Advantage of using the app: Remote shutter/control.
Very convenient if you take lunar photos. - Comment on In 3.5 years, Notepad.exe has gone from “barely maintained” to “it writes for you” 2 days ago:
Do all that but just without all the AI crap.
Thank you very much. - Comment on In 3.5 years, Notepad.exe has gone from “barely maintained” to “it writes for you” 2 days ago:
And they killed Wordpad for that.
Now I didnt use wordpad at all and was content with txt and md files.
But that is vile. - Comment on Microsoft renames "Remote Desktop" to "Windows App". Good luck googling for any help or troubleshooting it. 5 days ago:
What’s the original? Sounds as fun as ‘Front fell off’

Amd on Windows they removed the functionality to remote into other machines.
Only business accounts for now.
But not for Android, iOS/MacOS.

- Comment on Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2 3 weeks ago:
It’s a double dipping technique.
First all players are hyped for GTA6, some even buying a console to experience it on launch day.
Then the PC release get’s out 1-2 years later and everyone with a capable rig know it will run better there and buy it again.Assuming it will be a 80€ game, they now made 160€ in revenue instead of 80.

Maybe more like 6 times that (for me) :D - Comment on Apple's USB-C transition is a confusing mess (and that might be on purpose) 3 weeks ago:
Sounds like the writer confused Mbps with MB/s or something.
But even then it’s kinda weird. - Comment on Firefox could be doomed without Google search deal, says executive 3 weeks ago:

^*^not necessarily true for podcasts, in which the podcaster could have ads baked into the recording.
Actually not.
I like listening to the WAN show podcast from LTT. Amd as most here prpbably know they are very keen on monetizing a lot on their content.
As it turns out Spotify has different settings between podcasts and music. And they offer the creators to enable ads (even for premium subs) inbetween podcast episodes.
So if you queue the LTT-podcast after a regular song, you can get advertisements before and after an episode.
You can scrub through or skip the ad but it requires manual interaction to do so. And hot keys like on (BT-)headsets don’t work.I confirmed their existence with the Spotify support

Well…
Then the employee was responsible for a 2% dip of the Take2 stock :D - Comment on Grand Theft Auto VI is Now Coming May 26, 2026 - Rockstar Games 3 weeks ago:
Because most can’t achieve both (story and graphics).

At what point can it not be improved anymore?
We might get…
Very good graphics
A solid driving KI (that wont crash into you on purpose)
Interesting environmentAt that point only the story can make the difference and that is just at random.

My thumb of rule for anything announced by AAA-studios: Release date + 1 year.
And it almost never went wrong.
And for R*: Announced + 1 year extension + 1-2 years for PC release - Comment on Grand Theft Auto VI is Now Coming May 26, 2026 - Rockstar Games 3 weeks ago:

- Comment on Microsoft is raising prices on Xbox consoles, controllers, and games worldwide 3 weeks ago:
I did that at my friends place: Worked very good. Screen was turned off and connected my xbox controller.
Minor nitpick: If it’s connected via a powered dock they should circumvent the battery.

“Artists” lol.
The ratio is 100:1 (1 being an actual artist or a studio still enacting on this believe) - Comment on Microsoft is raising prices on Xbox consoles, controllers, and games worldwide 3 weeks ago:

Fuck the US for inflicting this on the rest of the world.
At least the ones that voted the orange guy. - Comment on 8BitDo no longer shipping to US from China due to Trump tariffs 3 weeks ago:
To be fair: They are probably not working with a lot of margin and shipping it bavk to china is costly for them.
If I buy on AliExpress I am under the impression of it either fits or needs to be trashed. But returning is very unlikely.
And 8bitdo is (when not being sold by a 3rd party like for example microcenter) just another chinese seller/manufacturer on AliExpress or Amazon^(which is just a chinese shipping proxy with some local sellers nowadays) - Submitted 3 weeks ago to videos@lemmy.world | 0 comments

The worst part about growing companies are the almost impossible ways for those small interactions.
