@AskPlayStation Please provide a much more detailed rundown of what happened, whether our data was exposed, and what steps you're taking to prevent a repeat. This level of communication is unacceptable.
PSN has been restored. You should be able to access online features without any problems now. For more details: status.playstation.com
Sorry for the inconvenience!
@ServicesGovAU Neither the call centre nor service centre have the scope to address this engineering issue of having a 6 month outage. In addition, they are the subject of national enquiries for their chronic inaccessibility to customers. This policy is punitive and discriminatory.
@ServicesGovAU I already told you I am not available for such a phone call, and there is no reason for one. The web site lays out methods of contact, and I chose text, here. Can you please continue to process this, instead of asking me to start over for a third time with no reason given?
@ServicesGovAU Can you please put me in touch with some kind of tech support email address, or similar? That's how these things are conventionally done
@ServicesGovAU Yes, I have confirmed that. It will need to be escalated to engineering, because a service outage condition shouldn't be possible to raise from my end at all, ever.
@ServicesGovAU Medicare Android app, 3 seconds after successful PIN, always says "Login failed. Service not available. Please try again later." and kicks me out. Tried reinstall, 2 phones, 2 telcos, since October.
@ServicesGovAU Got a call today that was probably you but it sounded like a scam. How can I actually contact you? I've been locked out of the app for 6 months, and the contact page literally says to try social media????
Gaza YMCA around Christmas & New Year
December 2022 vs December 2023
I want to show everyone this tiny part of how Gaza City looked before it became rubble, because this is one of the most dramatic examples of how inaccurately people imagine Gaza was before it was destroyed.
@CactusVRStudios We leverage our own proprietary data model, so you can appreciate that we won’t go into a lot of detail, but we believe it gives an accurate determination of the number of times the runtime is distributed for a given project.
Today we announced a change to our business model which includes new additions to our subscription plans, and the introduction of a Runtime fee. We wanted to provide clarifying answers to the top questions most of you are asking.
Yes, this is a price increase and it will only affect a small subset of current Unity Editor users.
Today, a large majority of Unity Editor users are currently not paying anything and will not be affected by this change. The Unity Runtime fee will not impact the majority of our developers.
The developers who will be impacted are generally those who have successful games and are generating revenue way above the thresholds we outlined in our blog. This means that developers who are still building their business and growing the audience of their games will not pay a fee. The program was designed specifically this way to ensure developers could find success before the install fee takes effect.
We want to be clear that the counter for Unity Runtime fee installs starts on January 1, 2024 - it is not retroactive or perpetual. We will charge once for a new install; not an ongoing perpetual license royalty, like revenue share.
We looked for ways to lessen the impact on developers, and provide ways to bring the Runtime fee to zero. If you’re using any of our ad products, Unity Gaming Services or cloud services, etc. please contact us to discuss discounts.
We are actively listening to and following your questions closely. Please review our FAQ (on.unity.com/3PAiqHH) on today’s announcement. We also invite you to continue to discuss these changes with us on our forums: on.unity.com/3RmyLRx.
Hey Garry! 👋
A lot of questions here and we’ll do our best to get each answered but first, we want to say we have heard the concern from the indie community loud and clear and are working to clear up confusion:
- On an annual basis, we evaluate and adjust pricing across our product portfolio
- We have a proprietary data model that calculates the number of times the runtime is distributed for a given project
- If a user can access a full game (e.g. via an in-game upgrade or purchase), then installs count toward the fee. If a user can't access the full game (e.g. only one level is offered) then that demo would be considered a separate package and not count toward the fee. In addition, we don’t intend to capture or count installs for QA testing
- We are happy to work with any developer who has been the victim of piracy so that they are not unfairly hurt by unwanted installs

@unity Actually it affects the entire industry because your whole engine is now non-viable because you've destroyed hundreds of thousands of hours of labour built on trusting you
@michaelje@hierobadge Because it's not simple at all; tenants face huge costs and risks as severe as homelessness and losing their pets. At worst landlords face a short pause in the windfall from the rigged game.
@hierobadge Why would you ask for a review? If it was too high and above market value, you would simply move to another rental. How about you buy your own housem
@ronInBendigo@ChrisLawsonHood@AlanKohler Ah, the inevitable sound of goalposts shifting, and all you need is a woke conspiracy to blame for the facts you don't like
Quite surprised at the amount of poo being sprayed in my direction for saying climate change is an emergency. I thought we'd all moved on from denying it now, but apparently not.
@MRBK51@wattlecosmos@johnsy123aus@happyoda Presumably he paid taxes for 50 years. We were supposed to get a safety net in return, but the ultra-wealthy (owning the media) convinced us to spend it all on tax cuts & royalty exemptions for them. Why keep supporting them?
@wattlecosmos@johnsy123aus@happyoda Sometimes, just sometimes you can do everything right and shit doesn’t work out….but that is ZERO excuse to blame other people & call them tight arses simply because you expect they should do what you want them to.
Does getting bent out of shape over 10c make you feel better?
I’m a taxi driver in a coal community, so I drive these coal miners to their buses to go to their jobs, they earn 120k a year I earn $25k a year, and they wait until I give them their last 0.10 cents in change , I resent this
