  • All these morons put so much money in AI and now they have to shoehorn it everywhere to justify the investment, watching this year’s CES was appalling with them presenting AI junk for “consumers” and when i hear some say “the bubble should burst, but it shouldn’t burst too hard because it could have repercussions throughout the industry and wider” and i’m here like bitch i want it to implode so hard that all these companies that went with AI to go bankrupt and it takes years for everything to recover because for me having a subscription for entertainment is not an option. By owning our hardware is how WE are in control, as soon as you get that hardware through a subscription that’s when they have taken control away from us and that terrifies me and it should you all as well, just remember how it was with Netflix, HBO and all the other subscription services, how they started cheap and then started ramping up the prices year after year and now they will do the same with gaming but now they won’t be able to just take away your games (example The Crew), now they can take away your hardware as well, so for me saying NO to AI is the most obvious choice because there is no benefit for me whatsoever.


  • Oh… that’s one of the reasons i still haven’t switched to Linux, but being on Windows for decades now has made me too lazy to get into trying to understand it properly and i’m currently on Windows 10 with disabled updates and i do have Linux on a few devices and it looks so much better now and so dumbed down so even i can understand it, i’m just too lazy at the moment till stuff starts breaking on Windows then i’ll have to get into it but Linux is picking up momentum and getting better and in 1-2 years it’ll be easier to understand.


  • I don’t know why but lately i’ve been having a lot of fun with S.T.A.L.K.E.R. G.A.M.M.A, played the first three games ages ago and then about 2 years ago stumbled upon a YT about the best mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly and was like wtf is that? something new came out and i completely missed it and then the whole rabbit hole dive to learn what it actually is, died 20 times in the first hour around rookie village because i couldn’t understand the healing system, but it’s rewarding to stick with it and from what i heard it’s on gog now where it’s kinda free but if you go to moddb and discord you can get it for free but is a bit more complicated and offers a ton of content and should run even on potatoes that are 15 years old. The point is 60-70$ for 1 new game that will run at 30 fps on your 5 year old rig at low settings isn’t worth it anymore when there are better older cheaper alternatives.
