  Hey, I know this drug, it makes your snipe zoom more stable in Metal Gear Solid.

  So, what you are saying is that you didn’t see them being summoned, just that the despawn takes a couple of hours. That makes sense otherwise it would be too op.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is gold investing a scam?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There was a video essay by Folding Ideas (From “the line goes up” fame) about a weird documentary narrated/hosted by Idris Elba, and If I am remembering it right it was basically a propaganda/ad film targeting people like peepers and that are skeptical of the government and such. So I believe there is at least a push to make gold more marketable and in fashion, like De beers did for diamonds.

  I don’t know if I am allowed to link to outside content (because the rule of no reposting outside content) but in any case it should be easy to find for anyone interested.

  I almost bought that keyboard, but never did in the end.

  It was not most resources. It was just one SPE that was locket behind for the firmware.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel the standardization they mean is in the spec and not the specific build. Like, a lot of games are terrible optimized, not only on runtime but also in space needed, it is getting out of hand. But if you have to target a popular machine like steam deck or the steam machine that is not super high-end and have lower capacity storage you have no option but to put some attention on optimizing you game at least a little.

  Then it adds barrier to entry. If it costs money it will be a problem for the more vulnerable population. If it is free and you can have as many as you want it is gonna be abused, if there is a limit it again starts to be a problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Settings you believe ANY game should have? (This is me advocating for a restart/reboot button on ALL games)⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I always dread picking up a new game that is kinda demanding on the hardware because I hate to keep testing all graphical settings to have the best graphics with good fps. The least they could do is show a split scene with each setting on or off so you can judge with your eyes, but a button that you set the fps and the game crunches some numbers and benchmark to find the best quality graphics settings it can do at the target fps.

  If it can adjust the graphics on demand would also be awesome because some games can have variable demands during gameplay.

  Oddly enough I think that porn games are a little closer to do what you suggest because rewatch the cutscenes is kinda important it seems in that genre 😅

  Om that note, see the save-tree would be nice. So you know when saves diverge and such.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gaming Pet Peeves⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also cyberpunk loves to do a double duty multiple unrelated actions to one keybind so you cannot rebind each action individually.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gaming Pet Peeves⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  When the game let’s you rebind some but not all keys it is like spraying lemon on the wound, at least when no key is refundable you can guess they could not be arsed to do it, but when they just do a shitty job on it is like it was almost there, why not do it right?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Did you get streaming services to stream 4k? That was some bullshit I discovered when I bought my first 4k TV, that streaming services artificially limit quality for browser and Linux streaming.

  What is you solution for remote controlling? I used one of this mini keyboard+mouse combo in a shape of controller, but mine was really trash. Most of the time I used a good mouse that worked ok on the couch surface and some mouse binds to pop up a virtual keyboard. But I was never completely happy with the solution.

  At launch and for a good while PS3 came with a boot to Linux enabled by default, some universities around the globe bought some “from the shelf” to make some server farm and such.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Also people who like to DIY seem to forget that a lot of people want a turn-key solution, I even dare to say that most people prefer a ready made solution. Even a lot of people who work in tech when they get home want a just work solution.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That'd be helpful⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That is true. I also was luck enough to have a friend that didn’t mind at all to pick me up out of his way even if just as a companion to do errands and stuff. Otherwise the distance would be a problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That'd be helpful⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That is so true. It is like a silver lining. I may be procrastinating but I am helping and spending some quality time with a friend.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That'd be helpful⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I love this type of bonding with friends and used to do it a lot. The problem is you have to live or be kinda close by, but I guess that is true for any less formal meetup. I guess the furthest away you are the more “a thing” the meetup must be and the duration longer.

  In any case I love do errands with friends and even go help out with something. Even though I don’t have time and energy for my stuff I feel like energy for hanging out with friends doing errands como from a different bucket.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That'd be helpful⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the person is not implying that by going with the person doing an errand you also have to spend money. You are going as a companion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's a whole genre! ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  He has a number of good movies. I guess because the most popular means visible movies are his slop comides for the whole family his “real” movies kinda goes under the radar.

  Uncut gems is a masterpiece but I wanna mention Spaceman because it is fantastic. It is kinda the opposite of Uncut gems, if the first is like fast pace on the edge of you seat that you spend the whole movie holding your breath that shit is about to hit the fan, Spaceman is super slow and introspective, big great nonetheless.

  If it is possible yes, but sometimes it is not or the other options are even worst.

  Some banks the website works only if you install some kernel modules. Worst than use the cellphone app.

  “I fear not the wizard who has practiced 10,000 spells once, but I fear the wizard who has practiced one spell 10,000 times.”

  Actually Harry also used Spectrum Patronum alot (aka, the deus ex machina spell that can do anything and give you a blowjob at the same time)

  So he had 2 go to spells.

  Then you will “love” to know that they can still charge the card after they have swiped it. I was floored when I noticed it. So you give the card and then they come back with your card and a new bill that has a place for you to write down how much tip you wanna add. You do not give your card again, you just leave the paper in the table and they will add the amount to what they are gonna charge your in your cc. This would not fly in my country, I am actually shocked that cc fraud is not more widespread in the US with how “low security” it all seems. Once I when to buy something and I head forgotten my cc PIN (because now always using contactless pay and such", the person handling the register told me I can skip it, and sure enough, there was an option on the machine to skip entering the PIN. I guess the PIN stuff is new in the US and people are not used to IT so it is not even a red flag to say that you do not know your own PIN and they even have the case built-in in the software. Shocking.

  Mine too, it is kinda annoying with a terminal full screen because it crops at least half the first character when it is shifted left, and I use It it in full screen 100% of the time. But still not annoying enough for me to do anything about it.

  I guess is also a releave every time I noticed, it means my OLED is fine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WHAT IF 😮⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I cannot get over the fact that that is not how whatsapp looks when someone sends multiple messages. This is the chat list screen that shows your recent chats. This image is like multiple contacts with the same name and image (but different phone number) sending the same message.

  And it would be so simple if it was the correct chat screen with multiple messages from the person with each its own time stamp and stuff

  What is the rules 1&2 ?

  But yeah, that tracks, I guess is the opposite end of confident people that will think that others are into them why would they not be? When we don’t think much of ourselves we more likely assume that a compliment or even someone hitting on you is just someone being nice, they “obviously” would not be into me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries to impress a woman at the gym⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That was also my experience, I grew my beard a couple of time, just to see how long it goes and also laziness. I never cared with specific beard products or trimming it and stuff. I washed it with the same head&shoulders I use for my hair. In my country is normal to great with a kiss in the cheeks so it was a somewhat common occurrence that a woman would feel and comment how soft it was. But that was it, their are impressed by the softness not the looks of how long it was, this was only guys, guys were impressed by the size of the bears and all. That is not to say that woman necessarily prefer shaved face, in my experience mostly (in my country that is) prefer a trimmed beard. I guess it is more mature or mainly. My now wife certainly preferred me to just trim down the beard instead of shaving it.
