  I don’t know. I have a love-hate relationship with that game. I can’t stand playing online PvP anymore so I play their PvE mode and it is obvious that this mode doesn’t get any attention by the developers.

  On one hand it does fantastic land-air battles when the game doesn’t screw you over. On the other they can’t be bothered to follow one of the most basic rules of game design that is to make sure the players don’t get spawned into an unfair, instant-death situation, let alone trapping them in a spawn-death loop.

  That would be cool to be able to run some apps in a sandbox on a PC just because it would be far easier to circumvent the increasingly intrusive data collection.

  This is a multi billion dollar company. Fucking up worldwide updates like they’re running a high school project.

  And they want you to pay for that shit. And then pay again through bullshit subscriptions ads and harvesting your data.

  We already knew that HP was a shit company. No change there.

  People in the 80’s: “In the year 2025 we’re going to have hoverboards and flying cars!”

  2025: “I can’t use my bed because the servers are down”

  Never buy anything that needs to be connected to a server to work for no good reason.

  Windows 11 does that as well. Delete it immediately.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ChatGPT Is Still a Bullshit Machine⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The whole technology is based on a flawed simulation of intelligence. It has no understanding of the meaning of what it is saying. It will always be bullshitting.

  Stolen value.

  They’re desperately trying to justify the absurd amounts of money they’ve been sinking into the AI bubble.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Captcha requires defeating three enemies or you're Doomed to repeat it⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve tried the captcha they linked to. Holy crap. Not being able to strafe completely changed how you ‘solve’ the ‘puzzle’.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google is working on an AI agent that takes over your browser⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m imagining anything filling text and clicking buttons and it strikes me as an unbelievably annoying and unsafe.

  Filing you tax report? Sorry now you’ve committed fraud because the AI sent false information on your behalf. Went in your banking website? Looks like the AI sent a bunch of money to some random account. Going on Amazon? How weird, the AI has ordered a bunch of useless crap on your behalf.

  “No, you can’t call it UWU” “Fine, I won’t call it that”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NVIDIA stable driver 560.35.03 released for Linux with Wayland fixes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m just waiting for them to move up from 550 for the production branch. And so is anyone else running an Nvidia card with OpenSUSE. Is there any way at all to tell when that will happen?
