  • Switch 2 Teardown: Still Glued, Still Soldered, Still Drifting

    Jump

  • Yeah, I think we should wait and see how prevalent the drifting is this time around before freaking out. Of course it's going to happen to some people because every stick that uses this technology has some incidence of drifting, but that doesn't mean it's going to be as bad as last time. I have lots of these kinds of sticks on lots of gamepads over the years and only the joycons have ever drifted.

  • The Switch 2 Pro Controller: Prepare For Glue And Fragile Parts

    Jump

  • Yeah, these PC handhelds are great for us enthusiast geeks but they will never have the same allure as a Nintendo handheld with Mario, Pokemon, Zelda, Kart, and Smash to mainstream users. Nintendo’s exclusive games do have a huge pull. Switch 2 will eclipse the Steam Deck sales in mere weeks which I’m sure comes as little surprise to Valve.

    Will be interesting to see how the new Xbox backed device sells since it should have more marketing muscle and the Xbox name behind it and actually be sold in common retail stores.

  • Amazon Doubles Prime Video Ads Per Hour

    Jump

  • And it’s never been better with Stremio plus a Debrid service. App has a much more user friendly interface than that Prime trash.

  • Nintendo’s Switch 2 launch push hasn’t gone well. Does it matter?

    Jump

  • I’m betting that it will be a success and keep Nintendo’s shareholders pleased but that it won’t reach the heights of its predecessor with the higher prices and the fact that the hybrid concept doesn’t exactly have the same wow factor it did 8 years ago.

    I can’t really blame Nintendo on playing it safe on the system concept this time though. Coming off of their biggest hardware success of all time, they’d have to have a pretty amazing innovation to risk trying something completely new. It’s just not that easy to always have a big idea like that. I see the Switch 2 like the Super Nintendo was to the NES… and that could work just fine so long as they deliver on the games.

  • If AI was going to advance exponentially I'd have expected it to take off by now.

    Jump

  • Agreed. LLM Ai has gotten insanely good insanely fast, and an LLM of course isn’t going to magically turn into an AGI. That’s a whole different ball game.

  • DOOM: The Dark Ages Has Reportedly Sold Less Than 1 Million Copies

    Jump

  • Good news then because Dark Ages is extremely different than Eternal and a lot of people who didn’t like that game but loved 2016 are happy with it. I’m not saying rush out and spend $70 on it, but give it a go when it’s on sale down the line and you might end up really pleased with it.

    Eternal was too hard for me. Love Dark Ages.

  • Valve CEO Gabe Newell’s Neuralink competitor is expecting its first brain chip this year

    Jump

  • I’m only doing the brain chip thing if it can fully transplant me to a Matrix level of simulated reality and get me out of this current hellhole permanently.

  • Kansas mom sues porn sites because her son visited Chaturbate 30 times

    Jump

  • No. The models on those sites don’t know the age of the people they’re talking to. It’s just another anonymous user watching or grey username saying stupid shit to them in the main chat. The vast majority of performers will not speak to users privately unless they pay. I don’t give a shit if a 14 year old girl is watching porn. That’s her business.

  • Are we hardwired to fall for autocrats?

    Jump

  • "We?" Hell no. Some of y'all maybe.

  • New cancer vaccine to treat 15 types of disease now available on NHS

    Jump

  • What if the life saving cancer treatment gives the patient autism?!

  • Mark Zuckerberg Thinks You Don't Have Enough Friends and His Chatbots Are the Answer

    Jump

  • I’m not interested in being friends with or fucking artificial intelligence. I use it to help me solve problems and that’s going to remain the extent of my relationship with it.

  • Grand Theft Auto VI is Now Coming May 26, 2026

    Jump

  • Confusing since they have an entire team in Canada that specializes in ports and it’s never been easier considering the Sony and MS consoles are both x86 now.

  • RFK Jr. says he’s working to stop food stamps buying soda and candy

    Jump

  • I’m okay with these particular restrictions and my tax dollars not contributing to the obesity and diabetes epidemic. I don’t think that affects my status as a progressive any either.

    Gonna have to agree to disagree on this one, and that’s okay. One thing I really like about Lemmy is how we’re able to have this disagreement without childish downvotes and insults. Refreshing.

  • RFK Jr. says he’s working to stop food stamps buying soda and candy

    Jump

  • Food assistance programs aren't about helping people find joy in harmful behaviors. Again, there's a reason why we don't let people buy alcohol with this assistance and candy and soda is just as nutritionally empty.

  • RFK Jr. says he’s working to stop food stamps buying soda and candy

    Jump

  • I honestly don't see how this is much different than Michelle Obama trying to get junk food out of schools. Nobody here seems to want to cut benefits from people in need but some of us don't see an issue with some restrictions. Candy and soda is poison. We have never let people buy alcohol with food stamps either.

  • Canada election: Liberals will form next government, CBC News projects

    Jump

  • Congrats, Canada! Don't ever let this brain disease that has destroyed our country overtake you.

  • Removed Locked

    Cocaine "no worse than whiskey," would be "sold like wine" if legalized worldwide, Colombia's president says

    Jump

  • Hell yeah. Legalize it and my job will become a lot easier.

  • Getting mixed signals from Reddit. Furthermore I shall henceforth be on Lemmy full time.

    Jump

  • Dang, I called one an autistic dork and only got 3 days. Nothing against autistic people. I'm something of an autistic myself. I just knew it would trigger him. Then I mocked him in the unban request too for being a "thin-skinned bitch."

    I've also said "I fully endorse Luigi and his slaughter of CEOs."

    Why is it so hard for me to get my permaban?

  • Luigi Mangione to be arraigned in Manhattan after Trump's AG vows to seek death penalty

    Jump

  • Jury Nullification, baby. Yeah, he did it. And it should happen more often.

  • REPO dev says "there are no plans to make the game free-to-play" because "we don't want to add microtransactions or have cosmetics that you buy"

    Jump

  • $10 is a steal for this game. A couple friends and I went in blind and were having a riot a few hours in. “Lethal Company but fun.”
