Getting increasingly hard.

I finally learned why those 50" tvs are so cheap, like $200. Buy a dumb TV that’s the same size is easily 5x the price.

Then again, nobody needs a TV and I only bought one during the pandemic, then connected it to my pi hole.

Moar wuuurk?

My wife and I do this voice when we go through our list of chores.

Yep.

Tech companies have extreme “Fuck You” money. They have learned a lot from the past two decades of Antitrust acts.

That politician is either going to quickly change their mind with some bribes, or watch their entire life disappear with an army of lawyers or paid off peers shutting them down.

When it first came out, for some reason, I thought all games would start following Valve’s lead and introduce commentary.

And now two decades later, I don’t know if any other games have.

Then again, we have other ways like game devs talking on podcasts/live stream.

I thought it was just me! I played every HL game as a teen. Now 20 years later, my old eyes seem to struggle a bit.

And yeah, changing FoV is what solved it for me.

Fun fact: internet explorer was originally built off the File Explorer.

I kinda stopped following programming for windows a decade ago. But in sure there is some ancient code from 30 years ago that is holding some critical files together.

Need a Explanation?

(Gestures vaguely in the air)

Sony has a history of being terrible with security.

They literally built malware two decades ago.

Ubisoft did that too for a while, forcing Ubisoft logins. And they’re continuing to lose staff and shut down games.

Nice! It’s in the Humble Bundle and in my wishlist!

7/10 doesn’t mean it sucks. Just means adequate.

I played the Division 2, Ac Valhalla and FarCry 6 for 100+ hours. They helped me during the worse times of the pandemic.

But if I was talking to friends or making recommendations, we’d be taking about games that are better than that. The Elden Rings or the Ghost of Tsushima

I didn’t watch the video but who is this stuff for?

If I was a Microsoft fan, why click?

If I was a Linux fan, the thumbnail is all I need.

Ubisoft games have such a weird “design by committee” feel to it. Like they poll the internet every few weeks and make decisions off of that. New hot game has battle pass? WE HAVE BATTLE PASS.

They also seem to follow a checklist of mediocrity. Every game needs a dozen collectable items. Every game needs to have the same l types of quests that GTA3 had. Every game has to have a massive open world. Every game needs a online component and live service. Every game needs a incredible hook, which then they Marvel-safe it to avoid offending online babies.

Their games come off with 7/10 energy. Ubisoft games don’t move the needle. They’re pretty adequate as a game. But when I have thousands of games to choose from every year… Ill pass.

Polish isn’t going to help change the Ubisoft reputation of churning same looking games filled with massive bloaty copy-paste open worlds where you do generic fetch quests, collect hundreds of feathers, and watch watered down PG-13 storytelling that’s tamer than a Marvel movie.
