I’ve pretty much come to terms that i’ll either never finish it, or will play it again on an emulator eventually. As it is now, it won’t run any better on my Slim console, and i have no intention of upgrading it

This is the only post-DemonSouls game i haven’t finished :/ The frame drops in some areas gave me frequent headaches, so i only made it like a third way in

I wouldn't necessarily call these "problems". I just don't like the how the underlying functionality is designed.

For some basic modding, and installing Nexus collections, it's probably just fine, but for anything more advanced, It's too rigid. It didn't allow me the flexibility to do the things I wanted, and lacked plugin support for things I was already extensively using. My preference still lies with MO2, but of course, everyone is welcome to use the tools that work for them

I feel like the AI dubs are just a way to annoy people with ad blockers. Both on desktop, and my modded mobile client, any time i open a new video, the player forces my quality down to 144p, and turns on the first available dub

I feel like it’s just a matter of time, until they pull the rug from under lifetime subs.

But in any case, this is probably it for me. I’m not completely happy with jellyfin performance on my server, but the price hike puts me outside of what i’m willing to spend for this service. I already host it myself, and i can tunnel it myself too, if i ever decide to run it outside of my home network

My GearS3 finally kicked it, after 8 years, and my other watch is even older than that, so the more premium rePebble is actually quite appealing. If i decide to get an update, i'm still debating looking at something like the Garmin Vivoactive though

My only hope that they'll get it right this time around. NMM was a disaster all around. With the Vortex announcement, hopes went up, given that they literally hired the person who created Mod Organizer, but then it was essentially NMM round 2, with an electron shell. This looks somewhat promising, at least

That’s really great to see. I’m excited to get the game when i can

He did make those claims himself, in the past. Which of course means fucking nothing, because actions speak louder

Stuff like this should be studied in some kind of a medical facility. How do people flip their entire worldview overnight, and become colossal bigots, with the most aggressive and violent thought processes?

I’ve blocked all ads on reddit on my own terms, and have actually gone ahead and deleted my 15 year old account too 👍 They can fuck off

Are these the same "completely unattended" Amazon locations, which turned out to have thousands of what essentially were middle-eastern slaves operating the shops remotely?

I've learned from my mistakes with Google IoT. Unless I can host things myself, preferably even before the product inevitably dies, i'm not even considering it

In comparison to XC2 or 3, the recent pokemon games look like an insult, and a bad joke. I’m still mindblown by that Nintendo greenlit those releases, given how specific they are with other first-party game designs

I can’t imagine ever working on any project that large. Most of your people will essentially have zero communication with each other, and release a half-assed overbudgeted product as a result

They have no incentive to fight the voice assistant war anymore. That decisively ended in the late 2010's with no winner, because they moved onto the next buzzword technology by then. At this point, GA is just on life support, and will continue being a piece of garbage, as they remove more features from it, under the notion that the userbase is not large enough.

That makes sense. Thanks for the answer!

Potentially stupid question: Granted that we have such good vision for planets an incomprehensible distance away from us, why wouldn’t we be able to detect, with certainty, if this planet is actually present in our system? I’m guessing it would take longer to orbit around the sun, than Pluto’s 247 years, but it’d still be detectable because of the distance away from us

I don’t even know if i’m surprised, or just disappointed. It’s one thing to make a bad game, but it’s another thing to pick up a bad abandoned game, and actually make it even worse
