Watching my girlfriend just accept every pop up was maddening. I’ve been teaching her about unsubscribing, 10 minute email, reject all, and firefox add-ons.

If you mean you have an unopened 4k Chromecast chances are you don’t have the exploitable firmware. I have one NIB right here and it’s dated 2024 mfg so chances of being unpatched are nearly 0.

I have an orange pi running android 12 hooked up to a TV and the lack of native apps for stuff like hulu [tablets not supported.] and I have the navigation bar stuck on the bottom even in full screen mode. I need to figure out a way to hide that. So it’s not quite so easy. If Lineage can come with the TV configuration working out of the box, then for 50 bucks WITH a remote… its an absolute STEAL.

Guardian Legends on NES was a favorite of mine. Super fucking hard.

I played the fuck out of Cannon Spike on Dreamcast

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannon_Spike

But I was a huge SmashTV fan back in teh day. I still play it when I see a cabinet.

I tried to get into the mindset to get good at Ikaruga but I just cannot invest that kinda time.

Dreamcast had so many good shmups.

Guardian Legends and 1942.

You would think that the shit-shoveling marketeers would figure out that showing an unskippable logo does brand damage.

Vegan leather is such crap and I say that as a vegan. I DO always put my phone into a full vegan leather wallet case, but I absolutely will go through a case or 3 before I chuck the phone.

Acers would start with a QWERTY and after a few months would be down to Q–R-T. If you were lucky one of your USB ports hasn’t detached from the motherboard.

I bet they are rebranded! :-D

Back in university at the turn of the millennia I was a front-line desktop support guy and the amount of Acer and Asus laptops that came in just completely falling apart was insane.

I love how the latest generation of gamers are finally finding out that Asus has always been, and always will be, a dogshit company.

I gave up years ago. It’s just better to wait.

If you don’t know, why are you commenting?

You have to be in charge to be a fascist you dumb motherfucker.

A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, a capitalist economy subject to stringent governmental controls, violent suppression of the opposition, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.

I fucking WISH we had ecofascism. Maybe then I’d get a winter again.

Yes, modern life is a huge fucking problem. Go vegan, buy a bike, shop local.

Belief that the world is on fire and its mostly because of big agra? ok.

They are both irrelevant. They don’t sell bespoke hardware, they don’t sell bespoke software, they just sell you locked down schlock. The era of consoles is over. With the ubiquitous nature of HDMI, 4K huge format TVs, and universal peripherals, there only thing consoles offer you is LESS choice.

Go vegan, buy a bike, play PC games.

Should have been his house.

Should have been his house.

Capitalism is nobody’s friend.

256 players is definitely more than you’ll ever need but I do miss the 1000v1000 mayhem of Planetside 2.

There’s way to much publisher drama in video games. Let the pig-nosed capitalists burn every developer into the ground. From the ashes we’ll have a plethora of indy games not beholden to this shitfest.

Microsoft doesn’t even make hardware to play games anymore. It’s just PCs with less freedom. They are both worthless and useless.

Let it burn.

That’s not happening now either.

The complete lack of Hollywood creativity? You’re trying to use science to prove art. Just look at the releases that came out those years.

Nah fam – go look at the movies that came out in 92 or 94. They were all absolute masterpieces we still about. There’s definitely a filter of time but there’s a reason for the precedent. We went from having a good bell-curve of quality to just 95% shit, 5% sufficient.

Yeah like if you bought CP2077 or NMS now and played past the 2h mark now you’re not getting that same refund.

What a shit article on a shit website.

Has anyone played it? I wonder if its any good… I always thought that N64 game was generally considered one of those awful 3d renditions of a 2d classic.

Sounds like they tried to patch some security vulnerabilities and it broke something so catastrophic that they would need do to a major re-write.

Does this also break the single player portion?

Did you subsequently push them down a flight of stairs?

Two flights of stairs?

Mate, Wolfenstein means something so far beyond a bunch of entirely forgettable reboots.

👏 Your👏 opinion👏 is👏 irrelevant.👏

And not even a very optimized one.

I can’t wait to catch up on all the games coming out now in a few years with my steam deck oled 2.0, considering how much fun I am having playing everything from the 2010s on my Deck right now.

I hope it runs on the Deck.

imagine paying pcgamer for an advertisement like this to shout about dynamic crosshairs and backpack reloading like its fucking 1998.

Do you have call screening turned on? I find that results in me getting much fewer spam calls than normal as the robots usually mark other machines as not-valid for scamming.

I love call screening and I’ll never turn it off.
