Hey, y’all! Just another random, loudmouthed, opinionated, Southern-fried nerdy American living abroad.

I’m moving off kbin to lemmy, so I won’t be posting from here (unless kbin social gets it together).

stopthatgirl7 OP , to gaming in Baldur’s Gate 3 just made the future of Xbox Series S a bit more uncertain

RAM feels like it’s the one thing they really shouldn’t have skimped out on, because that’s the one that’s going to affect longevity the most.

I watched a YouTube video where the guy played Cyberpunk on a PS4 from disc with no patches installed. It was as bad as you think.

Thing is, it could’ve been ok if they’d put more RAM in it. It’s got less RAM than the One, which is what’s going to hurt it long term.

Japan. Nintendo got it passed into law years ago that game’s can’t be rented, because of supposed piracy concerns. But you can go to any video rental place and borrow all the music CDs you could want, because we all know how much more difficult it is to make mp3s from a CD than copy a game.

You all hate discs until you have a library that you can rent games for free close to you.

It’s actually illegal where I live to rent out games. Thanks, Nintendo! (/^^)/⌒●~*

So they’ll most likely decide to completely remove features from the Xbox releases rather than try to get them to work on S, which will lead to worse gaming options on the Xbox. Which Sony will absolutely love.

Thing is, it didn’t ultimately have to release on series S. Larian could very well have decided it was too much work to get it to work, and Microsoft didn’t want Xbox left out of such a big release. I think as the generation goes on, you’re going to see a lot more devs and studios deciding or not worth all the extra cost to try to get a have running on S for an Xbox release, or games will get nerfed from the early development stage, unless Microsoft lighten up on their parity requirements.

Alas, we do everything on Google because we’re using Classroom, Drive, and their office suite. Since I’m already having to the use Google for everything, I just use Chrome for everything work-related.

stopthatgirl7 OP , to news in Reddit users are reporting Christian websites for violating Virginia's new porn identification law, citing vulgar passages in the Bible
@stopthatgirl7@kbin.social avatar

I fricking hate how we’re expected to gently explain in soothing voices and educate and be understanding of people who damn well want us dead and who wouldn’t even extend someone on the left the courtesy of even pissing on them if they were on fire. We’re supposed to extend them every grace and courtesy while they’re not expected to do the same to us.

stopthatgirl7 OP , to worldnews in Conservationist group African Parks to free 2,000 rhinos from South Africa farm
@stopthatgirl7@kbin.social avatar

From the article:

The organisation says it plans to release the rhinos into secure, well-managed areas to protect them from poaching and it will work with funding partners, governments and other conservation groups to ensure this happens.

@stopthatgirl7@kbin.social avatar

Disputes over “India” versus “Bharat” have gained ground since opposition parties in July announced a new alliance — called INDIA — to unseat Modi and defeat his party ahead of national elections in 2024. The acronym stands for Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance. Since then, some officials in Modi’s party have demanded that the country be called Bharat instead of India.

Ahh. Ok.

This isn’t federal, though. This is state.
