- Comment on Xbox Console Sales Continue To Crater With Massive 42% Revenue Drop - Slashdot 4 months ago:
I’ve grown a bit tired of the Xbox experience as well with some of what you’ve mentioned. I also don’t play every single game that comes out, just a select few with whatever free time I do have. I want to get away from online gameing if I can, though I’m not against it my preferences are just shifting so I want to gravitate more to single player games and currently I’m considering the next Switch console (Switch 2?) and just play all the first party games Nintendo is known for, Zelda, Mario, Starfox, etc and all their retro games that’ll be on the online store. I could get lost for years with that content. Really excited to possibly have that option for myself in the future. Just thought I’d share a different perspective.

I think I’ll just stick to playing retro games in emulators for free without a subscription. Sure I miss out on the latest and greatest games, but graphics aren’t everything to me, the gameplay is more important to me. Plus, I really despise having to have subscriptions for everything. If Game Pass works for people, more power to those gamers, but I’m tired of giving what little income I have to billion dollar companies. /rant

I guess Lemmy is mostly tech nerds like myself, but it’s still cool as hell to see another Fedora user around :)

It’s post like this that Lemmy needs that just make my day because I learn just a bit more than what I knew 5 minutes ago, thank you for the thoughtful post.

Appreciate the nitter link, thank you! A few (many?) of us no longer user Twitter actively or even have an account there, it’s essentially de-listed site to avoid for me, but at least with Nitter you can still see some of the content when needed to.
- Comment on What hobbies did you pick up during the pandemic and have you been able to keep them up? 1 year ago:
Only managed to pick up about 8 water bottle types, and about 2 small trash bags worth of random debris, rubber, ropes/lines, and for the love of all that is holy why do people smash glass bottles, like come on! But overall getting dirty helped make my area just a tiny bit cleaner for a little while and I can’t complain about that!

I don’t know if I’ll commit as hard and long as you, but nonetheless you have inspired me to walk out this evening with a trash bag to go pick up some litter. Captain Planet would be so proud of us.
- Comment on BMW 1 year ago:
“In February 2001, an Alien Tort Claims Act claim was filed in U.S. federal court on behalf of concentration camp survivors against IBM. The suit accused IBM of allegedly providing the punched card technology that facilitated the Holocaust, and for covering up German IBM subsidiary Dehomag’s activities.”
Sadly, a majority of the lawsuits brought up against IBM in connection with it’s dark past get dropped.

Bit off topic maybe, but I’m just reading all these comments and some of y’all are cracking me up! I just wanted to say it was a pleasure to read a bunch of random comments that boosted my mood. Thanks!

Does this mean we’ve hit critical mass now? ;)
