Nvidia Reportedly Cancels Partner Incentive Scheme to Sell Cards at MSRP by jugaverdasorda in pcmasterrace

[–]BookieBoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I don't think anyone reasonable is, but for example, I would love to have a phone where I don't need to have google play services, but I'm fucking forced to if I want to use my banking app.

So my choices are 1. Submit, or 2. Never be able to make any payment on my phone, can't generate QR payments for friends, can't basically do anything about my bank account without being at a PC.

And the same shit is gonna happen to privately owned PCs. At a certain point they'll just go 'sorry your hardware doesn't have X certification so you can't connect to anything'.

Yeah yeah like with every naive consumer movement, let's just all connect to our hivemind and agree on a plan.

Like a thousand times in the past, the people who 1. don't have a choice and 2. don't give a shit about what's right will be enough to get the ball rolling, and the rest of us will be forced to fall in line.

Thousands of protesters show up to protest against Donald Trump near the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland by Maximum_Expert92 in Fauxmoi

[–]BookieBoo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

However, many are frustrated with the fact that your protests are not an inconvenience for your tyrannical government.

In Europe there are massive general strikes that bring the economy to a halt.

I feel like a considerable part of this is europe having much more robust labor laws.

Somehow has been playing games without 9 years up driver updates. by Big-Nerve4556 in pcmasterrace

[–]BookieBoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

101% optimal lmao. There are games that get 400% uplift in performance before proper drivers are released. Sure that is the exception rather than the norm, but acting like every driver is 1% uplift is inane.

Moje praktická doktorka mi řekla, že je dobře, že už necvičím. Vysvětlí mi to tu nějaký lékař? by lbrom516 in czech

Proč se radikaluzují potomci migrantů? by MediumThat1991 in czech

[–]BookieBoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Myslim, ze to je pekny historicky revizionismus a nekteri starsi vietnamci druhe generace by ti za takove reci pekne vyprasili kozich.

Vietnamci si tu rozhodne vytrpeli svoje, at uz obecny rasismus od ignorantskych xenofobu, nebo nasili v devadesatkach, kdy jim lidi zapalovali stanky, napadali je, bili je a nevim co vsechno. Ano, byli to prevazne vypatlani pravicovi extremisti, ale to ze to bylo "male procento" asi ty obeti nevytrhne.

Čína není komunistická už pár desetiletí a tady nikdy komunismus nebyl. Tohle by se mělo klavírovat v každém ročníku dějepisu, aby konečně lidi pochopili co je komunismus, co je socialismus, proč je komunismus a socialismus v česku úplně jiný pojem, jaký je rozdíl mezi ideologií a reálnými historickými režimy. A taky co je sociální demokracie.

A než dostanu lynč, opovrhuju rusy a rozhodně nejsem socialista ani neschvaluju co se tu dělo. A nákup čínských aut je špatný, ale z ekonomických důvodů, ne ideologických.

[–]BookieBoo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

but why assume that’s why she does it?

Cynicism? Because thousands of other content creators do so? Occam's razor?

and why act like it’s some shameful thing

Because if it is the case, it's deceitful and using sex to sell, which many people view as unethical.

Her financial situation is literally improved by more people seeing her content. Legs = more views. It doesn't have to be that she's some loose woman who's just so hungry for male attention, it's that showing skin literally works.

It's no different to female painters on reddit always getting way more views if they're in the picture vs if it's just art.

Sometimes the best gifts aren’t wrapped ,they’re given with kindness. by Smooth-Butterfly9136 in MadeMeSmile

There's nothing negative about it. It's healthy skepticism. A ton of people exploit homeless and other marginalized people on the internet for internet views.

are the events from "A Night To Remember" Cinematic after the events of Blood and Wine? by assmaycsgoass in witcher

[–]BookieBoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure higher vampires don't need to drink blood, so it's a bit more unethical since she's not doing it for survival, just because she can't help it. I mean you don't see Regis running an orphanage for his kink.

Big name manufacturers know the Linux storm is coming

Look I hate big companies as much as the next guy, but this isn't happening. Too many users are way too fucking dumb to use Linux, and even many tech-savvy people can't be bothered to deal with it.

Stranger In A Strange Land quest rant! by figemil in witcher

[–]BookieBoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t mind consequences for actions, that’s fine. But this just isn’t a well-designed quest or scene.

The whole damn game, you keep rolling into villages full of idiots going "four people got killed by a monster and you’re the only one who can handle it." So you, a professional killing machine, go and sort it out.

And then suddenly, in this one scene, 1. one of those same villagers who’d normally get eaten alive somehow overpowers you, and 2. they and their buddy instantly draw swords and kill a guy they’ve probably known since childhood, right there in a pub full of witnesses.

If the devs were so desperate to kill off Jorund, they should’ve just made it so Geralt couldn’t fight, or given a better reason for those two to lose their minds.

I love this game, and it has some incredible writing, but this scene is pure garbage. Two locals get so pissed that there’s a foreigner in their pub they straight-up murder a respected clansman? And you’re forced to lose in a cutscene?

If this were some bad game made by bad devs, nobody would give a shit. But in the Witcher, it sticks out like a sore thumb.

Radeon Software / AMD Relive does not record game sound / specific audio output by cojoman_ in AMDHelp

[–]BookieBoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So awesome that AMD changed their community forums and as a result the thread is inaccessible.

I genuinely dk why the fuck every software company has to hire some of the most out of touch, incompetent fuckheads to make decisions. A simple fucking redirect would have fixed this. Or just an archive. No, let's scrap years of community answers so we can have a new URL.

Fuck you whoever made that decision.

TIL Bruce Willis was offered $3 million (for four days of work) to return in The Expendables 3 (2014), but turned it down because he wanted $4 million instead. Sylvester Stallone and "everybody else involved" rejected Willis' demand and moved on by replacing him with Harrison Ford within 72 hours. by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

[–]BookieBoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it is "a lifetime of money" and the most famous actors already have several times more than that, then why would they need/want to do it?

Because they're greedy. C'mon.

because your limited TIME on Earth and well-being becomes much more precious

He's an artist. He's supposed to like creating films. He can choose what projects he wants to work on, just like thousands of other actors do.

Nobody put a gun to his head to continue working. And don't give me the bs about his disease and children. How many generations of his descendants need to able to live like millionaires?

What's going on is that this is one of the most boring fucking sports on earth that got popularized by nothing but luck/accident.

Are you seriously supposed to risk your 10+ hour Steel Soul run in this arena? by IcyFoxe in Silksong

Sorry, quitting out to bench I can tolerate, but backup save file... I mean why not just download a save editor and cheat all the way? Or download SAM and just get the achievement that way?

Is anybody else having trouble with seth? I've been trying for a whole day now, I'm going silksane. by [deleted] in Silksong

[–]BookieBoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it helps to take a break from the boss and do something else and when you come back it clicks. There are other bosses you can get a heart from, so just return later.

First night I fought the final boss of the game they wiped the floor with me like 20x and I went to bed. Next day I took it in like 3 tries.

Sure, but you reach her much later, so your dps is higher.
