Not that it worked well. Just MORE well. er.

I discovered him twice, first as
Peoplemover Guy
then
Toaster Guy
My wife and I also called him Technology Connections for a couple of years, as if that was his actual name.
Like how Techmoan is that other guy’s actual name that his wife calls him and he signs on documents
- Comment on Final Fantasy III, IV, VIII and IX are now available on GOG 3 days ago:
Nah, was kind of a joke. I had put off playing FF games for years, and bought X-2 not really knowing FF (was aware of 7) but thinking “it’s the latest one out, so probably the best?”
About 20 minutes in I realized it was probably not the best introduction to the series.
Have played a number since.

I’ve played FF X-2, there’s no point in playing another one, right?
- Comment on Why is Valve being sued for almost $900 million, but Epic Games wasn't sued when they bought Rocket League and Fall Guys to remove them from steam? 5 days ago:
I don’t understand the reply. I was replying to the topic. I’m not a fan of Epic either but people are being kinda stupid about some of the justifications for the hate.

For what it’s worth Xrdp seems to work well on Linux
Even on Wayland?

Is this like an ADHD subject jump, or…?

Star Citizen I guess. If by “well” it is meant “making lots of money”
But yeah it’s not realistic at all for 99+% of devs/games

Also, the content is statically-generated only, I guess? No server-side rendering? No POSTing, etc? Or…is this creating some cache based on a real server it contacts…?

It must be some sort of base pessimism thing. My automatic assumption was that it was benevolent and intentional.

I’ve been to that restaurant.

- Comment on Tesla's own Robotaxi data confirms crash rate 3x worse than humans even with monitor 1 week ago:
Well, millions of morons are still buying their shit (including power products and services), and investors are super pleased, and Elon and other execs are making out like bandits. And there’s no sign of that changing dramatically.
So pretty well, as far as they’re concerned.
- Comment on Ugh... I forgot to pack a towel 1 week ago:
That may be what reddit said they were, but this is not reddit. Most of the ones that people complain about fit the community description just fine.
