  I needed to do it to enable 2FA through the Steam app. Kinda wish I didn’t have to, since I know how unsafe SMS is.

  Valve remains goated because they’re not a public company. They set out to satisfy their customers, not their shareholders.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Even Starfield's community patch modders are growing 'disenchanted' with the sci-fi RPG, as volunteers depart in droves: 'If nobody comes forward, we may have to retire the project'⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The problems of Starfield, the ones that prevent it from being great even if only through modding, are engine-level problems. Those can’t be fixed without remaking the entire game from scratch in a new engine, and nobody wants to do that.

  Maybe in a couple decades we’ll get Starfield Remastered made in UE9.

  They’re trying to slow-boil you into having to play exclusively by their rules. In a couple years they’ll want to forbid you from having the console in your home, you’ll only be allowed to use it in official Nintendo-branded Play Rooms located at select locations. They’ll cost $20/hr to use, and you have to buy the console first.

  The EU is the true land of the free.

  I do think that the best government would be one run by AI.

  I do not think the AIs we currently have could run a government, though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AMERICAN POPE LETS GO⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  what does him being queer have to do with it?

  Also people are now making jokes about 9/11. Tragedy turns into comedy after 20 years.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo reserves the right to brick your console following "unauthorised use", in bid to prevent piracy⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  At this point I’m surprised Nintendo still allows people to play their games at their own homes, and not exclusively in official Nintendo-branded Play Rooms that only exist in like 6 places outside Tokyo and costs $20/hr to rent.

  Transphobic sex-purists think the perfect male/female bodies are built like Disney characters

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon blames millennials⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It went to shit because big corpos realized there was money in the games industry.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apex Legends writer gets laid off 24 hours after the character she wrote is revealed, because that's what the games industry in 2025 looks like⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think at this points it’s better to not join up with a large developer or publisher. The indie market has better job security.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cities Skylines 2, Kerbal Space 2, Planet Coaster 2, Frostpunk 2... What Went Wrong?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That thinking is the death of art anywhere. “Stop making unique stuff, stick to what sells.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Digital Foundry] Oblivion Remastered PC: Impressive Remastering, Dire Performance Problems⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My FPS drops from 60 to like 25, but that’s rarely. It’s not like it’s a constant 25.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Philosophy moment⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t been to school in a while, but we had smartphones when I did. And if we took up our phones in class we got called out by the teacher.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bethesda Gifts Everybody in the Skyblivion Mod Team a Copy of Oblivion Remastered⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  At least Elder Scrolls has a foundation. Part of the issue with Starfield was that it was a new IP, with no real predecessors. For ES6 they can look at the past titles and see what players liked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bethesda Gifts Everybody in the Skyblivion Mod Team a Copy of Oblivion Remastered⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They never really figured that out, actually.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bethesda Gifts Everybody in the Skyblivion Mod Team a Copy of Oblivion Remastered⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Starfield was the epitome of this. Rather than make a full game and let modders play around, they launched an empty, barren wasteland not-so-subtly made with extensive modding in mind. They figured that they don’t have to put effort into delivering a good product since their fans will do that for them following release.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bethesda Gifts Everybody in the Skyblivion Mod Team a Copy of Oblivion Remastered⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It goes against the corpo nature to do something that doesn’t earn them money. Their hierarchy of needs has only one point: income. Even this serves them in some way, even if it’s not apparent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon uses Windows⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My main concern is for my hobbies, like games and such. I’ve heard that games can have a bit of difficulty running on Linux, and graphics drivers too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon uses Windows⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly I’ve been eyeing Linux more and more, but it also scares me a little. What I’m mostly worried about is losing any functionality I’ve gotten used to.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered - Official Trailer (Available Today!)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Looking at Steam it looks like they locked the expansions behind the deluxe edition?

  Don’t worry, the Trump regime will get rid of the FDA, and recalls like this won’t bother you ever again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Here in Sweden I’ve noticed a surprisingly high amount of older men with younger asian wives. It always made me uncomfortable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨LinkedIn’s cofounder Reid Hoffman says seeking work-life balance is a red flag that you’re ‘not committed to winning’⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I want work life imbalance. I want less work and more life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know. If more devs start to support Linux, I probably will.

  I’m sure proper malware analysts have dedicated non-virtual machines they can just format between tests.
