  At the time they were going with the idea that computer were too complicated for “regular people” and that they needed a very dumbed down interface to reach the masses. It was released at the same time as Windows 95, but it really feels like it was made for Windows 3.1, which it also supported. It was just such an insultingly bad product.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is what they took from us.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  BOB was an abomination. I hope they took it to hell.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As per my last email⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Hah, classic

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dragon Quest Builders 2 & the Art of Directed Creativity⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m bummed that they never made a third game. Each game was somewhat related to the original game in the series and DQ3 was the best of the bunch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know man, the only Bethesda game I can think of that wasn’t a buggy mess is Arena and maybe I just wasn’t looking hard enough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Y'all might not be ready for this⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  BTTF3 did end with a (really stupid) time train, c/fuckcars might approve.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Y'all might not be ready for this⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I could live with that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Y'all might not be ready for this⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t heard this one before. Excellent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  overhyped, buggy, little innovation, okay-ish graphics

  They already said it was a Bethesda game

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That’s just unrealistic… too few poop breaks.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I sometimes get that many, quite a bit more if I count all the emails I automatically mark as read and put in a folder.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Be prepared⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The name was my favorite part. Like he’s the worst spy imaginable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Should I...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, Daiya is terrible. My wife and one of my kids can;t eat dairy. Violife seems to be one of the better shredded !cheeses, but only when melted.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨On 9/11 what was the internet like after it happened? Did people quit being dicks or trolls and showed some decency? Or was it like we have today and nothing changed?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, that was about right. Some of my younger, more moronic friends were making these same kinds of jokes pretty much right away. You know the type, trying to show how cool they were with being edgy. I was already working two full time jobs at the time when this happened so I was kind of in a daze at the actual moment of 9/11. I was more mad that I knew it would be used as an excuse to pass a bunch of bad laws that would screw over everyone and that was right on the money.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨On 9/11 what was the internet like after it happened? Did people quit being dicks or trolls and showed some decency? Or was it like we have today and nothing changed?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  People stopped being dicks and trolls for about 24-48 hours. The came a flood of really dark 9/11 jokes. Essentially any 9/11 joke was already though of within the first week.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DLSS 5 comes with a massive 50-60% performance hit, so I hope you like lower frame rates with your dose of AI image enhancement⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Using one of the most popular and beloved games of all time and calling it “dogshit”… that’s one way to win an argument I guess.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What exactly is the security of direct messages on lemmy? Does anyone actually use matrix?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I use both matrix and irc. different platforms for different stuff

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Are These Things Called Again?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They go great sliced on to crispy hexagons.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Metal Gear Solid 4 can finally be played without emulator or PS3⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Psyched! I’ll hold off to see how it plays with Proton to buy it, but my PS3 is long dead so I’d love to play this again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's about logic and not "feelings"⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So don’t part with money, got it!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There's No Reason to Buy a New Phone Anymore⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They do. They are huge, have poor software updates, and generally can’t be used with custom roms (hopefully this changes in the future), but bang for the buck the moto g line of phones is hard to beat. Weirdly, the 2024 and 2025 phones are the best to look at, the newer models are literal downgrades due to memory prices.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The legendary PS2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Those aren’t official joysticks, but I am somehow doubtful they could be any less shitty than the real deal haha

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The legendary PS2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Hmm, OK yeah I guess I can see that. I wish it wasn’t such a pain in the ass to hook an atari to a modern display, I really need to try this out now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The legendary PS2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That sounds frustrating, it never occurred to me to try playing with the paddles.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The legendary PS2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Discman/Walkman thing aside, they were some games that made excellent CDs. The Wipeout games and N2O are the first to come to mind.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The legendary PS2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey, TI bros o/

  I technically got the TI after already having an Atari though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The legendary PS2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you intentionally making him play the worst FF game as punishment? /s

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The legendary PS2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, the atari joysticks were garbage. Only my better third party joysticks held up, the official ones died when I was still a kid and the console was still being sold.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The legendary PS2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My PS1 lasted for 10 years of heavy use, but it still wasn’t indestructible. That’s a term I reserve only for the Atari 2600. I dug mine (I actually own two) out of the ashes of my house that burnt down. Only the atari, a few carts (2600 and NES) and my doc martens survived that fire. Its hilarious that they still work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The legendary PS2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I still have mine. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to get ready to lay down in my great pyramid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Those moutains are so quaint⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The best cheesesteaks I’ve had were on the east coast, not west coast. I’ve also had shitty versions of food everywhere by places that have no idea what they’re doing, you can’t just use some garbage a specific place offers and define regional food quality. For you next fun experiment try ordering a Cuban sandwich essentially anywhere outside of FL and you’re likely to get some embarrassing mutated ham sandwich bullshit.
