The investment aims to enrich the video platform's content that caters to the diverse tastes of animation fans, gamers, and merchants. Initially positioned as a playground for China's ACG (anime, comics, and games) community, Bilibili has been expanding its offerings to a wide range of categories, like fashion, lifestyle, beauty, music, and technology. Their ambition is to become a comprehensive and vibrant community for all kinds of users and video creators.ĭespite its more diversified business, Bilibili's games are still its largest revenue-generating sector, which accounted for 40% of the total revenue in 2020. However, the gaming sector showed flat growth over the past year, declining from 71% and 53% in 20.Īccording to Bilibili's financial report, its game sector generated total revenue of CNY1.13 billion in the fourth quarter of 2020, down 11.7% month-over-month.Īs one of the cash cows of Bilibili, slowing revenue growth of the gaming sector is not a good sign, especially for a loss-making company like Bilibili, which has been in the red for 13 consecutive quarters. ![]() Network presents a win-win situation Bilibili can promote its games through TapTap's distribution channels and attract X.D.

Network is a Hong Kong-listed online game developer/distributor, running 38 titles under its online community and distribution platform TapTap. Network's popular titles include Ragnarok Online Mobile: Eternal Love, Girls' Frontline, Sausage Man, and Muse Dash. Unlike traditional distributors such as application stores, Taptap doesn't charge a commission when the payment is made under the in-app purchase. It is not rare to see disputes between game developers and platform owners over revenue sharing. In January, Huawei has temporarily removed all Tencent games from its own app store after the two companies disagreed on revenue sharing. Huawei insisted on the original agreement for a revenue cut - a 50-50 arrangement for Tencent game sale on the Huawei app store, which Tencent can not agree on.įollowing the removal, Huawei users could not search Tencent games from the Huawei AppGallery, including some of its most popular titles such as Honour of King, Peacekeeper Elite, and Call of Duty Online. ![]() In September 2020, a similar conflict erupted between the game-maker MiHoyo, developer of the popular mobile game "Genshin Impact," and Huawei.

In the following list of prices for both products, I've rounded the pricing to the nearest whole U.S. At the end, I'll give a summary of the aspects of each that struck me as being unique or particularly positive for each editor.

Dolomite and magnesite are mined to the extent of 10 million tonnes per year, in countries such as China, Turkey, North Korea, Slovakia, Austria, Russia and Greece. The United States has traditionally been the major world supplier of this metal, supplying 45% of world production even as recently as 1995. It’s the third most abundant structural metal in the earth’s crust, only exceeded by aluminum and iron. It’s also found in seawater, underground brines and salty layers. It’s very abundant in nature, and it’s found in important quantities in many rocky minerals, like dolomite, magnetite, olivine and serpentine. Magnesium is the eighth most abundant element and constitutes about 2% af the Earth's crust by weight, and it is the third most plentiful element dissolved in seawater. Other uses include: removal of sulphur form iron and steel, photoengraved plates in the printing industry reducing agent for the production of pure uranium and other metals from their salts flashlight photography, flares, and pyrotechnics. Magnesium components are widely used in industry and agriculture. It also has many useful chemical and metallurgic properties, which make it appropriate for many other non-structural applications. With a density of only two thirds of the aluminum’s, it has countless applications in cases where weight reducing is important, i.e. Magnesium compounds are used as refractory material in furnace linings for producing metals (iron and steel, nonferrous metals), glass, and cement. The main ingredients of the alloys are: aluminum, manganese, zircon, zinc, rare-earth metals and thorium. It was used for a long time for synthesizing special and complex organic components by the well-known Grignard reaction. Used as a catalyst, magnesium promotes organic reactions of condensation, reduction, addition and dehalogenization. Magnesium reacts only slightly or not at all with most of the alkalis and many organic substances, like hydrocarbons, aldehides, alcohols, phenols, amines, esters and most of the oils. It joins together with most non-metals and almost every acid. Magnesium is very chemically active, it takes the place of hydrogen in boiling water and a great number of metals can be produced by thermic reduction of its salts and oxidized forms with magnesium. Magnesium is known for a long time as the lighter structural metal in the industry, due to it’s low weight and to it’s capability of forming mechanically resistant alloys. Its relative density is 1,74 and it’s density 1740 kg/m 3 (0.063 lb/in 3 or 108.6 lb/ft 3). Magnesium is silvery white and very light.

Being there for him, answering his phone calls when he was struggling and reminding him that he’s a unique, strong individual, has perhaps been one of the most rewarding parts of my life this past year. As an older gay, I tried to provide him with as much guidance and advice as possible. One such relationship is with a young man named Luke, who is set to graduate from college this spring.ĭuring the course of our now year-long friendship, Luke revealed to me that he is gay and was having trouble coming out to his parents and peers at school. I’ve met some of my closest friends on Fortnite. I’ve actually been legitimately scared by my interactions with people on Call of Duty. The difference between the way I’m treated on Fortnite and Call of Duty, particularly once my game-matched teammates discover I’m a woman, is truly staggering. But on the whole, there isn’t the same toxicity permeating every single part of the game.įor what it’s worth, I’ve played hundreds of hours of both Fortnite and Call of Duty over the past few years. Sure, as with any game, there are bad apples. A new type of communityīut Fortnite doesn’t have the same type of community. It’s not shocking, then, that the broader gaming community that tries to emulate them, especially the young men growing up in a world where e-sports are real, tend to do many of the same things. “You should kill yourself.” = Not fine at allīut many streamers and pro gamers make offensive jokes, talk shit about each other and rage when they lose. To be clear, there is a difference between talking about someone’s skills in the game and making a personal attack: Gaming culture has long had a reputation for being highly toxic. But something else is afoot on Fortnite that may be far more effectual. So “x is a place” is a fine observation, but it’s not a new phenomenon.Īlmost any popular game results in a community of players who connect not only through the common interest of the game itself, but as real friends who discuss their lives, thoughts, dreams, etc. I saw real romantic relationships begin, grow and die on there.

Waiters told customers which women were “charity girls” and which were professionals, and coached them on how to approach them. Now, the anti-vice investigations Keire follows no longer recorded negotiations between men and women but conversations between men about women. The vice crackdowns meant that women might be arrested for approaching strange men, so they depended on male go-betweens like waiters, bartenders, and doormen to make connections. This changed the power dynamic within drinking establishments. ![]() Sexually active women, whether they were selling sex or not, could be swept up in raids. “Often drunk, frequently profane, and almost always disreputable, the sporting women who socialized and solicited in saloons were visible, vocal players integral to urban nightlife,” Keire writes.Īnd then, during World War I, the government targeted “disease-spreading women” as a threat to the troops. ![]() Women approached men as often as the reverse, and were often quick to attack the sexual adequacy of men who turned down their advances. The vice investigations during this period show that men and women swapped vulgar, and often unisex, insults. They might also use the upstairs rooms for sex work and split their earnings with the saloon owner. Women often drank at a discount and might get a commission on drinks men bought. The women who went to the bars were understood to be part of the “sporting world,” falling somewhere on the spectrum from being open to casual encounters to straightforwardly selling sex. That didn’t mean that these were venues for dates. Most turn-of-the-century downtown saloons had “family rooms” or “wine rooms” where women worked as bartenders and drank alongside men. ![]() |
