- Comment on Relooted - Game made by South Africans has been bombarded by right-wingers 5 days ago:
I think the devs are making a mistake by reacting interacting the trolls.
They are people frothing at the mouth and sent on that steam page with a political agenda. It seems the devs think they will “change their minds” after they brought the topic of slavery for no reason…
So I will add this to my wishlist check if I can report the posts that are straight up insults or racists and move on.
The trolls in question can’t stand that this game might be successful and there is nothing they can do beside review bombing at release which should trigger Steam’s detection.
Don’t feed the trolls and entertain them with a discussion…

I think it technically suggest the use of the metric system but doesn’t mandate its use. And so practically speaking its not used much outside of science fields.

Are you guys sure it’s a good idea to send all our most evil people on the same island ?
I’m sure the sentinelese don’t want a nazi secret lair out there, or another “epstein island” for that matter.
- Comment on How Do I Validate My Game Idea? (Please Help) 3 weeks ago:
Not many mentioned that but maybe a publisher can help ?
My understanding is that the right publisher could give you good feedback for your game and can have good knowledge of what works or not. I’m not saying like some big publishers but one that shares your vision for the game and could help.

I would make everything look like CoD and not let anybody join a match of their choice (no match browser). Also the field will be 70% smaller so that players dont get bored or miss shots. Who wants to watch missed shots anyway ?

Depends of the hacker.
I suppose some government blackhat could do such thing for a very targeted hack. Still unlikely though.
- Comment on anons brother has some strong opinions 5 weeks ago:
I just find full brick based architecture absolutely horrible.
So if everything is red bricks I think it’s ugly. And in London suburbs j felt like everything was made of bricks. I remember taking a suburb train and being shocked that almost every single building had those red bricks.
To each their own I guess but full brick style is not my thing for sure.

I thought the issue was sand/silica and the fact that we may exhaust the ressources to do cement eventually. It takes a lot of sand materials if I recall correctly ?
- Comment on anons brother has some strong opinions 5 weeks ago:
I hate bricks.
I went to the London suburbs and still think it was the ugliest building style ever. Bricks everywhere, bricks on walls separating houses, brick train stations, brick city buildings, brick houses… Bricks bridge ?
I just can’t stand those brick based cities. I think it’s just as bad or worse as going full on concrete.

But the point is that people will continue to die and believe in that kind of thing. A bit like religion…
Obviously space could become an issue especially if some kind of revival never happens… But at the price they set I think it’s prohibitive enough.
There will never be a shortage of fools for this kind of services.
- Comment on My IP address is apparantly suspicious? What? (Real IP, not a VPN) 5 weeks ago:
I remember that Paypal locked my account close to Christmas because I bought the product on a laptop using a tethered mobile access. Paypal detected that I was not using a standard connection and froze the account. That would be fine but even the support team at PayPal couldn’t remove that flag even if I provided my full identity etc.
Since then I never used Paypal.
- Comment on Steam: Updates to User Review Scores Based on Language 5 weeks ago:
What if I actually want to see the review bombing and it’s effect before buying the product ?
Really, the more I think about this change, the less convincing it is. It will hide review bombing of games that might have warn you of something… I think it will just muddy and make the Steam way harder to assess and use.
- Comment on Steam: Updates to User Review Scores Based on Language 5 weeks ago:
I personally don’t look forward to this new feature. I dont want my local language to be used. And that will be one more program that will constantly nag me about if I want to translate some review or only shows the one in my language by default.
I just want to use my currency and being able to just speak English.
I dont want steam to become like Firefox and decide for you that you do need some translations for stuff…
Since I dont think the language you speak should have any relevancy to the quality of the game I have no interest for reviews that are not in English.
So I just hope this “let’s localize for you everything” trend will stop.
I dont want french reviews of French games made in france. I just want English reviews of games and the score for all reviews.
Currently the localization of the reviews is the thing that I dislike the most with steam which goes to show how good I think the product is.
- Comment on What are some good "frugal" movie viewing setups? (Recommendations) 1 month ago:
There is tools like Lux meters that measures that.
In that case I think the other commenter was suggesting that a lot of marketing bullshit can be misleading. So dont trust the marketing stuff and go for trusted reviewers.
The brightness is an important value for a VP.
- Comment on What are some good "frugal" movie viewing setups? (Recommendations) 1 month ago:
I personally have been using a BenQ W1070 for about 10 years. I couldn’t go without it. It’s constantly connected to my PC with a long HDMI cable and I just project on a clean white wall.
I went through 5 lamps changing most of them myself so it’s rather not expensive if you just change the lamp without casing.
I hear a lot of people say that you need a proper screen but I think it’s mostly bullshit at least for basic 1080p projector.
Use online calculators for VPs to check the throw distance and everything is good and as long as the wall is white and smooth IMHO it’s fine for an already good viewing experience.
The biggest mistake IMO for VP owner is to set it up on its own separate to their PC.
My VP is just an extra screen I switch on when I need to watch something but it’s never complicated. I switch it on and move YT or VLC to that screen.
A VP of good quality is really not that expensive if you change the lamp yourself and it provides a really comfortable way to watch content. Highly recommend them.
For sound I went for a fairly common Logitech Z906 for 5.1 support.
Honestly it’s a great setup I bought 10 years ago and I never regretted it.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 1 month ago:
It’s just as insane for you to expect us to read between the line of a 4 line comment that only present AI as harmful.
If you want to say that AI is both good and bad, that’s fine but then say that. It doesn’t have to be a book about it. You could have juste said AI can be harmful or good and that’s fine. Don’t act as if i’m asking for something unreasonable. You said one negative thing in a 4 line comment and feel personally attacked that we are unable to guess what positive thing you see in AI.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 1 month ago:
First you should chill a bit.
I know you think this will harm you and everyone you know,
So this thing will harm you. But you are not describing AI as only negative ?
You just say AI will harm you and suppose people assume you have positive thing to say about AI
Where is the nuance toward AI in your comment please show it to me.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 1 month ago:
So everything related to AI is negative ?
If so do you understand why we can’t have any conversation on the subject ?
- Comment on Lemmy be like 1 month ago:
May I ask for a link ? Never saw that in the communities I consult. Never. Or at least not above 5 downvotes.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 1 month ago:
An AI could be demonstrably 30 times more accurate than a human in diagnosing a cancer on a scan Lemmy would still shit on it because it’s an IA :D.
On Reddit I knew that the subject of gun control was not allowed to be talked about. Now I embraced Lemmy and I can’t talk no matter what about AI. It’s just a taboo subject. Apparently some people want to reject the tech entirely and think it will somehow just magically stay out of their lives. A very naive dream.
So yeah Lemmy. Refuse the conversation, look away, I’m sure it will be fine.

I found a 350€ OralB toothbrush in a shop recently in France.
I couldn’t believe the amount of bullshit you have to cram in to up a toothbrush to that level of price.

How are those surprlus “solving world hunger”?
There is nothing really saying that in the wikipedia page. Just because a country has surplus at one point doesn’t mean it will fill the belly of someone at the other side of the world.
Sorry but this seems like a massive simplification.
