  Shit, you’re right. That was an awful time reference for the joke… it might actually release before the Oblivion remake.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remaster is real - Eurogamer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Now we get 11 years of Oblivion re-releases!

  I guess TESVI is already doomed, probably won’t release until after the ice-caps melt.

  They all wish they were as clever, funny, and efficient as GLaDOS

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Suggestions for a top down game that is genuinely different to all the others?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  What actual genre do you like to play? Might get some more relevant recommendations. Otherwise, top-down is just a POV and there are a ton of genres that have been made this way.

  • Factorio - Factory Building
  • Door Kickers - Tactical CQB
  • Dwarf Fortress - Roguelite Town Management
  • The Battle for Wesnoth - Turn-based RPG
  • GTA1/2/London 1969 - The best GTAs
  • FTL - Roguelite space adventure. Real-time with pause.

  You don’t need to hope, our bodies don’t last forever. He will die.

  The question of “when” is where the uncertainty comes in.

  Awesome! Definitely check out all of Nerve’s stuff. They got a pretty big back catalogue, and the energy varies.

  Well hot damn, didn’t know about it

  I dunno if this is what you’re looking for, but clowncore may be close?

  I don’t know for sure if it was ever a thing in the USA. A cursory search only showed mention of Europe offering that repair. I didn’t even bother checking and just went straight for the hall-effect replacement sticks when I had joy-cons that drifted, probably a bunch of other people in that same boat.

  IMO, the profits from this would still come even if they offer repairs. I’d venture to guess many out-of-the-loop parents would just buy the replacements ‘cause they probably think their kid is abusing it somehow. The good ol’ “sigh 'n buy” phenomenon to keep the kiddos entertained.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con may have the same stick drift problem as original Switch⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Let’s hope gulikit quickly puts out a hall-effect mod for the new versions (or the new versions still use the same joystick module as the original)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con may have the same stick drift problem as original Switch⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Of course it will, they make too much money off people buying replacements. Since the games also got an increase in price, I expect the joy-cons bought separately will also be marked up by a non-trivial margin.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there any games you don't play as it was intended to be played? If so, what game and how?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is pretty much the basis for the entire speed-running community. Maybe not totally different (like walking around as a peaceful tourist in Hitman), but definitely not utilizing mechanics as intended

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cloudflare turns AI against itself with endless maze of irrelevant facts⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We should throw eggs at the devs’ houses 100%. Ask them why they hate their fellow humans so much they would contribute code and bugfixes to this kind of software.

  Then we throw molotovs at the C-suites’ houses. We should just do this second part across the board, let’s not stop at AI companies.

  I got my Kobo eReader literally days ago, phew

  Sadly, this is most likely 100% correct. People at doge are specifically scraping sites for words and phrases like that and transgender to cull the information surrounding it.

  Fuck yea, it’s emulating the idea of going to your buddy’s house and being stuck with the weird MadCatz controller.

  I love this idea.

  lmao, YouTube tells me this video may be inappropriate for some users. Maybe there’s cussing or something in it, but what the fuck.

  Once you get the hang of Markdown, you’ll enjoy it far more than Reddit’s shitty syntax. You’ve got way more options here since they implemented a well-tested and widely used system.

  oh shit, I did not even consider that could happen. I uh… need to go tear down an instance I don’t really use anymore.

  Unfortunately this has been going on few several months now. YT is actively blocking IPs if they think they are from data centers, VPNs, or proxies.

  They’ve also been doing some under the hood cryptographic changes that cause breakages from time to time in Invidious (the backend for FreeTube)

  I mean, most deodorants have heavy metals and aspartame in them. He’s 50% correct in this decision.

  Now he just needs to gain some empathy for others and start using something like a Mineral Deodorant Block

  They’re cheaper, last 50x as long as normal deodorant sticks, and only need to be applied once generally, even if you sweat during the day.

  They fired the devs, not marketing /s

  I’ve been wondering the same. I think I’m in the 1-2 year mark currently.
