Session disables forward secrecy for no reason.
Personally, I assume it’s a honeypot.
- Comment on Steam Deck sales drop hard following the Nintendo Switch 2 announcement 4 weeks ago:
The Switch catalog was limited in no small part because the device just couldn’t give acceptable performance for a lot of contemporary cross-platform games. That, of course, didn’t matter for first-party titles.
Switch 2 performance is projected to end up somewhere around a base PS4, with better GPU but somewhat diminished CPU. However, it’s going to have more memory than the Xbox Series S that teams had trouble porting their games to.
The Switch 2 might benefit a lot from this generation’s extended cross-gen period. Add that to franchises like Fire Emblem, Metroid, Mario, Mario Kart, Pikmin and Zelda, and the average consumer is going to think of Steam as the “limited” platform.
A lot of conjecture, and maybe Switch 2 will turn out to be a monumental flop. I’m cautiously optimistic.
By the way, the old, selective policy that Nintendo exercised is pretty much a thing of the past. Just browse through the eShop for three minutes.
- Comment on Norwich restaurant charges £100 for a pineapple pizza 5 weeks ago:
I’d like to imagine their pineapple pizza was the absolute best there is on planet Earth, but in spite of (or maybe because of) that they just fucking hate making it.
Basically, the Ronnie O’Sullivan of pie shops.
- Comment on Are there any games like Starfield? 5 weeks ago:
When Squadron 42 finally comes out, it’ll be just considered commentary on contemporary issues. Basically like Job Simulator… in space

When the generation parameters take up more space than the image itself…!
Well, screen space at least.
- Comment on Balatro is now out on Mobile. Humanity is doomed. 4 months ago:
Maybe check out Monster Train. That one also landed on Arcade pretty recently.
- Comment on In its first week, Immortals of Aveum had a peak count of just 751 players on Steam. 1 year ago:
Hopefully, it sold more on consoles. Otherwise, numbers like this could kill a fledgling studio outright.
