I’ve never used Twitter and have no interest in social media but I signed up for Bluesky because I have hated Twitter for 15 years. Also I appreciate that Bluesky has almost no data collection and no tracking. That’s cool.

SMASH CAPITALISM

I think I paid 40USD for both of my Dualsense controllers, but both on a heady sale.

Never played Icarus, will look into it!

Palworld was surprisingly fun. I think Valheim is actually my number one, followed by Enshrouded.

I love survival games but both my partner and I hated Raft.

Valheim is one of the best survival games ever. Love it.

Praise Kitboga!

100% of the time when I’m working at home, More Kitboga is playing on my other screen. I’m so happy there’s more Crowpro now!

Oh absolutely. I rarely bust mine out anymore even though it has every game hahaha (modded and R4 for DS games.) Can’t beat a nice round of Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! or the second one, though!

Yep! Doesn’t touch the screen at all. It snaps right in, too! Made Monster Hunter playable for me hahaha

If you rip out the C-Stick and replace it with a PSP-1000 joystick, it makes it actually usable!

I upgraded to a New 3DS XL for Monster Hunter because I needed the control nub for camera control. The viewing angle with eye tracking is SO MUCH BETTER.

I did rip out the control nub and replace it with a PSP joystick, improving it vastly.

I started with 3rd and I completely agree with you. It’s so confusing and shit to get into, I technically started with the first PSP game but I played for like 40 minutes. Then I met a friend who became be first friend and he taught me how to play, and I ended up LOVING the games. They’re all some of my favorite games now. GU is my favorite. World is second. 4u is third.

Do you legitimately think software you run does not know what hardware it’s running on?

If so, I can’t help you.

Oh I super agree with you! The question was “does Steam know what your hardware is without consenting to a survey” and the answer is “yes absolutely Steam does!”

Also your last paragraph? I know software and I think you’re too lenient hahahaha

I don’t even use phone apps unless they have almost zero permissions.

…Introduction to Software Design?

I mean… they haaaaave all of your specs. They just keep them private unless you consent to the survey.

Everything you run has your specs.

Androids/sheep was so good

Everything is such a mess. This site has been pretty lovely, compared to basically any others.

It shows—you certainly have a way with words.

You and I had the same experience and the way you describe Digg’s life is nothing short of poetry.

Also fuck MrBabyMan.

Ooh I’d be great at that. I was trying to buy a pan on Amazon (I know…) and I scrolled past the reviews… without reading any of the words, I identified the first review I saw (not the LLM-generated summary, an actual review) as being LLM trash. I immediately said “AI” to my partner and we read it… they laughed when it ended up being OBVIOUS AI trash. I can tell by the shape of how words are laid out at this point apparently hahaha

Unfortunately for me… your powers don’t work on me. They’re a full necessity D:
