Just finished the new Riven remake, pretty cool game, now continuing High on Life, and Ghostwire Tokio

Sadly because it works, mobile gaming is bigger money-wise than PC and consoles combined, all because people are susceptible to short term dopamine hit your can buy any time, it’s a part of what we call enshittification, making the product less user friendly and make more money, shareholders are happy, your don’t have to

I was sucked up big time by Project Hail Mary, the Children of Time series is nice too, currently reading the third book, had to stop reading Hyperion because Sol Weintraub’s story made me cry uncontrollably (as a father), A Canticle for Leibowitz is nice, highly recommend The Swarm by Frank Schatzing, seems kinda boring, but it was highly captivating read for me, highly accurate fact wise and the main premise is a very interesting idea

yeah, but it’s dialogue, when what you’re saying is met with disagreement you stop talking, though in many cases it’s misunderstanding, people not getting the joke or what I want to convey (not native English speaker here BTW), generally i find people here more ideology-driven and rarely getting the jokes, than on reddit, it was more loose back there (mandatory fuck spez obvs)

of course, i posted this as a joke (like “thanks Obama”), i really doubt his review had anything to do with the company going bankrupt, but seeing the downvotes i’ll really think twice before commenting

THANKS MKBHD

It’s Fiskars

…just never connect it to the internet i guess? you have cable or aerial, right?

Maybe I’m old but I’ll never buy a live service game, I mean I don’t like to play with people anyway, but there are multiple solo games with a bunch of MTX in the top of AAA price and they can shut down servers any time, and that’s stupid

Ok, exchange that for the hospital for life sentence that GTA VI leaker got, he’s autistic too

Design aside I still cannot fathom why people are so excited about Mediatek phone, I mean, while performance is not bad, the efficiency is shit on Mediatek SoCs

BTW what is this site anyway? Does anyone have problems scrolling or is it just me?

The Swarm by Frank Schätzing, I was glued to the book, A Canticle for Leibowitz is nice, Project Hail Mary was awesome, Martian too

Yeah, you have a point here

So like almost all AI renditions in pop culture, the only way to stop wars is to exterminate humanity

You don’t need AI to do that, seriously, such a buzzword where a relatively simple algorithm would suffice, don’t tell me it’s harder than double pendulums or those ball bouncing contraptions tech students make since a decade or more

I heard about the game but didn’t know it came out already, maybe marketing was insufficient, wouldn’t buy it though, don’t have any VR hardware anyway

I don’t mind ads and suggested pages that are vaguely related to my interests, but aside from obscene manga and obvious fake baits for horny men (seriously I watch my porn in private tabs), I’m not interested in groups as exotic as “car spotting Philippines” or “my dream mud house in Congo”

Just look at Facebook, yesterday I was spammed by sites with AI fakes of Scarlett Johansson, reported them all, this morning Billie Eilish with biiiig boobs in suggestive positions, reported, now I’m being bombarded by Alexandra Daddario obvious fakes, it’s getting ridiculous

Yeah, tried replaying first Soul Reaver, I just couldn’t, it felt clunky af

Yup, definitely server side problem as I see it on sync
