- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 19 hours ago:
It’s an fantastic game, as other have already told you. But I’d like to add that there’s a randomizer for it and this basically adds almost infinite replay value (at least for me!)
- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 19 hours ago:
It’s a little old and more Metroid- than -vania: A Robot Named Fight
- Comment on Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash — "the fact that people are unimpressed ... is mindblowing to me" 20 hours ago:
People booing something they dislike is hardly news. We’re still talking about that seven years later because of the dumb and out-of-touch reaction of the Blizzard employee. “Don’t you guys have phones”?

I couldn’t tell, the last Windows I did use for more than 20 minutes was win2k, and that was more than 20 years ago

AI features are ruining your product and its image
Microsoft going down in flames is a boon to the world.

I think that the crowd’s reaction was more about broken expectations. Everyone there was waiting for the Diablo IV announcement but instead they were offered a mobile game.

Either just remove the slop and telemetry
…then remember to do that again and again, every time Windows installs a new update

well, that’s a rock worth living under
- Comment on Our first look at the Steam Machine, Valve’s ambitious new game console 1 week ago:
even though Xbox figured out asymmetric was better back in 2001
MS did the asymmetric layout to avoid patents that existed on previous Sony controllers… they weren’t trying to innovate or anything like that
- Comment on Our first look at the Steam Machine, Valve’s ambitious new game console 1 week ago:
There is something else you forgot, Steam has a library with thousands of games. More games than most console’s entire libraries combined.
- Comment on Gamepad for Linux Gaming? 1 week ago:
I’ve got it working but, unfortunately, when wireless the controller has unacceptable input lag. Might be something interfering with the bluetooth signal, I don’t know.

I’ve seen someone who took that username here in Lemmy, but that could be anyone, no guarantee that it was the same guy/gal on reddit
- Comment on Gamepad for Linux Gaming? 1 week ago:
The regular PS4 controller works fine. Works well in steam, lutris, retroarch and the few native games I own, never had any (unsolvable) problems with it.

why not both? :)
- Comment on MPV: The Ultimate Self-Hosted Media Solution You're Probably Sleeping On 1 week ago:
It’s even worse when your remote is covered with buttons to Netflix, YouTube, Prime and other random bullshit streaming services. I physically removed two rows of buttons from the remote of the TV I bought last year, after accidentally pushing some of them too many times
- Comment on Elon Musk says Optimus will 'eliminate poverty' in speech after his $1 trillion pay package was approved 1 week ago:
if by “sacrifice” you mean “forfeit all their assets and distribute them equally” your plan might have some merit
- Comment on Palantir CEO Says a Surveillance State Is Preferable to China Winning the AI Race 1 week ago:
he calls for a « collectivist » ideology and the merger of corporation and state
Collectivism my ass, neither he nor any of his fellow billionaires will ever relinquish ownership of their companies. They simply want to also own the state and rule like feudal lords.
- Comment on Controversial startup's plan to 'sell sunlight' using giant mirrors in space would be 'catastrophic' and 'horrifying,' astronomers warn 2 weeks ago:

- Comment on OpenAI signs $38 billion compute deal with Amazon, partnering with cloud leader for first time 2 weeks ago:
There is no way out of this by way of revenue

not OP, but I guess that’s futureproofing, 128GB RAM should be more than enough for a long time
- Comment on The Authoritarian Stack 2 weeks ago:
Amen, brother. But, unfortunately, most people around here finds it easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism.
