Try using Steam link with a regular controller, and put it in mouse mode. You’ll be wishing for those touch pads.
- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 2 weeks ago:
Hmm. Ok. That’s fair I guess. Still bummed, but I guess I’ll give it a try when it’s released. Still better than a quest.

I waited long enough. Just gonna go ahead and get the psvr2 with the pc adapter.

Elite Dangerous is phenomenal in VR. Same for Star Wars: Squadrons. But I’m a big space sim fan.

I’ve already had a headset for years, and it’s incredible. You don’t know what you’re talking g about.

Been waiting for this vr headset to release for years, only to find they’ve used lcd’s instead of OLED screens. I’m so disappointed and pissed.

That wouldn’t show in the task manager as telemetry.
- Comment on Bewildered enthusiasts decry memory price increases of 100% or more — the AI RAM squeeze is finally starting to hit PC builders where it hurts 3 weeks ago:
Constant surveillance will do that. Legit “telemetry” wouldn’t be using that much processing power.
I’m thinking Recall is just Microsoft trying to cut costs on their servers processing all the surveillance, and force users to pay the costs of all the extra electricity and equipment needed.

Good luck on your journey to live a tech free, pre-industrial life. Sounds unpleasant.

It’s such a game changer, it’s damn near mandatory for pet owners.

I’m anti-cloud connected devices, too, but the right answer is getting one that’s local or disconnected. Guess they were too dumb to figure that out, and making fun of people who make the compromise on it maintained their ego.

If you’re opposed to modern conveniences, get a broom.
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 5 weeks ago:
I’d add being able to set a different temperature for the driver and passenger. It’s a godsend for relationships.
- Comment on The Sodium-Ion Battery Revolution Has Started 5 weeks ago:
You think the Dems won’t help them do it? The Democrats are already backing tariffs and import bans on Chinese cars and solar panels.
- Comment on necessary read 5 weeks ago:
This includes people who give everyone shit for not voting for the “lesser” corruption. Accomplices all.

Bingo.
- Comment on I AM BETTER 5 weeks ago:
That’s the trick. None of them have all of the pieces. We’re a social species. All of our efforts are collective. We use our combined brainpower to make these breakthroughs.
The first person crossing the line gets all the credit, because our society is obsessed with credit and patents. And then it freezes the advancements for the length of exclusivity, until we can all finally start working on it together again. It’s stupid and inefficient. We need to stop teaching these individualism myths.

No wonder the comments are weirdly positive. The mods delete anything even slightly critical. Is this community ran by paramount mods?
- Comment on Star Trek: Starfleet Academy | Official Trailer | Paramount+ (NYCC 2025) 1 month ago:
So they’re still chasing a general audience that isn’t interested, at the expense of an existing fanbase. Even though it’s been falling flat for at least a decade.
Y’all are nice for being apologetic & understanding for them, but if you want a new audience then you can make a new IP without all the baggage. Wrecking an existing IP doesn’t make sense.

Yes, most of the “top economists” are simply those who best regurgitate capitalist propaganda.
- Comment on Everyone should have a home server (or a friend that has one) 1 month ago:
I have done my research. I’m positive I’ve read more theory than you, since you seem to think selling thinks makes you a capitalist. The education system failed you.

Oh spare me. We’re talking about people supporting white supremacy as “nuanced” policy.

And the Spotify ceo just stepped down so he could focus on weapons systems for Israel. The people running all of our media services are Nazis.
- Comment on Sage advice? 1 month ago:
Same, but because burning sage is cultural appropriation of a sacred indigenous belief. We burn rosemary or cinnamon.
- Comment on We don't use the word 'fascist' because we wish harm on anybody. We use it because words mean things. 1 month ago:
A dead giveaway is when they start throwing around the word ‘nuance.’
It must be in the script they’re all taught, because every closet fascist or astroturfer loves defending fascist policies and actions with “nuance.”

Showing your ignorance again. Capitalism is not the existence of markets. It describes the concentration of wealth and control of resources to extract profit.
- Comment on Everyone should have a home server (or a friend that has one) 1 month ago:
No, just people who swallow western propaganda without question.
- Comment on Everyone should have a home server (or a friend that has one) 1 month ago:
Do you? The existence of markets does not make a country capitalist. Concentration of wealth and control of resources makes a country capitalist, and the party/people control the resources and profit allocation.
- Comment on Everyone should have a home server (or a friend that has one) 1 month ago:
They’re literally executing billionaires.
