Okalaydokalay , to games in GPD Win Mini Review: Defying the Laws of Physics

I wish those little PCs would make a comeback.

But smartphones have changed that, largely.

There is a desire to go back to dumb flip phones, though, and I wonder if that could help bring small form factor PCs back.

Okalaydokalay , to gaming in Sony Confirms PS5 Slim for This Holiday Season

It’s not just the lack of availability but that was a part of it. Microsoft and Sony’s lack of proper response is part of the reason.

I remained “patient” to some extent as I only just got to build my PC this year. The GPU “shortage” was a part of it too.

But I felt that Sony and Microsoft could have done more for customers. Sony had a program to get actual PS users a PS5 but that too was still sold out. Scalpers had no issue buying pallets of consoles but actual fans couldn’t. It was insane.

But besides that, I’ve since realized that, at least for myself, a PC is the better way to go. Consoles are a waste of money for me in the long run as a PC will be used for more than just gaming and the longevity of the parts and upgradeability is incomparable. I likely wouldn’t have felt this way had I just been able to get a PS5/Xbox Series X like I wanted.

But Microsoft and Sony don’t seem to care about their actual fans and them getting consoles in their homes, which is what soured it for me. Though, yeah, same could be said about Nvidia and AMD as well to an extent too, but there are more manufacturers under them that make the actual cards and you had some like EVGA that had programs that tried to get a GPU in actual customers’ hands and not the greedy scalpers.

I’m in the same boat. I used that money and saved a bit more and just built my first gaming PC.

I still want to play Ghost of Tsushima but I will not buy a PS5 just for that game. Don’t think I’m going to buy any more consoles in the future, sadly. The last release soured me on these releases too.

Okalaydokalay , to asklemmy in What games do you think should NEVER be remastered, because they're close to perfect as they are?

Was just reminded on here a few days about Jet Set Radio Future.

The graphics aren’t realistic so it still feels good despite being released 20 years ago. The music and overall gameplay is also fantastic and original.

It somewhat got a “remaster” as a spiritual successor this past summer as Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. With added “vehicles” and HD which makes it a bit more crisp in detail.

Okalaydokalay , to games in John Riccitiello is stepping down as CEO and president of Unity

True, at the end of the day, he did irreversible damage to Unity’s image with this move.

In his defense, he likely wasn’t alone in making this decision or approving of it, so there’s that.

Okalaydokalay , to games in Microsoft expected to finally buy Activision Blizzard next week

Did they really encourage it? Genuinely curious as I never heard that before, but that’s wild if true.

Okalaydokalay , to pcgaming in Cyberpunk patch 2.01 now available

Addressed an issue that could cause V to become invulnerable to all damage.

I don’t know if I’d call that an “issue”

Okalaydokalay , to asklemmy in What UI design trend do you hate the most?

I’m surprised advertisers don’t have much of a problem with it. Because it just makes me fucking despise whatever website I was tricked into going to.

It would be like a sandwich shop hiring a guy to wear a sandwich costume and pass out flyers on their corner. Only, instead of just doing that, he forces you into the sandwich shop. Guaranteed I would be pissed and hate that place for life.

Okalaydokalay , to mildlyinfuriating in Really wish people wouldn't mess others around over sales sites

I loved messing with these people.

“Oh that 3 year old car for $2,200? I’d love to buy it! What’s that? You have to ship it from Michigan? What a coincidence! My brother lives in Michigan! He can go pick it up and save us both the time and costs of shipping :) What’s that? It’s locked up in a storage lot? Oh that’s no trouble at all. I’ll have my brother go down there and pressure them to let it go :)”

Just one excuse after another until they’d eventually stop replying. About the only way I could get some fun out of the frustration when just trying to browse for a decent car.

Okalaydokalay , to mildlyinteresting in I made a website that tells you, based on the year you graduated high school, what your school (probably) got wrong!

I always thought the holding your head back for a nosebleed was weird. I’d have that awful taste/internal smell of blood in my throat and the occasional gulp of blood clump 🤮

Plus it never seemed to stop it any better than when I’d just hold a tissue to my nose.

Okalaydokalay , to programmerhumor in Wait, What Is Happening Here?

My boss has a morning meeting where we tell him what we’re working on for the day. And every Monday, this meeting is at 8:00 when my shift starts. I’m thankful my name makes me further down the list because I would be stumbling to get that.

He’s a cool guy and not overly micromanager or anything, so it’s not a huge thing, but just reminded me seeing this meme.

Okalaydokalay , to asklemmy in What's an industry that would cause riots if it disappeared overnight?

I would love to see this just to see the absolute chaos it would cause. I cannot visualize it.

Okalaydokalay , to mildlyinfuriating in YouTube does this "suggested video" thing now

I really miss the days when the music was relevant. If you watched a Papa Roach music video, there were other Papa Roach videos being suggested. Now, it doesn’t even suggest music in the same genre. It just recommends music I’ve already seen like Tupac or really out there genres like a pop music video I’ve never watched. Not relevant to my taste or the video itself, but nice try, YouTube…?

Okalaydokalay , to asklemmy in Who is an everyday someone who is very interesting who you know?

I wish I would have asked! We’re in the United States but she didn’t have a noticeable accent.

Crazy how people at that age still want to work!

Okalaydokalay , to asklemmy in Who is an everyday someone who is very interesting who you know?

I agree. I have a drink here and there on the weekends sometimes, but the normalization of getting hammered, blackout drunk is unhealthy. I’ve always thought it was “funny”, for lack of a better term, when online dating and seeing people who have a problem with people who do drugs, even marijuana or smoking cigarettes but their own profile is filled of pics of them with booze and their profile is jokes about getting drunk and alcohol being their personality.

A little examination on this would benefit society.
