  This implies every drink and its display is handled by its own computer running linux. Potentially mtndew has a different IP than coca cola. You need to ssh to this thing multiple times to do maintenance!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨get sum⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d say 10% not fucking is pretty standard/average and your thinking you were all (100%) doing it is either clouded by your own experiences or you grew up in a very liberal community where it deviates.

  Why its rising is questionable. Personally, I’d say its due to rising depression rates… well, it correlates at least.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PS5 update introduces Power Saver option with a trade-off | Polygon⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s gonna depend on the game. It reads like it’s a system setting that games can read and adjust their resource demand. Like a game boots up and checks if power saving is turned on and if it is, renders at a lower resolution or something like that. The system software will probably do that as well.

  So you see school children grow up through the years, see how their behavior, biology and culture changes. You’re a book away from being an anthropologist,

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What sort of grill needs a firmware update lol⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why does a grill need a screen and buttons? Maybe I’m living in the stone age, but what I call grilling involves putting charcoal to a flame.

  It also fucks up the main plumbing system right down to the water treatment facility and while there, it fucks that too.

  If your taxes pay for wastewater management, you’re fucking yourself up.
  If you pay in addition to your taxes, you’re fucking yourself up.
  If you have your own septic tank, you’re fucking yourself up.
  If it flows to the river directly and you enjoy clean nature, you’re fucking yourself up.
  If it flows to the river directly and your taxes pay for nature maintenance, you’re fucking yourself up.

  Grease down the drain is fucking yourself up and you deserve it. You can not win with it. It will come back to bite you.

  No, no, you don’t get it. It’s the other country that pays the tariffs… duh.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Steam controller was ahead of its time⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve owned one since the beginning, and the only major downside to the controller is that it requires relearning. No d pad, touch pads, back buttons are something not found on other controllers, so there is no familiarity you can bring to the device. As a result, you need to rethink and relearn how to use a controller. If you do end up learning it, it can bring a lot to the table because there is nothing like it in terms of customisability.
  Sadly i never put in the time and only played simple games on it. I still bist it out for mario kart.
  The other minor downside is its not exactly comfortable to use. The handles are angled upwards instead of down which feels unnatural to me… again, probably because no other cobtroller does ot that way.
  I keep saying to myself if I ever boot up cities skylines on the TV, I’m waking up the steam controller for it.

  First one was grand, didn’t need to be followed up or remade. Now we have a franchise… The only remake I wouldn’t mind seeing is a more brutal first one, closer to what the book was depicting. All I’d be interested in really.

  Drama drives these things. I totally understand Ross not wanting to engage in it 10 months ago but look at what it can do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It is what it is⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Naming it incognito was a mistake. It was always clear to me all incognito is, is a non persistent container to keep your browsing data separate from your regular browsing data. All its hiding is your porn browsing habits from your mom. But of course, the name implies much more.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The end of Stop Killing Games [Accursed Farms]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, so many influencers do this. It’s really a shame what kind of world we are building. People who actually have reach - influencers, staying quiet about real issues in fear of cutting the hand that feeds them. Off topic but damn if it doesn’t hold true.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We live in a society or smth⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  One could argue the article is anti consumerist since its talking about de cluttering, albeit in a weird way. At least, that’s what I’m assuming. As for organic conversation, beats “did you see [sports game] last night”. But that’s just me.

  What I’m seeing in Europe is a few sellers selling them, sourced from other steam decks. Used parts from non reputable sources. This is what I’m talking about. Yes, I could use them if I really needed it, true.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Switch 2 Teardown: Still Glued, Still Soldered, Still Drifting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And, as luck would have it, the thing that breaks on mine is the track pad and I cant find a replacement.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon predicts the future⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Trust is the most important part. You trust someone they made something themselves. They digitally sign their work with a public key that is known to be theirs. You can now verify they (the person you trust) made it.
  Once the trusted creator’s key is leaked, they are no longer trusted for future works.
  AI made content can be freely signed as well, but if you don’t trust the origin, the signature doesn’t matter anyway.
  The key thing is trust, the signature is just there to verify.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Day 332 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games l've been playing⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well said. I adjusted my expectations and found myself liking the game. I didn’t find the planets lacking in anything, really. I expected things to be barren as it felt more realistic. The game is photographiclly beautiful. While a lot of the gameplay and writing critique is valid, I didn’t think it was a fundamentally bad game, just mediocre in some parts and excellent in other parts many people simply overlook.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pick-ups from the Vancouver Retro Gaming Expo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I believe it uses DRM that doesn’t work on newer Windows versions. There’s a fan patch that removes the drm and the game should run. Online is probably not an issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do people like Mario Kart?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not sure if you’re trolling or what, but I still play MK Wii regularly with friends on local co op. Used to play it on the console, I now emulate it on a steam deck. There’s nothing that matches the quality and charm of the game on any platform and I say this as a regular opponent of Nintendo. I don’t find it unfair as it strikes a good balance between skill and luck. Everyone I’ve played with, gamers or not, pretty much agree.
