It's confusing, the gameplay looks smooth enough, little inconstant but not unplayable. The cut scenes look like they're 7 frames a second.

As I get older I've grown to just appreciate comfort over precision. I don't play competitive multiplayer, in fact the only multiplayer I play is COD zombies with some buddies once a week. And we all suck anyways so we're just having a laugh. I'd much rather just lean back in my chair with a controller.

I've got one on the way Best Buy screwed up the pre-order and didn't get enough stock in so I'm left waiting. But yea seems like by all accounts it's roughly the size of a regular phone plus you get a small tablet when you want.

This is why they rarely pull your whole library, it's too noticeable and all these services have is public faith they're going to still be there. More often the case you'll just lose access to a purchase here and there and usually goes undetected especially if you have a large collection.

Yea Audible too. I can't remember the name of the tool but you can connect to your account and it pulls all your purchases locally DRM free. It was handy for setting up Audiobookshelf

So what you're saying is we need to go back and hunt down Richard BMW

Exactly. I wish these types of posts would change "music these days" to "pop these days" because that's what they're talking about.

It's debatable when pop actually began but pop as we know it really codified in the 80s with dawn of MTV and acts like Madonna and Michael Jackson. The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Queen, etc were popular but I wouldn't classify any of this as Pop. Pop has always been pretty people because it was by its nature tied to a visual medium.

People need to stop using Pop as a stand in for all music. We have more access to music than ever before and a lot of the music I listen to regularly, I have no idea what they look like.

Just don't connect it to the internet and it's a dumb display, simple as that

Yea I've got a 65" OLED with Dolby Vision. I'd have a hard time going back to anything else. But why even worry about smart features at all when an offline TV is effectively the same as a monitor anyway for less money and more entertainment specific features.

They're a small studio with a small budget. They probably didn't have the skills and money. The success of the game on Steam would have given them the resources to do this.

My biggest fear was arriving at the app store and seeing the word free. Glad to see there's still people making games where you just pay and get the game.

Long story short they turn songs into digital fingerprints, where it can be stored in a tiny way. When you start recording you're making a fingerprint as well. Then it just starts testing yours against its database.

Looks like that comment is gone now

The Leftovers. If I were to ever put together a top 10 list of personal favorites, this would be at the top then in a distant second I could start ranking the rest. I love how fully realized its concepts were. I love how it stuck true to its convictions right up to the end. I love the mashup of science fiction and fantasy and grief and contemporary life. I love the beautiful Max Richter score. For a show that starts pretty bleak in the first few episodes you really feel the love and warmth by the end of the series and the discovery of inner piece.

I always like to add this caveat to anyone jumping in, the first half of season one can be tough. Episode 3 is a good taste of what the show is at its best and episode 6 is one of the best in the series and the point where most people are fully hooked.

Memes no, but I've found a lot of value in things like my hometown has a pretty active sub on Reddit which is useful for local information or subs around specific TV shows or video games bring a lot of interesting discussion or just asking questions on niche topics I'm much more likely to get an answer from a larger user base.

This for sure. It's something severely lacking at Lemmy, without the large user base the small communities can't sustain the way they do on Reddit. Lemmy serves best as a replacement for the biggest subs.

Biggest thing I miss about the old Pixels was this because you could swipe it to pull the notifications bar down. It worked system wide so you could during a game or video just pop it down to check time or settings and just flick it away without moving your hand to the top of the phone.

It definitely does, it pulls satellite data of the whole world

Girl Talk in 09 in Vancouver. We were early at the venue and they were selecting a few people to be up on stage for the whole show. Never sweat so hard in my life.

PSN account is free, you probably already have one if you owned one of the last 3 PlayStation consoles. There are paid add-ons if you want the multiplayer or the gamepass like subscription.

Edit

What's with all the downvotes, it's literally an answer to the question. You fellas mad I didn't editorialize the information with personal opinions?
