  • No shitty P2W mechanic bullshit.
  • Full game on release.
  • no always online requirement.
  • not completely unplayable at launch tripple A title.
  • content amount is worth its purchase value.
  • accessable or soon to be accessable on majority of gaming platforms.
  • community mod support, which drives improvements and long term playability.

And last but highly important:

  • Development transparency on what the game is and where its headed.

Linus always came off to me as one of those people who shouldn't be mangement. Idk, just watching him in videos feels frustrating, and he seemed to belittle his employees in a joking/non-joking manner.

Some of the other "techs" do seem to be very knowledgeable, and i feel bad for them to have to work under a man child.

People spend way to much time complaining about how games are not perfect in their eyes, instead of taking it at face value. They get literally outraged when a game doesn't function exactly how they want, instead of finding a game they actually enjoy.

Back in the day we'd just pick whatever looked cool at the store and hoped it was decent. People have the right to complain, but its gotten out of hand and modern gamers are whiney as all hell.

Edit: just want to clarify, I'm mainly refer to post launch and established games. If a game promises somthing and is released half baked, 100% people are in the right to complain.

"And my axe!"

Cat starring out window: " LOOK HOOMAN THERES BIRDS!"

Cat runs to back door: "lemme out, lemme out, lemme out"

lets cat outside, car vrooms past 20 seconds later

Scaredy cat gets spooked by car: "Lemme in, lemme in, lemme in"

cat proceeds to explain what i assume is a tall tale of heroics, birds, and loud mechanical beasts he defended the hoomans from

Repeat above a few times a day.

I don't know a single person nor do I think most people would hold small studios and indie devs to the same level as Larian, which has 400 people working on BG3.

What's embarrassing is the AAA devs making excuses, trying to use this concept as an excuse for half backed lackluster AAA releases. When most of them have released great games in the past. Most of which likely isn't even the individual devs (people) fault, but rather their corporate leaders and shareholders pushing for quick profits. Which has resulted in a toxic release environment.

People will hold devs accountable, and they should.

Does it have bugs, of course, nothings perfect.

Can't say too many games on the scale of BG3 came out this year that can check as many boxes. It takes GotY for me as well personally.

Unfortunately a lot of consumers don't understand this. Even if they use "pro" apps daily. These same people will fall for Apples marketing tricks here regardless.

You can track the health status of most smart enabled ssds. Can use a tool like crystal disk info

Personally i have 2 7 year old ssds going strong without issue. Mainly used for storage and games, so the r/w rates been pretty lower on them.

Ssds do have a total maximum write cycles to nand. Really depends on the use cases over the 5 years.

Man it's wild, people can have their own opinions on anything they want in any manner they want. Why you trying to gatekeep opinions. Kind weird dude.

Indica vs. Sativa: let's talk about this for a second. There's no difference between them other than how the plant itself look botanicaly. There's a common misconception there, that was mainly contributed to by myth and legend over the years. What matters is terpene and canabinoid make up of the flower of a strain. Don't shy away from trying hybrid or sativa strains.

Cannabis use also may hinder active sleep while high. Due to the psycho active properties, it can lead to the brain not wanting to enduce a REM state of sleep. That being said the come down, or "burn out", may infact help one fall into a sleep easier. This is potentially caused by a post dopamine blast a thc high gives, you're brain likes dopamine and sleep also provides this, thus triggering your brain to want to sleep.

Play around with strains with higher levels of myrcene and humulene terpenes, as they are said to help induce a tired sleep state. Also look into higher CBD% strains. It's common for dispensary weed to be high THC% with lower CBD%.

Maybe try smoking a bit more, a bit earlier before bed so you hit the burn out stage slightly earlier and with a stronger presence.

Also I'm personally not a fan of these distillate carts(unless i make and fill my own), they seem very inconsistent and who knows wth they put in there to increase viscosity. Potentially look into getting somthing like a Dr.dabber and buying concentrates like live resins/ full spectrum extracted concentrates that are not mixed into a cart solution. Might give you a more accurate/consistent result vs carts.

I'm not a doctor nor "professional" in cannabis. But I've smoked for a long time, have grown many a plant, and am a hobbiest concentrate extractor.

My money, my choice. Everyone saying otherwise can eat a bag of dicks. I'll preorder for bonuses if a game looks good, and I'll refund that purchase if it releases in a garbage state.

I must remeber the history of gaming completely differently. Noone was demanding trials. Majority of people went to a store, looked at box art, made a purchase based on the art and description on the back. Plenty of stinkers in the mix.

Trails would be nice sure, not going to deny that. But I fail to see how pre-ordering is linked to no trials lol.

The concept of needing to pre-order a digital asset is already dumb as fuck. It won't run out of stock or anything. That should be the reason to stop pre-orders, not due to a lack of arbitrary trails. Only reason I do it os the bonues or early access/head starts.

If you're on All, I guess I hope you like furry porn.

This made me lol. No hate on the furry's, but god damn I've never seen a community produce so much porn.

With most stuff being pushed to cloud based operations, it's possible. Backends still going to be all Linux and Windows Server.

If anything this might open up freedom of choice more for the end users. But I highly doubt corpos in charge would go that route. Most will just pick the cheaper option or the option that makes then look cool/is FotM.

As far as the posts relation to Apple being majority of the market for mobile devices... that's just false lol. Also the dudes kinda heavily invested in Jamf, a management suit for Apple devices, kinda a bit biased there.

It's only a deal breaker for children and those who have the mental development of a child. It's basically two children on the playground arguing that their personal favorite colour is better just because.

It logically and practically does not matter at all what colour a fucking text bubble is.

Just another possible point of failure with no real upside, beside the ability to slam it shut while on a call when angry like it is 2005 again.

Cosmetically the screen creases would anoy me.

Only use case I see valuable would be easier portability of larger screen formats. But I really never use a tablet to begin with.

I'm sure the tech will go towards better curved displays like monitors,tvs, and VR headset optics. Which are some things i maybe interested in using.

But at this point I feel it's more gimmick than anything.

For real dude, there's no decent sized mid sized pickups anymore. I drove my '99 dodge Dakota forever and loved the size! It even had a V8 compared to most of the newer land yachts with 4 bangers and v6s.

I don't need a block on wheels, I just need a smaller pickup because I camp and haul shit enough to justify needing one vs a car or suv.

More content around individual games so there feels like more of a community here. Some times its like talking into the void.

Less political respost spam from multiple bots to multiple communities at the same time. Just gets anoying to filter out after a while.

I get it's a meme, but it should be "Toxic gamers".

A competitive game, in a competitive mode usually attracts competitive people. These people want to win, are playing to win, etc. This is the enviroment made for that. People complaing in non competitive modes are just toxic people.

But it's also toxic to enter a competitive mode as a casual, cause a loss for your teammates, then blame it on " I just play to have fun XD".

Bad sportsmanship = toxic

Competition != toxic

Do you mean combustion vs. vaporisation? Because you can run a dry herb vape through a bong no problem.

Damn, we shoulda listened to Alex Jones about the fluoride afterall...

Theres a few:

  • yeah, don't buy PC parts and wow gold with those bitcoins you will mine in 2011...

  • watch out for the fallen tree at the bottom of the hill on the bike path, your breaks don't work very well.

  • some older kid will decide to bully you, but dont let it bother you so much. Loser ends up unaliving himself via drunk driving into a wall later on.

  • oh also don't take your ps1 and gamecube collection to EB games for trade in, you only get 3 xbox 360 games out of the deal and will regret it.

Same here in Canada. I think its legitimate learners. Not sure why you think age has anything to do with it, theres no max age to learn to drive. Hell, my late grandma didn't get her licence/learners permit until she was in her 60s.

Could be related to an influx of immigrations as well, plenty of people didn't have the luxury to get a drivers licence or own a vehicle.

That or people are just too lazy to remove them haha.

I enjoy super mario world. Games primo mario action. Super mario RPG is great as well.

OOT and SM64 are great play throughs, and if you're interested in learning some speed run tech it can expand the fun.

PS2, you gotta play some GTA vice city and San Andreas. Shadow of the colossus is great.

Careful Tenno, the warframe rabbit hole is a deep one. You may not see the light of day for a while.

  1. They whom smeltith, Dealtith.

You're correct in your assumptions, they are just essentially locking "China Net" down more / "upgrading" it.

Lol! ^ When you download the wrong episode of Star Trek off limewire O.O

Galaxy Note 10+.

I'm a big dude, with massive hands and it's the first phone I've used that doesn't give me finger cramps after extended use.

It's still a snappy phone with a good load of ram(12gb), great for multi tasking, has the pen (reduced my sticky note habit by a ton haha) and removable SD storage.

Wish it had an aux port still, have some old pairs of headphones I'd like to use without a dongle. Battery life is starting to go a bit on me, but I did buy it day one. Thankfully I can just replace that myself when I need to ( electronics repair background). I do miss having an IR blaster like my S4 had, used it for all sorts of remotes.

Are they both using the same SSID or sperate?

If you search your phone for wifi priority you can set a preference.

If the same SSID, it should automatically swap to the highest connection strength AP. Depending on the networking hardware you might beable to addjust single strength. They could be overlapping, and reducing singal overlap may help the phone determine what AP it wants a bit easier.

Mattress. Spend the extra to get the one that feels best for you if it comes down to that being part of the purchase decision. Thank me later.

Retrotink has been a life saver for me getting all my retro consoles hooked up to my new tv.

I remember an apology being issued about it iirc.

Personally, I'm fine with mtx if it supports continual development of a game i paid for and enjoyed prior to them being added. As long as the actual meaningful game additions are free or 1-time transactions.

What i don't like is constant FOMO based p2w mechanics that are a requirement to play in any meaningful way, like most mobile time walled games. I also don't like when corpos make decisions like adding DRM to an always online game, that is known to impact users, just points to a devs inability or a monetary kick back of said 3rd party drm to the devs shareholders.

Shitty situation overall however :(

Breh you really gotta spam this in every community + twice in the USA community?

I don't drink any more for the same reasons. There's plenty of people who don't drink at all due to whatever choices like religion, health, etc.

If people ask I just say "nah I don't drink because of health complications" 99.9% of people don't push any further. I just order water or a soda if I'm feeling it. What im drinking isn't anyone's concern.

The weird part is thinking you're appearing weird. Literally noone cares. Go have fun.

Big chickens, big cats, big squirrels, big whatever the fuck that thing is. Better kill or capture them using my big sword.
