- Comment on Study Claims 4K/8K TVs Aren't Much Better Than HD To Your Eyes 4 hours ago:
Yes, but wouldn’t we be using % of your vision vs pixels in display? Steam deck being right in front of my face and tv 5 or 6 metres away etc.
Absolutely higher res does look sharper though, which is great for movies etc. I’m more coming from a performance vs visual fidelity ratio. What I’m trying to express is that given 800p still looks surprisingly good, I’m starting to question the industry pushing higher resolution displays for gaming applications.

Fair, good luck with it. Just had to figure out that a drive from a windows install was causing huge permissions issues and any game installed on it wasn’t executing. Sometimes the problems can be really obtuse.

You know about protondb already? Gives a good list of potential fixes if you come across issues, it’s been a godsend on the rare occasions something doesn’t work first try

Honestly after using the steam deck (800p) I’m starting to wonder if res matters that much. Like I can definitely see the difference, but it’s not that big a deal? All I feel like I got out of my 4k monitor is lower frame rates.

It’s really fucking weird for this article to not be pointed at Millennials. Not better, kind of worse actually, and very weird. Poor bastards have it worse than we did and they’re starting to become the punching bag for no reason.

Bounced off voices of the void the first time, couldn’t get through the tutorial. Had a friend recommend it again, have done multiple play thoughs and is now any favourite vibes game.

Great set piece, mildly irritating execution
- Comment on Does it feel like the PS5's library is *severely* lacking compared to the PS4's around the same time in its lifecycle? 4 weeks ago:
I feel like given the amount of work required to make the kind of games that triple a represents, and the amount of money in and out, every game becomes a mess of different ideas and motivations with no unifying force. Every game must be everything to justify the price tag, but there’s no unifying passion or vision behind it. Of course the more you stuff in there, the more you can market it as well.

Chewing ice as well, supposedly it is motivated by iron deficiency.

I would be surprised honestly. Technology has stalled pretty hard, tariffs and hardware is not in a great spot, PS5 still looks great and honestly there’s not going to be much to sell a customer base. I could see them doing it, but it might be wiser to kick it down the road for a few years until things get a bit better, like they did with the PS3 and 360.

Yeah, exclusivity is dead, and games take half a decade to make these days.

I would expect they do, you can never expect anything to be flawless where cyber security is concerned unfortunately.

Clair was much more of a vibes based hiring and management process. Crazy how letting creatives do their thing results in interesting content people want to experience.

I agree with this assessment of battery technology, I’m curious what your thoughts on storage through other means, such as dams, kinetic batteries, heat batteries, that style of thing? I understand that it’d be a massive undertaking, but if we really put our nose to the grindstone we might be able to pull off a good amount of power storage through methods that already exist.
- Comment on Education doesn't increase intelligence by making people memorize things, but by constantly reminding people that they might be wrong. 1 month ago:
I think that’s a good part of it, learning fundamentals of things you’ll need is also vital. I’ve grown to mostly appreciate learning how to learn. It’s a skill that’s implicit, but putting the building blocks in at an early stage regarding how to seek and learn knowledge sets you up so well for the rest of your existence.

Why are the kids technologically illiterate and undersexed until it comes to matters of government control? I’m not usually into tin foil hats, but this doesn’t feel like the kids are the primary concern here.

Well you need to work on your communication skills as much as you do on your tone then.
You clearly are more focused on being argumentative and obtuse rather than engaging the argument that skills need to be developed, before you assign all the work to a machine that automates the process, but errors can and will occur.
Enjoy spending all your life entering every discussion predisposed to anger and argument, I’ve got better things to do with my time.

It’s an analogy. It’s referring to the original comment where people don’t have the skills to recognise how or why something doesn’t work. The core problem is without that fundamental understanding of what you’re trying to do, you don’t know why something doesn’t work.
