It’s just me but I got bored of living during the lockdowns. It was then I realized that I’m an extroverted person, albeit quite socially anxious.

One of the shit thing is that all the games that I’ve bought in the last 5 years all has come into game pass.

I think the Xbox Ally is able to play the Series’ games. It has a GPU that’s comparable to the Series S.
However, we’re gonna lose the old Xbox games (OG & One) compatibility unless Microsoft bundles an Xbox emulator into Windows.

I don’t know but Path Tracing makes CBP2077 and Alan Wake 2 looks like a real next gen game.
- Comment on Microsoft and Asus announce two Xbox Ally handhelds with new Xbox full-screen experience 4 weeks ago:
Nope, Bazzite or SteamOS doesn’t have that functionality.
Here’s a video showing how it works. If they managed to put this on Windows I’d be very tempted.
Mind that this is different from pausing the game. The OS is suspending the game state into the disk, so it’s more similar to emulator snapshots functionality.

I have an Xbox Series S for my little one and Direct Resume is such a nice QoL feature. Having 8 games always ready and only takes 3 seconds to resume even after you turned off and unplug the console is very useful. There’s some games on my handheld PC I didn’t bother playing since launching it can take a long time.
- Comment on Microsoft and Asus announce two Xbox Ally handhelds with new Xbox full-screen experience 4 weeks ago:
If they implemented Direct Resume I might cave and reinstall Windows on my Ally.

It depends whether you subscribe to the belief of reincarnation. There’s always a possibility that you’re actually reincarnated from an alien in Andromeda somewhere and the reason why you can’t remember anything is because the memory format of the alien physiology is not compatible with human brain.

Damn, it’s still weird seeing Yamiks outside of Elite content. It’s like seeing your old teacher in a bowling alley.
- Comment on Let's play this game again 1 month ago:
Well isn’t that okay? If you live in a big city your need to sleep of 8 hours is spread to a lot of people so people would just need to add few seconds of their sleep.
If you’re traveling away from civilization, that’s another story.
Hmm, your side effect also doesn’t specify the organism taking the sleep burden is a human so it can spread to other animals. By virtue this is a pretty useless side effect or even can be used as an explanation on how their powers work.

I know a guy who only buys games as last resort but bought all the gooner skins in Rivals.
- Comment on Chips aren’t improving like they used to, and it’s killing game console price cuts 2 months ago:
I respectfully disagree. AMD basically said that they survived the Bulldozer debacle because of Sony and Microsoft ordering their APUs. The custom designs also have trickled down with AMD making iGPU that are desktop levels now (8060S).
- Comment on Codemasters confirms layoffs as EA-owned studio shifts focus away from beloved rally games 2 months ago:
Yep, they should have just put the yearly changes on something like a season pass and timed the major release with the regulation changes to match the simulation engine development.
- Comment on Cities Skylines 2, Kerbal Space 2, Planet Coaster 2, Frostpunk 2... What Went Wrong? 2 months ago:
Institutional knowledge is a real thing and also like you said, the first KSP started as a passion project. There’s a huge difference in terms of pressure and expectation between developing your own passion project compared to developing a sequel of a highly regarded game.

Don’t worry, we’ll find another part that’s going to be broken instead. TBH it already happened to my friend’s Gullikit controller, his shoulder and trigger buttons are already broken, but not his analog stick.

- Comment on Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 3 - Announcement 3 months ago:
I don’t know why they priced it 60 dollars in the US. But Space Marine 2 has a really generous regional pricing. Converted to USD it’s around 30 bucks to get Space Marine 2 and with the current sale it’s around 22 bucks to get it. At that prices it’s quite worth it in my opinion.

I finally got it too. It feels like a rite of passage. You’re not a full citizen until you got the DM.
- Comment on Is anyone else playing Avowed? What are your thoughts so far? 4 months ago:
The price tag exists solely to drive people to subscribe for Game Pass. With the kind of content the game offering, it’s a perfectly good 40 dollar game, not a 70 dollar one. A good spin-off to the PoE franchise while still moving the world forward.
- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 4 months ago:
Oof this is the reason why I went with Fold. Basically when folded it takes almost the same area as an iPhone 5 albeit quite thicker. But my hand adjusted to the thickness quite nicely.
Having basically a small tablet when you unfold the phone for actual two handed use is good too.
- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 4 months ago:
It’s useful to take pictures. I usually turn on the outside screen so the people I’m taking picture of can pose themselves better. My kids love it too.
Sometimes I also use it for maps navigation when walking somewhere new. There’s actually lots of use cases for it, I just get a case with screen protector for it.
