Warframe. trying to get my noob friend up to current content so we can experience 1999 together.

The amount of effort for such imperceptible improvements is insane.

Also insane is how shit modern games run without multi thousand dollar hardware, even if you turn down settings, but then it also looks like ass in addition to running like shit.

is there an easy way to do this that doesn’t require me to understand how github works?

If steam goes down I’m sailing the high seas from then on.

our fanatical obsession with convenience (and corporations exploiting that) is what created this mess.

Autopay is so expected now that many subscriptions simply don’t offer options to pay per month.

as a warframe player, it boggles my mind that bungie can’t figure this out.

reddit sucks but lemmy barely exists. I run out of things to scroll here really fast.

not a problem for people with nothing left to lose.

I’ve got the same complaint here. Firefox has a setting, but it’s kinda crap and is only in Firefox. I haven’t been able to find a solution that works system wide and isn’t horrible jank. I’m on mint with cinnamon, btw.

it upsets me how accurate that description is.

it would be funny though. They shouldn’t do it, but it would be funny if they did.

it’s almost like these 2 companies have wildly different practices regarding how they treat their customers and business partners.

a user friendly user interface is one that the user is already familiar with. It is subjective, determined by the user, and will vary from user to user.

Think about the placement of face buttons for an xbox controller vs a ninttendo switch controller, specifically A and B. The function of menu accept is always on a, and menu back is always on b, but the physical placement of those buttons are opposite on the competing platform. Now think about a playstation controller, and where it puts menu accept and menu back. The glyphs are different, but a nintendo player will find it intuitive while the xbox player will be confused.

if nintendo actually did it, I’d expect them to fuck it up in the most nonsensical and uniquely nintendo way possible.

consistent middle click to scroll in all programs.

If I buy something, decide I don’t want it anymore, I can refund it within 2 hours of playtime or 24 hours of purchase (I might have the exact numbers wrong, but whatever). I’ve only ever used this a couple of times, but this is a reasonable expectation if you think of a video game as a product that you purchase much like any other product. I’ve never had problems with refunds, ever.

One time I bought a game on nintendo switch, and discovered that I couldn’t play it because it required joycons and I didn’t have any of those. I attempted to refund the game, but nintendo won’t let you refund a game if you’ve downloaded it.

I still buy games on steam. My switch though, I gave that away.

fuck yeah. does chaos mod still work? I miss a good grappling hook.

I made the jump to Linux a few months ago, and while there are certain conveniences that I miss, everything I actually need works fine. As for gaming, I don’t play anything with kernel level anticheat, so it doesn’t matter to me that those don’t work on linux.

And notice how all the screeching about genocide has gone silent? Proves that they never actually cared.

holy shit does that look like a lot of money for not a lot of machine.
