They develop software on Marshall Full-Stack amplifiers, rather than the smaller, less powerful Half-Stacks.

Hope that helps clear things up.

Nobody is going to SIM swap you unless you have a shitload of crypto and let everyone know about it. It’s not an easy attack, so it would have to be targeted. Pretty easy to not be a target (not having millions of dollars of crypto on a wallet helps).

Looks like what “the future” looked like in the 80s and early 90s. Like Total Recall or BttF Pt. 2

I haven’t used mine with PC (I usually just use an X-Box One controller, which was my fav prior to DualSense probably), but it’s a shame that more games don’t use the adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. It’s used relatively often and pretty well on PS5, and for me it’s a borderline killer feature. If more games utilized it in the way Astro’s Playroom did (yes I know it’s a tech demo but that’s kind of the point), it would be far and away my favorite for any system.

Haven’t had issues with battery life, but taht could be because I’ve updated firmware, or maybe the PS5 is just better at managing the DSs’ battery since they’re made for eachother. I also got the official brand charging dock, so perhaps that has something to do with prolonging battery life? Couldn’t tell you.

Lol what a loser. Trying so hard to sound badass.

Yeah if they like the PS4 controller, then they’ll 100% love the DualSense.

Just play Astro’s Playroom and you’ll get it.

DualSense is the best right now IMO due to the features. If you don’t believe me, actually play Astro’s Playroom.

But I love the Steam Deck’s layout (so I guess I’d probably like the Steam Controller as well). A lot of that has to do with Steam Input being fucking awesome, but it’s also possible to get relatively good at using the touchpads as mouse, and the “touch right stick to enable gyro” is an awesome feature that has made FPS games playable on console for me.

It will end up being like FreeVee on Prime for anyone who’s ever watched a movie or anything on there. They straight up randomly just inject ads in at random times, often not even during scene breaks. Characters are sometimes mid-sentence… Oh, and we’re back to the volume of the ads being 2x louder than the movie itself because I guess that law Congress passed way back in the day only applied to cable and broadcast TV.

It makes it nearly unwatchable. So get ready for that experience.

Oh great. Can’t wait for Sony or something to come in and completely ruin the IP with a movie or some shit.

I imagine the people who still run independent companies that fill vending machines (I’m not sure if this is still the model, or if capitalism ruined that as well) will gladly install the M&M branded machines, when the rental fees go down drastically.

At least that’s how I see this playing out: Machine is provided to small business for cheap (possibly free), majorly increasing their ever-thinning profit margins. I’m sure the cost of snacks increasing every month is a nightmare for people who stock vending machines, and their profit margins must be thinner than they’ve ever been.

They’ll install the new machines, and maybe even make marginally more total profits… of course the real money is in the data being collected by the machine.

Shit, I bet they could start having vending machines where they just give you shit for free, all you have to do is give a thumbprint, or strand of hair, or fingernail, or cornea scan, etc… And people would use them. Hey, free shit right?

So the letter was just for funsies? Seems like he was planning on retiring soon, and that date was moved up for reasons outlined in his letter.

“Retiring” and “resigning” are different things. He may have been near retirement age, but the statement he made makes it clear this was a resignation for a cause. With a good reason.

I think I’ve started learning that I’m kind of ok with that barrier to entry… I mean, it’s pretty fucking low. It’s not that difficult to understand if you are willing to take 5 mins to learn how it works.

Don’t want to be gatekeeper-y or anything, but maybe if you can’t pass that simple test, then the overall discourse is better off without you in it.

You should look into Steam Input (if you have a Steam Deck, you may have already messed with it), but it allows a mind-blowing amount of control customization for any game you’re launching through Steam. Most games will also have community presets you can easily use.

Inverting view or turning on gyro controls is trivial. It goes shockingly deep. You can create radial menus if you want, it’s wild.

Maybe not everywhere, because then it wouldn’t be nearly as special, but I absolutely adored the “asynchronous multiplayer” aspects of Death Stranding.

Viewing the “strand contracts” tab and looking at how many other actual humans used and “liked” the infrastructure you created, or helped to create. Creating contracts with players who seem to appreciate your work, so that you see more of their structures, and they see more of yours. Only a couple examples. Trying to find the most optimal place for a bridge, or watchtower so that other players will appreciate it and give you “likes.” That nice feeling of warmth you get when you finish building a road that others had started…

Just the whole freaking thing fits so well into the “we’re all in this together, even if we’re (forcibly) isolated” message the game is conveying. Working together with real people that you will never directly see or speak to, in order to make an incredibly arduous journey a bit easier for all. Amazing.

At least I think that was one of the messages, Kojima can be cryptic at times lol.

Again, I wouldn’t want it to become the next “climb the tower to reveal part of the map” mechanic, and get ruined. You can’t just shoe-horn it in, it has to make sense in context.

And yet at this moment it has +16 points.

There was a good month or so there where lemmy wasn’t inundated with far right nonsense… that was nice, wasn’t it? Sigh…

You could still play most (if not all) ps2 games without a memory card. You can’t save your game obviously, but nothing stopping you from playing.
