Ive lost the kind of romanticism i had for gaming as a kid, so I dont really fall in love with games anymore. Im also generally self aware enough to stop playing before I start hating a game. I may get sick of a genre, leave it be and return in 5 years.

Reading the title of this post though, the first game that came to mind was gta. Last time I played gta V was on the 360 when I 100% the campaign and I didn’t really feel the same way as I did for IV. You might say I fell out of love with gta, as a franchise. This after having playednand loved all of them in the 15 years before V launched.

Cost me 200eur towards the end of 2023. Crazy, I’d sell it if I didn’t need it.

Fuck’n A.

Remedy already has lasting value in our hearts you out of touch dork!

I’ll scan my ass.

They probably will when the steam store turns to shit, valve stops supporting Linux and making hardware they want, stops doing family sharing, and pretty much removes everything from the steam client except the store.

You have to admit, valve has a pretty good reason to be liked by consumers.

I knew HTTP would make a return without its brother TLS someday!

I mean yeah, I get that… but why would I believe that? Its trivial to add a label in an app and make it say that. I’m questioning trust here. My question should have rather been: why do people trust Meta will do exactly what they say? Its Meta, that immediately sends alarms to my brain saying to stay cautious. Like I said, there’s no way to verify what that piece of text says and the people who would be interested in e2e encryption are also that kind of people who should know what a trusted authority is.

I never used WhatsApp, but what made people think they used e2e? I’m way passed blindly believing what any company says they do without proof. I’d expect some kind of key or certificate management in the app, is that present?

Heck… my default is still to think every website does plaintext password storage. I can’t prove it, but neither can they. Stop storing my passwords in plaintext lemmy! /s

This is the mindset I’ve adapted about the US in the last 10 years. This is the mindset I’ll pass on about the US until I see it change. Police reaching for the gun the second they get a response they don’t like is not good. This is not a society I’d wish to be a part of. Good luck Americans. And godspeed.

Good for him.

Afaik, EU mandates a minimum of 20 days, but yeah, there’s deviation between countries.

You there! Stop! You said the word ‘political’! That’s too political!

If I remember, I didn’t hear audio on the headphones after plugging them into the port on the front. I was trying to use it as a simple audio CD player.

Indeed. I tried to run one without an IDE plugged in (just MOLEX) and it didn’t work :/

She could just give the actual medal to him as tribute for her favorable future endeavors regarding the leadership of Venezuela. We all know where she stands though…

Indeed. Why even live if you’re gonna die anyway.

Heh, I loved most of the movies mentioned in the comments and I love old movies. I was expecting a lot more obscure cinema, not Godfather.
More controversially, I did find Lynch to be a boring film maker. I thought his more mainstream titles like The Straight Story (which I loved) or Elephant Man were the better of his work.
Also thought Yasujiro Ozu was pretty boring. I get his point, and I get how he plays with movement with smoke and wind and every scene is well thought out, but I couldn’t get behind the stories he was trying to tell.

Anytime I tried it, the cursor was too slow and ended up using the keyboard instead.
