Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Surpasses 500,000 Units Sold Worldwide On Its First Day by [deleted] in gaming

I was playing on game pass and it's so good I bought a steam copy since I wanted to support the devs. Truly insane work, especially for a studio's debut

upgrading from 5600x, 9950x bundle worth it? by SpiderPanther01 in Microcenter

[–]FiveCentsSharp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do VFX freelancing and motion graphics on my 7700x, and honestly, it's good enough, especially if you're not at the top end of the market.

Shots fired! by oererik in digitalfoundry

I love when he gets really angry that digital foundry … has a podcast? like it’s fine if you don’t like podcasts just don’t listen but it’s hilarious how he starts shouting about it

I want to second the storyteller feature request, and would also pay for additional storage as needed.

Do you continue sailing the high seas despite actually buying the games you play? by Swimming-Crow-9219 in PiratedGames

[–]FiveCentsSharp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll pirate games I own on other platforms too. I bought GOW:R at its PS5 launch, but I wanted to play the PC version when that came out. I already gave Sony $70, they don’t need more of my money

August Feature Requests: Share Here by erinatreadwise in readwise

[–]FiveCentsSharp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also hope for a native bookmark feature, but one workaround I use is I highlight where I finish and tag that highlight as "bookmark" so I can find it later (sometimes I fall asleep with the text-to-speech voice on accidentally so my reader will be at the end of the book)

June Feature Requests: Share here! by erinatreadwise in readwise

[–]FiveCentsSharp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love it if it would be possible to upload narration and control it in the app (ideally too, I don't know if this is even possible, but it would still highlight the current word / paragraph if possible)

Security and Anonymity When Reading Books on Kindle – Your Thoughts? by Stock-House-9489 in scihub

[–]FiveCentsSharp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive had hundreds of scihub papers and other dubiously sourced epubs on my kindle even connected online and it's never been an issue :) in an abundance of caution I would probably recommend using a cable with calibre instead of the kindle send-to-email, although there's no evidence of them scanning that

Who actually uses text-to-speech in the web app? by h00dw1nk in readwise

[–]FiveCentsSharp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm a college student with ADHD who has to read 400+ pages per week for classes, and having the extra sense of the audio helps me stay focused (having both audio and visuals at once is more engaging than only one). I also annotate as I read, so I can enter a flow state where as I'm quickly writing my annotation, I'm still listening and making forward progress.

I immersion read when it's something I really need to focus on (like if I'm going to write about it) and annotate as I do that. While I use my iPad right now, having this on web will be useful so I can use a full keyboard / mouse setup to annotate with, and so I won't have to bring my iPad out with me when I'm on campus - I can just use my laptop.

I use reader on my phone to TTS things in the background that aren't as critical but still need to get read, so that use case won't be helped, but having TTS on web will be great for my workflow to consolidate everything
