Because here in America, when they take my money, it’s to give away to oil companies and weapons dealers. Not to give us all health care and affordable housing.

But I do have gas, so there’s that.

MusicBee, Stardock Fences, obligatory Adobe mention, all VR everything (unless something has changed recently, I haven’t looked in while).

Along with the other suggestions here, Garuda also already does this out-of-the-box.

Why do all of the comments make it seem like people think that someone asked chatgpt to write a George Carlin routine or whatever? A human person, not a computer, wrote some comedy in (what they felt) was in the style of George Carlin. The technology portion of this was the cloning of Carlin’s voice to “perform” the routine. And you can feel however you want about either part of that. I mean, seems like you’d have to be pretty far up your own ass to think you can just put your own words into the mouth of someone else, especially someone who is no longer in a position to call you a fucking idiot, or not. But the story that people are commenting on, sure seems to be quite different to the actual events that occurred.

As far as the actual story, they know what they did. They know full well that they could have actually did a Carlin impersonation if they had wanted. They could have written their material, went up on stage, said exactly want they were doing, performed their bit, dressed up for the part, hitting as many of the mannerisms as they could. A real, actual, proper attempt at an impersonation. They could have done that, and almost no one would have cared. A few people might have been upset about it, as there always are. But largely, no one would have batted an eye.

But they didn’t do that. They did this. They did this, knowing full well that the claim of it being an “impersonation” was bullshit. And knowing full well what the response would be. And it was exactly the response they wanted. All of the attention and outrage they are getting directed at them right now? That was the point.

I didn’t even realize they had a desktop app. I’ve been using the mobile app for a few years. I was just thinking about installing the mobile app in my WSA install, since it just didn’t even occur to me that there was a desktop version. I guess now it doesn’t matter either way.

Strange, I own a camera, and dogs still exist in the world. Soo…

I bought mine on Amazon. It’s an Addlink. You should find it by searching (ad2TBS91M2P). It’s currently $10 cheaper than when I bought mine. No idea if it’s a good deal anymore, I haven’t shopped for SSDs in a while, so I don’t know current prices to compare.

Bought the deck, upgraded to a 2tb SSD, upgraded the cooling, swapped the shell, added additional grips on the sticks, pads, triggers, rear buttons, did some overclocking and undervolting, spent many hours tweaking various setting and plugins, etc. I’ve played a couple of hours of Mario golf on yuzu, and haven’t otherwise touched it for a single other game. I’ve had it for 8 months. And the $2k gaming laptop that I ended up with a couple of months ago really kind of put the nail in the coffin. I had big plans for the Deck when I bought it(and the many accessories, upgrades, and mods), and those plans just kinda… didn’t become a thing.

I’ve been thinking about pulling the SSD and putting the 512gb back in, and just selling. The only thing stopping me is that I have some ideas on possible major life changes for this time next year(think tiny and/or mobile living arrangements), where the form factor of the Deck would/should be beneficial. That was the original intended purpose of me buying it to begin with. But even there, the laptop is plenty small, and vastly more powerful. Just not sure I see a reason to have both, and if forced to choose one or the other, I mean…

Mine went for $40. No box or booklet, just the cartridge. Sold FF2 last week for $60.

Just sold my copy of this game, literally earlier today. Was the last remaining SNES cartridge I owned.

What’s weird, is that I don’t have any filters at all, and I have nsfw content allowed in the settings. Yet, I’ve never seen any porn through the sync app. Like, not even once. But I keep seeing people talk about how much porn there is all over the place. I’m very confused.

Well, at least only one of my top 5 most-played games was a hentai game, this year.

Their goal is pretty standard affair.

1. Claim to be simply making yourself part of the group for the benefit of everyone. We’re all gonna be friends, this is good for you, you’ll see.
2. Use your position and resources to make yourself the defacto way to use the tech. Bonus points of you can make the average person see you and said tech as being one in the same.
3. Once you have gathered a high enough percentage of the users, simply make changes or take other actions that will cut yourself off from everywhere else, effectively cutting off those users from anywhere that is not you. Since most of them are already “your” users, barely any of them will even notice anything change, let alone care.
4. Repeat previous steps for any new competing service that covers along to threaten you.

Pretty sure length is important for penetration. Wait… what were we talking about?

I think the only games I paid full price for this year are BG3, and Jedi Survivor. And I bought a ton of games this year.

I switched from Google photos to immich just recently. I’m still looking for a good solution to replace Google’s editing features. I used, and miss, those features a LOT.

I’ve put about 100 into my first playthrough, even with the extreme amount of bugs that locked me out of so many areas, quests, characters, etc(which I get downvoted for every time I mention that such bugs exist). But then work got in the way and I haven’t played in probably a month. I would guess I’m half way through act 3, or more. I really need to finish the game. Now that there has been a major update or two since I last played, I’m hoping the bugs I experienced are finally fixed, so I can start a new playthrough and get to do all of the stuff that bugged out. Kinda want to start again with the same character I have now, since I feel like she kinda got cheated, with all of the bugs. Also really want to play the new Cyberpunk and Tales of Arise expansions before that, too. And those are also a question of whether I load up my existing characters, or start an entirely new playthrough for each.

No, that was step one. Operate at a loss until you suck up all of the users and kill off as much of the competition as you can. Now we’re at step two, where the time has come where they desperately need to actually make money, e.g. YouTube. You’re going to see more and more “free” sites/apps/services entering step two, if they haven’t already.

Desperately trying to cling to microscopic shreds of relevancy?
