  • "He doesn't care about money, political influence, or bathing. Just games."

    Does he care about games? I used to watch him years ago, but then he turned into a misogynistic drama farmer and rage baiter who occasionally plays games.

  • Hopefully, we will not need a Ripley soon.

  • I'm so sad he didnt die when he was shot. He is 60 years old. He could stay in politics for another +-20 years, just look at trump and biden.

  • I guess I can see that, but I never said that it is cleaner. It's the same for me. It's not dirtier. It's not cleaner. It's only faster. Eating the banana sideways might look weird to other people, but there is literally no advantage for me to eat it normally.

    When someone tells you that they finished a book in a really short time, the first thing you think is probably that the book is really good and they had to like it. You probably don't think, "oh, that's not really reading. You technically just skimmed through it, you don't know what you even read."

    Some people read faster. Some people listen faster. It shouldn't be that surprising.

  • I don't know what to tell you. It looks like to me that you seem to think that somehow I am wasting my enjoyment of the media. Or that my consumption of the media isn't the right one or fulfilling or something like that.

    As I said before, I can understand everything. Why should I listen to or watch something in normal speed? It's just a waste of time in my case.

    When somebody can hit a target that is 300 meters away, why would you tell them to shoot at the target that is only 100 meters away? What's the point in that for them?

    I don't know if that is a good analogy, but I don't know how else to explain this.

  • When I am cooking, cleaning, etc, I listen to audiobooks. Not at those same speeds as YouTube videos. Between 1.25x and 1.8x, depends on a narrator again.

  • I thought that was obvious. Time.

    You would not believe how much time I have saved over the years by doing this. When I can finish 30m video in less than 10 minutes.

    I don't know about you, but when I come home from work, I don't have a whole evening to just watch yt videos.

    This way I can finish the videos I wanted to watch a lot sooner and then I can go and do something else.

  • Gradualism

    At first I watched every YouTube video on 1.5x for like 6 months.

    Then I watched everything on 1.8X for another 6 months. Then 2.2x and so on.

    Now I watch everything between 2.8x and 3.6x, Depends on the talking speed of the person in the video. I can understand everything.

    Of course I watch some videos in normal 1x speed but those are usually just like artistic videos or movie trailers and stuff like that. If there is just a person talking to the camera, there is no reason for me to watch it in normal speed.

  • Still can't set the video speed above 2.25x? Otherwise it's useless to me.

  • Kadokawa owns 60% of FromSoftware

    Sony will own 10% of Kadakawa.

    It could be a lot worse. Hopefully, this means there will be no PSN shenanigans.

  • Exactly this. When my brother has a problem with Windows, I just tell him this.

    He doesn't let me install linux on his PC, but when I told him that Valve is coming with their own Linux distro, he said that he will try that one when it comes out.

    *Of course I try to fix his windows problem when I can.

  • Hmm, I don't really remember that. But I read those books a LONG time ago. It is time for reread I guess.

    I mostly just remember

    How Geralt and Ciri met, some dude that could turn into golden dragon, Ciri on frozen lake, Regis, some bad mage with similar name as Voldemort

    Username checks out btw.

  • There were some leaks or rumors that the main protagonist of the new Witcher game will be somebody new from the new School of the Lynx.

    I was excited to play as somebody completely new and somebody who isn't in Geralt's circle.

    Ciri is a great character though and I'm looking forward to the game either way.

  • I remember some people on Twitter being mad when at the end of the game, the game told them that they were fascists. It's funny to me because unless you were playing a total piece of shit, you always came out as a communist in this game.

  • I wish I knew about this app sooner. I would pick something based off that. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

  • There is.

  • I just checked. Yes, spez is investor of nothing. Another reason to avoid this company.

  • I didn't think of that. The app seems to work fine without internet access. Thanks for the advice.

  • KZ ZSN looks cool, but I am mostly listening to audiobooks while on the job, and the cable with Bluetooth adapter will get in my way a lot. But I will keep them in mind for some other use.
