- Comment on Why people consistently vote against their own interests to benefit the rich? 2 days ago:
Because the rich pretend like it’s in peoples interest, people believe them because oh they are rich they must know what they are talking about, and because people are stupid.
- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 5 days ago:
Technically yes, you’d have to find an exploit for your TV that allows for installing your own OS.
It’s not super feasible but it’s technically possible.
- Comment on What good thing just happened in your life? 6 days ago:
It’s always good to be valued, congrats!
- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 6 days ago:
Yes, something like that would work. The stock OS would still be on the TV but as long as you don’t connect the TV to WiFi it should be fine.
- Comment on What good thing just happened in your life? 6 days ago:
Congrats! That sounds like actually meaningful work.
- Comment on What good thing just happened in your life? 6 days ago:
That’s awesome news, congrats!
- Comment on What good thing just happened in your life? 6 days ago:
Wow, 2 interviews in 11 months is rough. Last year it took me 5 months, I’d say around 20-30 interviews, and 6 years of experience as a dev.
- Comment on Woke up today to find out my demo has 100% Positive rating (from 10/10 reviews) 1 week ago:
I laughed way too hard at this lmao
- Comment on Guy Who Taunted Nintendo About Streaming Pirated Switch Games Before Release Now Faces $7.5 Million Lawsuit 1 week ago:
I mean, they are located in Japan, so it’s not like Yakuza don’t exist.
- Comment on what should one archive in a fascist regime? 2 weeks ago:
Honestly, everything. Any TV show, movie, documentary, book, or hell even porn that could be deemed as valuable or important in any way as I could see any one of these things becoming outlawed with such a regime. Hell, Canada’s new prime minister (99% chance to win in the next election apparently) is going to try for putting porn behind digital IDs (despite claiming to be against digital IDs before if I remember correctly) which is just going to be a privacy nightmare unfortunately.
- Comment on what should one archive in a fascist regime? 2 weeks ago:
Canada will do the same once Pierre takes over.
- Comment on How is it that "protecting basic democracy and the rule of law, and not crowning a criminal dictator" wasn't even on the chart?! 2 weeks ago:
Also, there were plenty of people who were never going to vote for a woman, no matter what.
- Comment on Linux hits exactly 2% user share on the October 2024 Steam Survey 2 weeks ago:
There are dozens of us!
- Comment on if you quit a job you didn't like or was toxic, didn't the financial hit scare you? 3 weeks ago:
Well yeah, that’s why some people stick in toxic jobs unfortunately.
- Comment on Game Freak has been allegedly hacked, with source codes for Pokemon games reportedly leaked 5 weeks ago:
Is the source code for HG/SS the latest or is it from an earlier build?
- Comment on Game Freak has been allegedly hacked, with source codes for Pokemon games reportedly leaked 5 weeks ago:
No other company aggressively goes after its fans quite like Nintendo does. Nintendo have not only gone after fan projects made by fans showing their love for their beloved games, but also gone after community-run tournaments that in no way affect Nintendo, etc. Nintendo are pretty awful.
- Comment on Game Freak has been allegedly hacked, with source codes for Pokemon games reportedly leaked 5 weeks ago:
Gen 4 was peak IMO, both the new Pokemon as well as the best remakes ever made.
- Comment on Game Freak has been allegedly hacked, with source codes for Pokemon games reportedly leaked 5 weeks ago:
That has to be a real wake up call to Nintendo.
That’s optimistic thinking. Nintendo doesn’t learn, they just bulldoze.
- Comment on Game Freak has been allegedly hacked, with source codes for Pokemon games reportedly leaked 5 weeks ago:
They really, really, really, really earned it.
- Comment on Steam's new disclaimer reminds everyone that you don't actually own your games, GOG moves in for the killshot: Its offline installers 'cannot be taken away from you' 5 weeks ago:
I think it is fair. When you buy games through GOG, you get the offline installer. Nobody can take that away from you.
When you buy games through Steam, you can only install them via the Steam client. If the Steam servers are offline, you cannot install your games. In theory, some games are without any DRM, and you can just zip them up, but even then that doesn’t always work, and you shouldn’t have to.
Providing an offline installer that works no matter what is as good as “owning” the game IMO, even if “technically” you are just purchasing a license to use the game.
- Comment on How do I avoid enshitification of my keyboard and mouse 1 month ago:
Honestly, I do kind of agree with what you said tbh, you’re not wrong lol
- Comment on How do I avoid enshitification of my keyboard and mouse 1 month ago:
You are now resorting to personal attacks (which is against the rules) yet you are blaming Linux users for… using Linux? Suggesting it as a free alternative that people can try out at any time?
I don’t get it.
- Comment on How do I avoid enshitification of my keyboard and mouse 1 month ago:
Did you ever think that you hate Linux because that’s what you have decided you are going to do, and not because you should and not because people are making you?
- Comment on Palworld faces the difficult choice of whether to become a live-service game or stay buy-to-play, PocketPair’s CEO says 2 months ago:
They should have added a battle tower, that’d add a lot more replay value and keep people coming back years later.
Source: Pokemon games like the DS generation of Pokemon games.
- Comment on Seriously, what the f*** is keeping Donald Trump in this presidential race? 2 months ago:
Very stupid Americans, mostly.
- Comment on Do lesbians like boobs as much as straight guys? 2 months ago:
Doesn’t mean a gay guy is gonna go straight because of some nice tits, but he can appreciate them erotically.
Is that actually the case though? Wouldn’t you have to be straight or bi to appreciate them erotically?
- Comment on How to decide what kind of controller one should purchase? 2 months ago:
My PS4 controller doesn’t even pair to my Linux desktop, I’ve tried just about everything you can think of but it only works via USB cable. My Xbox 360 controller, Xbox One X, and Xbox Series X controllers all work on Linux just fine and work better on Linux than they would on Windows thanks to xpadneo.
- Comment on Why do big corporations get to claim losses, but small businesses can't? 2 months ago:
No, I’m saying large corporations pay off governments, which is absolutely true.
- Comment on How do I alleviate bitterness due to lack of intimacy? 2 months ago:
It’s true that the more you want something, the harder it can be to obtain lol
Sometimes you just have to be zen about it and then it can happen naturally.
- Comment on Why do big corporations get to claim losses, but small businesses can't? 2 months ago:
Because big corporations are better off at paying governments than smaller businesses.
