- Comment on Krafton have reportedly agreed to pay Subnautica 2's devs that $250 million bonus, following strong early sales 4 days ago:
I finished s2 with a buddy so it’s not so isolated anymore. You catch fish and eat then, but there’s no killing in the game.
I finishedy s1 but got bored early on into the second one, this feels alot like the first subnautica. It’s a really pretty game and the story ends right when it starts to get interesting. I’d probably call it the most refined initial release of an early access game I’ve played. I’m excited for the final release.

Generally drama means a shitty game though, s2 is actually good. I don’t think it would have sold less if this drama hadn’t happened. I held off on buying it due to the drama, until the reviews started coming in
- Comment on Dutch authorities seized one of Windscribe VPN's servers – here's everything we know 3 months ago:
Yep came here to say this, it being a ram only server doesn’t really help against government level attacks.
There’s a decent chance the server itself had dual power supplies, in which case you could just unplug one and plug it into a battery and you’re good to go. That simplifies things quite a bit.
- Comment on is it fine to leave steam deck in sleep mode instead pf turning it off? 6 months ago:
It’s horrible about sleeping. If you want your battery, turn it off. The latest update seems to be better, but I wouldn’t trust it in your shoes.

Wireless is not the answer. Multiple redundant fiber paths are. This isn’t rocket science.

Who the fuck is buying a digital license plate for $499 and a $8/mo subscription? Why does it need a subscription? Wtf?
- Comment on Fae Farm, Dauntless Studio Phoenix Labs Lays Off Staff, Cancels In-Development Games 2 years ago:
I work here (for a little bit longer at least). Today sucked, lost a lot of really amazing and talented folks on projects that were soooo close to completion. Came completely out of the blue from our crypto-bro overlords.
- Comment on Palia developers lay off a third of staff just weeks after cosy life sim's Steam launch 2 years ago:
They don’t generally have the funding to have multiple games in the pipeline, so that each resource is busy at all times.
It’s a shitty deal for the staff and they should contract more or something instead.

- Comment on I've just got an AppleTV+ sub. What should I watch? 2 years ago:
Damn, that’s disappointing to hear. I was looking forward to it since all the apple shows I’ve tried have had generally good writing so far.

Constellation just started and is their latest SciFi show. I haven’t tried it yet, but looks interesting.

Bluetooth works, but be aware it adds a noticeable amount of latency.

This article practically pretends that whole show didn’t exist, and only refers to the miniseries.
- Comment on eXtremeRate Announces Clicky Buttons upgrade for Steam Deck 2 years ago:
I’m intrigued and want to try them, but I worry the clicking noise would get annoying. I hold the deck a lot closer to my ears than my mouse usually is.

- Comment on Tribes 3: Rivals - Official Gameplay 2 years ago:
Oh sorry you’re totally right. I was thinking of one of the deployable that Shifter added.
- Comment on Tribes 3: Rivals - Official Gameplay 2 years ago:
The generator sounds like the Shifter mod, it wasn’t part of the stock game.
- Comment on Is there a way to enable in-chat incoming message sounds for Samsung phones? 2 years ago:
No way I know of. Hit your power button and turn the phone off when you look away.
Pretty much all apps work as you describe.
