• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I played through and 100%'d Silksong entirely on Linux. The only issue I had was that the native Linux version had buggy controller support causing phantom inputs, and didn’t activate rumble at all (like the original Hollow Knight).

  I normally play everything through Proton-GE by default and didn’t realize the game was initially installed as native. Forcing GE installed the Windows version and it was flawless all through the final boss.

  (In short, definitely a skill issue)

  I wonder how this compares to Mañolo’s HadesVR/PersephoneVR setup… I think they have 6DoF and use lights embedded in golf balls to act as PS Move sensors

  Just so nobody else is confused, Canadian carrier phones legally have to be sold unlocked as of 2017

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Deal to get ChatGPT Plus for whole of UK discussed by Open AI boss and minister⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess the only way they could make it profitable was to trick an entire country into a subscription while that country is still convinced it isn’t useless

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨4chan refuses to pay UK Online Safety Act fines, asks Trump admin to intervene⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re already everywhere, they just happen to also spend time using 4chan sometimes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Report: Microsoft's latest Windows 11 24H2 update breaks SSDs/HDDs, may corrupt your data⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Then I guess they don’t exist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gamers Bombard Visa & MasterCard With Emails and Calls Over Steam and itch.io Censorship⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m against the censorship, to be clear, but a David Cage game might not be the best example to use in the future lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk's X temporarily down for tens of thousands of users⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “But I only use twitter for ‘art’”, or “I just follow a few small communities” are the usual excuses these days.

  I hear the same excuses as I did for Reddit, only I’d consider Twitter usage considerably less defensible :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. inks bill to force geo-tracking tech for high-end gaming and AI GPUs⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Unless, of course, they’re in all the GPUs that people want.

  …It’s unfortunately more likely that the majority of people won’t notice or care, though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI Could Be the Most Effective Tool for Dismantling Democracy Ever Invented⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re giving real “why couldn’t they just protest peacefully (after years of peaceful protest with no results)” energy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X (Twitter) is down in worldwide outage.⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I dunno about going down entirely, but bits and pieces (like SMS verification) definitely broke while they were undoing work and cutting “expenses” (like office leases)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Robot with 1,000 muscles twitches like human while dangling from ceiling⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re asking why it’s “standard litres per minute”, instead of just “litres per minute”
