It’s not that the icons are tiny, rather people driving usually operate by touch because their eyes need to be on the road.

That’s a very cromulent thing to say.

For earnest reasons? 8bitdo does firmware updates to improve stability and latency, and fix features broken when Xbox, or Nintendo update something on their consoles. All using a stand alone app that just phones home and downloads the latest firmware payload for ALL its controllers without any login.

EDIT: You don’t even need the app. 8bitdo’s website has all their firmwares available to download and install as and when you need. The app is so dyslexic fools like me don’t accidentally brick something with the wrong payload.

Microsoft however, may push some bullshit does nothing update simply to make you sign into their app.

I found this place on vacation.

Hugh Jass.

Not my idea tho. I saw that name on the credits of a video game. Never found out if it was a joke or truly the name of some unfortunate soul.

Arthur Dent!? THE Arthur Dent!?

I think you spelled Denuvo wrongly there…

Isn’t there a danger of someone shorting data to voltage by inserting this thing wrongly?

To each their own I guess. Must have reached puberty during the original Tomb Raider period.

YEAH!!!

Nah. I’ve been thinking the same all the while on reddit. Trust Lemmy to be a place where I learn things.

I’m not so sure about food, but for many mass market products it is indeed true that the same manufacturer can be engaged to make the same product under different branding. The difference then comes down to the corners cut to meet the client’s pricing. Crappier boxes, thinner bags, packing material, and quality inspection. Assuming the core ingredients are not compromised in some way.

Nothing sticks in my mind anymore. I tried to reinstall CP2077 and do a replay, but ultimately each time i exit it gets harder to start up and resume. I struggle to bother remembering which part of the story im am at. 20 years ago i would get “tetris effect” from pretty much any game I play; daydreaming about an RPG im playing, see tetris blocks falling into place, etc. Nowadays I don’t even get that with literal Tetris Effect.

It may be work life, stress etc. But part of myself just feels gaming is missing that old multiplayer feel where a whole bunch of us are in the Computer Science Lab, installing Doom 3 on the lab machines and playing til they kick us out at midnight. I’m also missing that feel of a whole bunch of us huddled in a McDonalds playing Mario Kart DS multiplayer, screaming so loud when someone triggers a lighting bolt, that the store manager essentially banned us from playing there ever again.

As for games like 2077, the sad realization is that the denouement leaves the me kinda confused more than anything. so many games I finish now leave me checking online to ask “What was that?”

I feel old now.

The American language is reductive to the point of being inaccurate or at worse, downright wrong. Born from this nature is the reason they use the phrase “deplane” whereas the rest of the world uses “disembark”.

For those wanting to play this as a game, there is this wonderfully fiendish website.
