OP is not exactly coming up with good examples, but I think the point is you can analyse anything and claim that there is some hidden political message, even if it was not intended by the developers. Even Gilgamesh, one of the oldest text ever found, has scholars discussing gender and sexuality. I don’t think Gilgamesh and Enkidus relationship was considered political at the time the story was written down, but in a new context and a new political landscape it can suddenly be political.

Too bad it’s made by Ubisoft.

I had a time where I had to make new friends in a new city, and what I learned is that you have to take initiative a lot in the beginning of a new friendship. You have to suggest something to do together maybe the first 2 - 4 times. After some time it should be more equal if not find some other friends.

Why are they insisting on this PSN madness? They make themselves look like complete idiots.

Immich might work.

I will never understand why Pokémon fans keep buying thee very mid games.

How does that help shareholders? Democracy is when shareholders get richer! Something something pension funds and trickle down economics.

Could it be that so many is using it that they don’t have the capacity anymore? This technology does require crazy amount of resources to work.

Ghost is getting activitypub support.

We need a second Gollum game.

I still dont understand why we need bluesky.

I don’t think it’s required for single player games.

When was the last time EA had an idea that made things better for the customers… you know like how companies are supposed to work. Customers pay and in exchange they get something that makes their lives a little better. But it’s always just about extracting value and giving as little as possible back.

“Here take the same reskinned soccer game, now a little bit more expensive, with ads and new bugs, and some micro transactions, because you should pay us more, because fuck you”

At least people should cancel their game passes.

If it’s possible, it might be some proprietary version that games can’t run without.

They will probably use some version of DLSS that’s hard to emulate.

Wii had backwards compatibility, same with Wii U. Switch couldn’t use disk so it couldn’t be. All the Gameboys had it. Super Nintendo as well. 3Ds and DS had it. Nintendo often do it.

Should we really pollute Lemmy with AI spambots? What’s even the point of humans taking time to interview, research and write a text if some soulless bot is just going to reduce the text to some key points.

From Reddit:

“I bought an Umbrel.com home server hoping to have a dedicated device to run my favorite software on. I spent $500 and got an Umbrel.

Their “app store” is small, outdated (from an app update perspective), and filled with cryptocurrency junk. I should also mention that its difficult to use non-approved software, requiring your own GitHub repo with config files, docker setup, and a few other things. No one-click button to import software.

The hardware is half as good as a used 1L mini-PC that you can get on Amazon for $170, and itll give you more control.

The Umbrel has an HDMI port hidden inside, so if you want to use it you must cut a hole in the side for it. The only way to accees its interface is with a slow, buggy, and heavy web UI.

Don’t buy an Umbrel, buy a $100 used 1L machine and save yourself a headache and $400.

EDIT: I asked for a refund and was denied since they don’t offer them to anyone. Huge red flag!”

Are the devs really lazy, or are they just too few, because management are too greedy?
