  • Dawg you gotta be a troll if you think I'm "disconnected from the real world" just because I know that better specs is why the steam deck can handle modern games and the switch can't. Also I said that we don't know what the switch 2 will cost, and that I'd be surprised if it was that low. Don't put words in my mouth.

  • 'Being Good at sports has no value. It's like saying 'he can see colors better than other people' but that would have applications. There’s no value to society in having athletes around in their current iteration. And if your point is ‘but it is entertaining’ I have to say that there are better time sinks that would leave you with experience and skills instead of watching people play dumb sports.

    'Being Good at art has no value. It's like saying 'he can see colors better than other people' but that would have applications. There’s no value to society in having artists around in their current iteration. And if your point is ‘but it is entertaining’ I have to say that there are better time sinks that would leave you with experience and skills instead of watching people paint dumb pictures or sing stupid songs.

    'Being Good at acting has no value. It's like saying 'he can see colors better than other people' but that would have applications.

    Want me to go on or nah

  • No, it's just straight up misinformation, or at least a disingenuous oversimplification.

    The base model steam deck is $400 (and you can get steam-certified refurbished ones for even cheaper), and we don't know the price of the Switch 2 yet. If it comes with even some of the hardware upgrades that have been leaked, I very much doubt it'll retail for as low as $350.

  • Nah, you're not giving the steam deck nearly enough credit. It fills a very similar niche to the switch - a viable mobile gaming option that can also be readily used for couch gaming. You don't need a large steam library to get use out of that, just like how the average switch owner probably only has a few switch games.

  • Some of the animations are definitely janky (looking at you, Punisher jumping off your lil zip line), the visual clarity is worse than OW (although maybe that's just a symptom of how much I've played OW vs. MR), and it just has a bit less polish than OW.

    That being said, there's something about MR that feels nostalgic, like early OW1, and I've been having a blast with it. Shorter match and queue times are certainly a big factor too.

  • You're couching it as Linux "killing desktop features", when really it's just Linux removing one ancient, insecure driver for which there is a modern, secure alternative. And it's not like Linux is wiping the driver off the face of the planet. If you want to reintroduce the ancient, insecure driver back into your system, there are extensive instructions on compiling your own kernel with whatever you want in it.

  • Honestly? Probably not. Pornhub is far and away the best porn site out there in terms of selection, ease of use, speed, and most importantly, they have the least annoying ads of any porn site I've ever been to. Other porn sites really don't even come close

  • they wouldn't have picked a rich handsome guy in his mid 20s.

    Why not? Luigi Mangione is closer to pleb status than billionaire status. He's not in the class that the police protect, why would they have any qualms about framing him?
