- Comment on Microsoft formally deprecates the 39-year-old Windows Control Panel 2 months ago:
Classic Microsoft move to implement something new, then not let go of the old thing and run them jankily side by side. Settings / Control panel is a prime example.
And at work its janky crossovers between Active Directory and Azure/Intune/Entra/other dumb names.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
I vaguely remember seeing a large album and thinking in lots of them the cigarette stuff looked edited in at the time. No article attached then either.

Pants weren’t even invented yet
- Comment on 'We don't have shareholders, but we also don't think about them,' Larian Studios uses its stage time at the DICE Awards to speak out against a brutal industry climate 8 months ago:
Valve are major players in Linux being a viable option for gaming and actively fighting the Microsoft monopoly for PC gaming. Not in line with other players in the industry.
They are actively developing proton as well as their own controller support for any games within their platform.
What is the rest of the industry doing in line with this?
- Comment on Disco Elysium standalone expansion reportedly cancelled and quarter of staff facing redundancy at ZA/UM 8 months ago:
I sympathise with them, but played it without any insight into any drama. It’s one of the best games I’ve played.
- Comment on Windows 11 24H2 goes from “unsupported” to “unbootable” on some older PCs 9 months ago:
I’ll be sure to inform my whole company and I am sure they will be on board
- Comment on Canada declares Flipper Zero public enemy No. 1 in car-theft crackdown 9 months ago:
I guess it could steal maybe some 90s cars with remote fobs, but I don’t think it can do modern keyless entry cars in any useful way.
- Comment on "tHeRe'$ n0 rEpL@CeMeNt FoR dIsPlaCeMeNt!!!1!!!1!!“ 9 months ago:
I hate the mentality of the people who spew that bullshit, but I also don’t like the idea of thinking you are a planet saving warrior for driving a brand new SUV.
- Comment on "tHeRe'$ n0 rEpL@CeMeNt FoR dIsPlaCeMeNt!!!1!!!1!!“ 9 months ago:
Both platforms have problems, thinking anything else is being a part of the problem.
- Comment on "tHeRe'$ n0 rEpL@CeMeNt FoR dIsPlaCeMeNt!!!1!!!1!!“ 9 months ago:
And the truth is somewhere in the middle
- Comment on Ehat are the legal implications of this? 9 months ago:
Free in Sweden
- Comment on Downfall (Steam Standalone) was Breached. Please read. 10 months ago:
It is a sweet game though. I play the Android version all the time.
- Comment on [Steam] Which lesser known games have you bought or are planning to buy in this sale? 10 months ago:
Super Woden GP 2 looks really interesting and I never heard of it. Going on the wishlist.
- Comment on How many of you actually use the headphone jack on your phone? 11 months ago:
I want it mostly for aux in various cars. Also neat to plug into PC speakers and such.
I’d pass up on fingerprint scanner and nfc before the jack tbh.
- Comment on Game devs should follow the BG3 development footprint 11 months ago:
It’s under a different studio than the original. The original devs are releasing a new DLC for Grim Dawn, though.
- Comment on Homes need to be built for better internet 11 months ago:
I didn’t bother reading it all but seems like the writer is mostly complaining about their personal tech issues and blaming their house, which seems to have an almost ideal setup for building a good network.
Overlooking that is very possible, but I guess I expected more, isn’t The Verge a tech site?
- Comment on Will Microsoft drop the TPM requirement for Win 11 once Win 12 rolls around? 11 months ago:
I have had no issues either, but setting a PC up for my little sister I quickly realized that for her it was a lot different. Games like Fortnite, Rainbow Six Siege and Valorant do not run.
- Comment on Would you prefer if games had a separate difficulty setting for boss fights? 1 year ago:
I mean this has been in games for a long time between the 90s and 00s and has always been called literally cheat codes
- Comment on America is so great we privatized taxes 1 year ago:
You pay more per week in case you have a medical emergency than I pay per year for literal medical emergencies. You pay more in a month for just having insurance than I paid for a 10 day hospital stay, completely uninsured.
- Comment on Think anyone would notice? 1 year ago:
Sweden here we only get 5 weeks vacay. 480 days parental leave though.
- Comment on Windows 12 May Require a Subscription 1 year ago:
I think the general consumer mostly uses the web browser tbh.
- Comment on Grand Theft Auto 5 turns 10 years old 1 year ago:
I mean real damage, spinning out, hitting a curb actually feeling like hitting a curb and overall feel. Gta V has too much grip and you can easily just take a sports car up a mountain offroad. It’s soulless.
- Comment on Grand Theft Auto 5 turns 10 years old 1 year ago:
I really love the world of GTA V, it has a lot to explore and is beautiful. I just wish the driving physics to explore it weren’t so utterly boring. GTA IV had great arcade driving.
- Comment on Mullvad slowing down internet 1 year ago:
In my experience Mullvad is a blazing fast VPN, to me this seems like something else. I never had less than 500mbit speeds using it.
- Comment on Are smart door locks more or less secure than traditional door locks? 1 year ago:
Trying to think through all doors of all places I have lived personally and I can not remember a single inward opening door in a house, cottage or apartment. I could very well be wrong but nothing comes to mind.
- Comment on Does there exist a factory game or zachlike that's like this?: 1 year ago:
Seems interesting shame there’s no paid bon freemium version, though.
