Technology@lemmy.world•MAGAs Are Fuming After Email Confirms They Will Never Get Their $500 Trump Phones or Deposits BackEnglish
1·14 days agoScam is still a scam. Maybe masochists are taking part in it but it’s still a scam.
The Deja Vu on B Street?

Games@lemmy.world•Steam Controller (2026) - PCGamer ReviewEnglish
1·25 days agoValve 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.

Games@lemmy.world•Steam Controller (2026) - PCGamer ReviewEnglish
2·26 days agoSome 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.

Games@lemmy.world•Steam Controller (2026) - PCGamer ReviewEnglish
1·26 days agoYeah, 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.
BigPotato@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Give me toxic womanizing female BondEnglish
93·26 days agoIf, 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.

News@lemmy.world•Atlantic writer sued by Kash Patel says she’s been ‘inundated’ with new sources
6·30 days agoThat 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!

Technology@lemmy.world•Framework Laptop 13 Pro and highlights from the Framework [Next Gen]English
1·1 month agoThe 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.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How far would you swallow your morals for money?
2·1 month agoI 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?

Games@lemmy.world•Racing fans, is Forza Horizon 6 for me?English
3·1 month agoI’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.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•this fat fuck getting McDonald's door dash at work
2·1 month agoFrank’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.

Technology@lemmy.world•Linux lays down the law on AI-generated code, says yes to Copilot, no to AI slop, and humans take the fall for mistakes — after months of fierce debate, Torvalds and maintainers come to an agreementEnglish
4·1 month agoWooting and Razer had a macro function that allowed Counterstrike players to setup a function to always get counter strafe. Valve decided that was a bridge too far and banned “Hardware level” exploits.
So, Valve once banned a keyboard.
So is Hell, Michigan.

United States | News & Politics@lemmy.ml•To no one's surprise, the US military views civilians as valid targets: "MQ-9 Reaper drones protected the crew member by striking Iranian military-aged males"
3·2 months agoCareful, US pilots might start purposely crashing - seeing as a furry designed the cooling system in their suits they might get all horned up.


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