Squad is definitely one of them! Also the Battlefield Collection is on 89% sale (only includes the ones since 2011 tho)

Disclaimer: I use kbin 99% of the time.

That said, I love using Connect when I use Lemmy

That’s fair about the staying power, but I prefer playing Multiplayer so the PS2 and 1 never hit the same (I did play them a lot as well though - I had the OG Gran Turismo, Tenchu: Stealth Assassins, Duke Nukem: Time to Kill, Metal Gear Solid and a bunch of others for PS1, and I had NFS: Underground 2, Gran Turismo: A-Spec, Medal of Honor: Frontline and a bunch of others for PS2 as well). I do respect how well they did, but I really enjoy multiplayer (and the PS2 multiplayer didn’t do it for me)

I think I’m in the minority, but PS3. It was the most powerful console of its time, it released The Last of Us, Uncharted, Gran Turismo and a ton of other classics and the PSN was free to use.

It also had my favorite game of all time on it - Littlebigplanet 2. The custom levels people made were insane.

I don’t necessarily need it anymore, but I’m sure someone would find it useful in this comments section! Thank you!

Man, just the “normies” user experience in general.

I’ve had so many issues from the start, even on “beginner friendly” distros. Hell, I’m a software engineer by trade - I literally use WSL2 every day for my job - but there are some things the OS should just do.

Prime example: wifi connectivity (er, just connectivity in general - Bluetooth included). It seems like every distro neglects this part to some degree. I’ve tried Ubuntu, Lubuntu, Linux Mint, Kinoite, countless others - but it seems like every one either has some form of Bluetooth connectivity issue (a la Kinoite not detecting my Bluetooth headphones) or a straight up wifi issue (like Ubuntu, Lubuntu and Linux Mint ALL not connecting to Panera WiFi on a wiped 2012 MacBook Pro - it was because Panera has a popup to accept wifi terms, btw, which is extremely common. Starbucks was broken too).

It’s that sort of stuff that prevents people from staying on Linux. People DO go to internet cafes to hang out and surf the web. It’s a helluva deal breaker that I need to turn on my phone’s hotspot just to connect to some Internet and then deal with LTE speeds. And as for the argument of “well that’s super old hardware” - it’s prime hardware that people will try Linux on and get pissed off.

Also, Nvidia support. It’s one of the most popular graphics card options - it’s a deal breaker that it doesn’t work out of the box on a lot of distros. Never ran into this myself, but just scroll here for a bit to see how prevalent it is.

I REALLY want to daily Linux but man, these issues prevent it (even now that I’ve moved on from the MacBook). If you really wanna help Linux grow, fix these problems and / or work on improving the “non-technical” user experience. You shouldn’t need to know what KDE is to use your desktop, nor should you need to Google like 15 things to get thru the installer with certainty.

I know this will get a lot of hate, and I really really want to love Linux, but I’ve been burned often so I’m skeptical.

I also had no idea he made RSS

Not here to comment on the Justin Roiland thing, just here to say you should watch Karl Jobst on the whole Completionist controversy

Trump’s presidency was the best thing that ever happened to this nation

Bill O’Reilly had a lot of great points

Programming isn’t hard at all, it’s just \<\this> and anyone who is not able to grasp that is immediately stupid

Basically anything creationist in nature stating it as fact

You could watch Pitch Black (not sure if it’s on Netflix). Vin Diesel kills it as the main character

If you ever want to ruin Princess Mononoke, just think “what exactly does the main character guy do to advance the plot?” The answer: almost nothing haha

It really is so good. I haven’t played in years but not by choice haha

People definitely still play Planetside 2

When I had a miserable case of Covid (the variant that gives extreme nausea) the only way I was able to eat anything at all was saltine crackers. The only way I could drink anything was ice cubes (sucking on them slowly)

Try those out! If they don’t work, definitely call a doctor. Have someone check up on you, last thing you want is to black out and die (which is very easy to have happen)

If you’ve never drank coffee, you should be using Windows lol

Lemmy.world as Picard Maneuver explained, but also Artemis.camp is down too (which is ~1000 people).

As a long-time Tenchu fan, I feel this was about Sekiro to be honest. It started life as Tenchu 5, then got turned mid-development into Sekiro. I just wish it had a bigger emphasis on stealth, rather than just swordfighting…

Discord nickname that originated from OneShot (the game my icon is from). I chose it like 4 or 5 years ago and it stuck on Discord so I just adopted it to here

In the US, public transit is almost universally unavailable. If it is available, it’s a massive luxury (or strictly necessary, like NYC).
