  • Our product’s value is 100% speculative and owning it means nothing! No, wait…

  • This is the correct answer. Whatever long term thinking we are capable of is a result of the most recently evolved parts of our brain.

  • I mean, saying “yes” to some of their ideas will kill them a lot

  • I know, right?! I remember downloading a demo (or popping in a demo disc) that let you play like one mission or a set amount of time in a game. In the era of 120 GB downloads why can’t I download like 5 GB of the game and try it first?! The only answer I can come up with is that, much like the charlatans of old, they know a lot of it is shit so they have to grab your money and run.

  • Not everything is about Nazis, Boinkage, geez…

  • I just figured with Lemmy’s interest in politics it seemed like an obvious example. I threw in the car because I didn’t want to be that guy who makes everything about nazis…

  • All I want is a way to rent PC games before I buy them. Gamepass kinda works for that, but I REALLY don’t want yet another subscription service. I suppose I could buy them from Steam and request a refund if I don’t like it, but I hate paying that kind of money up front and downloading a 100 GB game just to turn around and refund it.

  • You’d have to firm up your definition of car and vehicle before you could decide that one. Does a hot wheels car count as a car? Does a vehicle have to be large enough to move people or freight?

  • If Nazi, then fascist = true

    Fascist, if and only Nazi = not true

    If car, then vehicle = true

    Vehicle if and only if car = not true

  • Most of the parts for my last 2 builds have been from Micro Center, but if I’m just buying one or two components I hit up my local Best Buy first, and then Newegg if Best Buy doesn’t have what I want.

  • I hope you’re right. Republicans in Congress have already fucked up America’s support. I don’t want Ukraine to lose any more support.

  • I’m not from the UK so my point of view means nothing, but I hope a Labour government will still support Ukraine. From my limited understanding it seems the Tories have been a domestic nightmare, but opposing Russian aggression is a policy I support.

  • I use rechargeable AAs and AAAs in all of my remotes, controllers, mice, etc, and the kids’ toys are so chaotic that I wouldn’t put anything in them I wasn’t willing to lose, so the batteriser has literally no value to me. I’m sure I’m not the only one.

  • I used to work at Sears, and I could never figure out how a company that found its initial success in a catalog business didn’t immediately see the opportunities the internet presented. Now Sears is all but gone, and Bezos gets to go to space with Shatner :(

  • It’s been so long since I used it that I can’t remember if I had it wired or wireless. I’ll have to break it out and try it again.

  • So we’ve gone from “I can’t be racist because I have black friends,” to “I can’t be racist because I used to have black friends?”

  • I bought one back in the day but always had input/video lag. Does yours work smoothly?
