Alternatively, Sync had so many updates that paying for Ultra once so many years ago felt like I stole it. It's like $17 a year? I could do that easily to support the dev.

Read the update. Looks like an ex was trying to get him cancelled. But I guess a lot of other shit came out.

It really just might be idiots with too much money. Musk makes changes willy nilly without much peer review in the similar way the Titanic sub rich guys did before it imploded.

Then Steve Huffman was like, "Hey, I wanna get investors and money! Screw the people, the whole site is mine to play with like Elon does."

Money corrupts, man. It's overly worshipped by society because of its necessity and now here we are. It's a whole other system for the rich vs the poor.

But to go along your route of thinking, I'd still say no because powerful social media is even powerful when the people who use it are heavily propagandized. (especially by Russia) So when communities fracture into safer sites, propaganda loses its grip and has to work harder to spread influence.

Man this is all so interesting to see so many unique situations testing the Fediverse to see how it holds up.

Shooters are wonderful with Gyro. Like Roboquest or Gunfire Reborn with just the right settings can feel amazing. But online shooters like Battlebit Remastered I definitely recommend using a bigger screen for such smaller details in the distance that could kill you.

Also the d-pad, although I have a very early release version, is atrocious. Only useful for inventory and not for actual older games or fighters because the diagonals require ridiculous squeezing to input. I might need to do a tape modification of something.

Other than that, the Deck is absolutely amazing!

There's 3 people working on this game and there's hundreds of cheaters popping up every other day. It's a massive load.

Especially when they also have to deal with DDOS attacks as they try to keep their servers alive for so many people too.

It's 100% warranted and I'm glad they still saved a path for Linux. Even if it's like, "You must be on the STEAM Kernal" or something, it might unlock a path for other anti-cheat to have some sort of access on Linux as well.

Right off the bat I can tell you it's like Metroid and Celeste had a baby with a grappling hook system. It also has controller support! Story just drops you in the middle of things which is... An odd choice but I guess it's a piecing together kind of thing. Charming music as well.

It's odd that they say Steam Link is a bad option because of video and audio decoding, but you can disable all of that and just stream inputs. But idk about Wi-Fi solutions. Sometimes my friend and I connected our Steam Deck to the main pc and we'd both completely drop inputs out of nowhere for 1 minute or so at the same time. (PC connected to ether net and all that)

I have no idea what that was, but boy a hardware solution or Bluetooth would be nice.

I can't imagine how hard it was to connect together the sparse stories of Overwatch into a whole show.

But it does suck that all the hype is blown out the window due to how mismanaged this IP was. I hope the anime at least does OK so that Blizzard can use the medium for future projects.

It might be because most of us Americans lick the boots of corporations for free or get in line to.

Ryan George is an absolute genius

Just try to find extra ways to extract enjoyment out of the tougher tasks. Turn it into a game AND REWARD yourself for getting through it.
