  All he had to say was “we are working on it, in the meantime, use some frame gen, or bump your res down. Our bad”. But no, he had to be a dick about it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you had to buy a new TV, what brand would you get?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s the goal of the tv? Budget?

  Want the best quality picture? Want the highest refresh rate for gaming? Anything beyond just displaying a moving picture?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They just couldn't say the word⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Couldn’t even say fornication?

  Real life pro tips are always in the comments.

  Source for these human scale cryptic comparisons?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Star Citizen fans sigh deeply, rub their foreheads as developer casts doubt on Squadron 42's 2026 release: 'I don't know if we're going to make it'⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You know, when they mentioned 8k textures 10 years ago, I laughed because it was so overshooting gaming standards that it was laughable. Now I’m think they will be just on track when it actually launches.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A little memorial at the local dump⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  All I did on my NextDoor was post the quote from Kirk about being ok with gun deaths if it means 2a in response to someone asking for tots and prairies. The utter stupidity of what was said baffled me. I was called sleazy by one person, and a blue haired limp wristed boy from another (I almost asked if he meant to use the f slur but held my toungue). Only for using his own quote…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spotify Add Lossless Audio(24-bit / 44.1 kHz FLAC) for Premium Subscribers⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  100% agree, Spotify streaming to my soundsystem always sounded like ass. I thought it was something I set up wrong. I then tried Tidal and it was night and day difference.

  Hey, the new drop at Hobby Lobby

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Someone else will retire me when the time comes.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If you’re not spending more than 200 for your boots, probably not. The lowest price boot I know that is Goodyear welt (replaceable sole) is Thursday Boot Company. The big names are Redwing and Wolverine, and even some Wolverine aren’t meant to replace the sole.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You always were able to use a standard external drive. Yeah, the speed was slower, but you weren’t forced to buy the expansion card.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a 3080 and have all frame gen tech turned off, and still, almost every game I play can hit 60+ fps and 2k resolution, a lot can do 144. I get your point, but it’s greatly exaggerated.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  ASUS used to be the goat brand. They have since enshittified, and the biggest hit was their customer service. It’s 100% ass now. The product itself is really hit or miss now too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My $2500 TV doesn’t have a power button if it makes you feel better.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lush temporarily closes all UK stores in 'solidarity with Gaza'⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean…if they REALLY wanted to make a political statement (which LUSH has done in the states in the past) they would have EVERY Lush close. Just so odd they didn’t do it. I’m assuming Lush US is under some other kind of ownership?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe that’s the point I meant to make clearer. 8k, even compressed would take more bandwidth, or it’s going to be compressed so much that it totally defeats the purpose of 8k content.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lush temporarily closes all UK stores in 'solidarity with Gaza'⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So Lush U.S., watcha gonna do?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  How about uncompressed 4k before going to even more compression 8k. I have seen uncompressed 8k content on an 8k TV. I couldn’t tell the difference between it and a good quality 4k picture, and I’m admittedly a quality snob. I can tell the difference in 1080 vs 4k pretty easily even on cheap tvs, it’s just virtually non existent at 8k vs 4k in tv sizes up to 80 inch beyond viewing inches away from the screen.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yes, you can store data on a bird — enthusiast converts PNG to bird-shaped waveform, teaches young starling to recall file at up to 2MB/s⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But, birds aren’t real.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is playing horror games a good way to get desensitized to fear, or it gonna backfire and make my anxiety worse?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have anxiety but love horror movies. I struggle to play horror games though. Just something about being more immersed in it can push me over the edge.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What games have mastered "Both emotional extremes"?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Spiritfarer

  First, it feels like a cozy little game, awesome artwork, everything’s happy and chill. Then they hit you with the real game, helping people cross over after they died. Not so bad. Then the REAL real game is explained to you, and it is gut-wrenching. I didn’t just have a tear or 2, I full on ugly cried. Every emotion is utilized in that game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DM me on Spotify: Spotify launches a messaging feature.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You may be right, but there are less shit services. I’ll try quoboz or deeper before giving my money to jackasses like Dorcey or Spotify owner funding AI weapons.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DM me on Spotify: Spotify launches a messaging feature.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Just finished a Tidal trial and really liked it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Routine - Official Release Window Trailer | gamescom 2025⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Usually, when there is that much time between announcement and actual release, so much changes. The vibe and art direction really stayed the same.

  I agree. Build your phone to not melt, and don’t force degradation on the consumer in the name of “safety”.
