- Comment on Me when Valve releases a phone 1 day ago:
They would then have to compete with google’s storefront, which is wild to think about. Unless they pull an EGS and promise a much better revenue split, but even then it’s gonna be ridiculously hard
- Comment on Me when Valve releases a phone 1 day ago:
But it would be stable, reliable, accessible…
And have a 50% chance to be abandoned/unsupported in 2 years. In the real world they have zero reasons to release a standalone phone, (huge) maybe they could make a tablet for remote play.

How do you know they’re not running a local model? Ultimately the problem with LLM accusations is that short of a confession or doing some hardcore surveillance of the other person you can’t prove it

It’s possibly the most underrated type of jewelry, so much customization possible.
Not as beautiful as his hair in that one video though Image

Grills, i kinda like them bub chxpo wore them better
- Comment on Holy moly 3 weeks ago:
It will be as “good” as GTA 5 and RDR2. Completely linear entertainment with pretty graphics designed for the widest possible audience. I expect the same slow progression as 5, where you unlock clothing stores after completing like 25% of the game. I also expect a kernel level anticheat and an online mode that does everything they seem to criticize in GTA 5’s plot. Oh, and remove any remaining non-linearity, god forbid the player veers off by a centimeter from the scripted route.

I haven’t been on Reddit since the API fallout, but I rarely ever saw right wingers, nevermind bots.
That says more about you than about the site lol

There’s a reason so many comments of his were removed lmao. Try not to feed the trolls
- Comment on Beware, another "wonderful" conservative instance to "free us" has appeared 1 month ago:
Why tolerate the intolerant? They can host whatever they want, but there’s no reason not to exclude them if they intend on bringing harm. Tbh the word “excluded” doesn’t really fit, exclusion would be like someone getting kicked out of a bar, defederating would be more like the bouncer not letting you in.
At the end of the day even if it’s gonna be defederated by every other instance, nobody’s gonna forbid them from starting their own “bar” like the one shown, which means they’re not really excluded from the fediverse.

they are literally living in an alternative reality
Hmm, reminds me of a country that starts with R that the current US president’s trying to save.
- Comment on The Crew from Ubisoft gets revived thanks to the The Crew Unlimited project 1 month ago:
Same, picked it up on a whim a few months before the shutdown, couldn’t put it down. They got the tone perfectly, and the map is really good, and their progression system actually requires you to play the game. It felt magical, like a NFS World sequel of my dreams, the only downside was trying to set up steering properly.
Then i tried the crew 2, and haven’t tried it since, just doesn’t feel as good. - Comment on Social media platforms including X, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, WhatsApp have been restricted in Turkey 2 months ago:
Nothing of value to be found outside the few people that actually give a fuck making YouTube videos
Maybe where you live. Massively popular platforms like these are pretty good at gathering people for rallies/protests and spreading investigations, news and fundraisers.
Best case scenario is people switch to decentralized media, worst case - the momentum for their rallies is ruined and ppl get arrested for saying the wrong things online. Then (most likely) these platforms get unblocked and everyone forgets about it.
- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 2 months ago:
Makes sense, blurays are at like 50MB/s read, at least you could keep the disc and share it
- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 2 months ago:
I think that’s a bit too big to be just the OS, they have like 50GB of built-in stuff (share factory+astro but you can uninstall both). It’s probably something sensible like 60GB but they’re playing it safe by doubling the reserved space. It’s Sony after all
- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 2 months ago:
You lose some because 825GB refers to 825.000.000.000 bytes, divide by 1024 and you get 768GB usable space. In the early days of ps5 there was 667GB left over after OS and stuff
- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 2 months ago:
You can still get modern games on a bluray, but people started valuing convenience in the moment over everything else. That’s why digital-only consoles got so huge, on top of being cheaper.
- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 2 months ago:
I mean… you can still use physical media for games, just prepare for it to be awfully slow unless it’s like a tiny indie game or something low-fi. As for the console makers, they still offer non-digital models. Idk who’s “they” in this instance,

I wouldn’t be so sure. Modern AAA games are insanely big and resource-intensive. Just look at rdr2
