  • Google's latest reason to give them $14/month: "Watch in faster playback speeds with Premium"

    Jump

  • When you think about it, it’s not really that different from learning to read faster, which is a valued skill.

    (There’s an argument to be made that for many things you’d be better off reading rather than watching YouTube vids at 4x but let’s not focus on that.)

  • Why does everyone put celery in soup stock?

    Jump

  • I’m with you - celery is horrid. Right up there with coriander for me as something that completely overpowers and ruins anything it’s used in.

  • i'm gonna have to stand up aren't i

  • Are you eating bagels in the shower?

  • Google's latest reason to give them $14/month: "Watch in faster playback speeds with Premium"

    Jump

  • When they say ‘faster playback speeds’ they don’t mean faster connection speeds, they mean watching videos at 1.5x normal speed (or faster).

  • Copywriters reveal how AI has decimated their industry

    Jump

  • Being repeatedly told subconsciously if not directly that your expertise is not valued or needed anymore - that really dehumanizes you as a person. And I’m still working through the pain of the two-year-long process that demolished my future in that profession.

    It’s one of those rare times in life when a man cries because he is just feeling so dehumanized and unappreciated despite pouring his life, heart and soul into something.

    Too easy sometimes to get caught up in technical debates, environmental issues, and snark, but it’s worth remembering that there’s also a real human impact to AI adoption.

  • Free 3-16 player party shooter of teamwork and betrayal, Klaus Veen's Treason added Linux support

  • Hadn’t heard of this but it looks fun!

  • Day 516 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

    Jump

  • ShaderGlass should allow you to run with a CRT shader without interfering with anticheat. (It doesn’t inject anything, just acts as a screen overlay.)

  • What thick BnW film for easy manual development ?

    Jump

  • I’ve always developed my own medium format Ilford HP5 with little to no issues.

    Honestly, getting film on those plastic spools can be tricky regardless of the film. There are a few tricks people suggest that might help (e.g. lubricating the ball bearings with pencil graphite, and using an old scrap of film as a lead-in to get you started) but loading them is something you just have to get better at over time.

  • Game Patents Need To Die

    Jump

  • I don’t think Netflix care about WB Games at all.

    'We actually didn't attribute any value' to Warner's game studios, Netflix boss says about the acquisition deal (Source)

  • 007 First Light - Official Lenny Kravitz Trailer | The Game Awards 2025

    Jump

  • Depends which version of Nightfire you played. The PC and console versions are very different.

  • Upwards mobility

    Jump

  • The fact they had to do this to earn a promotion is an institutional problem. Don’t hate the player, hate the game.

  • Do you buy real Christmas trees or put up artificial ones?

    Jump

  • Have always had artificial. My parents still use the same tree they used when I was a kid. When my wife and I bought our own place we invested in a good quality artificial and I expect it to last just as long.

    Real trees are a nice idea but I’ve seen far too many horror stories about them causing fires, and even if they don’t go up in flames they still drop needles and insects everywhere. Why take the risk?

  • Creative workers on the affects of AI on their jobs

    Jump

  • JP Allard says his company uses AI to create adverts with authenticity, heart and emotion

    hahahahahaha

  • Sort the Court – A Free King Simulator Where You Rule with Yes or No

    Jump

  • As per the HN comments:

    This link is for some shitty and obviously vibecoded website that stole an indie game from itch.io and monetized it through ads without giving any credit to the developer.

  • SteamOS tested on dedicated GPUs: No, it’s not always faster than Windows

    Jump

  • What we’ve found so far is basically the inverse of what we found when comparing handhelds: Windows usually has an edge on SteamOS’s performance, and sometimes that gap is quite large.

    Lemmy won’t like this

  • When the AI bubble bursts..

    Jump

  • If/when the bubble bursts we’ll have bigger problems than the price of RAM.

  • Rename football in America, Trump says, because soccer owns that title

    Jump

  • Most people who mock American football as ‘rugby for wusses’ (or similar) don’t even know how the game works, let alone what the legitimate differences are.

  • Bartle taxonomy of player types - A look at the types of players in games

    Jump

  • It might give you some comfort to know that that exact flaw has been noted many times before about the test. It’s even mentioned on the wiki page:

    the test has been met with some criticism for the dichotomous nature of its question-asking method

    Ultimately, the utility of Bartle’s research is not so people can self-test, but that it gives a useful set of target audiences to refer to when designing a game.
