Simple. I’ll just download it. Back in my day you used to be able to download RAM too.

I don’t understand the word “purchasing” in the context of “Sony product”. What do you mean with that?

“Hello chat! Today’s challenge is to make the Steam Deck lose 20% of its performance. I can’t wait to get started!”
- Comment on Valve's new hardware will NOT be loss leaders 3 days ago:
Look at their website. It pretty explicitly states you can do with the Gabe Cube whatever you want. Including changing the OS.

MCP?
They’re calling it the MCP?
Did they do that on purpose, or are they really so small, soft, uncultured, and tone deaf at Microsoft? It’s… Probably the latter, isn’t it…

I wish I could tell you, but for all the cool and sensible things we have her, Denmark comes with… this.
What the fuck is this, Denmark?
- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 6 days ago:
I’ll probably use VR mostly to play sims. Elite Dangerous, X4, I also have a few racing sims.
But ultimately depends on the price. I’m not going to sell my organs for what is essentially a really cool immersive gimmick.

Depends on what kind of person you are. I know of individuals who practically live in VR.

Another American who doesn’t understand what communism is.
- Comment on 'I think we're in the fight of our lives': Fired Rockstar employees and IWGB are confident the GTA 6 developer will be held accountable for its alleged union busting 1 week ago:
Likewise. I also passed around the message between my union guys; “don’t you dare buy GTA 6”.
- Comment on Game marketing company takes down blog post bragging about how good it is at astroturfing Reddit after Reddit finds the post 1 week ago:
I don’t. I just recognise there’s a change and people didn’t like it. Nobody had issues with a woman being the main protagonist.

They changed her design to fit some arbitrary anti-beauty standard. I don’t find the change egregious, but it’s obvious why it was done.
- Comment on The Economist on using phrenology for hiring and lending decisions: "Some might argue that face-based analysis is more meritocratic" […] "For people without access to credit, that could be a blessing" 1 week ago:
Like every corporate entity, they’re trying to redefine what those words mean. See, it’s not “insufficient knowledge” if they’re using an AI powered facial recognition program to get an objective prediction, right? Right?
- Comment on The Economist on using phrenology for hiring and lending decisions: "Some might argue that face-based analysis is more meritocratic" […] "For people without access to credit, that could be a blessing" 1 week ago:
Woaw, we skipped right from diversity hiring to phrenology hiring without wasting a single beat. Boy has the modern world become efreceint.

Pretty sure Horizon Forbidden Dawn was well liked, despite having a woman speaking, but Horizon Forbidden West was hated on for changing the design of her.
- Comment on What's a recent game you've tried playing that isn't worth the hype? 1 week ago:
Mario Kart World.
Soundtrack is 11/10. But they dropped the ball hard on the entire open world aspect. Completely wasted the entire potential.
Instead we get lame ass intermission tracks that count as the first two laps of the next race, so you don’t even get to enjoy the new and remade tracks during championships, because you’ll blink and miss them.
- Comment on The Big Short Guy Just Bet $1 Billion That the AI Bubble Pops 1 week ago:
Yay, yet another once in a lifetime financial crisis.
- Comment on For those of you who enjoy open-world games, how big of a world is too big? 2 weeks ago:
There is no open world that is too big. They can only be too small.
However, the quality of an open world is not predicated on the size of the open world, but rather what is actually in it.
And this doesn’t mean that open worlds must be drowning in content, as the quality of the content itself also matters, and certain worlds that are large and empty can still be interesting due to its traversal being good, or the sandbox nature of a large empty world.
Some of the worst examples of open worlds are the kind that are just filled with isolated little fetch quests; busywork that’s all marked on the map with no element of organic exploration. Or the kinds of open worlds where nothing actually happens “organically” without the player starting it.
The best kinds of open worlds are the ones that emphasise exploration and/or have background systems governing the world in some way (i.e. factions that interact with each other without the explicit involvement of the player).

Just blaming god again for all the unexplainable stuff. Only instead if god it’s a simulation.

This.
- Comment on She is making a GREAT point 2 weeks ago:
Excuse me, but birth control is not just a pill, it’s the entire process that includes putting on a condom. And it’s expected of guys to use condoms.
Besides that, there are pills and procedures a guy can do as birth control.
- Comment on We could have lived in a world where Hideo Kojima made a Matrix game, if only someone had told him he was offered to make one 2 weeks ago:
Any LEGO game can be good if it’s your first LEGO game. None of them are badly made, with the exception of a few, but they’re all made the same way.
If you’ve played one…
- Comment on We could have lived in a world where Hideo Kojima made a Matrix game, if only someone had told him he was offered to make one 2 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t put the LEGO games on that list. Traveller’s Tales just basically copy-pasted most games, to the point 3 were releasing within the same year.
It made them horribly bland.

*Most licensed games suck. There are some good ones.
- Comment on We could have lived in a world where Hideo Kojima made a Matrix game, if only someone had told him he was offered to make one 2 weeks ago:
I mean, Hideo Kojima tells stories that are a little convoluted and has layers of metaphor in them… Kinda like The Matrix, so he’d have been a perfect fit.

Know any brave militant activist vandals in your area? Would be great if these cars get fucked the moment they hit the streets.
- Comment on Don't try to stop me 2 weeks ago:
Apples and oranges are often used as two things that cannot be compared, but there is so much that can be compared between the two. They’re both sweet tasting fruits toy can make juice from. They both have tang, at different levels and depending on which strain or what ripeness. The trees they grow on both have leaves, roots, bark…
- Comment on Just FYI 2 weeks ago:
Really? Because if I use “if I remember correctly” I mean I’m not 100% sure of I do and am completely open for someone else to come along and show me the correct answer.
There are a few times I mean it cynically.
