- Comment on G-Assist is ‘real’: NVIDIA unveils NitroGen, open-source AI model that can play 1000+ games for you 2 days ago:
How much legal trouble would I get for kicking a CEO in the testicles? it feels like it would be worth it if I ever met NVIDIA’s bosses.
- Comment on Google's latest reason to give them $14/month: "Watch in faster playback speeds with Premium" 1 week ago:
I am not against paying for services to unlock extra features, but I utterly despise the way YouTube premium is entirely composed of features we had but they took away.
- Comment on Larian reveal a new Divinity RPG that boasts "greater breadth & depth than ever before" 1 week ago:
Well, I guess they weren’t technically lying.
- Comment on Reddit files legal challenge against social media ban for under-16s 1 week ago:
The middle ground would be making these companies comply with rules that stop them manipulating users, but we already know that these companies would rather cop the fine and do the bad things anyway.
- Comment on Left 4 Dead dev Mike Booth has teamed up with JJ Abrams to make another four-player shooter, with purple aliens this time 1 week ago:
As when this was announced last week - meh. Sony, Live Service, etc.
- Comment on The Game Awards begins 11 hours from now. What are you looking forward to? 1 week ago:
I’ve never cared for it - the entire show’s awards and announcements could be YouTube Shorts that I can pick and choose to watch, and I’d get exactly the same thing out of it.
I wait a day and then check for a megathread with bullet points, then see if there is anything of interest to me.
- Comment on Russian children flood Kremlin with complaints after Roblox ban 1 week ago:
It’s the motive that is probably the sour part - they banned it for it’s LGBTQ+ content, not the pedophiles. They consider it worse than pedophilia..
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Last Postal game was released in 2022. “Long-dead”?
- Comment on ‘Everyone will miss the socialising – but it’s also a relief’: five young teens on Australia’s social media ban 2 weeks ago:
It seemed like there were differentiating opinions?

mine is still blocked ;_;
- Comment on Meta starts kicking Australian children off Instagram and Facebook 2 weeks ago:
I “lost” my old FB account because they demanded my ID to verify my legal name, near 11 years ago. I fucking refuse, and will always refuse.
Fuck Zucc.

Who hurt you
- Comment on Pocket8086 is a tiny DOS laptop for retro computing on the go - Liliputing 4 weeks ago:
I’m glad to know it exists, but that article felt like a waste of time.. just regurgitating the stats from another person’s article (posted yesterday!) and offering not much else, while putting their own Amazon links in to try and make the money instead.
Big meh.
- Comment on This is Jared Birchall. He is the right-hand man of Elon Musk. He also manages his wealth. Jared hates when people see his face. 4 weeks ago:
You posted sources for everything but the idea that Birchall loved it.
Not doubting, but it is weird that everything else in your post has citations and sources, except the crux of your point.
- Comment on Google’s Sundar Pichai says the job of CEO is one of the ‘easier things’ AI could soon replace 4 weeks ago:
A computer can never be held accountable, so a computer should never hold a management position.
Also, Sundar Pichai is a dick.

Does it have a shopping cart yet?
- Comment on Police detonated a ‘stinger’ grenade at a Melbourne protest. Now two activists may sue over their injuries 5 weeks ago:
Sounds too woke can’t do it apparently
- Comment on China tells citizens to avoid Japan travel as Taiwan row grows 5 weeks ago:
It’s funny all the tankies that defend China, but how do they justify that everyone else endorses free speech while China tries to silence it?
I worked with several Chinese and some Taiwanese people, and I can’t imagine any of them feeling okay with this.

oh for fucks Sake, I just want to finish my playthrough lol
- Comment on Steam Machine is huge for indie development 5 weeks ago:
Same!
In particular though, I loved my old Steam Controller, and hope this new one compares.
I’d still be using one now if they weren’t all bought by asshole scalpers and marked up 6000%.. - Comment on Red Dead Redemption Coming to Netflix, iOS, Android, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2 5 weeks ago:
Fuck Rockstar.

I remember this same discussion point when Valve released the first Steam Machines ten years ago.
- Comment on Fallout 4's script extender has already gotten its anniversary update, as Bethesda battle creation issues 1 month ago:
I’m happy to hear the Script Extender team were able to get there so quickly this time around! I was prepared to have to stop playing for a week or two.
Thank you to them!
- Comment on Exclusive: Writer Confirms ‘Star Trek: Khan’ Is Being Treated As Canon, Talks Potential Future Audio Series 1 month ago:
I remember hearing that they had a rule regarding on-screen being the only thing truly “canon”, with the first exception being Picard. Does this mean that whole thing is just out the window now?
- Comment on Australia’s aged care reforms take effect in November. Here’s what you need to know 1 month ago:
So I’m reading that the families are paying more, the companies are pocketing more, and the government is not covering as much. Sounds a bit trash.

“we care about other
people’scompany’s rights.” - Comment on Denuvo has been removed from Dead Island 2 1 month ago:
DI2 had Denuvo at all? Fuck em, then. It was on my list (negativity aside, I didn’t mind DI and would have gotten this eventually on sale). Instead I’ll save my money.
- Comment on Have Fallout 4 and New Vegas again, say Bethesda, and also a release date for Fallout 76's Burning Springs 1 month ago:
It’s funny, the way it is worded in game could be perceived that if it is a new purchase, it would be one that bundles the Creation Club content as part of the base game rather than extras to buy after the fact..
- Comment on Does you feel Crash Team Racing was better than Mario Kart? 2 months ago:
Appreciate that! I don’t recall there ever being anything explaining that in the game - I played through it and unlocked all the characters, beat the Tropy ghosts and some of the Oxide ghosts, but never heard of this stuff the entire time.
- Comment on Does you feel Crash Team Racing was better than Mario Kart? 2 months ago:
I don’t think nitro reserves were a mechanic in the original CTR
