could offer “in-air” gestures
I can’t wait for stories of people brushing their hair away and the earbuds take that as a sign to raise the volume too high or something equally dumb to happen because they won’t be able to differentiate between a normal gesture meant for it and something not meant for it.
Gesture controls are cool, but what happens if they are too sensitive to movement or think gesture xyz is the same as gesture zyx?
- Comment on Are there any good casual/low-stress mobile games that aren't filled with microtransactions? 6 hours ago:
I don’t think there’s any meta progression as far as I’m aware, but I find Shattered Pixel Dungeon (available on both android and ios) to be a low stress enough game. I suck at it, so I’ve never gotten much further than the first boss fight, but the game is about running through randomly generated dungeons, going down floor by floor as one of 4 different characters.
- Comment on Minecraft Is Being Ported To Dreamcast And GameCube | Time Extension 14 hours ago:
Depending on how big the game is, I will definitely have to buy some CDs and burn the game to play it on my Dreamcast. Otherwise it’s going straight to an emulator.
- Comment on Are there any games you're planning to pick up during the Steam and GOG sales? 1 day ago:
Last night for $4.99 and $2.99 I got Worms W.M.D. and Worms Armageddon on Steam since I haven’t played any worms games outside of Worms 2: Armageddon on xbox360.
Tried Armageddon last night and it was pretty fun. Only gripe I have with it is that I had to plug in a mouse and keyboard to my deck dock.
Have yet to try W.M.D. yet and don’t know if it has an offline singleplayer player vs computer mode, but I’ve seen enough videos of people playing it for me to think I’d have a good time playing it.
- Comment on The Steam Summer Sale is live now! 3 days ago:
I don’t know how must have it is, but I’ve been enjoying Isles of Sea and Sky, a sokoban type puzzle game currently 10% off until July 11th (currently $17.99).
- Comment on Mozilla roll out first AI features in Firefox Nightly 5 days ago:
The way I see AI being implemented into Firefox, regardless of whether it’s gonna be opt-in or out in the future is that they need to keep up with the latest browser trends in the future. If they don’t, they will definitely lose more of whatever probably small amount of remaining normies who don’t use edge or chrome but instead opt for Firefox. They’re not tech literate enough to see a conveniently placed ad telling them that xyz browser now uses AI security features and Firefox doesn’t and discern the fact that it’s a ploy to get them to switch. We need more normies if we really want a chance to keep Firefox more than just treadingn water, and the best way is to offer more random bullshit of the week to keep them from switching to a competitor.
- Comment on Google's AI Overviews now link to Wikipedia and LinkedIn more than Reddit, study finds 1 week ago:
Well, here’s the part where I hope people are able to make a Wikipedia alternative so we can turn Wikipedia into a cesspool to ensure the enshitification of gøøg|e. That, and if I ever get a Wikipedia article made about me (which will probably never happen), I’m signing up with an account and absolutely trashing it to say things that will cause whatever any AI looking at it to spout the most absurd shit.
- Comment on Images leak of Valve's next game, and it's an Overwatch-style hero shooter 1 month ago:
At this point, we have some absolutely impressive Portal 2 mods that, in my opinion, definitely make up for not having Portal 3. We’ve got Tag (the paint gun mod), Thinking With Portals (a short one that gives you the ability to create a clone thing that copies recorded actions), and I’ve been playing through one I just found out about called Revolution that is pretty cool so far.
I personally like to think that the fans have done a good enough job at creating mods and maps that a Portal 3 would be redundant.
- Comment on Google's call-scanning AI could dial up censorship by default, privacy experts warn 1 month ago:
I can imagine that in the worst case scenario, company xyz pays millions to gøøgle to have its phone call scamming AI look out for anything that could be taken as even the most mild criticism and cut off your call. That, or the AI randomly cuts out the call because it hallucinates you saying bad things.
- Comment on BBC thinks we might as well get comfortable, fellow Zoomers. 1 month ago:
I know a way to make it feel comfortable, but it’s so much harder nowadays to get away with murder and drugging people to death.
- Comment on Google now offers ‘web’ search — and an AI opt-out button 1 month ago:
How long until they kill this product because they see that they could potentially make even a penny more per user by shoving AI down your throat completely?
- Comment on „If companies were to do the right thing, they would lose the most valuable customers on earth, preteen kids” 1 month ago:
From what I understand, it’s a platform where you can create games and monetize them by doing things like adding subscriptions, item or ability shops, add access fees, etcetera, that require real world money to be exchanged for them. Though, I think it could also be robux, but I wouldn’t know because I avoid that service like the plague.
There’s a whole entire webpage dedicated to this monetization thing that’s out in the open, if you wanna read it.
- Comment on party poopers 1 month ago:
Jesus! The worst I ever had was in 9th grade biology I accidentally broke a couple test tubes. I couldn’t imagine burning or cutting myself by accident or having a near death experience. 4th period would be my type of class because I wouldn’t feel comfortable at all anywhere near the other periods if they’re all getting injured.
- Comment on Possible snipers seen at OSU. Administration says they're not snipers but should be treated like they are. 2 months ago:
Can’t wait for a headline about them accidentally shooting an innocent person and then admin goes on the defensive, claiming that the snipers were only doing their job. That, or hush the grieving family by either paying them to shut up or flat out erase them by buying off the police.
- Comment on ByteDance prefers TikTok shutdown in US if legal options fail, sources say 2 months ago:
Well, as someone I watch online pretty much said, this could lead to other countries banning it if they don’t sell (as to whether that actually happens, I can’t say since I’m nowhere near qualified enough to make that call). I have my own reasons for hoping for a ban outside of wanting most short form content being banned because of attention span draining brain rot, but this is definitely shaping up to be an interesting development.
- Comment on Can an online library of classic video games ever be legal? 2 months ago:
Because there’s a chance Sintendo will release another port of that one obscure NES game that absolutely nobody is buying their online service for on their next Gen console. If they license any of their games, how can they rape the consumer financially? Can’t you think of the hungry employees at this small indie company that is going bankrupt because little 5 year old Timmy downloaded a copy of a game on N64 Sintendo doesn’t even have the rights to anymore?

We need a real world history lesson about the French Revolution. I volunteer the lobbyists play the monarchy.
- Comment on Louisiana lawmakers vote to remove lunch breaks for child workers, cut unemployment benefits 2 months ago:
There is nothing like a state that wants things to go back to the good old days where children were seemingly no different than indentured servants (or slaves if they weren’t white as pure cotton) if your family was poor.

Stuff like this makes me wish I was smart enough to be one of those DRM crackers.
- Comment on Yellow to yellow, red to red 2 months ago:
This is me with stairs. When going up or down stairs, I always have to get off them on my left foot. Can’t make the final step with my right foot at all. That’s bad.
- Comment on Discord is nuking Nintendo Switch emulator devs and their entire servers 2 months ago:
Well, the next best option would be paying for hosting in a 3rd world country who doesn’t give a shit about international copyright laws. Not an easy task, but hosting your own Discord like platform is probably the absolute best you can do if you’re running an operation like making an emulator while the copyright bandits cry foul.

Out of the only 3 games I got, Chu Chu Rocket. Absolutely love it.
- Comment on me too 2 months ago:
The bird in the image looks like something you’d see in one of those “X theme song horror (G minor)” videos on yt. The ones where they invert all the colors and pretend they created something scary.
- Comment on Tech titans assemble to decide which jobs AI should cut first 2 months ago:
Nah. At that point they’ll just delete the AI and spend millions on telling people that AI is bad and needs to be banned.

I heard about this from a video talking about how Relic Castle was taken down.
As of I didn’t need anymore reasons to buy a physical copy of The Anarchist Cookbook!

I was more of one of those kids who liked the rocks found by the playground at school more than the ones you had to purchase.

Honestly, so glad they are making this change. Now I don’t have to see the bottom of the barrel popular slop every time I use the incognito mode thing on Revanced.
