Discord is a blight, it’s an affront to human knowledge, and it should die a painful and fiery death.
- Comment on After parting ways with EA, WRC gets new home and six-year deal to "reboot" rally series 3 days ago:
When they were making DiRT 4, there was probably a meeting where they said: hmm, DiRT Rally was too good, how do we make it worse? And then they came up with a lot of suggestions and implemented all of them.
- Comment on After parting ways with EA, WRC gets new home and six-year deal to "reboot" rally series 3 days ago:
Dirt 3 was absolute garbage. Dirt Rally was great, if not a bit spartan, and Dirt Rally 2.0 is what I can recommend as possibly the best rallying game since Richard Burns.

Commies! Oh, wait.
- Comment on "I don't know" how much Borderlands 4 will cost, Gearbox boss says, but it had "more than twice the development budget for Borderlands 3" and "it might be" $80 like some Nintendo and Xbox games 3 weeks ago:
I’ve paid money like that when I could see the effort and love thwt went into the game. I kinda saw that in BL2, but nothing in the series since comes even close.
- Comment on U8: Cheap gaming handheld for under $50 offers long battery life 3 weeks ago:
As is often the case with such affordable retro handhelds, there’s no internal storage, but two card slots are available. One of these microSD cards should contain the operating system, while the other can be used to store games.
We have come the full circle. exotech.bm/wp-content/uploads/…/imb-pc-5150.jpg

I’m not disputing anything you are saying, but it kinda depends on whether you are building a cinema room or a living room.
- Comment on Harassed by Assassin’s Creed gamers, a professor fought back with kindness 3 weeks ago:
If you lack any self-worth and identity on your own, you will derive it from hating others.
- Comment on Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2 3 weeks ago:
I’m watching things in 4K and playing in 1080p. It’s exactly four times the pixels, so it’s pixel-perfect scaling and it looks fine. (58" TV and the sofa is about 3 metres far, so a bit on the smallish side. I’m sure a 65" would look just as good.)

They’re in all toy stores around here now.

Very true, but 2009 Wolfenstein isn’t underrated. It’s exactly correctly-rated.
- Comment on Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 hits 1m sales in just one day 3 months ago:
That badly. Updates made it better, though.
- Comment on Welcome to the Public Domain in 2025 | Internet Archive Blogs 4 months ago:
The MIT is, but GPL is actually very restrictive. For example, it disallows publishing derivative works without those being licensed under the same terms (or newer GPL versions). That’s why commercial companies are reluctant to use GPL-licensed code in their products.

Just FYI, most open source software is not in public domain, it is protected by the same copyright we are talking about here, except the author made it available under certain conditions (the licence).

What if the caped guy actually named a mighty fish instead of siding with one of two wrong answers?

I’ve definitely met my share of nuclear Karens.

This is the way.

Did you earn an iron urn?
- Comment on Qualcomm accuses Arm of anticompetitive conduct as its license is terminated due to 'repeated material breaches of Arm's license agreement' 7 months ago:
MediaTek 9400 fits within 10% of Snapdragon 8 Elite, so if you don’t intend to load a custom ROM, I’d say there are options.

I love how you’re totally ignoring 8 existed.
- Comment on Microsoft has a big Windows 10 problem, and only one year to solve it 7 months ago:
Microsoft has a Windows 11 problem. Staying on Windows 10 is a symptom.
- Comment on Microsoft and OpenAI ‘bromance’ begins to fray 7 months ago:
Altman is definitely a tech bro. Nadella is, I’d say, also one, although I’m getting a bit of “How do you do, fellow kids” vibe from him.

*ouroBROs 🤑
- Comment on TSMC execs allegedly dismissed Sam Altman as ‘podcasting bro’ — OpenAI CEO made absurd requests for 36 fabs for $7 trillion 8 months ago:
This guy is an absolute lunatic.
“Gimme all of the world’s money several times over for this fancy T9 that I’m playing with.”
If someone wrote a cartoon villain using his quotes, it would be dismissed as unbelievable and rubbish.
