  • All-in-one my ass, it doesn't even have a nub mouse

  • Nintendo Wins $2 Million Lawsuit Against 'MiG Switch' Distributor

    Jump

  • If there's a silver lining here it's that you can wait until there are enough interesting games to justify a purchase. If the switch 2's lifecycle is comparably long as the original Switch's, that backlog ain't going anywhere.

  • Because "AI" tools are unsustainable, and it would be better not to have destroyed your actual skill when the bubble eventually pops.

    Why isn't Mbin more popular?

    Jump

  • No idea why people see that as a problem. It works fine on mobile web.

  • There are SO MANY parents that are not willing to teach and monitor their kids online safety. I would even say most parents don't take that responsibility themselves.

  • Should I adopt one of these as a friend for my 2 year old cat?

    Jump

  • Your lease says you can have one cat - you already have one cat. Unless you're mentally and financially prepared to potentially find a new place to live in short order, I would recommend against violating your lease terms. Or at the very least ask your landlord first.

  • Games run faster on SteamOS than Windows 11, Ars testing finds

  • Methodology is important to a robust result. It's weird that you take issue with their considerations there.

  • Capcom says it considers Switch 2’s controversial Game Key Card titles as ‘digital sales’

    Jump

  • I haven't got very many gigantic third party titles, but nearly my entire Switch library (46 games) fits on the internal storage with 25 GB to spare.

  • The Switch 2: Is it worth buying?

    Jump

  • I think the hardware has a lot of promise, but it's fair to say that at this very instant there aren't many exclusives to justify it if you aren't excited about Mario Kart.

    If you have a backlog of Switch games, or you have favorites you're frequently playing on Switch, the improved processing power and loading times could be attractive, even if your games don't have resolution/framerate patches. For example, Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition loads battles in a snap, and doesn't have any framerate issues during gameplay anymore (although it is still capped at like 30 FPS in cutscenes, sadly.)

    There's a couple other neat things about it, but likely not too relevant to anyone who's on the fence about the console.

  • Oh this is awesome. I can see so many cool applications for this in wearable electronics and custom form factor batteries. I hope their research into improving the voltage pays off.

  • It is fair to say that my perspective was much the same as what you are saying. Thank you for the explanation, I will try to let go of some of those misconceptions.

  • This may just be my ignorance, but aren't nonbinary and transgender mutually exclusive?

    In any case, it appears like you are making efforts to better yourself, so I hope that you can move on and make the world around yourself better too. 👌

  • Discord is getting mobile ads

    Jump

  • They already offer a subscription service. And on top of that they have not-so-microtransactions in their shop.

  • A Reddit moderation tool is flagging ‘Luigi’ as potentially violent content

  • After the point in time where you made the connection, you will see activity start coming in from their connections. So you should gradually see their followers populate as those people make new posts, which get federated to your instance through your connection to them.

    Especially if the connection you made is the first time the remote instance has been interacted with, it's going to look barren at first because there is basically no capability to sync history. You can think of it like an RSS feed.

    (This is oversimplified - it's possible that ActivityPub might allow for historical items to be synced just like RSS publishers can choose to include older data. I would speculate that it's not commonly done for bandwidth reasons if it is possible.)

    A downside to this is that if you're trying to read through historical posts (from before you made the connection) you will have to click through to the hosting instance to get a complete view.

    An upside to this is that because you only see content posted after the connection is established, you are guaranteed to be seeing new posts from active users.
