You’re being pedantic, but I’m sure you understand the point.

Have you even looked at the computer electronics business? Or lived a few decades? Otherwise how can you have no experience of a company deciding your use of a product doesn’t meet THEIR expectations and so they invalidate your warranty claim? Heck, look at what Intel is doing right now with its 13 and 14 series chips.

Legality is nothing without enforcement, and there’s like none of that for warranties in the US, and even less for global companies with overseas HQs.

I saw a lot of negative comments in a YouTube thread. I only played the OG once, so perhaps it’s not sacred enough to me, but what I saw looked good.

P.s. when I completed my first playthrough, it was in 2021. My experience is that the original is not as good, now—compared to modern games and storytelling—than rose-colored glasses might suggest.

I had no trouble recognizing him.

Technical people can struggle when a choice isn’t a zero or a one.

I mean, I interpreted that as acknowledgement that Lemmy is still 1% the size of Reddit, for example.

I used 3d printing to make custom screw covers. Looks like that IKEA piece could use some, too!

Curious which orientation you used. Do the fans pull air on to the card, or push it off the card?

I tried several and most did not play well with the Steam Deck. Serum and the car survival game were the bigger disappointments, there; really wanted to try them.

I’m awake you can download proton hacks to make them work, but that’s not the point, imo .

I’m currently totally hooked on Tiny Rogues.

I’ve only used prusa slicer, which is what it looks like OP is using, and it results in printing perimeters first, then inside.

… I’m shocked. I thought all development on subsonic had dried up. I used it and dsub for literal years, but switched to Plex after it seemed I was paying for nothing. :(

Replied to the PM.

I also like LoseIt!, but somehow I also ended up paying for it, too. $20/yr. I don’t like the free version as much

Hmm. Data is only for 1/1/23 though 12/15/23. The last 15 days of the year aren’t significant enough to change the outcome? Somehow, I’d think otherwise. For example, I spent $120 at the start of the winter sale, but nothing in Oct-Nov.

So, is this still a scam if everyone gets refunded?

How nice, friend! I’d love to be considered for Hogwarts Legacy.

Happy or hopeful stories? Hard. I think the best I have is this: I took an unexpectedly long (6 mile) hike through the woods in autumn, and the stillness and quiet, the world seemed at peace. Because the hike was sufficiently long, I was able to find some of that quiet peace, too.

These are true criticisms, but I’m not sure if they’re fair. To the best of my recollection, Steam had none of those things in 2008, either, about the time they were the age of the EGS, now.

You could say they should (be able to) compete on the merits alone, without free games or paid exclusivity, but that argument wouldn’t reflect reality: you need a hefty carrot to lure people away from their comfort zone.

Bad take.

I’ll remind you that Steam needs SOME competition in order to actually get better, and I can’t think of anyone else able to do it (Microsoft has kinda already tried and failed). Remember when Steam suddenly addressed long-standing issues with the client and storefront a couple years ago? That was because the EGS appeared.

I’ll also remind young folks that the Internet was extremely negative regarding steam when it was new. Yes, I’ve been on Steam for 20+ years.

Tldr: EGS is fine. Relax.

Edit: clarity

If you’re on Lemmy, you’re already set up to “not understand”. You probably have no trouble installing a new chat app and using it.

I chat with 20-30 people in my neighborhood, all middle aged adults, and they all have iPhones. If I were to ask, only one would accommodate my request to use a different app, and it’d still be disruptive to his routine. I’m not angry at any of these folks; I blame Apple. Though they have a good product, they are totally behaving like a monopolist.

It’s not the features and never has been. It comes preinstalled, it just works, and it works perfectly with most people. No one calls it “iMessage”. They call it “texting”.
