Aside from the main vampire doing an Irish jig, in what way did they

A) Indicate he was Irish

and

B) Pick on him for being Irish?

I’ve heard that some people who have ADHD can have a real hard time with “transitioning” from one frame of mind to another as is required for starting a new task of any kind. I imagine people who don’t have ADHD can also struggle with that sometimes

11 years? Since what? Prey 2017 came out… 8 years ago?

Also, in what way are the two games comparable aside from the title? Isn’t the first one a linear FPS while 2017 is an immersive sim?

If you’re still buying Call of Duty games, you’re asking for this.

There’s nothing to gain from buying the latest Call of Duty EXCEPT for the latest in in-game advertising tech

MOM! Phineas and Ferb are educating the greater Public about the universal benefits of a 4-day work week with no reduction in pay!

I’ve been relatively impressed that the image/emoji generation on my iPhone has all been done on my device. Every time I’ve used it, I’ve checked the “Apple Intelligence” server requests log and it’s always empty (until the one time I asked it to generate a photo memory).

My phone gets pretty hot instantly, then churns through 3% of the battery in a minute but it’s still running on a local system with the local battery.

Honestly, it’s clear SCOTUS cares as much about precedent as your average billionaire cares about the livability of the planet 100 years from now so hearing that they’re not going to listen to a case like this is refreshing

Developed in UE5, I’m assuming? That’d be an unfortunate probability. CP2077 was the best looking game and the most immersive game I’ve ever played

Rick’s obsession with McDonald’s’ Mulan-promotional szechuan sauce wasn’t really generation-defining, but it definitely was one of the bigger moments where internet nerds crawled out of their caves and into the social spotlight for a hot minute. Still can’t believe people got violently enraged over that

If you’re avoiding the first two Witcher games because they’re somehow not cinematic, you’re sorely mistaken.

Both of those games are incredibly atmospheric to the point of mastery. (tbf you have to be able to forgive the character models in the first game and that can be admittedly difficult because HOLY HELL ZOLTAN ARE YOU OKAY)

also wtf do you mean “masculine indulgences?”

Fuck thai boils my blood

In Colorado last year RCV was on the ballot as part of an initiative. It was shot down easily because both parties campaigned against it. Not sure what to do when the weight of all incumbents is thrown against something

For the longest time, I saw this art in Gamestop and assumed it was a game about mining and was confused as shit why it was rated M

I love running Elden Ring in the terminal. Hells yeah, foul tarnished

I see all of these “Why SteamOS and why not another distro?” comments and it kinda blows me away how much the idea of approachability designed by a trusted name seems like a foreign concept here.

Then again, we’re talking about Linux fanatics who probably also argue over whether emacs, vim, or vi are the best text editor lol

Approachability. Valve is a recognizable name and the Steam Deck is notoriously usable in the sea of Linux uncertainty.

Before you say “Linux is totally usable, just look at <examples>” the first question people are prompted with is “What distribution do you want to install?” and there is no singular place that says “this is what you want for this specific use case.”

Valve is not the first name in Linux gaming, but they are a known and trusted name. It’s not just about brand recognition but about trusting a name to guide you through something brand new and extremely daunting. For the vast majority of PC gamers, SteamOS offers a guided introduction to something that previously was stereotyped as complex and difficult to learn.

Is it the best distro? Probably not, but then again it’s extremely easy to migrate from SteamOS to something else when someone discovers they want something else. Until they understand enough about Linux to find that they want something else, SteamOS is currently one of the best ways to get them there

As someone who uses my desktop for gaming (and maybe web browsing) exclusively, and as someone mildly but not very familiar with OSes, I read this as “SteamOS is bad because of reason I personally don’t like that many people don’t understand, so do more research about Linux”

The barrier to Linux as an OS is not how good it is but how understandable it is. After Pewdiepie’s video went up I’m confident the search phrase “Linux OS download” skyrocketed in popularity because people don’t know let alone understand what a distribution is.

SteamOS is a great intro to Linux for the majority of PC gamers because it’s not only basically ready to use as soon as you boot it up, but also because it is being maintained by a team of people intent on making it the optimal PC gaming platform.

Once Windows users are introduced to a basic Linux experience why not let them take their time learning more about the variables in distros?

Maybe SteamOS is not the perfect distribution because <list your gripes here> but is there a perfect distribution?

What a bold-faced clearly obvious motherfucking lie.

Rockstar has released only 2 full games in the past 13 years because everything they’ve done since then has been funded by microtransactions. The price of entry is negligible to them when whales pay for multiple copies of the game every fuckin month.

Why do we tolerate it

The person who ceaselessly bashes their head against a brick wall hoping to knock it down will accomplish one thing, and it’s not knocking the wall down
