Man, that’d be sweet.

Counterpoint: fuck off

It was a deal where you could spend $100 and get two vouchers for two games.

And since games often were priced at $59.99 (in the switch 1 days), you essentially saved $20 on two games.

However, the vouchers didn’t work on everything all the time. But if there were a couple of games you wanted anyway, it was a pretty good deal.

Just what I want: file explorer to load even slower than it does now.

“We could hold a certain percentage of our supply off to the side for consumers so they can afford our products and have a backup for when the AI bubble bursts, but nah let’s just fuck everyone because line is going up right now and MBA brain means that’s all that matters.”

Last year they started that up.

They still have free articles, though, and they label them on the home page which are which.

Yeah, same.

It’s not terrible, but it feels like it’s slowly becoming worse as they add new garbage. And especially if they start forcing a bunch of AI shit I’m out.

But I think a lot of people brush it off outright without really using it. Or, because it’s Lemmy, anything that’s not linux = bad.

I have learned this over the last week. I got it on sale just after Christmas and basically spent the whole week playing it.

I think I’ve done like 1 of the main quests and have just been fucking around with side quests. But it’s been so fun.

Too late, I’m fully stuck in on Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 and I do not have room for anything else in the “big, open world RPG with swords and armor and shit” genre.

We always heard that this would be China’s century, and for the most part I assumed “maayybe. We’ll see. It’d take a while for the US to decline.”

Little did I know the US would very quickly shoot both its feet off on its own.

I thought that if China were to become the dominant country it’d be through years and years of steady growth while the US was doing the same. They’d just end up overtaking in the long run — not that the US would actively sabotage itself via bigotry and stupidity and greed.

Complete self own. And everyone in charge is a giant coward. We could start righting the ship today, but all the elected gop (and some dem) officials are greedy cowards.

I literally finished E33 a couple of hours ago, and while I do think it’s a quality game, I just couldn’t really connect with it on any emotional level. I do like the combat system. It’s fun. But the story just didn’t really grab me. I have friends saying they cried at certain scenes, and I’m just like, “Really?”

Meanwhile I got some fat tears flowing during Death Stranding 2. But everyone is different.

Plus, while E33 has really good art direction, on the PS5 every environment seemed to have this haze going on. And there were lots of weird graphical flashes of artifacts or lighting. The game looks good and also doesn’t in a way. It’s hard to describe.

Sad my GOTY Death Stranding 2 didn’t win anything. But oh well. I hadn’t played Clair yet so I started it today. It’s good so far. Don’t know if it’ll top my Norman Reedus with a Fetus* yet though.

I actually think it’s time to retire flute guy. I think flute guy has jumped the shark, bringing in pvc pipe whatever instruments that you can’t even hear. You had your time in the sun flute guy.

Overall, I thought the show was OK. They need better pacing on when they are actually giving out awards. It seemed like there was a stretch of an hour where no awards were announced.

And I agree with the whole of the internet that the last trailer was a fat lot of nothing. Sorry to that team for working on a “dead” genre for years. I only say “dead” because by this point everyone has picked their game they like in that genre, and trying to add a new one right now is a terrible idea.

Give me some WOODKID performing songs from Death Stranding 2.

I need a good cry.

Honestly, if I was really into AC still I’d be ok paying for the work of some devs of a five year old game if it made some good quality of life upgrades.

JJ Abrams?

The Star Wars JJ Abrams?

I think just general UI stuff across at least the homepage

• Some buttons that wrap touch each other
• There’s a banner at the top (since I don’t have an account) that has weird, off-center margins
• When I first went to the site I guess the Explore dropdown didn’t load so it was an empty dropdown (though it’s now populated so that may have been a one off network request issue)
• If I have scrolled down the page a bit, every time I click an item in the main nav (like Explore) the page scrolls up by about 15 pixels for some reason
• The Piefed logo isn’t horizontally centered with the actual nav items so the text doesn’t line up correctly

This is obviously using Bootstrap to handle the UI, and that’s fine. I’m not knocking that necessarily. But it’s a little jank and rough around the edges. These are things I noticed in, like, 30 seconds.

And this isn’t to say that Lemmy.world is perfect or anything. And I don’t really use the desktop site for Lemmy. I just use Voyager on my pc. But even the Lemmy site feels a little more solid, if that makes sense (even if Lemmy.world is also using Bootstrap).

This is the first I’ve heard of piefed, and so I’m just browsing the desktop site. It’s kinda jank, to be honest.

I feel like I got my car at the perfect time:

It has Android Auto and CarPlay, and it’s a manual so there’s no way for it to turn on or off remotely.

Now I just have to make sure it survives until I die.
