My underwear. Oh wait, they replaced it with a pair that has a hole ripped in it. God damn you, OpenAI.

Thank you for your service.

I’m stuck in a train with broken AC in a middle of nowhere. Train ahead had a malfunction, it’s likely it might have melted and is now being scraped off the tracks. Delay is „at least 60 minutes”. This might be my last post. Don’t send help, we need to cut the losses.

Influencers are unlikely to pass harsh judgment in cases like this because they think that their fancy business trips are a reward and they don’t want to miss on the next ones. Their opinions are worthless.

Nope.

For someone not aware that Microsoft is slowly closing down / offloading their entire gaming business it might appear as a competitive value proposition (in current market conditions). I’m sure they’ll sell a fair bit around the time GTAVI launches even if Sony will get most out of that cake. That’s probably why they think they’ll get away with those price increases. Maybe it’s a bit of preparation for how much Helix will cost too.

Last I checked it’s true that you can get framerate in the area of or even exceeding that of Windows. What’s rarely mentioned however is that frame pacing can suck (119 frames in 1 second then 1 frame in 1 second averages to 60 frames per second to give an over exaggerated example) and will contribute to stuttery feel despite adequate framerates.

A pleasant bit of news in the torrent of news about western game development collapsing. Maybe Nintendo got the right idea all along?

I figure most low level employees receive a salary which remains unaffected by company performance until layoffs begin.

Company performance affects salaries and layoffs even if it’s not 1:1. You’re making decisions that have financial impact on others and you never bothered to think what is their opinion on it.

Have you considered just ignoring GTA VI rather than anticipating it to be such a good game that you’re definitely going to pirate it, giving it free publicity in the process? It’s not even out yet, it might suck.

It is surpassingly low as analysts were speculating it could be $99.90 which wouldn’t be that much of surprise given how much a game like GTA VI costs to produce.

I’m not going to pass judgment on someone pirating things because they can’t afford to buy them. If you’re appealing to ethics as a rationale for piracy, maybe try to get consent of regular Rockstar employees before you punish that evil management by taking things you want for free. Ignoring GTAVI is perfectly fine and what I plan on doing.

GamersNexus confirmed that Steam Machine will randomly ship either 2x8GB DIMMs orrrrrrrr a single 16GB DIMM of RAM. Single-channel RAM has lower perf, and we’ll eventually see real-world tests of whether that’s a noticeable difference for SteamOS gaming or not. Valve confirmed they did this due to being at the mercy of RAM availability - lest they ship far fewer units at launch. Woof.

Yeah, it’s going to be a whack-a-mole until entire group of chemicals is banned, which is proposed currently.

I think you could have easily shared it to one of multiple US domestic politics communities on Threadiverse.

Steam is already enshittified, you’re just not the one being screwed. I don’t think there’s any other store on PC that takes cut as big as Steam does.

What would it take to convince you that regular people are no longer in power, have felt this for a long time, and now are lashing out by voting for political hooligans? The longer we refuse to accept it, the worse it’s going to get.

Belief that artists should be paid for their work is now conservative and not simply the opposite of neoliberalism XD

Sorry, couldn’t help myself, I’ll stop now, just forgot to set ignore before.
