  I definitely feel this way about gaming online. I miss Microsoft Ants.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why isn't apple a popular ice cream flavor?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Forget apple, we need more banana/banana creme ice cream flavors.

  Thank you for this, I’m going to set up my own Open RSC server tonight.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TitanFall 2 at 3$⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Is this worth it on Xbox One? A used copy is pretty cheap at GameStop. Wouldn’t want it on PC due to EA junk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I enjoyed playing through the remaster on PC. But after 100%ing the game, any time I’ve felt like playing it I just end up running the international version in an emulator.

  Don’t use YouTube to MP3, use one of the Deemix variants that downloads music straight from Deezer’s servers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox Console Sales Are Tanking⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As someone who has dealt with a couple dozen Surface devices in a corporate setting, I cannot recommend them. They’re fine when they work. When they have issues though, they are practically impossible to repair. Keyboard port issues, dock connection issues, bricked devices, and even expanding batteries are all issues I’ve run into. When you have an issue, Microsoft will just swap it out for a different one rather than fix the device.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could Xbox Soon Become The Next Dreamcast?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No, because the Dreamcast was cool in the first place. Xbox peaked with the 360 and has gone downhill since.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Derps of Tiktok⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Kurt Cobain has probably been gone longer than these people have been alive.

  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dell tells remote workers that they won’t be eligible for promotion unless they go hybrid⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to love Dell’s enterprise laptops and desktops. We rarely had hardware problems with them. Then the generation that switched to USB-C (over the old dock port) came around and we’ve had tons of hardware failures - both laptops and docks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Steam Spring Sale is now in full swing⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I loved Anarchy Online back in the day. I don’t think I ever did anything particularly in depth on it, but I remember being proud that I had an in game apartment and a flying car thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Because wealthy office building owners are pushing everyone to keep using the offices.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨makes sense⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably mining dogecoin or something else Musk would like.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The death of ownership: Companies are taking away your ability to actually own the stuff you buy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Thankfully, you still can use an antenna to get over the air stations.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Returning to the office is 'wildly more expensive' today than in 2019—here's how much people are spending⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The joke is on them then, we “went back” to the office in 2021 and I’ve been doing this since.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Returning to the office is 'wildly more expensive' today than in 2019—here's how much people are spending⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Almost like working remote makes sense if people can complete their whole job at home.

  I’m doing one day a week in the office right now and I loathe that one day. Literally all of the servers and services I’m responsible for are hosted at Azure so it doesn’t matter where I’m at.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo demoed Switch 2 to developers at Gamescom⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That would be nice, but it’s Nintendo so it probably will be old by the time it comes out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Speaking from experience here. I’ve done this on over a dozen different computers with zero issues over a three month span. It was part of a proposal for transitioning our company computers to Windows 11 while cutting out the junk. None of them had any problems running without Xbox services, Cortana, bloatware games, activity tracking, etc.

  We ended up using Microsoft Intune for restricting Windows 10/11 to our standards. But that’s not really available for consumers and debloaters are safe to use instead.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Not new to Linux, it’s literally what I’ve been dealing with for work for the last decade. I just meant that I moved the last of my personal machines away from Windows.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I have run into zero issues installing packages from other places. The snap store is a bit annoying but not a big deal. I’ve been on and off using Ubuntu since ~2005 so that’s why I went with it over another distro. No room for elitism for certain distros - everyone has different reasons for picking what they use. We can all agree to hate on Windows though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows Updated and is Pushing More Stuff⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If it’s your own machine, I recommend running one of the Windows 11 debloaters.

  I’ve moved all of my personal machines over to Linux (specifically Ubuntu). Windows just isn’t worth it anymore.
