Couldn’t even spring for a higher frame rate the cheap bastards.

Well you need to work on your communication skills as much as you do on your tone then.
You clearly are more focused on being argumentative and obtuse rather than engaging the argument that skills need to be developed, before you assign all the work to a machine that automates the process, but errors can and will occur.
Enjoy spending all your life entering every discussion predisposed to anger and argument, I’ve got better things to do with my time.
- Comment on AI Eroded Doctors' Ability to Spot Cancer Within Months in Study 1 week ago:
It’s an analogy. It’s referring to the original comment where people don’t have the skills to recognise how or why something doesn’t work. The core problem is without that fundamental understanding of what you’re trying to do, you don’t know why something doesn’t work.

If your use a calculator, and it gives you back a number that can’t possibly be right, you know there’s an error somewhere along the line.
If you’ve never done multiplication before, you won’t have that innate sense of what looks right or wrong.

I miss community servers terribly.
- Comment on Humble Choice this month contains Persona 5 Royal, My Time at Sandrock, Lil Gator Game, more 2 weeks ago:
I first played it when I was like 30, I think that it doesn’t rely on either age or medium enough to ruin the experience. It’s not perfect, the storyline can be a touch flimsy here and there, but the core experience is amazing.
Also the runtime is like 120 hours. Still a big commitment.

- Comment on Indie gaming's only three genres have inevitably converged into grimdark Balatro with a whimsical egg idiot 4 weeks ago:
I’m not getting on your case here, I just think you may not have exposed yourself to a wide variety of indie titles. If your opinion is that independent studios are worth dismissing because I don’t like that some of them follow gene design traits, it’s a fair conclusion.
We’re living in a golden age of indie games right now, painting all of them with the same brush is doing yourself a massive disservice in my opinion.

It sounds like you haven’t had much exposure to them? In order my last 5 played indie games are: -4 player coop rock climbing -Cozy Horror game where you’re alone doing menial tasks in the Swiss Alps, there are also aliens -Oldschool roguelike adventure -Shoot goblins and cultists -Logic puzzle akin to Minesweeper

Sort of, your processing power does decrease, meaning you’ll likely do a worse job of putting what you’re seeing into the appropriate context.
- Comment on Elder Scrolls Online devs detail “inhumane” Microsoft layoffs as Xbox expects the “carcass of workers” to “keep shipping award-winning games” 4 weeks ago:
How do we live in a world where being a major financial boon for your company isn’t enough, this is bullshit.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
As I said, it’s not mandatory. It’s a personal choice, not much different to a piercing, tattoo or bodymod in my mind. I don’t particularly care for any of those, but it’s not my body that it’s being done to either, so my feelings are largely irrelevant.
Beyond that, the motivations of any other person are going to be somewhat alien, because people cannot truely know or communicate experiences beyond a very surface level. You or I cannot fully understand, because we haven’t experienced it. We have to trust that stuff like this is what they want, because that is what they’re telling us with the limited communication abilities humans have.
- Comment on Anon is Illiterate 4 weeks ago:
Brains gravitate to the quickest easiest dopamine responses, and will ignore things that give rewards slower. ADHD brains are particularly bad for this.
I have the exact same issue. If I was able to give up scrolling social media, I’m sure I’d be back on the books again inside of a few weeks. We’ll just have to wait for the great collapse.
- Comment on Anon is Illiterate 4 weeks ago:
God I’m remembering in Hunter X Hunter how there were entire spreads detailing complex rulesets for world building, and they legit felt like the silmarilion at times.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
Are you talking the difference between something like cross dressing and being trans? I’ll dive into it as I’ve had this on my mind recently.
My understanding is the main focus of being trans is the change in gender identity. Biological sex doesn’t really come into it, it’s all about social roles, expectations etc. A man can wear woman’s clothing and still be a man after all.
I can’t really speak for people’s experiences when it comes to them not physically matching their views on their gender. It’s a deeply individual thing I imagine. Physical changes, hormones etc are not required to be trans, though they can be a part of it.
The point that caught me for a bit was my views on gender equality. I was of the opinion that gender/sex stereotypes shouldn’t really define people, but that clashed with the idea that people sometimes desire the stereotypes that go along with gender.
It’s a tricky thing to want both true equality but also respect differences in gender, because in some ways they aren’t always compatible. But we aren’t the result of our ideals so much as we are the result of our upbringings, and gender is a large part of our identity. It’s baked into us, girls want pretty dresses, boys want power tools, and you will be treated different based on what you present as, regardless of how bullshit that might be.
The way I see it, it’s only fair to say fuck it, you can be whichever gender you want. I still think stereotypes are something we should move away from ultimately, but that’s a long road that I’ll never live to see the end of, and if someone can be happier today, I don’t see why that’s a problem.

- Comment on Linux users: Are we over-reliant on Steam? 1 month ago:
A touch, yes. I’m much happier being reliant on steam than Microsoft. They’re not incredibly indispensible either, you can do this stuff without them.
- Comment on we are creators 1 month ago:
I’m almost there with you, the advent of the smart phone and social media are pretty big game changers. Maybe not for the better, but they do change the game.

Funnily enough though they’re also potentially losing desktop users to Linux.

Visualise playing Doom in your head. It’s free, and the cops can’t stop you.
- Comment on Anon turns on raytracing 1 month ago:
No you’ve pretty much hit it on the head there. The higher ups want it shipped yesterday, if you can ship it without fixing those performance issues they’re likely going to make you do that.

Continue the 2008 storyline you cowards
- Comment on Blue Prince - Have you played it? How blown is your mind? 2 months ago:
I loved it, but I had frustrations. I think there are two almost perfect games in here, the tile based mansion builder and the myst like mansion explorer. Somehow I found that putting them both together resulted in a slightly lesser experience than either of them functioning alone. It’s a very minor blemish on a fantastic experience though.
- Comment on Why are you here and not on Reddit? 2 months ago:
External app support being killed on Reddit. I primarily operate on vibes, and those apps being nuked really made me feel like it was going to just keep getting worse. So far, I feel justified.
- Comment on Why do low framerates *feel* so much worse on modern video games? 2 months ago:
It depends on what you’re running, but often if the frame rate is rock solid and consistent it helps it feel a lot less stuttery. Fallout games are not known for their stability and well functioning unfortunately.
For comparison, deltarune came out a few days ago, that’s locked to 30 fps. Sure it’s not a full 3D game or anything, but there’s a lot of complex motion in the battles and it’s not an issue at all. Compared to something like bloodborne or the recent Zeldas, even after getting used to the frame rate they feel awful because they’re stuttering all the damn time.
- Comment on Elden Ring Nightreign’s Massive Steam Launch Tarnished by 'Mixed' User Reviews Over Lack of Duos Co-Op, Voice Chat 2 months ago:
Oh for sure, I don’t think less of people for these kind of situations. More at the state where it’s unfortunate but also interesting. We keep seeing these situations happen with varying amounts of justification from people, it’s interesting to try to understand what’s happening.
- Comment on Elden Ring Nightreign’s Massive Steam Launch Tarnished by 'Mixed' User Reviews Over Lack of Duos Co-Op, Voice Chat 2 months ago:
I don’t think it’s obtuse or anything, this stuff isn’t hard to find out before buying. I think it’s probably closer to people being afraid of fromsoft doing something different, but don’t have words to articulate it, so they express it in other ways.
- Comment on Anon gains a superpower 2 months ago:
I can’t remember where I heard this, but I recall that the wizards were basically constantly holding back their power as part of their existence in middle earth. They could do wild stuff, but the idea is to not interfere with the progression of the world too much, much like a star trek crew
- Comment on Anon gains a superpower 2 months ago:
It definitely tells them what they want to hear, but I don’t think it’s lying. It could totally do everything it says. However it will just straight up yeet itself at the first opportunity to get back to Sauron.
- Comment on ‘Elden Ring’ Movie in the Works From ’Civil War’ Director Alex Garland, A24 2 months ago:
In the volcano area, I found a random message in the middle of nowhere, that simply read :
“Seek the Elden Ring Or something…”
To this day I’m convinced it’s the most practical summary of the game and the player motivations. It also made me giggle a lot for no reason.
