UsernameIsTooLon,

They’ve more or less addressed this issue. Their videos are like double checked now and you can kinda tell.

UsernameIsTooLon,

The game may have been 25 years in development, but their AAA standards must have also been from that time.

There would have been a period of time where Starfield’s release would be heralded as one of the greats (probably 2013-2017). But in 2023, it already looked outdated on release.

UsernameIsTooLon,

The graphics are relatively current gen, but I’m more excited about the unique looking NPCs and scale of the game.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Obviously it’s not exactly a 1:1 comparison, but think of the image having HDR metadata like an HDR YouTube video. Even though it’s compressed, it could still contain HDR attributes like 10-bit color or a certain screen brightness when viewing the specific images.

UsernameIsTooLon,

It literally is the government’s job. That’s the whole point of the FDA.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Yea were still in that transition period. One of the other problems is having RTX requirements only. Eventually the GTX cards will have to die out in order for this to be achieved though.

UsernameIsTooLon,

It’s the age old argument of “if there is no God, how do we teach what is right or wrong?”

Yes we can teach morals and ethics without a creator in place. As Penn from Penn and Teller would put it. “I don’t need the fear of eternal damnation to tell me that I shouldn’t murder. I shouldn’t murder because it’s wrong”.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Join and be more active in communities. Could be certain video games or hobbies but you can easily make some friends by just interacting with the communities of the things you already like.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Tbh it’s best that you don’t. It requires knowledge you’re better off living the rest of your life without knowing.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Sucks to suck. Imagine not getting into art school

UsernameIsTooLon,

I mean if it was intentional. I don’t think a single person out there is actively and purposely trying to code 911 not working.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Discord streaming is the way. Most of my friends don’t care about super high quality either so a little compression doesn’t hurt. Plus there are ways to bypass the 720p restrictions, too.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Social isolation tends to lead to hyperfixations. Whether that be airplanes or computers.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Google thinks otherwise :(

UsernameIsTooLon,

Oh, I just thought older websites were less secure. But I guess now that I think about it, you only got viruses if you clicked on the sketchy links yourself.

UsernameIsTooLon,

No need. As someone who understands web development enough to know I know nothing about web development, it makes sense to me why the internet is what it is today. It’s all about establishing a brand and identity now so doing extra things can make you stand out.

While YouTube has gotten more sluggish over the years, I do think some recent changes like ambient mode have been pretty cool. I also support reasonable hardware requirements because things get obsolete over time.

I guess I just miss the simplicity of early internet browsing more compared to all the bloat that exists today.

UsernameIsTooLon,

I literally have a vertical monitor to avoid the middle strip of text problem. It especially sucks for higher resolution monitors, it just feels like so much wasted space on the left and right side of the article.

UsernameIsTooLon,

If I’m doing documents, it’s basically columns so I can read it like papers. But then one day I just decided to turn a monitor into one big column. Turns out finding wallpapers for it is pretty easy too because mobile wallpapers work.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Wow that was a beautiful journey

UsernameIsTooLon,

I never claimed to have issues? I’m just saying the internet today is just filled with so much bloat and ad trackers. I do like some changes over time, but the era of just raw html and organized websites, and a lack of clickbait was nice.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Everyone sleeping on qBittorrent with the search plugin enabled. I never have to go to websites ever again, I can just pull from various domains with one search built into the program.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Elden Ring is approaching 2 years in a few months and I can’t believe it’s still going this strong.

UsernameIsTooLon,

I gotta say the switch commercial is probably the most clever at attracting the Apple folk. Tbh it really is as easy as plugging in a cable and hitting transfer. My mom recently went from Android to Apple and she pretty much has to start completely fresh; some apps even refuse to accept Android backups because Apple isn’t huge on file managers.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Many shows age with characters being overly exaggerated versions of themselves. This is called flanderization.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Eh, it’s still decent. I’m going on 2 years strong on my P6 and I’m still averaging 6.5-7ish hours of SoT a day. As a Pixel fan, my only honest complaint is their value doesn’t hold well in the long run. You can get older pixels at a heavily discounted price in the used market.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Competition is good. I’ve been an Apple hater for years but I’ll acknowledge their engineers are top notch (lol). Every company has its good and bad sides.

My personal dream phone would be a combination of a bunch of phones. Give me Apple hardware running PixelOS on a folding screen with a headphone jack.

UsernameIsTooLon,

It my personal dream phone. I wanna ditch my tablet one day but it’s still pretty functional as a media consumption device.

UsernameIsTooLon,

This is the way. It’s usually missing a touch of acidity.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Vivaldi mobile is goated for having a bottom bar + tabs.

Vivaldi desktop feels a bit clunky to me, I think edge beats it out in terms of performance and being more lightweight.

UsernameIsTooLon,

They’ve been doing 2 years and that’s a good time to be an exclusive, but also port a game over. I’d imagine porting is harder than people think and even 1 year may not be enough time to iron out all the bugs for nearly every hardware combination possible.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Exactly. The content wasn’t good enough.

UsernameIsTooLon,

I don’t mind the art style per se, it’s the animation style I’m sick of. We have crazy good technology and shit is still animated like some super advanced flash animation. There’s no more emotions and intentions behind the strokes of the brush like before. The line work is just consistent and bland.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Guitar hero really birthed a whole generation of new guitar players (me included)

Remove preinstalled apps - Universal Android Debloater (github.com)

I just discovered this amazing app! It lets you remove (or just disable) preinstalled apps like Facebook, Netflix, etc. and system apps like samsung knox apps, diagnostic, bixby, and even One UI (but you must have installed other launcher). You can’t brick your device, worst case it falls into a boot loop and after 5 reboots...

UsernameIsTooLon,

The end result is a locked ecosystem though. The open source nature of Android makes this a bit harder to regulate for Google.

Also money money money

UsernameIsTooLon,

Yea, hence money money money.

But I more meant that Apple kinda has too much control over their own iOS. Google even allows different flavors of Android to exist like OneUI, NothingOS, or even all the Chinese ones too.

UsernameIsTooLon,

What CPU do you have for your desktop? Baldur’s Gate is a bit more CPU intensive, but that’s still some crazy optimizations.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Remember that Google has their apps and system updates be different. The app itself will need to be updated through the playstore.

I do really like this move because sometimes new features come to older Pixels that aren’t even supported anymore.

UsernameIsTooLon,

I’m still waiting on putting my homescreen icons wherever I want and changing the grid size. Jailbroken iPhones are truly the best way to use those devices.

You look at android themes and every phone looks unique. Go on iOS setups and they’re almost all the same but arranged slightly differently.

‘Ranting, rambling, and paranoid’: Federal appeals court suspends 96-year-old judge until she passes mental exam (lawandcrime.com)

Judge Newman has threatened to have staff arrested, forcibly removed from the building, and fired. She accused staff of trickery, deceit, acting as her adversary, stealing her computer, stealing her files, and depriving her of secretarial support. Staff have described Judge Newman in their interactions with her as “aggressive,...

UsernameIsTooLon,

Why do these old people constantly feel the need to work? I’m trying to retire the moment I can and enjoy the rest of my life.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Nah I barely work hard. I’m not equating my life to work. There’s too many other things to enjoy for that.

UsernameIsTooLon,

Hey bro, not even trying to hate but I think you should get out more

UsernameIsTooLon,

Gimme open sourced brain chips and I’m in

UsernameIsTooLon,

Yea sometimes I get downvotes but I know I’m right.

Sometimes I have upvotes on a cringe comment and delete those lol.

UsernameIsTooLon,

This is how we create Mojo Jojo on accident

UsernameIsTooLon,

No one hates Pixels more than Pixel users

UsernameIsTooLon,

Do the semantics matter? It’s a public theater regardless.

You can’t demonize more if the situation is already bad. If you want a full sentence, then “fondled in a theater full of children and adults” which is equally as bad.

UsernameIsTooLon,

I would prank professors in class by turning on the projector lol
