- Comment on What's going on at Mozilla these days? 2 months ago:
I’m willing to bet that the people who switch to Firefox for ad-blockers and ad-free YouTube aren’t the kinds of people who are donating much to Mozilla. People in online forums talk a big game about wanting to pay for products and not be the product. But it seems like people don’t really want to pay any meaningful amount of money for a browser.

Tbf, there are American beaches known for being drivable. Specifically, Daytona Beach.
- Comment on temperature 9 months ago:
I like that Fahrenheit has a narrower range for degrees. 1C is 1.8 degrees F. So, F allows you to have more precision without the use of decimals. Like, 71F feels noticeably different to me than 64F, but that is only a 3.8 degree difference in C.
- Comment on temperature 9 months ago:
That isn’t consistent with K and C though. -K doesn’t exist. And water doesn’t become more frozen at -C (well I guess it technically becomes different kinds of frozen).
Zero in that sense represents the absolute limit that one could exist in a particular state, which for F would be comfort? I guess the issue with humans is that 0 would be very subjective. But I think for almost all humans, the limit would be closer to 40F than 0F.

Third team is OKC they are giving 2026 LAC pick and doing a 2027 pick swap with Clippers. Not sure what OKC is getting yet.

- Comment on Is it recommended to wear a face mask when riding bicycle around cars? 1 year ago:
I wonder if this would be a possible use case for the stupid Dyson headphone filter. It uses positive pressure to provide you with filtered air. However, I’m not certain the filter would be enough to clean exhaust fumes.
Another issue would be that you probably shouldn’t be wearing headphones while biking, but maybe they have a passthrough mode.
- Comment on [MEGATHREAD] Starfield - Your experiences! 1 year ago:
Reddit has toxic positivity with regards to Starfield. I find the comments I’ve read here so far to be a much more measured take. Basically that it’s a good game but it has a few minor issues that make it not live up to what was advertised.
- Comment on Weaker subscription deals have hit indie publishers, says analyst | GamesIndustry.biz 1 year ago:
Cause a lot of indie devs are also idiots when it comes to business decisions. Many (especially solo devs) didn’t get into the industry to make boatloads of money; they are often creative types who are passionate about their work.
- Comment on Square Enix share price drops amid claims Final Fantasy 16 didn’t meet ‘high end’ expectations 1 year ago:
There have been 38M PS5s sold so clearly anything less than 38M copies of FFXVI sold is a complete failure.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 to Feature as Much as 512 GB of Internal Storage, 8-Inch LCD Screen - Rumor 1 year ago:
Switch games aren’t; the large ones are 20-50GB. And you can just toss in a 1-2 TB SD card if you need more storage.
- Comment on It's Party Time: Baldur's Gate 3 is Out Now 1 year ago:
Nope. I am actually using ultra settings with a few of the options then turned down. I followed the instructions here: rockpapershotgun.com/baldurs-gate-3-system-requir…
- Comment on It's Party Time: Baldur's Gate 3 is Out Now 1 year ago:
Running pretty well for me 30-40 fps on mediumish settings. Gamepad works great. It also has cross save so I might pick it up later for ps5.

GeForce Now while you wait?
- Comment on Valve Releases New Steam Deck Update 1 year ago:
OMG finally. Now I can find the new games I’ve bought when I go on a spending spree and buy like 10 games
- Comment on It's Party Time: Baldur's Gate 3 is Out Now 1 year ago:
Could be worse.
Glances over at the Xbox
I went ahead and bought it for the Steam Deck. Might buy it again for the PS5 next month if I really like it.
- Comment on It's Party Time: Baldur's Gate 3 is Out Now 1 year ago:
Have yet to try but I’ve read you need to turn on proton experimental for it to work. I’ve seen that people are getting roughly 30fps with medium settings and FRS. Also, the final release has gamepad support.
I’m probably going to give it a try later tonight and can update then if you’re still interested.
- Comment on Why are we focused on a room temperature superconductor instead of a less cold superconductor? 1 year ago:
Great points. Thanks for taking the time to type all that out.
- Comment on Why are we focused on a room temperature superconductor instead of a less cold superconductor? 1 year ago:
I guess that is sort of what bugs me. Why are we jumping from one extreme to the other instead of figuring out stuff in between first.

If it has a SD slot, 1TB seems like overkill. The top Steam Deck only has 512GB.

Given that DC is like 90% democrat… Might be more likely that we’d get a conviction.
- Comment on EXCLUSIVE: Lenovo is working on a Windows PC gaming handheld called the 'Legion Go' 1 year ago:
Yeah ROG and Ally are also kind of odd too. The console side of gaming seems to have much stronger branding.
- Comment on EXCLUSIVE: Lenovo is working on a Windows PC gaming handheld called the 'Legion Go' 1 year ago:
Yeah, I meant why their gaming line is called Legion. Is there some gaming related meaning to it. Just seems like a strange choice.
- Comment on EXCLUSIVE: Lenovo is working on a Windows PC gaming handheld called the 'Legion Go' 1 year ago:
Is there a story behind the name Legion? Seems like a strange choice for gaming hardware.

I’m guessing that we will be only getting this every three years when it’s CBS’s turn to broadcast.
