48·6 days agoStop excusing the stupid. People are capable to learn to avoid it and disable it.

PC Gaming@lemmy.world•Epic Games Store Users Have Grown by 173% in Six Years, But Revenue Only by 1.6%
5·6 days agoI believe it is the free games, sir.
There is remotely nothing about that launcher that makes me go “yup, I’m happy to have this thing installed”. Tim Sweeny seems to love eating his own shit as his diet, because he seems to believe he’s superior than Valve.
Why does their launcher suck so much bandwidth and CPU usage to get a game downloaded? Jesus.

108·6 days agoHa, shows you right.
God, people, just get yourselves flash drives or an external drive. Cloud storage is dumb.
You could make either of those options last through your entire lifetime if you care for them properly. But I guess people enjoy the idea of going “huh?” whenever files mysteriously disappear from cloud storage.

3·7 days agoThey tried being a game store at one point, where you bought Steam games through them.

Technology@lemmy.world•Discord in discussions of going Public Trading, economics expert discusses how that might change things
10·7 days agoWell the developers, like all techbros, have been sweetening up Discord to what it is. Once they find a pretty buyer, they’ll sell it for top dollar. That’s the real completion cycle of enshittification. Some private firm will have it or someone like Microsoft may have it and do to it like they’ve done with Skype.

5·7 days agoIt’s been enshittifying for a while now.
Who the hell would pay $12 for some fancy profile template? Who’d pay $6 just for an animated thing that revolves around your profile picture? Half of that garbage obstructs your profile.
Not even subscribing to their $10 Nitro deal is worth it. Wow, you get to have a poor selection of ways to display your name. Maybe if a server you really love to be in was active and could take advantage of some of the things advertised, probably might be worth it. But a lot of the time, I’m in servers that don’t so I don’t see a point.

Games@lemmy.world•Switch 2 Sales Reportedly Struggled Over The Christmas Period
5·7 days agoI haven’t bought it because the games I would’ve wanted to play on the Switch - still would work fine on the Switch. I don’t feel the need or see the need to jump to Switch 2. I haven’t even gotten a Switch for myself yet but I want one someday for Super Mario RPG.
Nintendo is just, fucking backwards in how they do business these days.

Light. Bulbs. What could one fucking need wi-fi for, in lightbulbs? I know because I stock this shit.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•I just halted a job interview process - due to self respect.
32·8 days ago“If you put money in a vending machine and got two items instead of one, would you put additional money in for the second item?”
I’ve done this twice in a row. First off, it is not my problem how the person stocking the vending machine puts two pieces of product together to make it happen. I’m not in their shoes, it’s not my job, therefore not my problem. Anybody who pays twice is a fool in that situation.

Games@lemmy.world•Xbox 360 superfan amasses all 1,353 North American discs after two‑decade collection spree
26·9 days agoAnd will not have the time to play them all.
People underestimate the numbers of games released. They see 1,353 and may see that as a challenge. But every game you play is going to amass into hours and hours per game. Moreso once you get into the RPG ones.

Technology@lemmy.world•The Death of DeviantArt and the art-site shaped hole haunting the Internet -- Multi-hyphenate
71·10 days agoYup. They have an AI Art Generator called ‘Dream Up’ and it does exactly what you think it does.
So you can just make an account now, not caring about actually drawing or rendering anything, but you can just generate art. It’s crazy.

Technology@lemmy.world•The Death of DeviantArt and the art-site shaped hole haunting the Internet -- Multi-hyphenate
58·10 days agoThey’ve committed themselves to AI art, that’s how dead it is.
I remembered fond memories predating that period though. The chat room community was at once, very large. The chats still in fact exist, though, they’ve really tucked them away in a corner. Still have friends from there, still have seen so much talent come through there.
But you won’t ever tell anymore what AI is and what AI isn’t, because they’ve welcomed AI with open arms for a while. DeviantArt has truly backstabbed so many artists, without a care.
Oh and their logo is stupid as shit, looks more like an X than DA.

Technology@lemmy.world•Sony AI patent will see PlayStation games play themselves when players are stuck
2·10 days agoRight after about 10 minutes of a tutorial that insults you.
“What, you don’t know how to play games? Okay, I’ll show you how to play this game after trying to educate you how to play the game”
I remembered the Pokemon Stadium one.
These sites were so creative.
