The trailer for the new borderlands looked like the most soulless, boring cash grab. Anyone put much time into it yet?

- Comment on A Deadly Love Affair with a Chatbot. Sewell Setzer was a happy child - before he fell in love with an AI chatbot and took his own life at 14. 5 weeks ago:
this headline is disingenuous. There are so many other things going on here:
- step dad and 2 much younger siblings. This kid was probably stressed out with new younger half sibs needing a lot of attention
- gun without a lock stored with ammo in an accessible place
- florida
- Christian prep school. Those kids either believe anything is real or are so hopelessly depressed they get into drugs
- parents are both lawyers. Talk about a high stress time consuming job that probably leaves little time for the three kids
But nah, it was just a chat bot that made a totally normal kid with no other risk factors off himself. They’re probably dying by the thousand right now right?

Thanks!!
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 5 weeks ago:
Yeah I’m familiar with server- I was asking if you were using official client apps or third party.
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 5 weeks ago:
Is it called “jellyfin” like the server or is it another app?
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 5 weeks ago:
Jellyfin have native apps that are any good? I use plex heavily on ps5, appleTV, iOS, and people’s random star TVs, all of which have really good first class apps. I also support users that are not technically inclined, so they would need to be able to just install and app and log in.

No- is it like a grunt?
- Comment on Are PC handhelds like Steam Deck really competitors for Switch 2? 1 month ago:
I really doubt switch 2 games will emulate at all or well for quite some time.
I get the money argument. In that case, get the one that does more for you now now, and save up for the other one later. You don’t need them all at once.
I waited a year before getting the first switch, and almost 2 years for a ps4. I think I waited at least a year for all the other PlayStations too save the 5.
Getting something at launch isn’t all that great- bugs, limited games, max prices, etc… a year or so later and you get bundles and deals and lots of game choices.
I don’t have a deck- but a few of my friends do and I’ve played with it a bit- it’s great and I want one at some point, but I can wait for #2 to come out and then go on sale before I dive in.

Oooh! Two “disruptive”’s and a “game changer”!
- Comment on Are PC handhelds like Steam Deck really competitors for Switch 2? 1 month ago:
I really truly don’t think so. While there is some overlap, I would never give my 5 yo a steam deck and tell them to just figure it out. And on a steam deck, I’d be really sad to not have any Mario kart, Zelda, etc…
I don’t see the problem with having both- they fill different niches.

- Comment on Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do? 2 months ago:
My understanding is that only some games are a “key in a cartridge” and they are able to be resold second hand.

- Comment on What if Apple / other brands sold desktop chips? 2 months ago:
Yeah, from apple’s perspective it cheapens their brand and makes them just another commodity parts supplier. Plus, used outside of their ecosystem, the cups might not shine the way they do on their managed platform which could tarnish the image too. Plus, it kills some of the competitive edge they have on hardware if anyone could slap something together with the same chips.
I suspect keeping their chips and tech to themselves is vital to their strategy.
- Comment on What if Apple / other brands sold desktop chips? 2 months ago:
You mean as stand alone parts for purchase?
Because Apple does have m series chips in desktop configurations already- the Mac Studio and iMac.

- Comment on Minecraft's 'Vibrant Visuals' Upgrade the Start of a New 'Graphical Journey' 2 months ago:
I feel like all this visual upgrading kinda missed the point of Minecraft. It’s like colorizing black and white movies.

Too late to explore the world with on a ship, too soon to explore space, just the right time to finance fucking door dash.
- Comment on Why can’t HVAC be made smarter? 2 months ago:
My thermostat has a hot and cold setting that will heat when cold and cool when hot- I can also set it to a mode based on outside temp or time of day. You might just need a smarter thermostat.
