I get the joke, but did the person writing this have a stroke halfway through writing it?

I’m trying to remember when I last had a real “free trial” and not these “give me your credit card subscription scams”. A bonafide “try our thing for real” situation made me buy it.

Free food or drinks for sure. Maybe a newspaper or magazine when I was a kid?

Gyro support on XInput has been on PC gamers wishlist for awhile.

XInput is a solid standard (especially if you look at the state of gaming in the pre 2000’s) but it is in need of an update…

I appreciate the hi-resolution photo. I did a double-take when the image loaded like a dial-up JPG from GeoCities.

I mean, that is a solid 5/7 desert they put together!

While Crystal Dynamics didn’t specify which content it’s referring to, it’s speculated that it could be the animalistic depiction of Pacific Island natives in Tomb Raider 3, who are implied to be cannibals.

Like the fictional Indiana Jones style villages? Or the real life North Sentinel Island Sentinelese? I’m scratching my head too…

That may have been the intention but I can’t find any which have panned out. Mozilla is straddling that weird line of operating both a non-profit and for-profit entity… and as a for-profit incubator for the next big thing, they have a pretty terrible track record.

Honestly I’m actually a little happy about this. I feel Mozilla needs to focus on its core job of advancing its browser and web standards so we don’t get stuck with Chromium-only world (like when us old timers had to deal with Internet Explorer holding the majority market share).

These side projects like running VPN services and social networks may have the best intentions but have had to pull from their limited resources. I would prefer they get spun off as separate projects instead of pulling resources from the parent company.

Please don’t use that guide. That’s the old 2.x line of SteamOS which hasn’t been updated since 2019 and is based on a very old version of Debian. The SteamOS that the deck uses is 3.x and has also moved from Debian to Arch. Valve really needs to update that page.

If you want to build your own SteamOS machine, take a look at something like HoloISO (https://github.com/HoloISO/holoiso) which is built on the current branch of SteamOS with the deck-exclusive OS/hardware items swapped out for standard kit.

I can’t wait to have TherionArms at my party!

Oh, thanks for the reminder that this just came out! Been looking forward to the sequel

Aside from the boring story I wasn’t impressed by the 48fps and optical abberations of water when compared to real life. I don’t believe we “figured that shit out” yet.

Nice. Describes all the feelings when you go touch grass 🐦

Too bad with Apple, all browsers are just Safari under the hood with a different skin. One of the biggest reasons I can’t switch to IOS.

Good example of a click bait title.

No!.. but please continue! 🤔

As a fiber tech, I’m going to borrow this description when I get asked what my job is to my non-tech friends & acquaintances.

And if I get asked what that means, I’ll simply wink and smile 😉

Hmm. I just checked and have no problems logging into amazon.co.jp from the US. I’m still presented with their international shipping options and currency conversion too… so I think you may have something going on with your browser.

Try the usual things like cleaning the cache or even a different browser.

Why not both?
