How are people meant to have a good view of the political landscape and show intent to vote for a different party when said parties don’t get any coverage? Lol what a joke
- Comment on Borderlands 4 Launches To Mostly Negative Steam Reviews Over Performance Issues And Crashing 2 days ago:
Well most review sites give it high scores with the negatives being primarily the performance so at least this time there might be a good game in there somewhere underneath all those shader compilation stutters

He cannot be outvoted, reform is a corporation and he holds the majority share.
- Comment on The sheer amount of websites that are completely unusable without JavaScript 2 weeks ago:
But they’re not pdf/e-pub. I’m sorry, I’m not trying to be mean but people not wanting scripting on their sites are a niche inside a niche, so in terms of prioritising fixing things that’s a very small audience with a very small ROI if done they might require a huge rewrite. It’s just not financially feasible for not much of a reason other than puritan ones.
- Comment on 4chan and Kiwi Farms Sue the UK Over its Age Verification Law 2 weeks ago:
What are you talking about?! Apple was forced to follow EU regulations and allow side loading, they complied by only making it available in the EU. “This is wrong” and you’re just spouting nonsense. If I want to do business in your country I need to follow your country’s regulations, this includes customer and worker protections.
- Comment on 4chan and Kiwi Farms Sue the UK Over its Age Verification Law 2 weeks ago:
Convenient you’ve specifically not quoted the circumstance in which that should apply. This is companies which serve UK customers in the UK, the fact their servers are offshore and the company is offshore doesn’t matter, they’re doing business in the UK by being made available there and thus must be bound to those laws.
- Comment on 4chan and Kiwi Farms Sue the UK Over its Age Verification Law 2 weeks ago:
Yeah man they have an obligation(duty) to uphold British law when dealing with British citizens, how’s that hard to grasp.
- Comment on 4chan and Kiwi Farms Sue the UK Over its Age Verification Law 2 weeks ago:
Your original comment was about the UK overreaching and policing companies from outside the UK how to do things. You got a reply on how the gdpr does the same thing (please, no one actually implied the legislation itself starts sending out emails, have the basic decency to understand the implication that it’s the EU and UK through GDPR that are pursuing things legally).
It’s not possible for the EU to fine companies in non-EU countries. They could issue a fine but they have no power to enforce or collect the fine.
I don’t know why you seek to make the distinction between “fining” and “issuing a fine”, the point was the UK is not the only one trying to do it. Whether it’s successful or not is not the point. Also they can totally enforce the fine by restricting those businesses from doing business within their territory until they comply. I don’t know how you could get it more wrong.

Fine companies in other countries for failing to uphold the law when working with citizens protected by said law.
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 2 weeks ago:
After reading most of these comments I’ll have to say this comment resonated the most with me. It’s exhausting to always be the one who needs to put in effort to talk to new people, and then you need to maintain it pretty much one sidedly as well, you end up just giving up on it and looking more for good friends to rely on than romantic things.
I’ve heard from female friends that there are women also dealing with this so it’s not a uniquely male thing, but social norms have sadly made it so and it really gets to you as a guy when you’re not also being pursued by people. I’ve seen some nice clips tangential to this asking women when was the last time they bought flowers for a guy and some of them couldn’t think of an instance, it’s rough out there, and unless you’re at the top of your game it’s a huge struggle, and with the economy as it is a lot of people people rightfully are, but as you say women are usually better trained to work together on this stuff, whereas guys largely aren’t and suffer alone as a consequence. I’m lucky to have some good male and female friends I can open up to, but I definitely feel like the exception on that.

You should find a cheap steam controller :p

Ah yeah I see. Tbh I rarely use it myself but i only play pc games at my desk so I can always use my mouse.
On gyro it’s rare to find controllers without one these days I think unless it’s like a super cheap 10 gbp controller

- Comment on Why aren't there many controllers with the ability to physically swap out the ABXY layout between Xbox/PC and Nintendo layout? 4 weeks ago:
Yeah I’m eyeing the controller op mentioned, 3 trigger buttons + 2 back pedals that I can customize via steam input is the dream. Most 3rd party controllers only let you map to existing buttons on the controller
- Comment on Why aren't there many controllers with the ability to physically swap out the ABXY layout between Xbox/PC and Nintendo layout? 4 weeks ago:
I know this is a software solution but if this is for steam there’s an option under controller settings to use a Nintendo layout. I can appreciate the issue more though when you predominantly grew up playing a different platform from the one you’re playing now
- Comment on Why aren't there many controllers with the ability to physically swap out the ABXY layout between Xbox/PC and Nintendo layout? 4 weeks ago:
It also has a switch to toggle the triggers to either let you slowly pull on them or act as buttons, comes with some longer sticks as an option, and an instant disconnect button. I bought it a while back and the build quality is pretty decent, and looks pretty.
- Comment on Why aren't there many controllers with the ability to physically swap out the ABXY layout between Xbox/PC and Nintendo layout? 4 weeks ago:
It’s probably just more costly on the manufacturing side. More molds, more pieces to work with, modular structure etc etc. I also think it’s not as impactful, not sure about you but I’ve developed enough muscle memory to not even look at the front facing buttons, as long as I have Xbox button layouts in games, even with playstation controllers lol
- Comment on Why aren't there many controllers with the ability to physically swap out the ABXY layout between Xbox/PC and Nintendo layout? 4 weeks ago:
I’ve had the complete opposite experience. So many third party controllers offer hall effect joysticks, macros, back pedals, options for linear or button triggers, etc at a much lower cost than first party controllers. The only thing they’re missing is the dual sense motors but that’s proprietary.
I recommend checking out the 8bitdo controllers linked in the article, and the FANTECH WGP14-V2 which you can find on AliExpress.

Took me ages to find a snippet that has a manual dark mode toggle but in a way that works with prefer-color-scheme so by default it inherits your settings but you can overwrite it… It’s just not a priority for a lot of people or they’re ok with the site flashing or something.
