- Comment on After 18 years, Blu-ray media production draws to a close — Sony shuts its last factory in Feb 6 days ago:
No it didn’t. I don’t know if a single vendor aside from Bandcamp that will sell you the actual files, and let’s be honest their catalogue is pathetic.

If I have to pay extra attention to a specific part of the screen during a specific part of a show just to notice the difference, is it really that big of a difference?

As a kid, my family’s first VCR was a Daewoo. Imagine my surprise when we passed some road construction and I saw the Daewoo excavators and other heavy machinery. Later on, a girl in my highschool class had a Daewoo. That one blew my mind even more for some reason.

5th Gen iPod Video for me, circa 2006. I actually loved the device, but having to use the trash software that was iTunes is what radicalized me.

League of Legends is just DotA with all the thinking removed in the same way that Skyrim is just Morrowind with all the thinking removed.
- Comment on Apple’s first Mac mini redesign in 14 years looks like a big aluminum Apple TV 2 months ago:
It’s because they launched this product with an actual reasonable amount of ram (16gb) compared to the 8gb they are still selling MacBooks with. So, if they can’t charge you $300 for a little bit of ram now, they instead are going to rape you on storage. Apple is still apple.

- Comment on Starfield's first DLC is one of the worst Bethesda and DLCs of all time 3 months ago:
but you’re just being a contrarian if you think the pedigree of the two companies is vastly different.
Even if we ignore all the other bootlicking and fanboying in the above comment, this statement alone is completely absurd. FromSoftware has developed over 50 games and CDPR has…4? Maybe 10 if you count mobile trash? By the year 2000 FromSoftware had released more successful games than CDPR has released total, good or bad, to date.
It’s no wonder that cyberpunk is such a piece of garbage really when you realize every other game CDPR ever developed has “the witcher” somewhere in the title.
- Comment on Starfield's first DLC is one of the worst Bethesda and DLCs of all time 3 months ago:
now we have CD Projekt-Red
Holy fuck gamers really do have the worst memories. Cyberpunk is still a shit game after 4 fucking years of patches. CDPR has like 5 titles and one of them is pretty good. FromSoftware has a legacy of bangers a mile long. These 2 companies aren’t even in the same wheelhouse.

5’s combat is better than 4’s in every single way
Halo 5 has ADS and Halo 4 does not. This alone makes Halo 5 combat worse.

Wireless cameras and “smart” doorbells shouldn’t even be seen as security devices to begin with. They’re for verifying your Amazon delivery and checking on the dog and nothing more.

Wrong. That took time and effort and some level of knowledge from the user, meaning the end product was still somewhat rare. We already know that a decent “AI” image generator can spit these out in seconds with zero skill or knowledge required from the user.
