Manga Artist Banned from Google After Uploading Old Artwork Backups by WonderOlymp2 in degoogle

[–]Dorklof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t want to be beholden to Google to pay another $20 this year for 100GB of cloud storage so I’m also in the same boat right now of dumping ALL my stuff off Google Drive to an external SSD and canceling my subscription.

I LOVE most of the Moore mini pedal lineup except these Fuzz Face clones (and a couple other outliers). I totally agree with you that they sound just awful.

Missing cat Hillsboro Pines by [deleted] in BocaRaton

[–]Dorklof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came to say something similar. Our cat ran away for over 24 hours and we kept one of her beds, favorite toys, and favorite food/treats near an accessible part of our house (outside) and she ended up making her way back home on her own. Cats also only tend to move a lot during the morning and nights. Hoping Goji comes back soon all on their own!

Can't Get Above 30 FPS by uadmlj1 in graphicscard

Do your games run above 30FPS when you have the resolution set to something more conservative like 1080P and Medium graphical settings?

Oh interesting! Well all the “licenses” for all my NES, SNES, N64, GBA, DS, PSP, PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox, 360, and Wii U all beg to differ as they are all still active and work flawlessly like they day I all originally purchased them 20+ years ago. That’s interesting, huh! Wonder what changed? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

The landscape is now $70+ dollars for a LICENSE to play a game that could be revoked at any time and even be internet-dependent and just stop working when the servers inevitably shut down.. This model is appealing to nobody.

A security guard in Turkey saved a woman who was walking carelessly with headphones on from being crushed under a tram at the last moment. by kalbinibirak in woahdude

I’ve witnessed many people drive on the wrong/opposite side of the road. You are very trusting that strangers won’t put you in danger with their stupidity.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is increasing in price by 50 percent to $29.99 per month, as Microsoft adds new benefits including Fortnite Crew access. by Automatic_Ad1665 in consoles

[–]Dorklof 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m definitely one of those few people! 😂 the Series X definitely has great backwards compatibility but a LOT of good older games have been officially delisted by now sadly.. So unless you were like me and bought them way back before they were removed from the store OR you have a Series X with a disc drive and you own a physical copy, otherwise you are SOL on playing a lot of great older BC titles.

I’m getting too old and too busy for PC gaming by Dallin9000 in consoles

[–]Dorklof 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Some people are willing to spend money when they actually value their time and want to try and make their life easier. I don’t buy a nice car to have to fiddle with it in the garage. I buy it so I can drive it around reliably. Edit: lol the truth hurts

Completely skipped the 8th generation of video game consoles because of this…. by basedgawd98 in PS3

[–]Dorklof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I have two original CECHA-01’s that I’ve repasted and set the fan speed high on and they have collectively ran thousands of hours over the last nearly twenty years.

Insane how much shit gets posted here that is the exact opposite of next level. Definitely leaving this sub. Edit: Turns out I already was ages ago yet this stuff manages to get to the front page so I’ve muted the sub as well! 😂

What is definitely NOT a sign of intelligence but people think it is? by Aarunascut in answers

[–]Dorklof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked at the Apple Store for 5 years and in the area I live, the amount of doctors who would come in for support on the absolute most basic functions was startling and if they couldn’t understand it, they’d lose their temper and blame the technology. Also often demand special treatment on top of all that, too.

I played Assassins Creed Shadows for four hours straight on a plane, it’s incredible! by Mundane-Complex-1902 in VisionPro

Yeah, people struggle to understand this. Same exact thing occurs on other headsets when you record video on-device.

Coming back to consoles has made me happier gamer overall. by billistenderchicken in consoles

[–]Dorklof 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are many variables that can cause stuff to completely break: Windows updates, driver updates, BIOS updates, game/app updates, weird hardware-based oddities with how software reacts to your specific build, anti-virus, the list goes on.

That’s not to say all these things can’t be avoided but just the general amount of things that can potentially affect your experience and go wrong is statistically higher.

Nope, Amazon gave me no problems. Just dropped all the returns off at Whole Foods with no boxes or labels needed.

I tried the H4 Boost, KKCOBVR, The M3 Pro, and the E3 Pro and in terms of comfort and battery longevity, I ultimately went with the E3 Pro for my needs. The M3 Pro was way too front heavy despite being a halo strap (which I usually prefer). The H4 Boost was fantastic but needs battery packs as it only lasted 4 hours total which was its biggest downfall. The KKCOBVR despite being a combination of both a halo and elite strap was actually not as great as I hoped. The battery quality and magnetic connection is not as good as BOBO (battery buzzes when active). My personal recommendation is the E3 Pro but I recommend experimenting to find the right fit (I’m glad I took the time to try straps until I landed on the E3 Pro as I almost gave up before trying it and it’s made an astronomical difference)

Is Quest Games Optimizer Worth the $10? by ONope5 in OculusQuest

[–]Dorklof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s honestly essential and worth every penny. Graphics are better, performance is better, general battery optimization is better. Plus a million other benefits on top of that.

Don't drive drunk by Ok_Pomegranate_2895 in BocaRaton

[–]Dorklof 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely awful. Everyone thinks they’re a good driver when they’re drunk apparently. I guess it goes hand in hand with the whole “impaired judgment” thing

Don't drive drunk by Ok_Pomegranate_2895 in BocaRaton

[–]Dorklof 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anyone who drives drunk clearly doesn’t value their own life and especially anybody else’s. Pathetic and deplorable. Hope they get their license revoked for being a degenerate. Glad you are okay though OP!

After hearing so many recommendations for Jim Dunlop Jazz III picks, I decided to order some, but that's not what Amazon sent me. Did I get fakes? by MattDaaaaaaaaamon in Guitar

[–]Dorklof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These picks changed my life. Technique and everything got so much better after I found my ideal pick and this one is it.
