, and code that affects Twitch itself. A source familiar with Twitch's tools confirms theverge.com/2021/10/6/22712…
