- Comment on Speed test pits six generations of Windows against each other — Windows 11 placed dead last across most benchmarks, 8.1 emerges as unexpected winner in this unscientific comparison 2 days ago:
This is not a proper test. Windows does optimizations on the first few boots which makes the startup take longer. As it’s not mentioned in the video, we have to assume this was not accounted for, which completely invalidates the results.
- Comment on Dell and Lenovo may limit mid-range laptops to 8GB DDR5 RAM in response to rising memory prices 2 weeks ago:
I feel that. My new workstation will have 128 GB, I’m very excited about it
- Comment on Dell and Lenovo may limit mid-range laptops to 8GB DDR5 RAM in response to rising memory prices 2 weeks ago:
I wouldn’t be happy with 8 GB of RAM regardless of OS.
- Comment on Where do you store your bind mounts? 2 weeks ago:
I have multiple compose stacks with one folder each, and they also contain all the bind volumes and any other extra files needed.
- Comment on ‘Baldur’s Gate 3’ Maker Promises ‘Divinity’ Will Be ‘Next Level’ 3 weeks ago:
Stirring hype has failed too many times. I’m sure they have big plans for the game and it’s going to be very good. However, promising so much so early just screams incoming drama to me.

You don’t have to sue anyone. You can ask the offenders to correct their website and if they don’t, give a notice to the data protection authority in your country and they will handle it from there.

LFS is for memes. I guess Nix is a level up from Arch.
- Comment on MY WINTER CAR - Cinematic Trailer 5 weeks ago:
From the Steam page:
BE WARNED: This game is for players who already master the challenge of My Summer Car. Definitely not recommended for any player not familiar with the original installment.
Very interesting, I really like that approach. However even the first game looks like you need to know a lot about cars beforehand (feel free to correct me on that). Let’s hope enough people will buy it.

Works great to me, I pay nothing, why would I change that?
- Comment on Settings you believe ANY game should have? (This is me advocating for a restart/reboot button on ALL games) 5 weeks ago:
Okay you can now control the shadow casting behavior of every single entity in the game individually. Happy?

It never fails to amaze me, how much C-level people are disconnected from reality.
- Comment on Indie game developers have a new sales pitch: being ‘AI free’ 1 month ago:
I would primarily understand it as being free of generative AI (picture and sound), which is what is most obvious when actually playing a game. I’m personally not against using LLMs for coding if you actually know what you’re doing and properly review the output. However at that point most will come to the conclusion that you could write the code manually anyways and probably save time.

How long does it take from what? We don’t hibernate or reboot, what do you mean?

It’s absolutely real.

Oh wow, a joke about queer people, how original
- Comment on Rockstar Games Employee Calls Out Studio For Spreading “Disinformation and Lies”, Union Busting 1 month ago:
That is my observation too. Money is no longer the end goal, it’s now the means for unlimited power play with the general society.
- Comment on Ah, progress. 2 months ago:
Man I’m still kinda bummed they disbanded right before I would’ve had the chance to see them live. I had my tickets for almost a year I think.

No they won’t, because I’m not stupid enough to buy a ridiculously overpriced fridge.

MAGA is a group of people in the US. This phenomenon however is worldwide, and nobody in other countries is going to use a US reference for it.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
The release window for Arc Raiders could not be worse. Right between Battlefield 6 and Tarkov 1.0. Also a few weeks ago Arena Breakout Infinite released, which is also a very competent extraction shooter, that I had lots of fun with before Bf6.
This activity is a good sign for Arc Raiders, however it’s only a free playtest while the full release will cost 40€. How many of those players enjoying it now will actually cough up this much money for a game in a genre with many failed games before it? Dark and Darker was hugely popular during its last playtest and rapidly declined after the paid (Early Access) release.
I hope that they’re successful with Arc Raiders. I think the extraction genre is super interesting and needs more healthy choices that are not Tarkov (which has so many problems of its own).

- Comment on can we now "safely" auto upgrade immich? 2 months ago:
But that’s why we have semantic versioning. Automatically apply minor versions and fixes, but notify for major versions.

None of those come close to the features Discord has.
- Comment on Notepad gets AI features like Summarize, Write, and Rewrite, using local and cloud models. 3 months ago:
I’m usually very defensive of Windows. However, a few days ago I wanted to take some notes in Notepad and it kept changing up what I wrote. As this has forever been the most simple text editor imaginable, it took me a good moment to realize, that they implemented auto-correction (which we know is a lie anyways). The ridiculous thing is, nobody but tech people uses Notepad anyways and I can’t imagine that they want these slop features in it. The value of it was the simplicity and that is now lost.
