- Comment on Ex-PlayStation exec argues 'only the dog can hear' differences between consoles and gaming PCs: 'They're all quite similar' 6 days ago:
I honestly think some console games look pretty good and perform well. It’s hard to have something optimized when the hardware is so diverse. Similar to iPhone vs android. With that said, PC games without some ass backwards “copy protection” and “anti-cheat” will always be excluded from my lists.
- Comment on Why do people insist on not answering ALL the questions in an email or text message? 6 days ago:
At least now you can rely back with “can you also provide feedback for #1 & #3?”
Repeat until all items are cleared. Not perfect, but at least you don’t have to waste time rewording a follow-up email.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con may have the same stick drift problem as original Switch 1 week ago:
They initially also only did it in places that consumer protection laws would force them to. Some markets (at least initially) didn’t get the same benefit.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 Game-Key Card Overview 1 week ago:
People are referring to damaged physical media = can’t play it. That’s always been the case. You mixed 2 different things into the same point, which are wildly distinct and why people say they agree partially.
- Comment on The Switch 2 Rollout Was So Convoluted It Made Us Want A Steam Deck. 1 week ago:
Fully agree. I disabled the joycon motion controls on Zelda to be able to play it. I was not going to give Nintendo more money for another faulty replacement.
It is part of the reason I will not buy a switch 2. They evaporated the trust I had in them chasing profits by not acknowledging a very known problem.
It’s clear that it is lawyers and bean counters steering the company. The only thing they still have going for them is they delay games until they are acceptable, once that boat has sailed, you know it will be all downhill going forward.

I was about to say, I never got more than 3-4 on the one I own. You refreshed my memory. It also had an OLED screen on the updated hardware.
- Comment on Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Trailer (2025) 3 weeks ago:
Can’t be delayed if there is no release date (other than possible 2025). Luckily Nintendo does delay their games when needed.

Smallville did what?

- Comment on Acting head of Social Security Administration Michelle King resigns after dispute with DOGE: report 1 month ago:
The way to bankrupt a country’s safety nets and plunder the remains with capitalism? Can’t wait to have the SSA be private so all claims can be denied similar to the shit healthcare “system” in place, because we LOVE that system.

It would turn pitch black. So dark the stars far away would be the brightest when compared to everything else. It would be scary.
- Comment on Steam now warns about Early Access that have not been updated in months. 2 months ago:
While what you say is accurate right now. With the rule in place, automating small “check-ins” and “updates” could become a thing.
- Comment on Contributing to the local economy 2 months ago:
With that said, a beater with snow tires and chains on the trunk (and a driver that knows how to put them on before they are needed) will do better than a Subaru with all season tires.
Source: Subaru forums, even a RWD like a BRZ/FRS with snow tires can be safe if driven with the car’s limitations in mind.
- Comment on Boomers with their loud Samsung phone sounds 2 months ago:
While not as bad, my dad is kind of like that with phones. I installed Linux mint and honestly as long as the same ginormous Firefox icon (which I told him was the internet and YouTubes - same as the same of in windows) is around, he can still get to his karaoke and YouTube videos.
On my side I know it is pretty much impossible for him to get a malicious executable now, every few weeks we do upgrades when I visit which are a lot faster than windows updates.

- Comment on Inside Skydance Media’s Financials: David Ellison’s Studio Has Mostly Lost Money Since 2021 3 months ago:
I would disagree. They are saying they are gullible enough to fall for both new scams (AI) and old scams (believing the Oracle will actually provide any support to some product their sales team is pushing).
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
Worked retail and the end of shift crew always had to wait to leave at the same time with some bag check BS. Pile of shit thieving corporate and management would adjust the time to cut out payment of the last 5 or so minutes. The company is now defunct (taken out by vulture venture style capitalist owner entity after it was sold), otherwise it would have been nice to call the department of whatever deals with wage theft on them now that I know better. A.k.a.: if your company does time adjustments silently, consider this your signal and call the inspectors on them.

At the hardware level yes, software, yes as long as you don’t mind repaying for something you bought previously (potentially) and also don’t mind it being unavailable a few years later.

- Comment on PS5 Pro Games to Scale Better Than PS4 Pro's, Says Dev; Maxed PCs Cost 3-5x Times, Can't Be Compared 5 months ago:
Even if I don’t disagree games on consoles are better optimized, anti-consumer tactics they employ have made sure I will avoid them in the same way I’ve started to avoid Microsoft and Google products. It’s not about console vs PC, it’s about consumer media rights for me.
