  • Of course they did. It doesn't take any kind of abuse of the browser to do that. It's all on the website side and everyone does that.

    Ban most data gathering websites do. But this has literally zero to do with the browser.

  • I'm not talking about passing monitors through. I'm talking about having multiple virtual monitors in your field of view.

    A shitty virtual 1080p screen taking your entire field of view is not even vaguely capable of being used for productivity purposes. It's not remotely close. The whole point of multiple physical displays is to have a meaningful amount of information directly visible at once.

  • So, not really what I'm interested in. It's definitely not "what an open world Pokemon should have been" without the core turn based combat that defines Pokemon games.

    It does kind of look like it has potential despite not enjoying survival games, but it's weird to be calling it Pokemon when it doesn't have the mechanics and the similarity looks like just the fact that you have little monster friends.

  • That's just the cost of doing business.

    The system now is that you have to call them, get bombarded with ads and berated by their customer service for an hour, then maybe they'll think about cancelling you. And gyms are even worse.

  • I know Sony supports the triggers on their ports (only wired, but I don't like the latency of Bluetooth anyways, so that's how I use them on PC anyways), but I don't know if third parties offer parity between platforms. I haven't been in a position to consider that yet. I've only had the PS5 a few months and my purchases have been exclusives and sports games that are windows only to run root kits on PC.

    In terms of anti-features, you need plus for online, to back up your saves, and I think you can't get digital keys for anything but the games they bundle with consoles.

  • They've really streamlined the process. I just checked, and it will let you save the last 30 minutes of gameplay after the fact. Random sample of quality, though streamable probably compresses it too It also has a a slot for just a standard nvme pcie 4 SSD that's as simple as sliding a side panel off, and between the hardware decompression and the universal nature of using their APIs, loading is blazing fast. It's not quite as fast for PS4 games without the software support for the new capabilities, but it's a complete gamechanger for games that used to punish me with a 5+ minute loading screen when I died, making playing at the difficulty I prefer an extremely frustrating exercise at times.

    I won't buy a game on PS5 over PC or anything. Unless it uses the PS5 triggers, but only on PS5, maybe. The controller is the shit. But it's sincerely a nice piece of hardware. You trade a couple freedoms I'd rather not, but it's overall pretty nice and a big step forward for gaming (especially as the consoles set the standard for what developers do, and having real CPUs enables a lot more mechanics).
