- Comment on What if you could use your phone to type in text fields when playing docked? 1 day ago:
Yeah, it didn’t work for me last time I tried, but yeah, it could have been fixed by now. It’s definitely the right direction to try, it’s the perfect solution for OP.

Does it work in game mode now? I thought it was only in desktop mode.
- Comment on Linus Torvalds reckons AI is ‘90% marketing and 10% reality’ 3 weeks ago:
I have copilot in my IDE and it’s basically worse than the ‘dumb’ autocomplete that just builds off the existing codebase. Copilot knows all the code on GitHub, but doesn’t seem to know anything about the local codebase.
- Comment on Valve will finally sell the Steam Deck in Australia 5 weeks ago:
I paid A$1,189.00 for the 1TB OLED one, Valve will be selling it for A$ 1,049.00. To me, that wasn’t a huge difference, especially considering there was no indication Valve was ever going to sell it here.
- Comment on Valve will finally sell the Steam Deck in Australia 5 weeks ago:
Luckily we’ve had grey imports for a while that were pretty much only a few $100 more.
- Comment on Facebook is going to show you even more content from accounts you don’t follow 1 month ago:
Jesus, the feed is already pointless as it is. I’ve just given up on it already, but they just keep going.
- Comment on New Steam Agreement gets rid of forced arbitration and waivers for class action lawsuits 1 month ago:
I think there’s a bit of a sea change in business generally where arbitration ended up being worse for corporations if too many customers/employees used that option because it meant paying a bunch of money for each case instead of dealing with one class action suit.
While the arbitration courts themselves are generally biased to corporate interests, it’s not enough of a thumbs on the scale to make up for it.
- Comment on Valve heads to PAX Australia for the first time, maybe they'll finally get the Steam Deck 2 months ago:
I bought it recently as a grey import, it’s still worth getting if you want to do some gaming on the go.
- Comment on A European consumer watchdog wants you to be able to buy exactly as much in-game currency as you need, not fixed chunks 2 months ago:
You could charge VAT on it in the countries where that’s applied.

- Comment on Black Myth: Wukong shows very clearly Valve are selling a lot of Steam Decks 2 months ago:
Even if they were working on it, they wouldn’t tell, otherwise a bunch of people would be waiting on the steam deck 2 instead of buying the current one.
- Comment on Portable CD players are back and now work with wireless headphones 3 months ago:
With current technology you could make them a lot better. Basically put 700mb of flash memory on the player and rip the whole thing as soon as you put the CD in, then play from flash. But then you get back to why you would want to do something like that again.
- Comment on Mystery malware destroys 600,000 routers from a single ISP during 72-hour span 5 months ago:
Could be an extortion scheme of some kind.
- Comment on Google is killing off the messaging service inside Google Maps 5 months ago:
Never even knew this was a thing. Sounds like it could’ve been handy if I’d known about it.
- Comment on Spotify is going to break every Car Thing gadget it ever sold 5 months ago:
But we’re paying for no ads. Spotify could give them a slice of the premium money.
- Comment on Spotify is going to break every Car Thing gadget it ever sold 5 months ago:
No, what GP means is that some podcasts have an ad break, and Spotify will inject ads relevant to your region/demographic, even if you pay for premium.
This isn’t the host reading copy from their sponsors which, fair enough, would be hard to strip out in many cases.
- Comment on US man used AI to generate 13,000 child sexual abuse pictures, FBI alleges 5 months ago:
I think stable diffusion is an open source AI you can run on your own computer, so I don’t see how the developers should be held responsible for that.
- Comment on Razer to pay out over $1 million in refunds over its misleading (and hideous) Zephyr face mask 6 months ago:
I’m just amazed they apparently sold a million dollars worth of this thing.
- Comment on Users shocked to find Instagram limits political content by default 7 months ago:
Yeah, that’s probably the main differentiator between Instagram and the hellhole that is Facebook.
- Comment on The Sims movie in the works from Barbie’s Margot Robbie and director of Loki and The Last of Us Season 2 7 months ago:
Barbie was a literal dollhouse.
- Comment on CBS Sued by ‘SEAL Team’ Scribe Over Alleged Racial Quotas for Hiring Writers 8 months ago:
They’re probably forum shopping, they’ll withdraw if it ends up in front of the ‘wrong’ judge until they get one that was put in by Trump.
- Comment on Facebook plans to shut down its news tab in the US and Australia 8 months ago:
I didn’t even know there was a news tab? I just checked and don’t see anything like that in there.

Wtf is that thumbnail?

Except he’s the one that hired the armorer.
- Comment on Kevin Hart Says He Won’t Host the Oscars Again: Awards Shows ‘Aren’t Comedy-Friendly Environments Anymore’ 10 months ago:
Pretty sure Seth Myers caused Trump to run for President tho. Or maybe it was his opening act
- Comment on Golden Globes Host Jo Koy Booed During Monologue, Blames His Writers 10 months ago:
Typically comedians are the only thing worth watching in an award show like that. Otherwise it’s just a procession of thank you speaches. You need something to break that up, IMHO.
- Comment on Google "Work"space 11 months ago:
Yeah, just trying to understand what OP meant here. Didn’t know the Google suite had a bad reputation.
- Comment on Google "Work"space 11 months ago:
Heh, our company is bigger but I guess we don’t use spreadsheets the way you do. At least on the dev side basic functionality is fine, and our core business runs on real databases and stuff like AWS quicksight.
- Comment on Google "Work"space 11 months ago:
Compared to what? We use some of the Google stuff (mail, calendar, meet and Google office) and they do the job.
- Comment on According to the site "What does the internet think?" when asked about Elon Musk - The internet is very positive about 'Elon Musk'. And that's why you shouldn't believe everything you read online. 11 months ago:
Even Hitler comes out positive.
