That is just not true. I hate twitter but i still use it. I am autistic and follow very specific things on it and while i also use mastodon and bluesky, there is barely anyone that has the same current interests as i do.

I don’t like it but i also don’t completely want to alienate myself from people i enjoy talking to and seeing their stuff. I try to follow them all on mastodon and bluesky if they have an account there, but not everyone has that.

I have all ads blocked and purely use it for my hobbies. So suggesting that makes me a fascist is absolutely ridiculous. We are trying to move to another platform but its not as easy as you make it out to be.

Same as Lemmy. I love Lemmy. BUT there are things that just so not exist here yet that do exist on reddit. And i have no interest in making a community for it either as i don’t want to moderate anything.

Huh, suddenly the crying straight gamers care about representation… 🤔

Wasn’t tiktok getting banned? Is that still happening?

And then they fuck off and stop reponding.

He has such a elon musk vibe. That whole “these other corporations are bad but i am a good corporate overlord! Pinky promise!”. And say all these same statements over and over as if he is on your side, fighting for your freedom. All while trying to put his own epic branded straight jacket over your head.

Just piss off already…

Should be an international war crime. Who the hell stacks laptops like that…

Absolutely love this game. Its a real gem for people that like puzzles and detective stuff. BUT i have had multiple times where a case was unsolvable because of a bug. Which is incredibly frustrating because you never know if its bugged or you’re just overlooking something.

Oh thankyou! Yeah that does make sense. That is pretty messed up.

Not gonna lie, your link scared me for a second because i didn’t realize it was Invidious as it said nerdvpn when i clicked it.

I’m not saying there isn’t, but do you have some examples of pro china propaganda in games and movies? I heard something about the live-action mulan movie being filmed in xinyang, but besides that i haven’t personally noticed anything.

There is a steam group called “Wholesome Games” that lists cozy games. They also do nintendo direct style twitch streams. There is a ton of amazing cozy games. Of course there are some not so great ones. But the video seemed to focus only on stardew valley clones. Even though there are so many unique ones out there.

For example i played a VR demo a few weeks ago called Sushi Ben. It was very unique and cozy. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2419240/Sushi_Ben/

This one is very cozy too.

There is a ton of unique and amazing cozy games in the Wholesome Games group that i suggest people check out: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/35411526/

I think the link is to their curator steam page but I’m on my phone so its a bit hard to navigate.

I really like what i saw in the trailer! I’ll try the demo later today if i don’t forget haha. Keep it up! 😁

I should check those out! I really miss those days. Playing the Vampire slayer mod. The Specialists, Sven co-op, Brain bread, even the silly minigames in counter strike 1.6.

I LOVED the minigames where it was knife only and there were these janky-ass vehicles. I found a screenshot of the map actually:

I miss these times so much. I know there is minigames in csgo, but its mostly just the jail and zombie escape ones.

In counterstrike source there were zombie survival maps where you had unlimited ammo and could shoot props such as couches infront of doorways to kind of block yourself in. I would hide in the vents and shoot a couch into it. Then go in it myself and they would only be able to attack from the front because the couch would block my back.

Absolutely lovely times ❤️

Make everything a half life mod again ❤️

They’re so damn focused on graphics. Luckily i can use PCVR. But I am tired of the constant focus on top of the line graphics. I get it, but its just unnecessary and locks out so many people from playing the game.

That legit makes me sad. I loved watched old cartoons there. Does anyone know where else i can watch them?

And my money redistribution company can not get money to redistribute without robbing banks. Please put up your hands. 🔫🥷

Yeah i like it that i can play the game on the highest quality and it makes the steam deck less hot and the battery last waaaaay longer :)

I also have it connected to my tv a lot so i can play pc games in 4k on the couch.

I also tend to switch between the steam deck and pc multiple times in a day, so having everything on one system is really nice.

Games like vampire survivor, emulators, bind of isaac, olders games etc, i play on the steam deck directly. But having immediate access to my xbox games pass library is also really nice ^^

Honestly non at all. I even took a video once with my phone of my steam deck screen next to the pc monitor and the frames were perfectly in sync. The input feels native and i have zero latency with that. I remember years ago it indeed wasn’t that good. But nowadays its so perfect!

I even play competitive counter strike that way.

The stats show around 1ms. And that is network and decoding combined.

As long as you are at home, its indistinguishable from directly plugging in a mouse+keyboard and monitor.
