- Comment on After years of holding out hope, 2024 was the year I finally gave up on BioWare 1 week ago:
At least for Dragon Age (2009) was in development since at least November 2002, 5 years before EA purchased Bioware.
You could also look at DICE, and the absolute shitshow every Battlefield has been since they were purchased by EA.
- Comment on Technologist: 'Fining Big Tech isn't working, make them give away illegally trained LLMs as public domain' 2 weeks ago:
Not to mention that the rest of the outcome of that is being handled rather poorly
- Comment on IRIS²: the new satellite constellation aimed at ensuring communications autonomy for the EU is launched today 3 weeks ago:
Would be curious what the carbon footprint of new satellites are compared to the carbon footprint of new transatlantic cables and radio towers… 🤔
- Comment on Balatro is rated PEGI-18 and Among Us inspires disgruntled people with medical needs. What other video games have been secretly eroding the very fabric of American society? 3 weeks ago:
Him selling it was probably the best thing to happen to Minecraft.
Imagine if JK Rolling didn’t just license Harry Potter, but actually sold the IP
- Comment on Is there any (single player playable) game under $10 or equivalent which has made you point any go "ha" or given you an equivalent feeling because it was that enjoyable for every moment you played it? 3 weeks ago:
The void items are pretty good (and the lunar items are pretty bad), but i did enjoy the new DLC - I didn’t really experience many issues, but figured it would be worth explaining that it’s expected to get a lot of fixes in the coming months and might be worth waiting to see how fixed before buying.
Definitely a great coop game, along with Heroes of Hammerwatch

Risk of Rain 2 is amazing, though one thing to hold on to is that the newest DLC had some issues (amazing that a game so old is still getting attention) that you might want to wait to get fixed (since it still affects the base game).
- Comment on FromSoftware is making more Elden Ring after all, with the co-op Elden Ring: Night Reign 4 weeks ago:
Well, they said they were done making DLC/content for Elden Ring 1 — they didn’t say anything about a new game that you need to purchase.

- Comment on Social media users probably won't read beyond this headline, researchers say 1 month ago:
I wish I could remember the article, but years ago there was some article with an outrageous headline, and the entire article was how nobody reads the article.
- Comment on Valve must address swastikas and other hate on Steam, writes US senator in a letter to Gabe Newell 1 month ago:
Also have noticed the “anti-woke” “curator”.
It’s simply amazing. Imagine not buying a game because the protagonist is a woman. If you don’t want to play Control, you’re missing out.

I really wish fire departments would do this.
I’m not giving Fascist Musk and Zuckernazi more power by creating an account to view whether my house is going to burn down from the growing wave of wildfires.

Perhaps they’ll start using the fediverse…
- Comment on Taylor Swift Fans Are Leaving X for Bluesky After Trump’s Election 1 month ago:
Email does not have issues finding emails.
Ah now see…
I’ve certainly had issues with desktop outlook finding emails that mobile outlook recieved minutes ago. But now pertinent is that is only true for modern email - and only true for established email - it’s why everyone suggests not hosting your own email.
But, hopefully that experience continues to improve so it’s not a concern for any longer
- Comment on Taylor Swift Fans Are Leaving X for Bluesky After Trump’s Election 1 month ago:
Unfortunate since people are confused on the whole federated aspect (which… who hasn’t used email? 🤦🏻♂️), but also the interactions are much more rewarding since they’re genuine and don’t feel like an algorithm (since there is no algorithm).

Absolutely no way this doesn’t explicitly target certain groups of people and end up in a lawsuit.
