Fuck YouTube shorts. It's infuriating that YouTube doesn't provide us an option to remove all traces of that fuckin cancer from the platform.

I gave Starfield a fair chance, I played it for 20 hours, patiently waiting on why it deserved an "8.4" rating from critics. But it never delivered. The gameplay is a copy of Fallout 4, the user interface is a mess (they've gone backwards somehow) and the world is just so generic and uninspiring that I couldn't bear one more minute of it.

I can see why it's got a 5.5 from real players.

On a side note, the gaming reviews now mirror Rotten tomatoes. What the professional paid "critics" love, doesn't necessarily mean the players do, and vice versa. The real players always give a more fair rating.

Umm, anything you access on the Internet has to know your IP address, that's how the Internet works. Whether or not they choose to keep the logs is a different matter.

Just wait 10-20 years. It seems what's acceptable to say changes all the time.

20 years ago "queer" was offensive.

I guess you're right, we need to actually post content for others to join. It's tough because I don't necessarily have anything to post right now, but it was nice to scroll through the subreddit to find new things in the personal finance topics.

Critic score or audience score? Because boy, there's a difference

The biggest problem I have with LEDs is they're supposed to last forever yet mine die every few months.

Haha, not even close comparison. Todd has been remaking the same game in the same engine for over 20 years. It's just Elder Scrolls, Elder Scrolls in post-apocalypse and Elder Scrolls in space.

You can't fault them for not giving it a fair chance.

I played for about 25 hours before I gave up.

Those 25 hours were mostly me waiting for the moment when it would finally get better. The moment never arrived.

I'm happy to stay on the climate doomed Earth while you can take my spot on Mars.

That's YouTube's goal: to completely funnel you into their algorithm instead of you being able to choose the content you want to watch.

My net worth reports already include unrealized gains by default. Perhaps you're not tracking your stocks/securities properly, are you using the Stock account with correct tickers and pulling prices with finance quote?

Depends on my screen DPI. If pixel density is sufficiently high so that I can't see individual pixels, no reason to enable AA

Not all boomers who manually download mp3s transfer them around. I'm one of those "boomers" (I'm in my 30s) that download their mp3s because I like to own my stuff. I then stream it to my devices using a selfhosted media server without transferring anything.

I hate this trend in games where now everything wants to fuck you, regardless of gender or species.

Yeah, I loved Ego Draconis. DOS 1 and 2 are fine, but too many characters to worry about and too much inventory management. I'd love another single player first/third person RPG in the Divinity universe.

I also have the GOG version but it doesn't have controller support or higher resolution support. Did Aspyr's update made it to GOG?
