- Comment on Xbox’s leadership shift proves it: the gamer era is over, AI runs the show now 12 hours ago:
Yeah, the situation is largely the same as when everyone was convinced xbow wouod quit making consoles (or worse with hardware prices now).
Cant see how this can go well.

Winning every year since the launch of the ps1.
- Comment on I say kill 'em all. 1 day ago:
Im not loving a plan where i get bitten twice in a few hours.
Instead of going outside and rubbing plants on me ill stay inside and fill the air with poison.
- Comment on British inflation hits lowest in almost a year 3 days ago:
Going in the right direction does not mean its good.
When people hear “good news” about inflation they expect prices to be stable*, and they just arent yet.
*or go back to how they were, which is a problem the boe alone cant be expected to educate on.
- Comment on British inflation hits lowest in almost a year 4 days ago:
Its 3% or so. No it isnt good.
- Comment on Fighting games have a product design problem 1 week ago:
As an outsider the reason i domt bother with these is you have to know every damn iframe and move flow timing perfectly to even know what the game is.
Theres one point in this article about a practice mode thats totally wrong.
Then later one saying single player should teach you this stuff. This is right.Reimagining these games as a 2d souls like would be incredible. But then, those games have loot and xp to soften the harsh reality of the skill ceiling. Would fighting games lovers accept that? I think no.
- Comment on Windows 10's extended support ends in eight months, but users are still rejecting Windows 11, at least in Germany 3 weeks ago:
Dynamic resorting lists are awful.
I dont use macs, havent for years, but its genuinely sad their ui has fallen to that low.
- Comment on Starmer pulls Chagos bill after Trump backlash 4 weeks ago:
I have a suspicion trump hates this entirely because it was planned by biden originally.
He being mad about free land makes even less sense than he usually does.

I suppose it would matter if i wrote anything down by hand in the last ten years
- Comment on Cloudflare defies Italy’s Piracy Shield, won’t block websites on 1.1.1.1 DNS 1 month ago:
Seems fairly plausible that they cant change 1.1.1.1 behaviour per country.
At least, not readonably. Dns is the one place where people spend a lot of effort saving microseconds (and less) on each look up.

Amazing this is so downvoted.
It is literally impossible to discuss free speech online, and has been for decades, due to a tsunami of americans thinking their specific law is the only position possible and flooding all debate with smug explanations of how it actually works, actually.
- Comment on Microsoft wants to replace its entire C and C++ codebase, perhaps by 2030 1 month ago:
Somebody got yelled at
- Comment on How VPNs really work: Protocols, safety and myth - Sentient Rant 1 month ago:
Ill always use a vpn as theres no other way to stop advertisers seeing your local host ip.
Its not sufficient to stop them tracking, by miles, but its necessary.

Pls, technology?
Climate change and a war against china are the two triggers.
- Comment on Oracle made a $300 billion bet on OpenAI. It's paying the price. 2 months ago:
It’s the people who chose solaris before the purchase i feel sorry for.
- Comment on Oracle made a $300 billion bet on OpenAI. It's paying the price. 2 months ago:
I understand why people keep using oracle, but i have never understood why anyone starts.

Reading this my mind immediately went to hitler banning fraktur.
Because there was a great post about it on mastodon a few days ago not because im clever.
- Comment on Great British Railways flies the flag as logo goes back to the future 2 months ago:
We already know what country we’re in.
Whats it communicating? State ownership?
Any idiot can use the union jack in a logo. And they do.
I dont entirely hate it and theres an argument the state should make the flag mean something by using it. I just dont think they can.
Any trust and brand awareness they build up can be undermined immediately by someone using almost identical branding to sell soggy cardboard sandwiches outsude the station.
- Comment on Controversial horror game Horses is the top-selling new game on GOG even as it gets kicked off the Humble Store one day after launch 2 months ago:
The steam ban was ages ago, the news was recent. They decided to go loud about the steam ban as they released, its clearly pr. I dont think they got banned intentionally but the differwnce is a little academic when you cry this loudly about it.

Guess what fuckers, they dont want to be there any more than you want them there. Fix the gp system and it’ll all magically disappear.
Shocking no one wants to try and have a conversation about their health by shouting over the counter to a pharmacist in a packed shop as they vaguely listen with one ear while packing medication.
- Comment on Last Epoch players turn on the action RPG for announcing a paid DLC class, tanking its Steam reviews: 'go play Path of Exile instead' 2 months ago:
I guess they made the promise to compete with poe but eventually found out why it is so hard to make work.
Still, interesting explanations from everyone. thanks

But grim dawn has classes in the dlc expa sions 🤔

I have played Vintage Story and moose are the apex predator for me. Ill fight any number of horrifying eldritch rot rust monsters from another dimension before i go near a moose.
- Comment on Uh oh: Ubisoft postpones its quarterly financial report at the last minute and halts stock trading 3 months ago:
Right, If the truth is theyre barely afloat theyre not going to change anything by delaying the report. The time its reporting has passed.
- Comment on Uh oh: Ubisoft postpones its quarterly financial report at the last minute and halts stock trading 3 months ago:
A lot of very confused people here who think an earnings delay means ubi havent made much money. Cant say if they have or not, but if they havent thats still not a reason for this kind of delay

You have to use special deals for dominos. Its competitive then. They have standard ones on all the time.

Finally someone who admits it, had far too many people try to say boomer shooters are named after shotguns.
Dont expect us slightly elderly gamers to call our precious childhood games by the name of a group that fucked us all over first.
