Epic still does good giveaways sometimes, and usually awesome ones over Xmas. Hogwarts was free up to yesterday, and a game called Hordes of Hell is free till tomorrow morning when the next mystery free game is revealed.

I haven’t really enjoyed pokemon for quite some time now. It started off as a fun casual rps style game with a simple and entertaining story to follow. Then they kept adding more complexity to it and it just kinda fell off for me.

I quit Nintendo ages ago. As a company, they’re assholes. Then they want to charge $50 for a game that’s 5 years old and 2 generations behind in graphics. Just can’t hold a candle to PC or even the other consoles. The only thing they have left is like 4 game IP’s

Usually in the most petty of ways.

I’ll keep my unkillable Gen 2 Prius. 281,000 miles on the odometer, original engine, replaced the hybrid battery a few years back with a brand new one from Toyota (that I installed myself after convincing a dealership to just sell one to me) and knock on wood, but that’s the last maintenance item I’ve even had to spend any money on.

Too bad quality dropped off after the Gen 2 years.

Tostinos pizzas used to be the perfect size and tasted good.

They shrank them. Then made them square. Then shrank them again.

Clickbait and ai bullshit from Google feed is pretty much all I’ve ever seen from them in the past year.

Mostly all thanks to Gamers Nexus, I’d wager.

In the dwindling amount of phones that will allow you to install GOS on them?

Zoom in even closer right at the middle. There’s a little Yoda standing up facing straight back at you.

Thermals wouldn’t get too hot, but wireless charging is terribly inefficient. If using a battery pack that’s say 20,000mah in size, you’ll only normally get about 14,000mah worth of charge into your device going from USB C to USB C (caries with charge speed and efficiency of charge controllers involved). With wireless charging you’re probably looking at 9,000mah.

It really fucks with me when I plug in my steam deck to the TV and use my PS5 controller to play.

Nice. This is my great uncles straight razor. He came from Germany and had a barbershop in the 1940’s around Kansas City, so it’s around 80 years old.

I’d rather not ruin a hobby by making it a job.

Well we’re all curious now…

That’s a convoluted answer for me. I hand sharpen knives and straight razors as a hobby. Been doing it for like 30 years and have several hundreds of dollars in diamond and wetstones. I doubt there’s 500 people in the country (US) that are better than I am at hand sharpening.

The convoluted part is that I could charge people to sharpen knives. I just don’t want to.

My home gaming PC is a ryzen 1500x and an Nvidia 1060 GPU. Old as hell but still runs most games.

Most people on steam probably have a rig with 4+ year old hardware, and after seeing what my little steam deck oled can do, id say the steam machine will be able to out perform any 4+ year old windows system when it comes to gaming.

I don’t know why you would, except in relation to how they work with the steam deck.

Or if they implement a copy feature, move the SD card over and copy a game to internal, so you can more quickly transfer over a game without removing it from the SD card.

As you should.
