Plap plap 𓁑𓂸

I upgraded to the OLED model when it came out. The screen looks much nicer, has a faster refresh and longer battery life. I definitely recommend it over the original, but it is a steep price when you already have one that works fine.

256gb of storage just so I can find the exact degenerate porn video I’m looking to watch again from 5-6 months ago?

There’s an road with an intersection exactly like this that I commute to work on everyday, with the only difference being that it has a 35 mph limit.

Upon reflection though, when I have been in the leftmost car’s position, I have never ever turned left onto the three lane road. Still though, this road is not usually busy and you can easily see over the road division.

I have seen people floor it just barely in front of me when they turn to the left though, but that’s just because they’re impatient, not because someone waved them on.

“Xbox…not a platform for fans of Japanese games”.

Are people really surprised by this?

What big Japanese games have ever been exclusively for Xbox?

Blue Dragon? Lost Odyssey? Both of which would have been more successful on Playstation, or at the very least whatever Nintendo console was relevant then.

Honestly, it just a bad time to be a fan of Japanese games in general.

No one in Japan has an Xbox and the vast majority of people outside of Japan with one didn’t buy it to play anything Japanese (nor have they ever).

Anything getting released on Playstation out of Japan is getting censored one way or another. Anything weird or crazy or violent or sexual is fine in Western developed games, but when it comes to Asian ones, then it’s too much. It’s almost as if Sony hates Asians.

Nintendo’s hardware is so old, you’ll be lucky to get more that 20 FPS on anything multiplatform, and no one wants to make anything exclusive for it because they have to compete against Nintendo.

And if it’s on PC, it’s either a terrible console port or isn’t made because no one in Japan games on PC.

I don’t think he was joking. Yoshi-P probably wants to play it just as much as anyone else.

If I recall correctly, they had a Live Letter (scheduled FFXIV livestream with him and a few others) right after Tears of the King came out and he had his Switch with him when they were still setting up.

I’m literally in the middle of performing an investigation into allegations of sexual harassment and inappropriate physical contact at my work. If half of my co-workers or employees were hitting or slapping or groping each other, they’d all be fired. I can’t imagine working at a place where anything like this would be tolerated.

No he won’t.

He made this exact same campaign promise back in 2016 and he didn’t pull the US out of NATO when he became president.

The only thing he did was to call out the majority of member countries that weren’t paying their agreed about share, causing (primarily) the US to make up the difference.

These incessant, full-screen upgrade ads, with no way of canceling other than a small “Remind me later” tucked away in the corner, where the final straw from me switching to Linux.

If you’re paying for it, then you could argue that you aren’t “stealing” it. How are you (or at least the average person) suppose to know that the steaming service you used got their content illegally? This way, all of the liability falls on the streamer rather than the consumer.

Scan a barcode next to the hole, insert bolt, wrench applies correct force for the piece.

The why not just have the barcode have all of that information encoded in it and not reference a database on a network?

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective

The story has so many great twists and turns even up to the very end. There was a distinct point about 75% of the way through when I came to the realization that I had to binge the rest of game. Even if it meant I got zero sleep that night, I had to see how it ended.

It was so good I wish I could experience it again blind.

Does this mean that he’s been secretly responsible for some/all school shootings, is addicted to doing them, and is asking for an intervention to help him stop and get into rehab?

“2 real friends”?

I’ve been at 0 real friends for so long that even the thought of socializing with anyone stresses me out.

I’m a hobbyist digital artist and have had to do a handful of graphic design projects for my mundane, non-art-in-anyway job.

As our computers are locked down Windows PCs, I’ve had to manage with MSPaint. It’s always taken me double the time as on any other program or app, and I have been wishing it had layers for years.

Since this update is Windows 11 only, I’ll have to for my company to upgrade, so I can look forward to layers in maybe 5 years.

I spent 99% of my time on Reddit through Sync. When they decided to restrict API use, which killed third-party apps, I decided I was done. If the Sync dev didn’t switch over to making a Lemmy app, I probably never would have heard about it. I’ve only gone to Reddit a handful of times since, and that’s only because I was searching for something and a Google search took me to a Reddit thread.

If you’re a digital artist or someone looking to get into digital art, an IPad Air with an Apple Pencil is the cheapest entry-point that doesn’t require a computer and doesn’t absolutely suck.

Clip Studio uses a monthly subscription model for IpadOS and Android. I’d rather pay a one time fee than pay forever.

You can write off a private jet, which is terrible for carbon emissions, but you can’t write off an electric car?

I realized the only game I play online is FFXIV, which doesn’t require PS+. I almost never play the “free” games they add to the service, and spend a non-zero amount of time browsing said free games in an effort to find something to play rather than something in my backlog. So I just canceled.

My membership is up in December and I doubt I’ll even notice when it’s gone.

You can customize them through the emulator (or Steam) to make the controls a bit more modern. I found a community layout for AC2 when I played in on my Steam Deck that made it feel much more like how AC6 plays.
