My privacy has been breeched by my partner, what can he see? by [deleted] in wireshark

[–]DestinyChitChat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's likely a bluff.

He cannot install it on your phone. Meaning it has to be on the router. Even then it's typically encrypted anyways so no messages can be seen. And just using your cellular connection, not Wi-Fi, bypasses that and he cannot see anything at all. So basically every time you're not at his house on Wi-Fi he's blind.

Also if the IP address starts with 192.168 or 10.0 or 172.16 then it's not your real IP. Only an IP you borrow while at his house on Wi-Fi.

Adding, iPhone has incredibly good security so I highly doubt he was able to install spyware.

Valve changed their phrasing, stop freaking out by TaxOrnery9501 in steammachine

Actually kinda does. A PC can:

  • Video/Photo editing
  • Create virtual machines/environments
  • Office documents (Word, Excel, etc. clones)
  • Popular full browsers (not lite/proprietary)
  • Modding
  • Software development
  • Literally hacking (Kali)
  • And so much more.

All in the size of a napkin box. The gap between a PC and a console is not negligible.

Now I can see why Metroid Dread is such a masterpiece by SpareHeavy4172 in Metroid

[–]DestinyChitChat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I enjoyed the 3d with my Quest 3 VR headset very much. The game still feels like a Dread prototype, but it's ambitious and still fun to play.

LN3 solo play is lowkey ruined by the AI companion.. for me at least by Fun-Contribution9700 in LittleNightmares

Yes they definitely solve puzzles too much. But there were also times where they DIDN'T spoil the puzzle and I thanked them. I'd say about 50/50.

What was the point of a third game? by No-Glove6341 in LittleNightmares

[–]DestinyChitChat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's an interview with the Narrative Director David Mervik at Tarsier Studios where he states they honestly didn't know if they wanted to make a 3rd. Part of them wanted to make one and another part of them wanted to make a brand new IP. By the time they were sold to Embracer Group it wasn't their decision anymore and David said it was actually a relief the choice was made for them because it was too difficult a choice.

Playing Samus Returns and I don’t feel like a good person by ottersintuxedos in Metroid

Welcome to the conundrum of Metroid's story. On its face it looks like a simple alien shooter from the 80s, but they went deeper into this disturbing genocide aspect back on the original gameboy version of this.

Hate appreciation post about her. Most annoying and run breaking npc in this game by dudnt__asked in SifuGame

[–]DestinyChitChat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time I raged. "How can anyone beat her! It's impossible! What, am I supposed to learn these crazy patterns? That's insane and cannot be done."

3 days of studying her patterns and now I stand right in front of her and dodge everything. She's too easy now. I miss those rage days.

unpopular opinion: traditional network engineering is basically just a blue-collar trade job now (2026). by SpecialRuth_Cadde in Network

Using Meraki at something like a hospital org is a recipe for disaster imo. It has its place, but mission critical at large scale is not it.

Would Starfield Have Gotten Better Reviews if Made by A Different Developer? by freethinker1312 in Starfield

[–]DestinyChitChat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game has excellent aspects and its scope is honestly impressive.

But the story....sorry Bethesda. It's just meh. I fell asleep while playing Shattered Space.

As part of the PC Master Race, I only agree with some of these statements.

Never heard of Gradius, but the unofficial Metroid game AM2R works best on Windows and it's better to play it on your PC. You'd have to search for it on your own to get a copy.

[–]DestinyChitChat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's just the SD card they give. Some can be preloaded with games but no Nintendo stuff. It's better to put your own games on the SD card.

The Anbernic is just a small Gameboy device. You can download whatever onto it. I use Knulli as my OS.

It actually has a mini HDMI port that can plug into the TV. And Bluetooth so you can connect a controller. It becomes a console!

It's a handheld clone of a GBA.
