- Comment on Video Game Physical Software and Hardware Sales Just Had the Worst November in the U.S. Since 1995 - IGN 2 days ago:
Switch 2 has a much healthier margin than Switch. Nintendo is actually making money on the hardware this time. They don’t have the lineup or the services to justify the hardware being a loss leader and won’t until probably 2027.
Here’s to hoping the Steam Machine is $799 or less.

Good, maybe now prices for them will finally come back down to reality. $500 for a switch is bonkers and $800 for an Xbox of any variety is outright criminal.

You’re not wrong. That being said, I don’t hate Safari mobile, it’s pretty solid and has great compatibility. There’s something to be said for using the hardware most of the web if generally designed for.

Would love to see an iOS version. I do enjoy the FireFox functionality of seeing tabs on other devices easily.

Ok fine

What even is the potential point for this? Is it just a suicide cable?

This kind of game sounds right up my alley. I would love to help in some way.
- Comment on Question on TV's 1 month ago:
Most people will recommend avoiding any “smart” features on the TVs sets and say buy a monitor cause they have no smart features. Rightfully so, TVs can be privacy nightmares potentially.
That said I have recommendations for both:
Midrange TV pick: LG 48B5 - $529 at Best Buy
Fancy smaller Monitor Asus ROG Swift 32 OLED Monitor
Premium TV LG C5 (Available in 42, 48, 55, 65, 77, and 83 inch)
Ultra Premium LG G5 (Available in 55, 65, 77, and 83 inch)
Budget TV TCL QM7K
Budget Monitor Samsung G5 series
Pound for pound dollar for dollar LG makes the best OLEDs and overall TVs. Sony is good but not worth the premium anymore.

So wise-cracking self-aware platformers are back now? Cool.
- Comment on Recommendations for games to play on a treadmill (i.e. not too intense) 4 months ago:
Resident Evil on a treadmill isn’t strenuous?! Mad lad territory.
I love a simple but satisfying puzzle game like Peggle, Nubbys Number Factory, Hexic, Lumines etc
- Comment on ROG Xbox Ally Is $700 And Xbox Ally X Is $1050 5 months ago:
I think people underestimate what consumers are actually willing to pay for high end gaming hardware. Their pitch is going to be that it’s a PC with Xbox compatibility. For most gamers looking at this, their competing option would be a gaming laptop.
Or it could be a fat fucking flop cause it’s overpriced and has a stupid fucking name.

Well that’s awful.
- Comment on So many bands emphatically demonstrate that successful communication is not about what you say, but how you say it 6 months ago:
I always viewed PUSA as a more original rock flavored Weird Al. Similar energy, but they did their own thing.
Fun fact, the lead singer went on to write many albums of children’s music as Caspar Baby Pants.

If memory serves me right, this was supposed to be a “Steamboat Willie” game originally. When the copyright expired this was one of the trailers I remember making headlines. It looks like they decided to make it their own. Honestly it looks so well done, I’m happy they just decided to do their own thing.
