The depth of the stupidity of that is incredible to me.

You even get invaded by NPCs with “forbidden words” in their names. Checking whether you own game violates your criteria should be sanity check number one.

Invaded by Recusant Tanith’s Knight! -> works, it’s an NPC

Invaded by Recusant Dark K***ht Richter! -> Ugh.

And since those people keep their names like that, presumably they can’t even tell that their name is being ruined by the game. An extra layer of stupidity.

At least with stupid chat moderation, you can see your messages, so you know how your messages are being ruined and you can adapt to it.

You know, it’s not always, but apple does sell things that are price-competitive with similarly performing competing products.

Some iterations of the Mac Mini have been hard to beat with a tiny PC with similar performance.

The M1 MacBooks had some surprisingly cheap options for the relatively premium laptops they were.

Samsung’s Ultra phones tend to cost more or less the same as the Apple Pro Max phones.

The main difference is sometimes just that Apple doesn’t make low-end or low-mid-range, or sometimes not even anything below “relatively high-end”, products in a particular category.

Oh that probably helps!

I do have a few issues with it:

• the grippy texture underneath is a bit much. It holds on to grime really well and it’s a challenge to clean. I’m not sure we actually needed a grippy texture at all to begin with, but if we did, I wish ease of cleaning had been a bigger concern.
• the buttons under the controller and L2/R2 buttons are a tad too easy to press by accident.
• The L2/R2 buttons are not ergonomic enough. I can tell the intent is that I put my indexes on L1/R1 and middle fingers on L2/R2. But it’s uncomfortable to do that due to how much the L2/R2 buttons stick out. My hands just aren’t that big, and even if they were, I just don’t think it’s a very natural position to outstretch both fingers like that. It puts too much strain on the ring and little fingers. So instead I only use my indexes for both triggers. Thankfully games rarely need you to do both at once. I wish L2/R2 were lower instead of trying to be flush with L1/R1.
• I don’t play car games, so the gradual triggers are nothing but a negative to me. They reduce my effectiveness when parrying in Elden Ring, for instance. I know most people do care about car games though so I don’t know what they could have done about that without worsening reviews…

I bought one for that purpose. Realized it’s too much, the angles are so large I can’t hold it for long periods without hurting my wrists, and it’s really heavy, compounding the wrist pain issue. Also the triggers have way too much resistance.

Plus the battery life is really short.

I ended up buying an 8bitdo Ultimate. Much better.

We hadn’t heard of the game. It’s not that it won’t sell, it’s that it wasn’t advertised before now.

My company used to allow it, but then it became clear people were doing too many dumb things with their work computers to control them normally. For example, some people would explicitly turn their PCs off without updating the OS every Friday and were nearly a year out of date.

That, plus other security concerns I don’t remember surrounding the tightening of our policies for security certifications required to net a very demanding client, made it so that we needed to institute mobile device management (MDM) for everything.

We went with Microsoft’s version because there were some crucial things I forgot that only it could do. But it didn’t support Linux.

So our few people using Linux had to choose between Windows and Mac OS.

🤔🤔🔮

I don’t get it. Can someone help?

Not really on topic but wait just a gosh darn second.

This person is playing and reviewing (what might be called) the prettiest, most demanding game ever made, and they’re doing it on a Steam Deck, on Low?

But still, the visuals are the main thing they praise about it?

I’m a bit surprised? Confused? Anyway that’s a little weird.

Would that generally be enough to fix launch bugs? Genuine question; I almost always buy games when they’re over a year old.

I expected it to be popular in China, but I didn’t expect the ratio to be that skewed. Haven’t we been hearing about this game for years?

I don’t often buy new releases, especially not if I have a big backlog, but I’ve been interested in this game for quite a while.

Hey not just the EU. There are smaller initiatives in other countries, including Canada.

A few days? Depending on the person’s condition, it might turn out badly.

First, start with one day. Second, and most importantly, consult with a medical professional to make sure you don’t have any counter-indications.

I sometimes don’t even listen to the amount they say. I just hear a number and know it’s time to use my card.

I wonder how much was mistakenly charged to me over the years.

I love to eat a bowl of them for breakfast. But sometimes I have trouble waking up and don’t have time for them. Then I reach the weekend, looking forward to finally eating them… And half of them have spoiled. Damn it. I really wish they lasted longer.

Hah, that’s smart. I like that.

Also woo, dials. I hate how most ovens use capacitive buttons nowadays.

You know what happens when I stop visiting Facebook? I don’t learn anything about extended family because they don’t give a shit about me.

You know what happens when you sell not on Marketplace here? You get like 10 clicks a month and you don’t sell.

You know what happens when you message people not on Messenger? You’re the annoying person on the hipster app/sending text messages to a phone number and people don’t talk to you unless talked to first.

Also, good for you if you’re a significant enough friend to be invited personally, but no one invites me anywhere unless I show up in a list of people to invite.

I realize my comment was a bit too generalizing but holy shit dude calm down

It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy. I do use it because that’s where people are. You can’t really not do Facebook at all. You can’t talk to people on Messenger, you can’t sell stuff on Marketplace, you can’t get invited to events…

To the disappointment of evil prankers everywhere. Reminds me of “format c:”
