I know all this stuff and even I don’t look at the technical stuff in the URL. I just make sure it doesn’t have dQw4w9WgXcQ in there.

It was only ever an issue for me back when it was new and next to nothing supported it yet.

That isn’t the case anymore, except maybe here on Lemmy where by default, animated images don’t properly upload. Doesn’t even matter the format; webp, gif, mp4, etc. They don’t work out of the box here; they embed fine if hosted elsewhere, tho.

No. I never once thought to vacuum my yard.

I bought Bioshock 1’s remaster yesterday cuz it was on sale. It wasn’t until after installing it that I realized it was the entire trilogy. 😃

Was it HL2 or TF2 that had the load bearing .jpeg of a banana that would cause crashing if removed? 🤔

IMO, it’s when you replace the motherboard. It’s the real heart of the machine; without it, all your other parts ain’t doing shit. And since you can get by longer on the same motherboard while still leaving everything else to be upgraded, getting a new motherboard very often necessitates getting at least a new CPU and possibly RAM if you’re making a generational leap that requires a new socket type.

Healthbar.

Steam has never helped in the role of publisher

The explosion of indie games because of how easily Steam allows a budding developer to publish their game says otherwise. The ease of self-publication through Steam was one of the first major benefits of the platform. Not to mention all the stuff Steamworks provides in modern times.

Well… I find it kinda funny (and I find it kinda sad) that the dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had.

Because our parents fucked.

Are these Meta glasses even AR? AFAIK they are just regular glasses/sunglasses with a camera, mic, and headphones in them so you can listen to music, record video, and use voice controls with your smartphone. There’s no display.

Good. That means it’s working.

There’s little I buy regularly that would have intrusive tech put in it. I hope they don’t start making SmartBread. Go to make a sandwich but I have to wait for a security update so my sourdough can’t be hacked (except it opens up 3 more security holes that weren’t present before the update and now a Russian hacker is using my bread to make a jellied meat sandwich remotely).

Arnold Schwarzenegger. When he was running for govenor, he had a rally nearby a doctors office I just happened to have an appointment at near the same time and I was able to get in line to shake hands and get the autograph. I’m not sure if I still have the autograph book he signed tho. My mom had it stored with a bunch of my old kid stuff growing up and I don’t think it was brought with us when we moved and I can’t ask her now since she’s no longer with us. Gotta go through all the stuff still packed up in the closets.

I also got Mitch Hedberg’s autograph. It’s just not the Mitch Hedberg you might have imagined upon reading that. But he is/was also a comedian. Saw him and a couple other small time comedians at a local club. His name was a large part of his set.

Mine never even had one.

She wasnt on her phone. It was on her seat, under her leg, face down, with her hands both on the steering wheel, and the camera simply spotted the top of the phone at an angle no human being could have possibly seen, nor would be able to claim she was operating it.

I have seen the Windows diagnostic tool accurately identify and fix an issue once.

And that was way the fuck back on Windows XP.

Soup of the Night sounds like it could be the name of a drink made from all the left over drinks at the end of a party.

Crimson Desert reminds of Dragon’s Dogma 2 in a lot of ways, except it’s way better. And it actually started off being built as an MMORPG, so it has a lot of the same feel of one.

As an MMO player at the time that game came out, I thought it was the strangest “MMO” ever. Were Japanese only MMOs like that? I was into UO, EQ, DAOC, and stuff and was kinda expecting a single player game that felt like one of those.
