Device remote bricked in 3…2…1
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says 1 week ago:
Thats what I’m saying too. The reason they released it in the state they did was market pressure and most likely bad decisions in an abusive capitalist system. Thats the reason why I said it initially.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says 1 week ago:
Yeah, sadly. It has big crashing issues. feel free to check.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says 1 week ago:
Thats a fallacy. You’re essentially saying because one company was able to fix their shit, the systemic problem isnt real. Thats not the case. Look at the broader picture. Companies are consolidating, building massive conglomerates and the market is hostile towards its customers.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says 1 week ago:
Which one was the most recent? I always mix up the last two. But yes, generally. The last one is still a buggy mess, sadly. Cyberpunk is not btw.
- Comment on EA Cancels Black Panther Game, Closes Cliffhanger Games - IGN 1 week ago:
Its capitalism. Individuals will not change this. Systemic problems need systemic solutions. First step is outlawing centralization of capital and putting back legislation against large corporations. But good luck doing that in the US.

What do you mean? The game was a huge success.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says 1 week ago:
Yes. Welcome to late stage capitalism.

For those living in germany: please join the FAU (fau.org). All others: there are anarcho syndicalist (base democratic) unions around the world. Especially gig workers and other precaized workers profit from such a union.

Welcome, how about we talk about your inability to reflect emotions and open up to people close to you?
That’ll be 3000$, have a nice day.
- Comment on Bungie appears to have plagarized an artist's work and style in their extraction shooter "Marathon" according to this Bluesky post 3 weeks ago:
Listen, I want to dismantle a LOT of companies that are a thousand times bigger than this.
so if your concern for workplaces is so much higher than for people getting systematically fucked and not that rarely lose everything - even their lives - you’re gonna get real unhappy.
This system is fucked, stop defending it.
- Comment on Bungie appears to have plagarized an artist's work and style in their extraction shooter "Marathon" according to this Bluesky post 3 weeks ago:
Honestly, at this point the company should be dismantled and the leadership thrown in prison. These corporate edgelords wont learn. They will just overstep, inch by inch and the courts will understate their deeds over and over until there is only one company that rules the world and sell you your fucking liver by the minute.
Dismantle this pile of shit.

Adhd, the game on the switch is called adhd. :D

I suspect (and hope) that you are just unable to see it differently and cant try to view it from a different perspective. But it still is not healthy to behave this way. Please seek help.
- Comment on Nintendo Anti-Piracy Policy Device Lock Update Warns of Console Bricks for Unauthorized Use 4 weeks ago:
I mean, you do advertise that you’re perpetually angry but youre just rude and disrespectful. Your vague reproaches arent anything to work with, in case you really didnt know that. It like screaming "do your own research’ when certain groups are unhappy with science. Thats not how people function, it is ableist and unbecoming. Please do better.

And you dont find it weird that not all companies in japan go bankrupt because they have to literally claw back devices after sale to keep their patents? I know us autists can get stuck on ideas easily but do you see how their behavior is overzealous at best and this explanation being plain apologist bs at worst?

Apple has reportedly sued people trying to figure out the communication protocols and chips on hardware those people own.
Aside from the specific hackintosh problem, apple is no better.

Better yet: how do we fastly bankrupt nintendo?
- Comment on meirl 3 months ago:
Nope. It resulted in the original Netflix, aka a service that actually worked and had everything we wanted for a time. Direct reaction to mass piracy and actually reduced it by 90℅ iirc.
You also can’t crack down on non centralized services and the more decentralized nodes, the harder the job becomes and the more expensive. At some point it will become uneconomic to go after pirates.
And, yes there will be massively less movies & shows which is very good. We live in a fresh hell where billionaires push out half baked shit every week and the only way to tell them is to not buy it.
- Comment on meirl 3 months ago:
Anyone who still forks money to billionaires for entertainment might be stupid.
- Comment on Federal workers vs Elon Musk: I’ve never seen a billionaire carry the mail, put out a forest fire, make sure people get their Social Security checks, answer a phone call from a suicidal veteran 3 months ago:
We can take these fuckers down. Just start organizing purchases around them, together.
Let’s build federated platforms in competition to their corpo bullshit. Think federated payment. The Muslim community has been doing this for ages. It called hawala. Amazon is just a glorified shopping site. Its not even good anymore.
Can anyone link any projects that might go in this direction?
- Comment on Valve ban advertising-based business models on Steam, no forced adverts like in mobile games 3 months ago:
That would be a great solution. Another would be to put quotas of employees, customers, owners and the community (people living around a plant for example) in there. Just an idea though.
- Comment on Valve ban advertising-based business models on Steam, no forced adverts like in mobile games 3 months ago:
Two things can be true at once:
- valve so far took tremendous care of the people using their product. They have outclassed afaik every other billion dollar company in the world in terms of listening to their customers and not exploiting them to hell (as others do).
- billionaire companies are cancer. If gabe ever gives up valve (through death or whatever), we are at the mercy of a monopolist that can extract as much as they want.
My conclusion: force companies to behave like valve does now, but forever. Let them make money without exploiting people. And in case if valve: break any monopoly.
Down with shareholder value.
- Comment on Game Pass sets quarterly revenue record, sees 30% growth in PC subscribers 4 months ago:
I would agree if there wasnt a giant hole in your reasoning.
Once you stopped paying, „your“ library evaporated. It isnt that you rent out individual games. You have whole libraries built just from that.
And please dont go into the „gamers responsibility“. Thats an ableist view. Lots of gamers are underage and/or unable to make basic decisions especially against dark patterns and social pressure. Education and laws to limit exposure to this toxic stuff needs to happen, period.
- Comment on Game Pass sets quarterly revenue record, sees 30% growth in PC subscribers 4 months ago:
I know this is going to backfire: gamepass is convenient but every person subscribing fuels the toxic „rentseeking culture“ of capitalists worldwide. Some would say that its much better to pirate than to use this shit. Besides: it is technologically subpar and surely privacy invasive.

Exactly my thought. Thank you for pointing that out.
