SweatyFireBalls,

I suppose the irony of trying to make it less lGbtq and instead making it lgbTq goes unnoticed by the bigoted creator?

SweatyFireBalls,

Mine does the same thing with Adam savages content. Literally half of my front page is his stuff and I’ve already watched most of it. For some reason yt is determined to suggest I rewatch all of his videos multiple times despite the fact that I follow quite a lot of varied creators.

When I go without watching him for a while it stops, but if I watch a single video it becomes rampant again.

I have the HP envy 360, I have the Ryzen 5000 series not Intel. I’m a software engineering student that also leans heavily into the enthusiast side in terms of any kind of software, and I haven’t ran into anything I can’t do with this. I don’t game on it though so I can’t speak to that, I use other hardware for it. The touchscreen works well, I picked up some styluses for it that have different tips based on what I’m doing and I’ve done anything from note taking to art. I also fold it for watching YouTube and stuff sometimes or reading. The battery life is pretty good, if I’m doing heavy stuff i usually have to plug it in before I hit the end of the day. Lightweight stuff I’ve had it last a couple days.

The laptop comes with windows 11 but I have a dual boot setup. It runs fantastic in Linux or windows, this thing is a little powerhouse. The only issue I had on install of linux (I’m using debian) was that it didn’t recognize my wifi adapter but it wasn’t a hard fix. Otherwise it just feels fantastic to use. Its light, sleek, and stylish in a modern way if those are bonuses for you. Feels good to type on, and has an aluminum case. Other than my steam deck it’s probably my favorite piece of tech I own.

SweatyFireBalls,

I legitimately do not understand, who wants this? Sure, maybe I’m biased and maybe lemmy is going to be an echo chamber and be like “yeah, stupid Google!”. However, for the life of me, I just don’t understand. Maybe I am really just getting old, I feel like every company now is just trying to stick “AI” into things every way they can. If I cared about the comments, I’d read the comments. if I did care about those comments, that means I would want to read THEM. Who does this serve? I watch a video because I want to watch a video, I don’t want a summary of the content I came to see. As a bonus to this rant, If I wanted shorts I’d watch them, hell you can’t even remove them anymore, not that I could before since they always came back. It’s like my doctor saying I shouldn’t have a surgery to remove my reproductive ability because I might want it later. No thanks, I don’t want kids and i don’t want shorts, let me remove it.

It’s getting harder and harder to do anything the way I want to do it on any platform. Things I value get taken away, like down votes, and i have to use other means to return them and yet stuff gets shoved in my face that I don’t want. The algorithms are terrible too, half the time my suggested to watch are just tons of videos I’ve already seen from the most recent creator i watched. I love adam savages content but its background that I usually put on, I don’t need every other suggested video being that, maybe pepper in some of the other creators. I follow hundreds of creators and those videos ive seen are all that can be suggested, really? Oh and by the way, have fun with trying to block ads 😊 Sure, what I’m doing now works, but for fucks sake I would watch an ad if it wasn’t so toxic to do so. I just want a service that actually seems to care about serving. Not trying to tell me what I should want.

Tldr: angry man shouts at the internet, contributes nothing or any real solutions.

What are some alternative to soulless videogame franchises?

What I mean is… sometimes people are very loyal to a videogame franchise or a company because they loved a game they released years ago (Silent Hill/Konami with Silent Hill 2, Blizzard/Bethesda with their respective golden eras, some could argue this happens too with Pokémon and Final Fantasy, etc). Ethical/consumer reasons...

SweatyFireBalls,

Larian (baldurs gate 3) is massive for being indie. I think where your misconception comes from is the term indie. The term comes with a lot of predetermined expectations and definitions, but in spite of this fact very large studios can be indie.

Of course it feels weird to label a studio as large as larian indie when compared to the likes of supergiant(hades) or two brothers of bay 12 who created dwarf fortress. None of the three are technically any less indie, but one certainly feels more indie, doesn’t it?
