I thought this was a repost from a while ago, but USA gonna USA.

warm,

How is everything these Israeli officials say just the most delusional shit ever?

warm,

Sony being scumbags? Who saw that coming? They definitely don't have that reputation...

warm,

This is one of those shitty products that you can see being shitty from a mile away, yet all the coverage and discussion around it gives it a life it otherwise wouldn't have had.

warm,

Even in blind tests with high end gear, people often mistake 320kbps MP3s as the lossless track. Compression is incredible these days and isn't inherently a bad thing like it used to be, it saves a lot of space and bandwidth with minimal to no perceivable difference in quality.

And as you point out, not even worth considering with average equipment.

warm,

There just isnt though. Spotify had the best UX of any music streaming service for the longest time and only recently have they started shooting themselves in the foot.
Lossless is pointless and not a selling point compared to interface and usability across hardware. Tidal is probably it's closest competitor, but it still doesnt have the integration Spotify does.

warm,

Discord users are being tracked by Discord anyway.

warm,

I was happy with an ad at the side of the video. Then they started popping up over my video, then they started appearing before my video, then they started appearing throughout my video. Companies shot themselves in the foot with online advertising, banner ads and such weren't much of a problem, but once ads start disrupting the content we visit a site for, then we look to block them ads. More people blocking ads is less revenue, so they make the ads more aggressive... and the cycle continues.

And on a side note, Linus can fuck off.

New AMD CPU leak looks like a perfect fit for Steam Deck 2 (www.pcgamesn.com)

Honestly I think it’s probably too soon for the kind of significant performance increase Valve is wanting for the Steam Deck 2. Not to mention that the OLED deck just came out. That said, even if these chips don’t make it to a Deck 2 I’m sure we’ll see them in competing devices....

It depends on efficiency, it's all good and well having more performance, but if the battery life is only 2 hours it's useless. I imagine Valve will wait a couple years yet.

warm,

The only reason the headphone jack was ever removed is to sell you wireless earbuds.

warm,

There's a lot of DRM-free games on Steam. It's up to developers to use their DRM, it's not a requirement by Valve.

warm,

Adobe is a cancer the second it is installed. Avoid this shitty company if possible, there's loads of fantastic and better alternatives to their products these days.

Kernel level AC has got to go, any sort of invasive AC does.

warm,

Or, hear me out, they could just be a polite human and ask about the issue before jumping to conclusions? It could be a simple case of them restarting the network to fix it. Throwing a tantrum over this without any other information or communication is just pathetic, why would that be your gut reaction?

warm,

Your attitude towards it is why they exist in the game in the first place. There should be no micro-transactions.

The game is a $70 singleplayer experience. It should have no online requirement, no microtransactions.

warm,

MTX have become normalized and it's fucking depressing to see. So many people defend their existence, truly a sad time for the industry.

Jesus fucking christ man. How fucked in the head are you?
Her having cancer is no worse than any other person getting cancer, I agree it's not exactly news or worth being upset over more than anyone else getting it, but don't wish death on people, thats just psychoward behaviour.

The skies are already polluted with Starlink satellites and there's even more coming. I agree that is does solve some situations, but it's being done for profit, not for undeveloped areas. Sticking more shit in our skies for money is really sad, I am surprised there's not more international regulations for this kind of satellite spam.

Introducing Steam Families (steamcommunity.com)

When you join a Steam Family, you automatically gain access to the shareable games that your family members own and they will also be able to access the shareable titles in your library. The next time you log in to Steam, this new ‘family library’ will appear in the left column as a subsection of your games list. You...

Being able to play a game simultaenously is insane news!

I think he means normal sized phones, instead of the 'phablets' we are surrounded by now. I still think the ~6.1 inch screen is the perfect size.

warm,

When did graphic design stop being graphic design? 10 years ago?

"Former Battlefield director" meaning, worked on the upcoming Battlefield narrative. Had nothing to do with Battlefield before the franchise's death.

His real accolade was being the fucking Halo Creative Director at Bungie. Who writes these titles?

warm,

Valve could reduce their cut honestly, perhaps some program for independent developers to help them get on their feet. I don't think the top games or big publishers should be getting cut reductions.

Either way, Valve haven't been buying out studios for exclusive games, so Epic and Sweeney can go fuck themselves, they are scum.

warm,

Or we can just use DisplayPort?

warm,

Unfortunately most get royalties from HDMI, so won't endorse an alternative.
