Hi, there!

💆

I was born in 1989, so I am an ancient grandpa and demand respect for my lawn. (/s ya right like I own a house)

(P.s. I am not a sexy hairy ripped daddy bear, but I do own a cat named Tammy 🐈‍⬛)

  • this developer is a big prick. i had an issue (that turned out to be user error after getting help from another source) with the android version of duckstation so went to their discord for support. instead of offering any aid or insight, i was immediately stereotyped as "an android user" and told "we don't offer tech support for android" basically for no other reason than "because android users bitch too much and then give you a bad review," which is just kind of insane imo? there's no downside to bad reviews like you're not going to get delisted? anyways, completely not surprised to hear this from that ass. it genuinely seems like this guy hates developing duckstation at all and i am confused why he bothers. give it up man, sounds like you'll be happier

  • i am poor myself and am fully aware of the assistance options available in my area. sitting on the corner with a sign is not a good solution to poverty. i will happily pay 10$ for a rose or cup of mango slices, but sitting around and guilt tripping money out of people that are just trying to get to work or focus on the road is not an ethical use of peoples time imo, no matter how poor you are.

  • Couples: Your Toothbrush

  • you must be, because i said it lasts 3 weeks which implies i know it's rechargeable. I'm not aware of any disposable electric toothbrush named sonicare with swappable tooth brush heads.

    i have the same toothbrush. that stupid annoying charging base + how fast it dies is a terrible downside for the product for me, and I can't imagine splitting the battery with another person and keeping it on those god awful chargers even more often

  • not at all? the comment thread started with saying magats will get the brunt of it. then someone said no, migrants would. so i said the migrants voted for Trump anyways. nowhere is there any implication anyone deserves it, unless that's just what you're looking to see

  • didn't the migrant population vote for trump too though

  • when i see you on the news then you can say you're doing something. until then, you're literally nothing but liberal meal team six annoying your friends and funding the gun lobby industry who checks notes is a big reason we're even in this position.

  • having fun fellating yourself on top of your high horse on the Internet? sorry, but it is not every persons responsibility to play morality police and risk their lives to defend other people. condemning people for not fighting is fucking asinine and not something ANY person is obligated to do and I'm tired of people acting like it is

  • we constantly ignore atrocities as a species. it is not new. it is not every persons responsibility to play morality police and risk their lives to defend other people. people were not evil just because they DIDN'T fight the nazis. fighting FOR the nazis? yes. but condemning people for not fighting is fucking asinine and not something ANY person is obligated to do and I'm tired of people acting like it is

  • i see this posted a lot. so why don't you go do it yourself? i know why: because you KNOW that taking up arms and attacking ICE will make Trump send his army at you to kill you, and all this will accomplish is make you a martyr they can use in propaganda OR ignite a full on civil war. i am tired of seeing this post. stop encouraging people to do things that YOU YOURSELF find unreasonable to do. and if you find it reasonable, than put up and shut up and stop fucking posting about it to look cool. we'll see you on the news.

  • Hypothesis: Modern retro-inspired indies are much more enjoyable than the retro games themselves

    Jump

  • i don't think so at all. i just played through Grandia for the first time in my life and really enjoyed it. i think your perspective is what makes the difference, but that's also up to you. i try to enjoy things through the lens they were created usually, it helps ground my experience more. the crumbled building is not a ruin, it's where real people lived their lives.

  • i live in a really great location for getting onto a bunch of different highways. because of this, ubers circle the area because they are closer to more things. it shows you the ubers in the area, and I will see like 8 or 9 going in circles, waiting. so i select the "wait and save" option on the app, because it's 3 dollars less and figure the wait won't be long because demand is low and there are plenty of drivers. nope. it literally just enabled a timer that didn't put my order through until it was over. it wasn't giving me a deal for being flexible with my pickup time, it was CHARGING ME 3$ just to have the privilege of them not withholding my service order arbitrarily.

    fuck uber man that made me so mad

  • i saw a great explanation how it was made in a documentary i can never track down again cuz the internet is terrible now. it's been a long time since I saw it, but the idea was they basically wrote letters on the page using some form of stencil to give the "illusion" of real, unknown words as opposed to strings of random letters. they recreated a little and it looked essentially the same. throw some illustrations of plants and stars in there, and bam you get to sell people a mystical mysterious book of knowledge

  • What is your opinion on ray/path tracing and real time upscaling (DLSS/FSR/XeSS) in video games?

    Jump

  • i turn off upscaling and enable dedicated fullscreen immediately, and then i get mad if the game cant run well without it. it literally NEVER looks better. the edges are ugly, frame rate stutters, things look patchy cross hatched, weirdness, i hate it.

    Clair Obscur (amazing) is the most recent offender. all the default settings it chose for my computer made it run like crap AND look ugly. disabled ai upscaling and enabled dedicated fullscreen, and the game looks beautiful and runs like butter on my aging 3070.

    i have no idea why the industry started making these the default settings but i wish they would stop.

    I don't consider ray tracing to be in the same category as these other technologies, though. ray tracing can look fantastic as long as it doesn't kill the frame rate.

    wall climbing with the swords was so awesome and i loved that the devs didn't patch it they just embraced it
