The contractors on the Death Star knew what they signed up for.

Any contractor willing to work on that Death Star knew the risks. If they were killed, it was their own fault. A roofer listens to [their heart] not [their] wallet.

Yes, so Steam is better and more consumer friendly than them.

Long form is one thing, rambling and repeating things fifteen times when your point consists of one sentence is not long form.

Clearly, not.

Scam is still a scam. Maybe masochists are taking part in it but it’s still a scam.

The Deja Vu on B Street?

Valve makes PC hardware. Consoles are walled gardens. You want to use any controller? Stay on PC or buy a Magic Flash or Brooks.

My Thrustmaster Flight Stick doesn’t work with my Wii U, how dare Thrustmaster not support my choices.

Some membranes feel like mush, the buttons have WAY TOO MUCH travel, and the buttons wiggle as you try to mount them.

Then there are micro switches that immediately give my fingers cramps, click louder than a Cherry Blue switch, and you can never tell if you’ve actually pressed it or not.

For posterity, I prefer membranes as well.

Yeah, but buy a Switch 2 Pro Controller and try to use it on the PS5.

Vendor lock in is bad, don’t get me wrong but, without Steam, PS controllers have always been a pain to get going on PC. I would prefer they push native level OS controllers, even if it’s just a ‘lizard mode’ but I’m sure the track pads make it more complicated.

If, and only if, no one ever references the rest of the Bond canon jokingly. Everyone just plays it perfectly straight. No nods at the camera, nothing. Just like we all looked past the Bond actor changing in the past, everyone is just like “Yeah. That’s Bond.”

Hell, have her leave flowers at Tracy’s grave.

They learned how to get McDonald’s AI to do their work for them.

Jokes on them, all my PS4 games a FPKG. It’ll never go online.

That normally implies cordial relations between heads of departments. No one in the administration likes anyone else, they like themselves and sucking up to Trump to benefit themselves.

Kash would need to get Trump to get someone else to cooperate and you can’t go running to the boss to clean up your mess when you’re supposed to be cleaning up his!

The XPS 13 I bought like eight years ago will eventually turn to dust just… Watching YouTube videos on my desk.

The battery died five years back so I replaced it.

Dell emailed me to tell me that Windows 10 was out of support, I’ve had Linux on it for years now.

I also have an EeePC.

I will take Palantir’s money and do my best to be the worst I can be at the job they hired me for. I’ll have to donate a sizable portion of the money though…

See, that’s what I don’t get, it works fine. Plays games and browses the Internet. Why is that wrong?

Ubuntu on a desktop, mint on an older laptop, and Pop_OS on my daily driver laptop…

What am I doing wrong here?

I’ve got hundreds of hours in Forza Horizon - So I’ll say this, Forza Horizon is an open world exploration game with race events. It does have a big online focus, as the Weekly events structure usually has a few that are online only but you can still have a lot of fun just making the perfect drift car and sliding around the map.

Frank’s Little Beauties already made a song about that, though I’m willing to bet they could license it for a fee. I hear the guy who made the song invests in gun stores.
