It still doesn’t do anything to steer me toward a Switch 2 over a Steam Deck
Who’s claiming that giving away your Deck is a necessity?
- Comment on Switch 2 supports USB mouse controls, developer reveals 3 days ago:
The gimmick gets more gimmicky.
No idea why you’re so dismissive. Metroid Prime 4 with a proper mouse is a great outlook.

- Comment on SteamOS finally released by Valve 4 days ago:
Its talking about the newer SteamOS 3.0
SteamOS 3.0 was released March 2022, so more than 3 years ago.
- Comment on SteamOS finally released by Valve 4 days ago:
Is it? Or did they choose Arch because of the ease of setting it up with all the latest software the community was already packaging?
That’s an illogical either or question because it’s both. Valve moved from Debian to Arch because of its more recent upstream packages, yes, but Valve’s upstream contributions in turn made Arch (and the other distributions) better for gaming.

The Trump administration is way too incompetent to actually achieve anything. They want that from the EU but they are also throwing away their own good cards to apply any pressure.
If the US pull out their NATO troops from Europe, have their statements leaked that they hate to help Europe, and impose insane tariffs on Europe no matter what, they have nothing to pressure Europe with.
European nations cancel F-35 orders and order Rafaele, Eurofighter, and Gripen instead and there is nothing the US can do about it now. It’s the same with healthcare. The US have nothing to pressure the EU with.

I still don’t understand how blocking individual EU countries conforms to the EU single market.
- Comment on Religions have some of the wackiest rules 4 weeks ago:
From the context it’s 100% clear that I meant the medieval practice, before modern science.
- Comment on Religions have some of the wackiest rules 4 weeks ago:
The whole “hygiene” and circumcision is a myth and a lie.
It’s not like there microbiology science existed thousands of years ago. It may have been a hygiene practice because people thought it was helpful. Bloodletting is BS as well and people thought it helped drain the body’s poisons.
- Comment on Religions have some of the wackiest rules 4 weeks ago:
I imagine the whole circumcision thing makes sense when you’re wandering the desert for years and there’s not a whole lot of water around, but other than that, yeah.
So blowjobs 3 times a day?

- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 GameCube controller is only compatible with GameCube games, Nintendo says 1 month ago:
“We’ve updated this article to note that Nintendo has made similar disclaimers with its previous retro controllers, which have ended up working with other Switch games.”
They’re just not officially supporting it. I hope Reto will informally make Metroid Prime 4 work with this the same way as MP1. I don’t like twin stick controls and mouse controls are not feasible on the go.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 GameCube controller is only compatible with GameCube games, Nintendo says 1 month ago:
Didn’t you hear? Just buy a switch 1 if you can’t afford or care for the switch 2.
You can also buy this controller and use it with PCs for an authentic emulation experience.

Oh, so it’s just ragebait and they’re reporting on nothing? I fell for it.
Just read the article for a change and you’d see that it was a later update to the article.

- Comment on while we were watching for threat from China, here comes Philippines with a steel chair! 1 month ago:
They’re not waiting, they’re preparing. They’re currently happily building navy and air force bases on “contested” islands in the South China Sea and nobody, not Biden, not Trump, is stopping them.
What they’re doing is commonly called encirclement.

- Comment on Windows on Snapdragon support is coming to Epic Online Services Anti-Cheat and Fortnite 2 months ago:
Kinda. The MS 365 subscription can be ordered from the app store. I don’t know about installing the Office applications afterwards, whether they then can be installed from the store.
- Comment on Windows on Snapdragon support is coming to Epic Online Services Anti-Cheat and Fortnite 2 months ago:
Just putting their own games on the platform would be money down the drain
If they heavily rely on some frameworks very much tied to x86 Windows that required massive efforts to port, sure, but usually they don’t for the simple fact that video game consoles and smartphones exist. Microsoft very much supports gaming on ARM platforms, most notably Nintendo Switch. There is no reason why Doom I+II isn’t officially available for Windows ARM.
- Comment on Windows on Snapdragon support is coming to Epic Online Services Anti-Cheat and Fortnite 2 months ago:
Gaming on ARM is going to have a steep hill to climb until there’s a Proton-esque compatibility layer.
Or even better: The company developing Windows on ARM, selling ARM Surface devices, one of the biggest game publishers after the takeover of Activision could just release their own freaking games on their own platform. Not even the casual games are:
- Comment on Windows on Snapdragon support is coming to Epic Online Services Anti-Cheat and Fortnite 2 months ago:
Lol, finally someone noticed that Windows on ARM exists. Microsoft certainly doesn’t even though some Surface tablets are using it. Not a single Microsoft game has been ported to Windows on ARM.

- Comment on Steam is a ticking time bomb. 2 months ago:
back when it was new
So a year later the time bomb still did not go off.
- Comment on Steam is a ticking time bomb. 2 months ago:
With all what they offer, 30% IMO is fair.
It’s not like the games are cheaper on other stores with lower cuts. Why would customers care if the lower cut just results in publishers pocketing higher profits.
- Comment on Steam is a ticking time bomb. 2 months ago:
This is by a Apple fanboy who is disgruntled that Valve broke up with Macs (Steam is still available but updates like the HL1 remaster aren’t any longer). Yeah, send thoughts an prayers for a cult who buy overpriced computers with weak iGPUs that only recently learned to do some raytracing but understand no Vulkan or somewhat modern OpenGL.
Apple has decided that gaming on Macs is about iPhone games on bigger screens and not about supporting cross-platform APIs and frameworks. Don’t blame any but Apple that your beloved platform is shit for gaming.

- Comment on Germany right now 2 months ago:
Also, Ukraine should be at war with the US for its interference in the election process in 2014, where the democratically elected leader was toppled in a blatant west-backed coup.
And here you are, laying bare that you’re just repeating pro Russian propaganda. Calling the right to protest a coup. Not the occupation of Crimea and Eastern Ukraine is the problem but the people rising up.
He’s not the one threatening our minorities and our women, he does that in Russia.
Yeah, Russia is just there doing some domestic stuff we don’t need to care about. Russia isn’t occupying parts of Ukraine, Moldova, and Georgia. Russia isn’t expanding westwards. Just sit idly by when tens of thousands of non-Russian children get kidnapped, put into reeducation camps, to then fight for Russia. Just sit idly by when Russian agents outright attack German barracks and twiddle your thumbs. Other issues are way more important than caring about that campaign of extermination in Eastern Europe within the borders of an EU-aspirant.
stop presenting Europe as the fighting ground for WW3
Good I didn’t do it. Another Russian propaganda tool is to push back against claims that were never made, acting as if anyone but Russia was the aggressor, trying to move the conversation into Russia’s genocide being just legitimate self-defense.
You’re nothing but a Russian propagandist, whether you’re aware of it or not.
“But wouldn’t a Russian propagandist deny that bad things are happening inside Russia?” the propaganda playbook would make you ask in return, admitting to some criticism but brush it off as a domestic problem far away, trying to cast doubts on your underlying intentions. Russia’s propagandists up the illusion of a broader political landscape. Put the AfD on Germany’s far right, put the BSW on Germany’s far left, put appeasers somewhere in between, and divert attention away from Russia’s attempts at conquering Europe.
