What would that accomplish though?

You know what, I believe that. 👌 Wouldn’t at all be surprised.

What’s the alternative? They have to obey the law, right? What should they have done? How is this “bowing to Kremlin” as if they’re kneeling, waiting to suck their dick or something.

Genuinely curious about these questions.

I’m wooshing. Is that some kind of test where you live?

I’m just saying in certain games setting your custom resolution could be considered cheating.

For example in competitive first person shooters, if you play on a 16:9 monitor, and you set the resolution to be a ratio much, much wider than your monitor, you will see all the way around the player in 360°. This is how graphics projection math works. Or it did when I last dabbled in writing a graphics engine.

So I can understand some games not allowing certain odd ratios and FOVs in combination.

Otherwise I agree, of course we should be able to set a resolution that matches our monitors that we have. 😊👍

The 9070 had two names? You’re talking about the regular, the XT, and GRE?

Well good thing the 9070 series is the series that is trying to adopt a more Nvidia-like naming scheme.

I dunno… Depends on the game. If you make a window wide enough you’d start seeing what’s behind you, and that might not be very fair in certain games lol. It might not be very easy to aim but that can be learned. 😅

Thank you for the detailed response 🥰 Lovely bit of trivia

Next time in the title 😉

Exactly. OP posting to the very general “games” community with freaking abbreviations and shit.

Here’s a message to OP:

WTFDYTPKWTFYAMYDMF?!

I’m watching a playthrough of HL: Alyx right now and I’m about two hours in, and it’s really disappointing that there’s no crowbar. Or similar. What a staple to miss in such a game.

Gosh, stop trying so hard to make me not want play your game, I can only take so much!

Stop assuming everyone is US please.

I didn’t, and usually don’t, so that’s all good and fine. 👍

Healthcare around the world is stingy.

I will highly doubt any place would do this. Nobody making these decisions knows enough about computer performance, I bet you. Government decision makers don’t, for sure. 😆

You think healthcare businesses (I forget healthcare is a business in America, sorry) would be caught using Steam Machines as work stations? They would risk ridicule. Wouldn’t be taken seriously.

Maybe a startup would do it. If they did development of smaller shit like apps or simple web dev. But yeah no, no business would do this because businesses need support deals.

I should play this. I bought it, after all.

I read every word. 😉

But yeah, it just goes to show that the mass production vs caring and dedicated production really are playing in different leagues altogether. Mass produced stuff is just shit no matter how expensive, and this controller-centric company blows the big dogs out of the water for a third, quarter, eighth of the price!

Anyway, I hope you get more free time for yourself soon, so you can enjoy it more. 😌

I’m super pleased with it, rock solid performance. Very snappy input lag as well, not even detectable, and I play games that require very precise timing on inputs.

Wish I could disagree with you on the durability of the premium controllers from Xbox. So bad. I got the Elite 2 like I said, but I exchanged it for a new one literally an amount of times that I can’t even remember, and it took place over almost a year. The issue was with its sticks. They were either drifting or had some kind of gap where the stick wouldn’t sit still in its socket. Both left and right sticks, or one or the other.

Eventually I had enough and settled on one that had very little of the issue, on the left stick (less used), because I just wanted to freaking play my games because I was without a controller all the time sending them back.

8Bit? Third of the price, first controller sent to me was flawless.

I’m not experiencing an issue with charging though. In what way do you notice that it doesn’t charge fully? The charge light never switches off?

The 8bitDo Ultimate 2 was like $40–50 or something, so cheap compared to the Elite 2. I got the dirt cheap 8Bit just to try it out for giggles because I’d never tried TMR sticks before. Bro I haven’t touched the Elite 2 since unpacking the 8bit.

Oh SNAP

I’d say it’s priceless.

The 8bitDo Ultimate 2 has TMR sticks too, best controller I’ve used. Better than the Xbox Elite Controller Series 2. I do wish the 8bitDo had 4 underside buttons instead of only 2, but it’s still better. The sticks are insane.

Exactly, bringing in all the feces and dirt and gravel and everything else from outside in the streets. So nasty. Like okay, if you live your life in your shoes and you take them off only to shower and sleep, even that is… workable, if that suits you. I don’t understand it, but fine. But laying your shoes on your bed? 🤮

Tangentially related: who tf gets up in their bed WITH THEIR SHOES ON bruh that’s so freaking disgusting

To no-one’s surprise 😢

Can confirm they suck. Hate touch pads.

Shapez 2 was great. I got into last night. Lovely and relaxing. No stress, no resource management, no time limits, no enemies. Just cozy thinking about production and how to optimize. Right up my alley.

Even if it were a fair comparison, 32% is still cherry picked. It’s the best result, versus the average result of +6–7% (sorry, that was the fps increase) +13–14%. 🤷‍♂️

I’m still proud of Linux for being this competitive. ❤️🐧

I’m impressed by this table. Really cool.

That would be pretty dope! That’s even something someone can start a small business selling without needing a license, I guess! Take orders for hardware and then assemble and install a gaming environment based on Linux. Stoinks go brr!

The complicated bit isn’t the OS, it’s installing it. A console comes preloaded with an OS. That’s what sets us apart from non-techy people.

Awesome take, all of it. 100% agree. I don’t own a PlayStation console, never have, but you make perfect sense.

As such, the thing that turned me off initially about the G-Rebels demo is that I can see all the way to the horizon. I’m not sure how I feel about it being so bright, either - rather than a sun-starved Jovian moon, the new game is set on Earth, albeit a dystopian Earth where most people live in floating megacities.

How picky can you get. Not even an explanation as to why these things would be negative aspects. Just stated as such.

Thanks for the relevant quote 👍

So so far only news of expansion. 👍

Break free, implying they won’t support Pixels anymore (is how I interpreted it at first anyway), but they are simply expanding support for more devices. 👍

Love your username bro, very clever 👏😊

Better get in there now and add it back to your current account then, this is dirt cheap.

I’ll keep on trucking on it whenever I get a chance then 😊
