Please post a link if you’re able, that sounds like a very interesting watch.
- Comment on What's an absolutely medium quality game? Not great, incredible or terrible or any single ended extreme. Dead medium quality 1 week ago:
I kinda agree. It was fun playing with my SO but they’re pretty boring on their own. The multiplayer is fun, but the actual story mode just kinda exists.
- Comment on WhatsApp is officially getting ads 1 week ago:
What app?
Really though, what was the main use for this kind of chat app? Genuinely since I assume there is one, I just don’t know it since I never had a reason to use it. Was it encrypted? Cause I get using specifically encrypted messaging systems, but if it’s not, was it that good of an option over other chat apps?
- Comment on Switch 2 Teardown: Still Glued, Still Soldered, Still Drifting 1 week ago:
That’s kinda the thing, a lot of people were basically just wanting just another switch because they liked the switch’s formfactor. It may not be innovative, but why innovate just for innovation’s sake, y’know? It’s a better switch, both in some improvements to the formfactor, and in the same way the Ps5 is just a better Playstation than the ps4.
- Comment on YouTube rolls out more unskippable ads that make viewers wait even longer to watch videos - Dexerto 2 weeks ago:
Occasionally I try the YouTube watch together thing on discord with my SO, and it really shows just how completely unusable YouTube is without an ad blocker.
- Comment on The first weekly What Are You Playing? thread! 3 weeks ago:
Ffxiv since the relic weapon stuff is out. Getting pretty far in that grind.
Also replaying symphony of the night. Just been in the mood for it. Haven’t really been playing anything new lately. Deltarune chapter 3 & 4 are out and I’ll start playing them tonight, but I’m at work for the time being sadly.
- Comment on DELTARUNE chapters 3-4 are out now! 3 weeks ago:
I’m not playing it until tonight after work sadly. Excited though. Deltarune’s honestly why I started my hobby of making music.
- Comment on Microsoft announces new Windows changes in response to the EU's (DMA) Digital Markets Act for EEA users, including Edge not prompting users to set it as the default unless opened 3 weeks ago:
I’m sad to say I had to drop Linux for a while because I run Nvidia. I heard that AMD is fine, and that Nvidia is baaaadically fine with a few issues still so I gave it a shot. But games just genuinely run noticeably worse with an Nvidia card. Games would lose 20-30 frames. Maybe not a big deal with my setup if I was using a 60hz monitor since most were still above 60, but I’m using 144hz.
It sucks too because it’s not fedora or Linux as a whole’s fault. It’s Nvidia’s.
Thought about keeping it but already had a few things I needed to dual boot windows for. If I still need windows for gaming, basically that leaves idly browsing the web as fedora’s main use. And I think that’s a bit overkill.
Looking forward to eventually getting an AMD card (Legit if you’re reading this and thinking about upgrading or building a new PC and think there even a small chance you’d go with Linux in the future, go AMD) or even just a whole new build. That way I can just delegate my current machine for those few tasks I need windows for, and have a main machine for general use.
- Comment on Half-Life 3 Has Been Designed to be ‘The Final Chapter’, It’s Claimed 4 weeks ago:
The Force Awakens was good, mostly by way of just being A New Hope again.
- Comment on DOOM: The Dark Ages Has Reportedly Sold Less Than 1 Million Copies 4 weeks ago:
Denuvo’s DRM instead of anti-cheat.
Though I also was wondering the same thing. Took me a minute to remember lmao.
- Comment on $80 for Borderlands 4 too costly? Randy Pitchford says, "If you're a real fan, you'll find a way to make it happen" 5 weeks ago:
That’s legitimately how I read what he was saying at first.
- Comment on The U.S. Just Ran a Solar Storm Emergency Drill. The Real Deal Would Be a Catastrophe 5 weeks ago:
Stuck having to go to work in a zombie apocalypse because you’re an “essential worker”.
- Comment on I'm a console gamer so, Why the hate on the Epic Games Store? 5 weeks ago:
Oh yeah, I didn’t think about that. That’s super gross.
- Comment on Square Enix considered ending Final Fantasy 11 in 2024, but player interest was high enough to keep it alive even after 20+ years 5 weeks ago:
Imagine if they actually did shut it down last year, the same year FFXIV had an expansions with tons of 11 references and even a raid series based on it.
- Comment on In the U.S., are all voting booth areas required to have carbon monoxide detectors? 1 month ago:
I’m no expert, but wouldn’t that require more longterm exposure? As opposed to a few minutes in a voting place that is.
- Comment on I'm a console gamer so, Why the hate on the Epic Games Store? 1 month ago:
I hadn’t heard about a game being made unplayable after they bought it, that’s seriously shitty. What game was it?
