More like Epic, Sony, and/or Microslop

Fuck off, bootlicker

policing only those in arm’s length

Dude, you’re on Lemmy. Do you not realize how many people on here are saying “fuck it, let’s drop Google and Microslop and stick with FLOSS”? How many people on here are trying to convince others to switch too?

These people are already doing what they can to steer the entire tech space in the right direction. But it’s hard to influence the giants directly. To do that, you need good FLOSS alternatives, which doesn’t work if those alternatives start riddling themselves with slop

I give it about 3 weeks until they put a different DRM in it

and see more of those people than more of people like you.

Doubt.

Most likely, they think they’ll see larger increase in sales from those people than lost sales on Steam

Does watching Twitch through GrayJay get around this?

I’ve wishlisted the game on Steam, because fuck Microslop

In fact, Valve reports that the Steam Machine is “six times as powerful” as the Steam Deck, and while this is mostly marketing speak (“power” is a vague and complex concept in gaming tech, and isn’t a linear spectrum), it’s not unfounded.

The Steam machine APU can perform 6x more operations per second than the Steam Deck APU.

This isn’t vague, nor complex. The reasons why the Steam Machine APU is more capable is complex, but the results are not.

Quit making mountains out of molehills

Behind the Bastards had a different take. A lot of fascist movements get wierdly focussed on futurism and try to portray their movements as belonging in said future. Unfortunately I can’t remember the exact episodes this was mentioned

Logitech makes decent, and sometimes great, hardware.

Until they discontinue loved products with no clear replacement

Just FYI, the series devolves into Mormon propaganda in the first trilogy. I wasn’t sure why the third book felt so off until I saw that Sanderson went to Brigham Young University. I also talked to an ex-Mormon friend of mine, and he apparently noped out halfway through the first book when he saw the signs

due to the lack of a fully secure environment in the OS

Allowing kernel-level access to programs is the exact opposite of a “fully secure environment”.

The “reasons” these publishers give to force kerbel-level anti-cheat onto players are complete fabrications to cover up the fact that they’re too cheap/lazy to implement server-side anti-cheat and also want to monitor your computer to sell your data

How long do matches take in this game? As in a range. Is it similar to League where it’s anywhere between 30min and 3 hours?

They can’t. The core gameplay of the MOBA genre inherently encourages toxicity

“Cheeto McPedo”

Brilliant, I’m definitely copying it

This. Unless you’re modding, PC gaming isn’t complicated. Every game nowadays automatically picks out options based on your hardware specs. While tuning options are there, they’re not required

I’m assuming they’re referring to the PC version

I’ve seen several threads on Lemmy of fanboys defending Nintendo. They just haven’t gotten to this thread yet

Wait, isn’t Story of Seasons the new name for the Harvest Moon franchise? What’s a Nintendo game doing on there?

It’s a tossup between him and Tim Sweeney
