Wait, you can refund your kid?!

But the bed would have been cozy up until that point

I’d argue the coziness of a bed is also directly proportional to the environment you would have to wake up to. A bed in an oil rig would not be cozy since knowing you have to wake up to a life in an oil rig detracts from the experience.

If the recording equipment came with a subscription to a cloud storage provider that automatically uploaded everything you record on it by default and they did not report it to the authorities. Yes, we should.

It’s not. It’s weird that you’re defending a billionaire, bootlicker.

Notorious rape advocates are more than “people I don’t like”.

It doesn’t vibe with animal farm, though

Well, if you don’t wanna celebrate a monster dying just for the sake of it, we can look at it from an environnent perspective, taking that pos out did more for the environnent than Green Peace has in the last 10 years.

Oh, God. I started Kingdom Come Deliverance a couple of years ago and spoke to a girl in the starting farm which, apparently, is how you trigger the DLC. I finished the whole thing thinking it was just a long mission and ended up with her becoming a badass only to be thrown back to the main game in the body of the useless kid and haven’t touched it ever since.

Yep. Honestly, Lemmy feels like a circlejerk sometimes.

Oh, yeah, already did it. I was more so speaking to the experience a regular user would get out of the box.

lol this is the exact same rethoric people were spewing when Windows 7 went EOL because Windows 10 was sooo bad and now everyone’s fighting tooth and nail to keep using it. W11 is basically a better skin on W10. Just move on.

Honestly, I don’t get the hate of Windows 11. Sure, compatibility is a shitshow but if you can install it, it’s better than W10. I updated a couple months back and was pleasantly surprised. Things I like:

• Improved tiling
• The new terminal app is actually usable.
• More consistent theming
• Settings menu is no longer useless
• Last two points combined result in me not getting flashbanged nearly as often as I did in W10
• Improved volume mixer. I even ditched EarTrumpet.
• Most people won’t care about this one, but the little pop-ups that appear when you hover an icon in the system tray don’t get stuck in your screen as much as they did in W10.

Things that got worse:

• The start menu. Seriously. Stop with the redesigns.
• Taskbar is no longer movable. I liked it on the left.
• They hid the right click menu under an additional “More options” menu for some reason

Disclaimer: I only use my Windows computer for playing games. I do all of my regular day to day computing on my laptop with Fedora (KDE spin because I’m not a godless heathen I like it better). I’m also running the Education version, which is basically Enterprise so I have feature updates straight up turned off and only get security updates. It also doesn’t have any ads but my ROG Ally has W11 Home and it doesn’t have any ads either, so I don’t even know what’s real anymore.

Yep, it’s hard to make time for a several hours long hobby when you’re an adult.

strategy games usually need an hour just to remember what I was doing last, so I tend to wait until I can block out an entire evening

lol yeah, it’s like planning date night with your game.

I don’t only do dishes. Also, there are short videos.

And 1 copy is also less than 2 copies.

IIRC, the payday loan comparison he does assumes 30-something months at 365% yearly interest. Where did these 175 days you’re talking about come from?

Edit: I did not remember correctly. Disregard this comment.

Why would I swap a game for my friend to try it out when the next sale will probably happen in a couple of weeks? Literally yesterday I bought The Master Chief collection for a fiend for 10 USD. The second-hand market only really applies to anti-consumer companies like Nintendo where several years old games still retail for launch price.

Nah, I can’t game while I’m doing the dishes but I can watch a video just fine

Makes sense. I usually just put on a 2+ hours long video whenever I’m doing chores. I don’t actually care about Wolfey’s last weird team, it just makes for good background noise.
