- Comment on Lawmakers seek crackdown on China-owned U.S. farmland as Trump meets with Xi Jinping 3 days ago:
Yeah, I mean, go ahead and complain all you want, Trump’s gonna do whatever makes him the most money, and if that doesn’t agree with your interests then you’re fucked.
You should’ve thought about that before you voted for him.
- Comment on Elon Musk settles with the SEC for $1.5 million after years-long dispute over his Twitter investment 1 week ago:
You’re actively ruining the world with your ego!
That will cost you that nickle you found on the street on your way into the courtroom today and a resounding tsk you naughty boy!
Tsk!
- Comment on Why a new Steam Machine when the first ones flopped? Because this time, Valve say, it'll actually have games 5 months ago:
Agreed. Saying that just because an application layer that allows it to run on Linux exists will prevent developers from simply exporting the game and making the few critical changes necessary in order to make it work on Linux natively are two entirely different things.
The developers that export their games to run on Linux natively will likely have a higher sales rate for their Linux users, as us, the users, will know that the developer cares enough to do the proper export, and therefore we are likely to have some level of support should something go awry.
Whereas with proton, we have to rely on community notes in order to solve incompatibility issues, which can be a major hurdle for the less technologically inclined, AKA the majority of computer users
- Comment on Nintendo bans Switch 2 owner after they played used Switch 1 games — decision eventually reversed after 'proving innocence’ 9 months ago:
I remember when people used to complain about the annoyance and difficulty inherent in keeping up with the Joneses, and yet it seems like we have learned nothing as a society.
If you’re gonna spend $500 on a Switch 2 because you want little Billy to be able to play the newest latest games so that his friends won’t think he’s a weirdo, then you’re in for a penny, you’re in for a pound, fucking shell out.
But if you just want little Billy to have some games to play to keep himself active and interested and, you know, not spiraling into drug addiction and depression, because apparently that’s the only alternative to being a gamer, you could buy them like a really nice 200 some odd dollar Anbernic handheld that comes pre-installed with, you know, 5,000 video games and let him play that.
And if his friends complain about how he can’t play the latest Switch 2 Mario Kart game, you tell billy to tell them to go suck a dick while he’s 100%ing Majora’s Mask.
