BudgetBandit,

Does it make someone a racist if they hate all this speech about white supremacy?

BudgetBandit,

That‘s it! I’m also easily offended by how easily people are offended.

BudgetBandit,

I was thinking on telling it now, but it would just be over everyone’s head.

BudgetBandit,

Thinking men use desktops and women use laptops is genderphobic! Everyone knows men use gaming pcs that are visable on the table while women have their phone.

BudgetBandit,

And finite lives was bad. Like super Mario world on the snes. The only penalty for running out of lives was that you start at the beginning of the level and not at the checkpoint.

BudgetBandit,

I just finished xenosaga episode 1 and it was way better executed than starfield. Starfield felt like chores while Xenosaga managed that I tuned in completely.

BudgetBandit,

I have a Mac, so it’s running since the last update and until the next update.

BudgetBandit,

Actually MacOS is designed to do that. Frequent Off-On turning is bad for the longevity and speed. They created some sort of background program that does essentially the same as our brain and gets rid of all the waste that built up during the day. And it draws only 1 - 3 watts / hour, that‘s 3 ~ 10 google searches or 0.4 ChatGPT requests

BudgetBandit,

F-droid just has regular apps you find in the play store doesn’t it? Wouldn’t that made it illegal?

BudgetBandit,

Oh okay got it. I usually pirated and then sometimes bought the apps up front back in the days. Nowadays I only use android for handheld emulation, nothing else.

BudgetBandit,

So… no AI and just regular NPCs. I hate the way everyone wants to be hip and cool and groovy by using that two letters.

BudgetBandit,

It’s not just about being crippled. The spell „Resurrection“ closes all mortal wounds and restores missing body parts. It will also uncircumcise the Jewish priest, removing all his powers.

BudgetBandit,

IMHO as long as no new random “neurons” form, it’s not AI as in Artificial Intelligence, just “a lot of ifs”

BudgetBandit,

I mean, I get it.

But throwing that 2D Zelda remake-ish 3D graphics on it and sell it for $70 would be great, considering the fan base this game has all over the world.

BudgetBandit,

Take a rubber band and shoot it as a projectile. If it hurts, multiply it by 12 and that’s how much a bullet would hurt.

BudgetBandit,

It’s called short term planning and profit maximization of a game on life support. Gamigo has been doing this since 2010.

BudgetBandit,

This actually is the broadest audience of those who watch YouTube. And it’s the same for me. I use private relay, incognito mode, a cookie less browser and still get shown about the same as you get, but more European-esque. Like some YouTuber cooking or whatever.

BudgetBandit,

I actually like that. It reminds me of those liminal spaces.

BudgetBandit,

Next you’re telling me that LMFAO is called “ellem eff ayo” and not "le mfaao“

BudgetBandit,

It’s okayish. I’ve run into a couple of problems with some itch.io titles while running it in a virtual MacBook Air M1 8GB RAM off an external SSD, but most things that do run, run decent.

Parody of a youtube popup:

Going to pee during the ad break violates YouTube's Terms of Service

- It looks like you selfishly left the room while our ads were playing. Don't you know that by watching youtube you entered a CONTRACT?!

- We killed the competition by operating at a loss for a decade. We paid good money to be the only game in town.

- Now that there are no other options, we can start to make that money back however we like. So turn your webcam on so that our advertisers know you're paying attention.

(Two buttons, first one made to stand out)

Let us program your brain

Foot the bill directly
BudgetBandit,

With that power comes great responsibility. If they implement it, they are evil. If they don’t use it but have fees so high that others can not use it without going bankrupt, they are less evil.

BudgetBandit,

Yay. More generic unoriginal games with procedurally generated huge open worlds that all look the same and bad quests / dialogues that just exist for the sake of existing.

BudgetBandit,

No brother. We are the 6th mass extinction. This is just another phase.

Next phase after CO2 pollution will be acid rain.

BudgetBandit,

So do the new posts and everything. But Reddit is a shithole and Omegle got sued to death, online gaming is either a full time job or a money sink, streaming services start to cancel out each other and most of the regular games and their performance suck ass.

Guess I’ll just be productive then.

BudgetBandit,

Haha i recently got $ 120 worth of converters to get HDMI to SCART to play those old games the way they’re meant to be played.

Extra bought a 16:9 Sony Triniton CRT TV for that.

Output to input: MacBook Air M1 - USB-C - HDMI - YPbPr - RGB (or RCA, the three cables) - SCART - TV

BudgetBandit,

Technically yes. In reality it’s just 2 “real” converters who both need their own power supply. Once from digital to HD analogue, and then from that to SD. For input lag, it’s a lot less than the 20 ms of input lag the HDMI 2 input of my Sony Bravia TV.

BudgetBandit,

Whenever I’m at the beach I expect seagulls to take my stuff. I’m also on high alert to just grab them and throw them away. They can’t hurt more than geese.🪿

BudgetBandit,

I only got 1 big tooth so no floss for me

BudgetBandit,

Dad (turning to daughter) "are you pregnant already?“

BudgetBandit,

Just… make your own egg nog?

You literally just heat up 6 yolks, some vanilla of choice, 150g (maybe 3/4 cups?) sugar in a double bath, whisk until creamy, add 300g cream (about 10 1/2 fluid ounces?) and like 150g rum (my preferred thing) or milk (roughly 0.6 cups?) and whist for 5 minutes.

Oh yeah, and let it cool or top with whipped cream and cinnamon and enjoy hot. feel free to use lactose free alternatives.

BudgetBandit,

Wait they made left shark a character???

BudgetBandit,

As someone from another side of the world 🌎 I have to say that it was quite funny. Like a memexplosion. Granted, he did fuck up everything possible, thus strengthened everyone else.

The only good thing he attempted was a TikTok ban. Should’ve been a short video ban

BudgetBandit,

I honestly bought a docking station just yesterday because I forgot about the ‚murican purge

BudgetBandit,

🇺🇸 Go 🇺🇸 America 🇺🇸 do 🇺🇸 something 🇺🇸

BudgetBandit,

I drive a Cabriolet and smell every damn beat-up car, be it faulty electronics or fumes.

BudgetBandit,

Wrong answer: Researches who are blind in both eyes only give the medication to participants who are also blind in both eyes, thus making them unable to read the patient information leaflet.

Correct answer: It is a research design in which both the participants and the researchers are unaware of who is receiving the treatment and who is in the control group

BudgetBandit,

I honestly don’t see Super Mario 64 as that good nowadays. I’ve grown up with it, and I love it, but it certainly has its flaws.

I’ve grown up with it, playing it hundreds of hours on my uncle‘s N64, which then got mine. It just… the levels are bland. They each have their special theme, but, except some small sections in 4 levels (and the bowser levels) there isn’t much platforming going on, it’s mostly running.

And believe me when I say that I hated 2D platformers for over 20 years. They were just outdated and just for gameboys for me since we had 3-fucking-D.

I still don’t think that the 2D Mario games are as good as media says they are, but I enjoy them.

And please don’t rant about graphics. I haven’t played Wonders yet, but style is better than graphics. Take WindWaker for example: it got hated for its style back in the days but still looks good today.

As for SMGalaxy and Galaxy2: they were a-may-zing. I didn’t play Galaxy2 that much when it came out, I’ve only beaten it once and then sold it to GameStop because I was dumb.

BudgetBandit,

The German says: Add sandals.

New Outlook update sends passwords and mails on private servers to MS. Ulrich Kelber, TheCommissioner for Data Protection of Germany plans to submit inquires on Tuesday (www.heise.de)

Microsoft is singing the praises of the new Outlook and wants to persuade users to switch. But beware: if you try out the new Outlook, you risk transferring your IMAP and SMTP credentials of mail accounts and all your emails to Microsoft servers. Although Microsoft explains that it is possible to switch back to the previous apps...

BudgetBandit,

Guess I’ll switch to an iCloud mail account with a separate private relay forward-mail for every other account then.

BudgetBandit,

The DM said

"It‘s just a goblin cave! You’ll be out in no time!“

and the adventurers stepped foot into the entrance to hell

BudgetBandit,

Ah dayum this just made me remember one of my first sessions back when I went to this hall for beginners. On one table the faint sound of the Skyrim theme started to play and one from my table jumped up, pointed to that table and screamed "YOU GUYS ARE FIGHTING A DRAGON???“

BudgetBandit,

Close to 30, stopped aging at 22

BudgetBandit,

Yea the team really loves this game, they made it good

BudgetBandit,

I sure hope it (matrix) doesn’t go full Skynet on us

BudgetBandit,

Dude I once put the Fighter into a vegetative state because of an intelligence level of -1. He tanked all the magic damage with his shield of weaving, but not the effects.
