BigVault, to games in What games have you been playing recently
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

Started playing Starfield and it really made me want to revisit fallout 4, I’m now deep back into a new play through of Fo4 with 22 hours played in the last 2 weeks. Really enjoying it again.

Anyway, another settlement needs my help….

BigVault, to technology in You can no longer activate new Windows 11 builds with Windows 7 or 8 keys; maybe last chance to activate using Windows 7 or 8 keys, for 22H2.

I’m going to fully assess what actual windows software I rely on any more and migrate all of my systems to a Linux based os this weekend I think.

The amount of games that I play that work on my Steam deck already confirms that I’ll be fine there.

I probably spin up a windows vm that I could remote into from my homelab if I’ve missed anything I do need to run.

BigVault, to games in Epic Games Cutting 870 Jobs, 16 Percent Of Its Workforce, also selling Bandcamp
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

In the not too distant future:

Today we’re announcing we’re ending support for Bandcamp and merging it to YouTube music….

BigVault, to RedditMigration in Looks like Reddit is removing the ability to opt out of personalized advertisements.
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

I love the fact that both my ublock origin & pihole detect and block absolutely no trackers when I’m on kbin (I’m sure the lemmy users are just as fortunate).

Another shit Reddit moment, I’ve not missed it at all.

BigVault, to technology in YouTube is axing its ad-free Premium Lite subscription plan - The Verge
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

I've posted it repeatedly but I'd like to add the (paid extension) Vinegar extension as a recommendation for iOS Safari.
Enable extension, add YT to home screen and stop seeing ads.
Combined with Banish for Safari - stopping the "open in app" popups on websites, my online experience is golden.

BigVault, to games in Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition - Announcement Trailer | PS5 and PC (Epic and Steam early 2024)
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

Got rid of my Xbox and PS5 as I was sick of having to pay out for subs (PSN/XBL) so I'll gladly take any of the PS5 games that Sony offer on PC, even if we have to wait a while.

Good to see the Sony exclusives still coming.

BigVault, to technology in Google Podcasts to shut down in 2024 with listeners migrated to YouTube Music
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

I ended up recovering some of my music using Google takeout which in turn absolutely wrecked most of the tags on my songs.

BigVault, to technology in Google Podcasts to shut down in 2024 with listeners migrated to YouTube Music
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

I loved Google play music as a locker for my owned music and a a storefront to buy what I wanted. YouTube Music made me abandon it completely and move my owned music onto my plex server.

Why does Google have to ruin everything? Still bitter about Google Reader closing back in the day. That was the beginning of the end of me having confidence in their services and moving to self hosting as much as I can.

BigVault, to worldnews in Time to ditch Amazon Prime?
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

We already pay for prime, all this will do is make me watch the shows I already pay for from my Unraid server.

BigVault, to asklemmy in Lemmy users, who is the worst person you've ever known?
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

We was all at lunch one day at work and one of the supervisors came in and asked someone to do something when we finished lunch.

This particular nasty shit told him this was our break and to piss off. No one particularly found that necessary.

Supervisor guy apologised for disturbing our break, explaining he’s sorry and that it was the anniversary of his wife’s passing and he wasn’t thinking straight. He wasn’t one to disturb us on break normally.

The arsehole then replied to the supervisor something along the lines of “we don’t bring our problems in work and neither should you, so fuck off”

When the supervisor left, we all let the guy know what an arsehole he was for doing that.

Possibly one of the worst people I’ve ever worked with. He eventually got fired for posting derogatory stuff on Facebook about the job/people he worked with and the supervisor we worked with had a lovely retirement send off when he hit his old age.

Fallout 3 remaster?
Yes please.

BigVault, to android in Google says it can’t fix Pixel Watches, please just buy a new one
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

To be honest, I’d prefer they did that.

Faster turnaround for the consumer and the old unit get put into the pool for the next refurb.

BigVault, to android in Google says it can’t fix Pixel Watches, please just buy a new one
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

I’m so close to going pixel again but stuff like this really bothers me.

I’d hope that if they did exchange the watch, they’d at least refurb the broken one that was handed in.

BigVault, to technology in Humble Bundle expressing their feelings about Unity
@BigVault@kbin.social avatar

I much prefer written guides for anything that interests me over YouTube videos that are unnecessarily long. Plus the false attempts to get engagement (sometimes by making statements that are maliciously stupid) to appease the algorithm like:

What are your preferred ways to consume content? I prefer carrier pigeon, it’s easily the best. Let me know in the comments below if you have a preferred way, and don’t forget to like and subscribe.

Really annoying, like our sponsor….
