  Right? It’s crazy to think these kinds of people exist, but they are real and they make decisions for other people.

  “The [AI] safety stuff is more visceral to me after a weekend of vibe hacking,” Lemkin said. I explicitly told it eleven times in ALL CAPS not to do this. I am a little worried about safety now.

  Why is it “dickriding” to point out this has been a standard practice for all competitors for over 20 years?

  I don’t understand why you immediately go to the extreme and think this is me defending them? If anything, I’m saying it’s all bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo’s Anti-Consumer Anti-Piracy Measures Also Reduce The Value Of The Switch 2⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This has been a thing since 2005 or so, why are we still surprised again?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo’s Anti-Consumer Anti-Piracy Measures Also Reduce The Value Of The Switch 2⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s a problem of the US law or lack of consumer protections compared to UK/EU, not because it’s Nintendo. All the other companies have this too.

  it can suspend all kinds of services on your console, up to and including bricking it completely.

  No, just online services.

  Xbox and PlayStation have the same terms & conditions. Why is Nintendo being singled out?

  Xbox:

  your Xbox console (…) may stop working permanently

  PlayStation:

  the permanent (…) disablement of (…) PlayStation Devices

  I’m not against the message but this is a uniqlo ad/partnership, just saying.

  I keep a spreadsheet of Water in games, and OoT is at the top next to Super Mario 64 and Galaxy.

  Haha this is really interesting! What else is on the list? Have you played titles such as Sea of Thieves or Subnautica?

  I had to use Google but I put the quote in quotation marks “At this there was uproar for some minutes” and searched for books only.

  Figured it was unique enough of a sentence to provide only a few hits, and there was only one!

  Stop moving the goalposts. Nobody cares about the votes themselves

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Is Already Punishing Switch 2 Users Over Piracy ‘Suspicions’⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you see personal insults you should report the comment. Instances and communities have rules. Downvotes aren’t insults though

  I was sitting at like, -2 when they made that comment

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Is Already Punishing Switch 2 Users Over Piracy ‘Suspicions’⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I was thinking the same, first few votes were down lol. Now you seem to catch the fire for pointing it out. Hope you care as much about votes as I do

  Follow the link in the article to find out what really happened: www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch2/…/my2iylo/

  I also posted this in another threads a few days ago:

  Nah, the OP of one reddit thread admitted he tried more than just his backups:

  • Dude is a prolific poster in Switch hacking communities and he used an account which he previously used with a hacked Switch 1.

  • He admits trying the migswitch with the Switch 2 and it starting downloading something.

  • They got an online ban, so offline games and such still work.

  You can agree or disagree whether piracy should be legal or whether backup copies are permitted (depends on jurisdiction), but this dude obviously played with fire and got burnt.

  TL;DR: don’t be stupid and get banned for breaking ToS (whether you agree with it or not)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A couple of Switch 2 owners are already reporting expanded back panels, Nintendo investigates possible causes⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s always a percentage of devices that will show defects, especially the launch wave. QA can never get 100% of units passed.

  Does anyone remember the PS5 issues with the disc drive, rest mode, coil whine etc during launch?

  Now it this turns into a pattern / widespread issue I’m ready to jump on the bandwagon, but this is not out of the ordinary.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spread that lightbulb⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, almost. They use the moon for navigation like we used to use stars on the open sea for navigation.

  Light bulbs mess this up because suddenly after a bit of travel the “moon” is in a wildly different place than before, tripping them up because they can’t process why that happened.

  I may have missed this but why are your torturing yourself with the 360 version? Is it nostalgia? Are you secretly a masochist? I’m intrigued.

  I remember my brother playing this mod and I was just amused at the sheer complexity of it. I love Factorio, Satisfactory and the like, but idk if I could do it in Minecraft

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lies of P is getting difficulty options to make the Soulslike more accessible⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So much this! I love a challenging game but sometimes you just want to experience the game without the frustration, and lowering the difficulty for yourself has zero impact on people who prefer the original or higher difficulty

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Day 305 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games l've been playing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hahaha that sounds like classic REPO. I’m really amazed by the simplicity of the game and how long it stays fun, especially for the price

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Square Enix considered ending Final Fantasy 11 in 2024, but player interest was high enough to keep it alive even after 20+ years⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ending meaning

  with the game shifting into a so-called maintenance mode, where only system upkeep would be performed.

  So not really pulling the plug, just no new story developments and updates

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Day 305 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games l've been playing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah the vents are a fun addition, albeit somewhat slow as you have to crawl through them.

  There was one vent that took me through a small alcove with dangerous goop, to another vent that took me to one of those horses. Safe to say we didn’t get it down without damaging it considering we were up way high and that thing is heavy af.

  Still, fun times

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t say no, I say yes and put my discomfort for anything aside, other people’s wants are more important than my feeling

  I don’t know why no one is mentioning this, but your feelings are valid and important. Assuming you extend this to people you’ve just met, eventually someone will either take advantage of this or think you like them because you don’t say no, even when uncomfortable.

  Don’t do that to yourself. Whatever you did (as a kid), you don’t deserve that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Day 305 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games l've been playing⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree that some more modes would be nice, but bear in mind the version is still 0.1.2 so there’s plenty more to come, it’s just not finished yet.

  I do like the new map, although I miss opening doors on that one haha

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Partner has ADD, do I have misophonia?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Partner is also suffering from depression so every freaking time I begged to please turn the tv off, it’s just ended in a 30 minute therapy session at home on how I can improve myself.

  Eh, what? What does being depressed have to do with you asking to turn off the TV? I feel like they are using this against you, but there’s not a lot of info to go by.

  Perhaps a solution would be to get them headphones, too.

  It’s not. OP only shares links from this specific website, leading me to believe they are just here to push their own site without checking whether it was actually already posted
