- Comment on EA are about to be bought for $50 billion by Saudi Arabia and Jared Kushner's investment firms, claims report 20 hours ago:
Not that I was buying any of EA's products for the longest time, but now I definitely won't even consider it for a second.
- Comment on Qualcomm unveil the Snapdragon X2 Elite and Snapdragon X2 Elite Extreme, the fastest and most efficient processors for Windows PCs 4 days ago:
Its the future of Windows, it allows Microsoft to have more control over the hardware. You will own nothing.
- Comment on Supporting the future of the open web: Cloudflare is sponsoring Ladybird and Omarchy 1 week ago:
And I explained that I disagree that it "wasnt that bad". It absolutely was an issue and it was handled poorly. Without the backlash, I highly doubt they would have changed their mind.
- Comment on Supporting the future of the open web: Cloudflare is sponsoring Ladybird and Omarchy 1 week ago:
After a large backlash, yes. It's all resolved now and I support the project, we need another browser engine. But to not see the issue at all? Really?
- Comment on Supporting the future of the open web: Cloudflare is sponsoring Ladybird and Omarchy 1 week ago:
It was pointed out and could have been corrected easily, nobody was accusing them of doing it intentionally. Instead they doubled down, which then did show their views and caused the controversy.

I think you can enable it as the default mode and then it will load the game quicker? Definitely checkout Unciv if you haven't already!
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
You can play Unciv on mobile I guess, I don't see why you would want a strategic view only though? Nothing stopping you just using that mode exclusively yourself.

Nah, 5 is still the goat.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong is out now on Steam - and it broke Steam servers for 15 minutes and counting now 3 weeks ago:
Steam just lends itself to indie games more, which is good. It could do better, but overall there's a lot of great games that get the recognition they deserve. Triple A finds most of it's success on consoles, where they can easily market it on the front page of the console, rather than just on the store.
PC is (unfortunately?) really getting mainstream now, so we are starting to see a lot morals thrown out the window by consumers just to play the latest AAA slop too.
- Comment on How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027) 4 weeks ago:
The question is, who wants to fork and maintain android? That's a massive undertaking, one that wouldn't seem worth it until it started getting meaningful percentages of market share.
- Comment on How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027) 4 weeks ago:
We already have that. A reason they want to shift to ARM is so they can lock the hardware down.

- Comment on Starlink tries to block Virginia’s plan to bring fiber Internet to residents 1 month ago:
Or we could just make satellite phone service more accessible? Without the need for thousands of pieces of space trash put into LEO? Nobody needs tiktok when they are climbing a mountain in a remote area.
- Comment on Starlink tries to block Virginia’s plan to bring fiber Internet to residents 1 month ago:
Id rather all this space trash burn up and we just spend the money on providing internet via land.

- Comment on Mozilla under fire for Firefox AI "bloat" that blows up CPU and drains battery 1 month ago:
The point is you shouldnt have to turn it off, its a web browser, we want to browse the web, not be subject to whatever shite Mozilla want to force into it. Features like this should be optional plugins you have to download.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0 1 month ago:
Overall scope was set by EA, they wanted a more mainstream shooter to compete with the likes of Call of Duty, so they could jump into the seasonal content/battle pass grind. But the devs made all these little individual decisions that add up.

If you've played any triple A shooters, you've played them all.

Blind consumerism is rampant.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0 1 month ago:
Yeah well too bad that ship has sailed as well. Such a shame, BF2, BC2 and BF3 were quality games, just needed a modern take of one of those instead of whatever this is we got.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0 1 month ago:
Game is generic enough, so it'll keep a playerbase.
- Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0 1 month ago:
Back when Battlefield was Battlefield, it would self-regulate because most people played on self-hosted servers, so cheaters and bad actors were taken care of swiftly. But now they want their own control to put shitty bots and SBMM in the game, so here we are.
