I love pointing out that in the US, a base ps5 is now what you risked paying a scalper when they were new, except now it’s not a scalper listing it on Walmart, it’s just straight up Walmart charging it.

My ps5 purchase helped a guy pay his rent after he made a dumb fucking decision in 2022, people buying now pads Walmart pockets.

Pretty sure it has the 2016 version of NMS on it. Booted up a ps4 install with it to try and couch co-op only to look around and ask why the UI was so different from what I was used to. It had internet access we thought but it can’t have or it would have installed whatever the latest patch is. It was surreal seeing pillars of Emeril again.

But you point yes, gaming single player offline is a joke now with DRM requiring single player online. We ripped EA Simcity for this. Simcity died to City:Skylines because it became such a movement.

Your Command strip accidentally breaks the paint and underneath is more layers of fucking paint - not drywall

Even if this wasn’t the design from the get-go - they’d been wanting to do this since XOne, capitalising on Sony shooting themselves with bad press now let’s them drop the disk drive and make themselves look like the good guys about it

As a treat

With Kolanaki not far behind!

Its easy enough to repost legacy memes. Antiques memes roadshow is like, a place to post reposts since, if it was new content, you’d be posting it in meirl or an appropriate community.

Damn thats crazy. I’ll just keep sipping on my DDR4 which isn’t stupidly overpriced and still able to play the games I buy.

Not really a pool person but would it be better to apply white or red (and look like a stripe on the flag) or would it be better to make it a lighter Cyan and, while combating the algae, the added light green makes the end result a blueish shade?

Had a nokia 3310, had a flip phone, did not like T9. The predictive nature was aweful and never got me to like it before I got a slide keyboard phone.

Clients are given only what the server says to tell it, it’s part of why I think the system has not been implemented elsewhere. As soon as you add this type of spotting system to anything with faster movement it would create issues. No client has all the information and every action is getting server-checked as the game plays out. It creates a bit of a funny with this because a tree will fall over, and you know a player did it, but the client is not told anything other than “put this tree in XYZ orientation now”

There are no mods to force it to show enemy positions or change the maps. No injection cheats. No wallhacks. No invincible god-mode, flight, or becoming unspottable or flying into/out of the map. No turning a single shot into a laser of damage, or unlimited magazine. No recoil cancel. No getting kicked from session like GTA or mod-menus.

World of Tanks has had this since 2011.

People hate the spotting system. We always have, but one issue Wargaming does NOT have an issue with is most forms of cheating. Most standard forms of “knowing” where the enemy is do not work - to the stage that as the game dies due to other reasons, the organized botting problem to get rewards has become more and more apparent. People run dozens of clients and then have to drive to specific places and then also be the player scoring the hits on their own “unspotted” account.

Something that often gets lost here is high quality gemstones are still rare by comparison. Not saying it excuses their stupid prices, but that we use diamonds to coat sawblades because it is so abundant, yet so much is shit quality.

Large enough to set in jewelry, with few enough imperfections to convince a buyer, and a skilled jeweler with years of practice cutting it, is still rare and worth something. Sure debeers did a “fuck you i control the supply” and we’re still falling for part of that scam, but it doesn’t mean gemstones are suddenly commonplace and worth $10.

Gonna catch a lot of “get with the times” but an ad blocker and watching YouTube in browser on my phone - I’ve never seen the value of needing Premium to do adblocking or a whole ass app like Vanced. Maybe sponsorblock for more but like overall, my impression has always been YouTube Premium is a joke of a service that can never offer anything more than adblocking/sponsor block already just does from a browser on my phone.

I have a list of things that go to Gmail and set up forwarding via proton, the issue I see is I have a bunch of services I have signed up for, but may not have opened in awhile, do I need to open all those apps and “re-activate” them from hibernation to change this or can I just let them go? How did you build a list of priority for what to sign-in to change and what to fall by the wayside?

The boulder could just be the check engine light and be equally funny

Generally I’ve heard* she shuts down a lot of dissent and criticisms of her work (even legitimate “I don’t like this” type passive comments) on r/comics because so much of the sub is her content and she gets disproportionate vote because of it (and like 3 other people like HowlingElk).

A fairly legitimate complaint I’ve seen is the aforementioned meta fact that half the sub is her content and not much more so they have to constantly see her stuff even if they otherwise don’t mind the messaging.

Yeah they are just so evil bad and aweful, too bad I don’t know their names so I could actively avoid them. If only some good Samaritan would help me find my way to avoiding those.

He sure tagging something
