The most frustrating thing is when you get that time you want but no access to the things you'd like to do with that time.

Honestly this is what pissed me off about the reaction to cyberpunk bugs. I remember how the fallout games were at launch. And I think even now trying to play new Vegas on Xbox (360 I think?) Has an issue if your save file gets too big where the save will corrupt.

CDPR definitely over promised. But every business does. They probably should've not released on last gen consoles at all, but that is tricky as fuck. I mean when they started to dev cp2077, I doubt Sony and MS even had dev units for next gen. Probably should've delayed last gen release only, made a transparent explanation and apology, and did what they ended up doing after release. But I had a low mid tier PC that played it at a solid 60 fps without major issue at launch. And it was exactly what I had hoped.

I'll probably also really like starfield, warts and all, when it drops. These are just my type of game.

I watched halo the way I watch most films made of books I've read. Going in treating it as its own thing. And I rather enjoyed it. The whole not showing his face wasn't even something in the full story. Just something they backed in to accidentally in the games. The books have him with his helmet off a lot early on even after getting mjolnir.

But it probably isn't top 5. That being said, I love sonic stuff and I'm not sure boom is either.

I agree. I'm also annoyed at gaming media giving sonic games shit. I understand there were many many bad games, but some of the most recent stuff is quite enjoyable. I love frontiers. Mania is great. Sonic forces was a bit goofy but fairly enjoyable. Murder of Sonic is fun and free. Sonic generations (especially the 3ds version) is cool too. And they made origins more worthwhile all while prepping for a big new classic sonic game with multiplayer that I'm pretty hyped for.

I mean the other end of the spectrum is something like Metroid. Almost all of the games are bangers (not you whatever that third person shooter one was called) but are released few and far between.

Sonic frontiers and persona 5 royal both have denuvo on PC I think and both are pretty big and great imo.

This is a naive world view. Working in a toxic environment is such a drain on you already. And then if you are in a field that is hard to break in to, you worry causing any issues will get you blackballed. And you often blame yourself and truly start to believe it is you who is doing bad. And getting a lawyer and suing is usually a fucking stressful nightmare. I have these huge boxes full of paperwork that I've filled out over the past few years and have to keep. I will randomly need some of them. And I'll randomly be notified to do even more shit. And it drags on for years. And my stuff is small fry compared to going up against massive company. Fucking paperwork gives me anxiety at this point.

Then you have to think about the rabid fan base that will be sending her death threats. Doxing her. Etc. All because they decided Linus is too cool he has all the computer shit.

mean lemmy is, like the early days of reddit and digg before it, full of tech enthusiasts.

Linus was one of if not the most successful tech YouTuber. He went from a YouTuber to a tech media empire. I don't know why you'd be surprised that a site that is basically full of his target audience is interested in it.

And honestly this is some awful stuff.

I mean I'm fucking sick of being reminded Trump is a real person, but I'm not surprised by all the coverage of his arrests.

And to add, he held such away with the tech enthusiast community that, if during the reddit fallout, he had come out and talked shit about lemmy under the guise of some list of reasons and pushed for kbin or even some other service entirely then we would likely see a drastic difference in the number of people that joined here.

I mean I trust oracle about as I trust my ex. But this something I suppose.

Terrible advice. Running an email server is hard. And you also have to get it white listed, because all major providers block random servers to cut down on spam.

Iirc the EU said it was expected to have feature parity between apple and non apple cables.

Also, if they did that, it would be a characteristic that makes iphones look worse than android. Just imagine being an iphone owner needing a charger and your friend hands you their fast charging android one only for it to be slow as piss for you right after they spent 10 minutes getting 40% charge.

My English teacher always warned us about the dangers of run on sentences.
