Have a read up on GrapheneOS, they seem like they take their shit very seriously and their product is pretty solid (though their communications are a bit… “opinionated”). And yes, it is an amusing irony that the most secure devices are made by Google.

Does that work? I always assumed games with DRM wouldn’t work if they couldn’t authenticate to your Steam account.

Simple explanation: if you have one console full of fond childhood memories then of course that’s the one you consider to be the best!

You can still play them on your GameCube or Wii though, or take copies of the discs and play them on anything that runs Dolphin

FYI if seems you can access older versions of Steam games, it’s just a bit hacky

OK, just making sure you’re aware that the reason everyone is talking about gatcha games is because they’re the ones that you brought up!

How many of the mobile games that you specifically mentioned aren’t gatcha games?

Fingers crossed!

Didn’t it already reach the threshold last year and the government (or the civil servant in charge of rejecting every petition) closed it saying that current consumer protection laws already apply?

It also launched a year or two before the ps3 and I feel like it was significantly cheaper. Xbox Live also seemed to be huge despite the cost, probably some network effect in action. I remember Gears of War being another big name they had.

In the uk I remember the 360 being huge and nobody having a ps3, but now I’m not sure I know a single person who bought an xb1 or whatever the current one is called.

That was probably one of their most sensible naming decisions

Taylor Swift has been the biggest selling artist but plenty of people will never have listened to her music, football is the most popular sport in the world but many will never have watched a match, etc. To sum up with a statement of the obvious: the world’s a big place so even very popular things can still be relatively niche!

Exactly, the cheapest device is the one you already have!

Is it that crazy? He’s just a game streamer, right? Plenty of people have probably never watched any streaming, let alone from one particular guy.

I meant bad luck that you bought a machine with loud fans generally!

FYI Lemmy already supports RSS, for instance I could add this feed to any RSS reader to follow you

Ah, bad luck

I guess they’re trying to make it more integrated and covering every source they can, but something about taking an open source project and turning it into a subscription service to play the games you already bought on the computer you already bought is… not to my taste

Is it the kind you can open up and clean the fans?
