- Comment on The specter of a GTA 6 delay haunts the games industry: 'Some companies are going to tank' if they guess wrong, says analyst 4 days ago:
Well, to be fair, you don’t know you’re getting it for that. As far as I’ve seen, they haven’t announced the release price yet. And a lot of studios are hoping that Rockstar will take the fall for being the first $100 game so publishers can start charging used console prices for AAA games from then on.
Either way though, I won’t be paying anything for it.

big games get delayed, a lot
And yet so many of them still suck at launch.

This is just my opinion, but I think you probably should have a talk with your SO and make it clear you would like a little more “us” time.

good point, what am I saying?

This seems like something they should probably see a therapist about? That doesn’t seem like the behavior of a healthy mind.
- Comment on Three years later, the Steam Deck has dominated handheld PC gaming 3 weeks ago:
There’s a reason for that, and it’s more than the usual Valve fanboyism. The Deck is objectively a better user experience than the alternatives, Steam Input is a masterpiece, Linux runs games better than Windows now (thanks, Gabe), and the community around it is friendly and super helpful to everyone.
Even a device with better specs will have trouble surpassing the Deck if they can’t cover these areas as well.

Anybody can be sued, for any reason. Even if the local cops won’t do anything, there’s always the FBI. And even if they won’t do anything, there’s always civil penalties. You could lose everything you own.
But IDK why you’re bothering to defend yourself to me. I don’t give a shit if you do something stupid and it ruins you.

How about try? Maybe even get off the couch? Oh, what if they came out and actually didn’t help Trump get his picks approved?
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
It’s called illegal, at least in the US. That’s identity theft, and if he ever used that false persona to enrich himself in any way, it’s fraud. Probably a few other crimes as well, but I’m not a lawyer so that’s just the obvious ones.
- Comment on How is the Stock Market keeping it's value after *points to everything*? 4 weeks ago:
Because the stock market is pure fantasy that doesn’t have anything to do with the economy?

Sounds like you maybe had FSR on.
- Comment on meirl 5 weeks ago:
It’s not complicated. The Usenet provider gives you access to Usenet, and the indexer lets you search it for whatever you want. You then download it with a Usenet client. You can do it manually, much the same way as you download a torrent from any site. if you’ve downloaded a torrent before, you would be able to manage Usenet with no issues at all.
Or, if you’re willing to spend a few hours setting up the Servarr apps on an old computer like I did, you can automate the whole thing. I recommend this option, because you do it once and then you have a seamless way to fetch files from torrent and Usenet both without ever doing anything more than typing in the name of the show/movie. The Servarr apps search for, download, and import media into my library so that I can stream them to all my devices using Jellyfin (or Plex, if you like corpo apps). They even fetch proper subtitles for everything, and I also have it set up so after I’ve watched an episode, it’s deleted to make room for something else. It’s as easy as Netflix, at a fraction of the cost.

I mean, if you’re using Discord, then you’re probably not the kind of person to be bothered by this anyway.
- Comment on meirl 5 weeks ago:
Hmm, pay $20 a month apiece for 20 different shitty streaming services that use ads, or $6/month for Usenet access and $1/month for indexer access, and get every movie and TV show for nothing extra…
Choices, choices.

Why would you apologize for a test not going well? That’s the whole point of a test.

No, that would probably be a strawman instead.

That’s not an ad hominem. Don’t use words you don’t know the meaning to.
If somebody insults you while also attacking an argument you made, that’s not an ad hominem. An ad hominem is specifically only when someone uses a personal attack to attempt to directly refute your argument. And even then, just because something is a logical fallacy, doesn’t mean it’s a bad argument. That’s called the Fallacy fallacy. Good arguments can still include logical fallacies such as ad hominems.
For example, if I say Kanye West is wrong about Jews being untrustworthy because he’s a shitty person and a Nazi, that’s an ad hominem. But it’s also true. The personal attack takes nothing away from the validity of my argument.

I mean, rules are just guidelines. If you’re that shitty of a person, there’s really nothing stopping the admins of .world from just banning you anyway.

Yes, that’s the one. It works by just using Javascript to check that the browser is OK.

I’m a simple guy. If a website I visit uses any kind of captcha other than Cloudflare’s Turnstile, then I close that website and don’t use it ever again. I’m not interested in wasting five minutes picking which squares have busses in them because ReCaptcha has decided I have to do the captcha 200 times.
