  • Depending on where in the world you live and what’s going on with currencies right now, a PS5 disc in the shops can be a little bit cheaper than on the various digital platforms.

  • I wouldn’t be surprised if some places filter out applicants by using one of those (somewhat unreliable) AI-writing detectors, just as another way to cut down the pile of papers that an understaffed HR department has to read.

  • Those big multibillion-dollar centralised data centres aren't as reliable as a little shiny disc

  • Then it would still have Google services running on it, wouldn’t it? If so, that brings us back to the original problem.

  • What's a good Android phone that you can get with a Chinese non-Google version of Android but which also has a cellular radio that covers the bands used in North America?

  • US vs China

    Jump
  • No it hasn't

  • Yeah if you're really hardcore you use a trackball in one hand and a Wacom pen & tablet in the other, none of that fake controller or mouse and keyboard shit for casuals

  • Yeah, if you live in an ocean port city just take a look across the harbour on any day of the week and you’ll probably see at least one Evergreen ship.

  • The perfectly alienated and isolated liberal approach that changes nothing. Festooning a suburban house with solar panels is like washing your oversized pickup truck with those unbleached brown recycled paper towels.

    However, advocating for vasectomies and such gestures towards eugenics and eco-fascism.

  • You’re right, the Steamdeck can’t even run Fortnite! The Nintendo Switch is a much more capable gaming tablet than the Steamdeck is, and it has a better game library.

  • All the stuff Snowden leaked about the US government owning everyone’s shit has been suppressed in favour of pro-US propaganda about China maybe doing the same thing, without any real publicly provided evidence.

  • If you borrow a DVD from the library for free you don’t need to pay for whatever streaming service is holding that particular film hostage, if it’s even available at all. And if it’s a Blu-ray Disc it will have better picture quality than a compressed stream. Making copies is also very easy if you have a computer with a drive, and doesn’t require paying for a VPN to avoid facing the risks of online piracy.

  • It’s a perfectly nice game smothered under a terrifyingly exploitative business model. If you have trouble with addiction or gambling it’s best to skip it entirely, but if you can safely avoid those elements and like open world fantasy action RPGs then it’s worth a go.
