Lmao.

"When you’re done with your exam you can just leave you know?”

“Shut up dude, cannot jinx my Gwent streak!”



Well yeah, that will be the potential first sign to look out for. If that happens no need to think it won’t get worse like everything else.





I am amazed companies like 8bitdo still don’t have any controllers with touchpads. Happy to see this!


Oh, I see. I don’t play anything like that, so I was oblivious to the issue. Thanks!


Strange headline. Isn’t it always at an all-time high since once you get something to run, that’s it?


I feel sad that the Captain is used to stand for the morally wrong side in this joke. Especially from this scene, I faintly recall it was about not doing enough to save or help some people.



Looks fun, but scrolling through the Steam Reviews just on the first page I noticed two different accounts that received the game for free, writing the same review (aside from the last sentence)

I thought this was a chill RV sim, but somewhere between my 47th cigarette and the 9th flat tire, I realized I was actually living my dad’s midlife crisis.

Make of that what you will.



That would be easy on a linux phone setup where you have no need to sign in.


So, if you had a linux phone, you could still run all android apps as is? Given you have an .apk I suppose?


12 Playable Characters at launch, with many more released via Season Model

Ugh. No thanks then.


Same, I only played it last year. Amazing game overall. Sad to hear this, hope some of these will reform in a new team.


Bazzite is another one. Super easy install, you could dual boot it but you need a bit of tech affinity to follow those instructions. Just installing it by itself and deleting windows is easy as though.


Me too, don’t have prime currently so I am always looking out at the free games and giveaway communities if someone is sharing.


Free games from epic games store is NOT hoarding. You don’t really own them. The minute epic decides they are done with that store, you are out of luck and all your games.

Getting free games via Amazon Prime from GOG however would be actual digital hoarding, since you can download and save the installer of every game there.




For full features you need a subscription. For a phone launcher. Hard no.


What big changes? You wanted to lock content behind DLC to maximize profit and that was the criticism you faced. All you needed to do is not to charge for it, crisis averted for now. Then again, I am not sure I’d consider buying a game that started out like that.


Probably excusable when neither one of the devs speak the language. They probably trusted whoever did the translation and that’s that. Seems like an easy fix though.

I am just curious how bad it could be that you would write a negative review about it. I’ve seen some pretty bad translations in my language, but it never made the game unplayable. I guess difficult to convey when you are not a Chinese speaker, the article examples don’t mean much to me.



Fucking shrinkflation coming to electronics? Damn.


I got Sable via the epic games promotion some time ago. Definitely a nice gem. Had a few annoying bugs though where the game does not notice if you accidentally did something already before you knew about, sorry if that sounds weird. I was just super confused at the beginning since I went into the first space ship before even going to the village and then all dialogues made no sense to me as I had no idea I was supposed to go there later.



For playing with my kid I got:

  • Untitled Goose Game
  • Pizza Possum
  • Stardew Valley
  • Shift Happens

These are all couch co-op for us.


This is now the millionth time that there are news that PayPal can and will do this and that there is almost 0 legal action you can take.

Why oh why on Earth do you still keep money stored there? I understand using it for transactions, sometimes it is the only way but there is no need to keep the money on it, or is there?

At this point, sorry, your own fault for trusting PayPal.


I recognise only Octodad, what else is notable from that collection?




Must be nice living somewhere where cinema prices did not climb. I can assure you its been different where I live.

You got to look at it relatively, a movie never cost even close to $60, so why would it end up there. It cost something like less than $10 but now the average is around $16. Games were maybe $60 and now could be $80, so it is actually a very comparable increase.

Edit: to be fully clear, I don’t think there should be a comparable increase between those two things. Buying a video game and going to watch a movie are two very different things to do. Just pointing out that movie tickets did in fact get more expensive. There’s also the “creative accounting” often being done in the film industry, I don’t think that’s a thing in the gaming industry. So many differences.



I am waiting for that for the very same reason. Hope it gets implemented, have not really read anywhere if it is planned or not though.


I would also assume most people interested in SteamDecks don’t care too much about its performance. As long as it plays older titles well enough or newer games that are not cutting edge in game engines it is fine.


So, first of all:

One key issue is “seat spinning,” where bots initiate the booking process but do not complete payment - by hoarding inventory temporarily, they reduce availability and may create a false perception of scarcity, which can influence pricing algorithms.

Pretty sure any “reputable” flight company is already doing that. I am not sure any consumer can really get clear evidence though. They don’t need bots for this, they just tell their booking portal to lie.

Moving on:

In some cases, bots resell the tickets they secure through “ticket scalping,” pushing genuine customers toward inflated prices or unavailable flights.

Reselling means people book flights via what, eBay? Is there a market for reselling flight tickets? Depending on the country involved, destination and so on these bookings require you to leave a name or even passport details.

I’ve stopped reading after this paragraph. Is this just an AI written article of made up issues?


Fuck yes, Descent 2 was even better, with your small helper robot and even more cool weapons/rockets.


They do. They do not care. It’s part of the problem.
