New Terrifier film looks to be solid, great to see another take on the “evil Santa” trope from the 90s

Oh no! Time to retroactively pretend the thing I liked was always bad.

Well that sucks, can’t even think of a decent gaming news/magazine at this point.

Not like PCGamer will pickup the slack or anything. Gameinformer was cool because they covered smaller games sometimes. Feels like online gaming mags only cover big releases these days.

Pays 100$ for windows 11 pro expecting to not see targeted advertising.

“Play Candy Crush on the Windows App Store Now!” ad baked into the Lock Screen ffs why

Why make new game when old game do trick?

As others have said, the comments definitely feel more substantial / thought out here than they tend to on Reddit.

Less shitposting and people regurgitating memes for sure, but it’s been easier to actually ask a question and get an answer here.

On Reddit you end up having to filter through a bunch more BS when you’re just looking for information a lot of the time.

Valve takes obvious PR win by saying something nice to competition.

In a shocking turn of events, google decided once again to make their namesake service worse for everyone.

Legitimately baffling, keeping this feature doesn’t really seem like it would impact anyone except those that use it, while removing it not only impacts those people that already use it, but those who would potentially have reason to in the future.

Cannot think of a single benefit to removing a feature like this.

If only Microsoft relied on making edge a worthy competitor and focused on the UI/UX instead of these dumb head games.

Back when edge wasn’t just a chromium skin it was a neat idea, EdgeHTML was different at the very least and more options are always good compared to chrome monopoly bs. But at this point it’s just Microsoft branded chrome with a (kinda shitty) GPT agent baked in.

Who’s bready for a divorce?

“Uh oh, now my family is toast!”

Idk at this point Linux is definitely in a better place games wise than macOS, coming from someone who uses both.

While there are games being released natively on (macOS) sometimes, they are far fewer in number than the number of games running like-native or better through proton on Linux systems. Also even when there is a Mac version, it often lags behind in terms of updates / support in general.

I think both OSs have their upsides and downsides, from a user experience standpoint they both benefit from the lack of obnoxious Microsoft billshit that plagues windows these days.

Lost In Vivo is a pretty solid first person survival horror ish title, looks straight off of PS1 pretty much

Bastet is a good one (in-terminal tetris game)

Reminds me of some other cool game mechanics that have been patented/copyrighted leading to games as a whole losing out on fantastic ideas. The nemesis system from the Shadow of Mordor games / loading screen minigames come to mind.

Idk as long as Meta services keep forcing you to sign up for an account to view anything of value I’d imagine a lot of people will look for alternatives elsewhere.

Nothing more annoying than trying to look at the menu for a local restaurant/business page for a local business and seeing “sign up for Facebook to view this page.” Much of the utility for any kind of discussion or shared info online (imo) lies in the ability to access it quickly via search and without being forced to login.

Reddit feels less genuine for sure, than it would have even as far back as 3 years ago. The mod purge probably accelerated things greatly but in general it’s felt like Reddit was going corporate astroturfing route for a while. Real discussions are very sparse compared to the amount of people telling you “to solve problem, buy this expensive thing!”

At this point the only thing Reddit has is a numbers advantage. The videos are no huge loss because at this point since you’re forced to use their (god awful) mobile app they either autoplay obnoxiously or automatically popup obscuring the comments (discussion is 90% of why I go to a forum why make it harder to see comments?).

The desktop experience is still okay but the constant pushing to get you to enable notifications is very irritating.

I would but the cigarette lighter doesn’t work (wiring issues w/ the car 🙃)

Would be using it pretty much every day, my car doesn’t have bluetooth so I need to rely on a casette to aux converter that I stick in the tape slot. Then I end up needing to plug my (jackless) phone into a lightning to aux dongle, plug that into the aux for the cassette converter, and then finally swap to the tape deck. Super annoying and would be slightly less-so with a jack.

Welp time to start mass-buying dvd box sets and ripping the files, screw not owning shit you paid for

What would a percolator represent here? IE Something like this
