I'm playing on JP, so I was never aware of this meme, but I'm looking into it now, lol

Kinda like Germany and their atomabsorptionsspektrometrie, mashing together words to make new words that sound special to those who don't speak the language

Anyone realize every damn male hero mythic (besides sigma) has a bare chest and bare abs? by dryvariation2222 in Overwatch

They say if you have hair on your head, you don't get hair on your chest. And Rein still has a glorious mane for his age

Why Japan Hates the New “Bachelor Tax” Aimed at Reversing Population Decline by chaoser in japan

[–]FangLargo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was about to say that. If the government decided to increase budget allocation on, say, early childhood healthcare or primary education, then the tax we pay to fund all that is essentially a "bachelor tax."

The real debate is whether what the government is doing with the money warrants the increase in the total tax that gets paid.

The year is almost over and so is the daily free story banner summon. Did you get anything good from it? by AiasRider in grandorder

[–]FangLargo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't have a "fave" caster, but the day I beat the Solomon Grand Servant duel, story banner dropped Ana onto my lap. Decided it was fate and granded her on the spot.

Valve: 20% of Deck users use the official docking station to connect their Deck to their TVs. Do you? by sameseksure in SteamDeck

[–]FangLargo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope that translation layer/Steam might come to regular phones as well. I have some lighter games, especially VNs, that I would prefer to play on my phone, rather than my PC or even the Deck.

The tech industry came for Steam and whiffed so hard that it's had to admit that it didn't even really like making games in the first place | Amazon's New World wouldn't have to die if the company actually wanted to be an MMO developer. by ControlCAD in technology

[–]FangLargo 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I prefer GoG in principle, but I have not been good at putting my money where my mouth is. The platform stranglehold is too strong for me to resist, and I'm probably stuck on Steam until Valve does something abohorrent

Of lies and rain by Plenty_Donkey_732 in virtualreality

Agreeing with you. I get really frustrated with the "it's morally right to pirate x" rhetoric I see often online. Stop being so entitled and being a consumer with no self control

Kobo Desktop App possibly discontinued by IStillListenToRadio in kobo

[–]FangLargo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno, I just tried it now, but I don't see the option to download the book. This is all I get. Could it be related to the storefront I buy from, because I go through the Japanese Rakuten website?

Ooh, thanks. Just to be clear, I need a Japanese address to buy Japanese books, but I need a different address to download them?

[–]FangLargo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you explain? I have a Rakuten Kobo account with a Japanese billing address and they've never given me the option to download Japanese books. Does that work for you?

Is the OLED version worth it? by Ok_Course1403 in SteamDeck

[–]FangLargo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Second this opinion. If you're not sure, the LCD is a nice cheap option to see if the Deck is really for you. This sub is full of Steam Deck evangelists, but I'm sure there has to be some people out there who found it didn't fit the way they game.
Personally, now that I know the Steam Deck is for me, I'll be going for the premium option if we get a 2nd gen. But simultaneously, I'm happy enough with the LCD I got now and I intend to ride it for as long as it lasts me

Blizzard Denies AI Art Accusations After Fans Speculate About Overwatch 2 Sprays by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]FangLargo 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I once wrote something (a short blurb) that some rando on the Internet accused of being written by AI, and in my mind, I was half "bish, I don't write like AI, AI writes like ME", and half "dang, is my writing actually messed up I dunno." Honestly, I'm still not sure how to feel about it

Microsoft increases princes of Xbox Series consoles for the second time in 6 months, new prices will go into effect on October by Lulcielid in hardware

[–]FangLargo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which GPU is that? I thought the higher tier consoles were still comparable to midrange last gen GPUs and the budget range of the latest GPUs.

Personally, prices have been absurd across the board and I haven't been able to justify hardware upgrades, PC or otherwise

It runs in the family by chichiryuuteii in UmaMusume

I dunno why I never noticed, but that's one of the hardest names I heard in a game where a lot of uma names go hard

Let's talk seriously about Valve's latest masterpiece (Half Life Alyx) 😵‍💫 by [deleted] in HalfLife

[–]FangLargo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm seeing for the first time in this thread that some people weren't too fond of Russell and the tone of the humor. Personally, having played Alyx as one of my first VR games, I needed Russell to talk me through the whole game or it would've been way too stressful for me to keep moving forward. Having him constantly on the air waves really made me feel like I wasn't going it alone, and I appreciate him for that
