I am unfortunately broke as a joke, but I can at least updoot and comment for more visibility =D

So, I’m an ardent ‘New Vegas is the best 3D Fallout game’ person.

But… Fallout 3 is not a bad game.

It is fun, it is enjoyable. It has solid game mechanics, it has a good number of well written characters and questlines, it is fun to just explore and find crazy shit.

It has flaws, yes.

But it is far from bad.

It just isn’t as good as New Vegas, which imo, basically just did everything FO3 did, but better, had a better overall storyline, refined and improved on all the gameplay mechanics, added in new gameplay features/elements.

Interpretation unclear.

Heuristic Pattern Match, Output 1:

Interpretation still unclear, however, loss has not been achieved, due to acquiring Klondike Bar.

If your body temp is any negative number of Kelvin, your existence is theoretical at best, potentially moving backwards through time, or instantly causing a chain reaction that would obliterate the fabric of reality, at worst.

Yep.

And then I realized the massive, absurd amount of effort and energy I was putting in, nearly 24/7… wasn’t worth it, because a great number of them were still finding ways to find a problem with everything I did or did not do…

Despite them never putting any such effort in the reverse direction, and despite me having achieved significantly more just in life in general than any of they had as well.

Ghosted 99% of them, never had lower baseline levels of stress in my life.

Fuck’em, they don’t deserve me.

Also, for what its worth, the OLED Decks literally sold out today, as in, Valve doesn’t currently have any more to sell in the US.

Also also… I realize this is a silly comparison, but the Switch 2 has not outsold all variants of the Deck, yet.

Its at about 3.5 million, Steam Deck is at about 4.5 million since 2022.

Also x3, the Switch 2 is apparently already sold out as well, as in no more units available at US retailers.

Verbose, overconfident autocorrect.

… he said, with a shit-eating grin…

I have also heard the catheter bag explanation, and that seems to make good sense to me.

AMD open sources their drivers too.

Ah, right, duh.

Ok so yeah, uh… the Z2 Extreme supposedly is going to have some kind of ‘AI’ functionality or additional component… god knows what that means…

Theoretically it could be more difficult for open source devs to fully leverage that, even if the drivers are open source…

But yeah, for the rest of it, it probably would not take much time at all given that Bazzite and SteamOS already run on the last generation of the same chips.

EDIT: On second thought: I wouldn’t put it past MSFT to go out of their way to invent an entirely new input controller interface for the buttons and thumbsticks and such, that would require open source devs to reverse engineer it a bit to properly interface with it.

Damn.

I’d never heard of any of that.

Thanks for letting me know!

I’m sorry, I don’t follow… what?

I am talking about the mass FPV drone attacks Ukraine just did inside Russia, by rigging up a bunch of semi-trucks as essentially road borne aircraft carriers.

Pretty much exactly.

There are so, so many tech bros who build their identity around not being replacable… when in fact, they are.

Then their identity collapses and they become crypto bros, some other kind of obvious start-up scammers…

I end up using the stick for movement, the pad for aiming.

And, due to a hand/wrist injury… switched the aiming to the left pad, and movement to the right stick, and then the right trigger is still fire, and the right track pad is a 4 way gated set of ‘buttons’.

In desktop, ive got the left pad moving the mouse, up click on the right pad is left click, down click on the right pad is right click… and then any kind of click on the left pad is screen zoom.

Yep, its weird, but I love it lol.

The only thing they could improve, at this point, imo… is a way to adjust the left right up down sizes of the zones for the edge scrolling to work on a pad.

It works perfectly when you point your finger at it at a perpendicular angle, but with a thumb, the surface area of the thumb makes contact over a different shape, so thats why theres so many reports of edge scrolling ‘not working’ for people with certain sized/shaped thumbs and grips.

Its much more real than you think.

… What do you think an FPV aerial drone control set up looks like?

…

Apparently, the way they’re doing it now is that many of the drones just have an unwinding spool of fiber optic cabling, instead of being wireless…

Because you can’t jam that, can’t hijack it.

So… kinda like a TOW missile.

Also… thats why it was called Operation Spider’s Web.
