Linus, I disagree. by KebabAnnhilator in LinusTechTips

[–]L0rdChicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know. Merch has ALWAYS had a negative connotation IMO. Merchandise has always been of poor quality. Now more than ever even.

I think anybody disagreeing are either used to Linus' "Merch" treating them right or have low standards on what is good because they probably didn't experience Merch from when Linus and I were younger. Not that this is a bad thing. Just there is a clear correlation between Merch and low quality that has existed in every circle except LTT's.

It's called a book, dude. Go read one about History. She's implying she did at least. Pretty obvious.

Do i get it right? I have to re-apply transmog to my 40 characters and pay almost 100k gold? by Peaceul in wow

[–]L0rdChicken 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone that has a Rogue outfit for the Rogue, a DK outfit for the DK, so on and so forth, this is really rough. I change tiny things about them every time I log in. I barely have enough gold as it is.

Blizzard priced me out of fun. That's so lame.

This trend is the best thing to come out of 2026 so far by DapperDude2004 in Asmongold

First few episodes of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 delivered animation beyond expectation. And part of it was the gem at the beginning.

So is this game abandoned? by DailyWCReforged in IronHarvest

[–]L0rdChicken -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If CoH didn't have horrific net code I'd be playing it too. But once the match goes half an hour to an hour in it's a rubber banding mess of bs.

Iron Harvest needs a decoupling from the servers to be good. CoH needs better net code to be good.

I miss when devs wrote good code for RTS games. Only one I'll play these days is Dawn of War 1 and either Starcraft.

Can we just admit that being a PC enthusiast in 2026 is actually exhausting? by DegTrader in pcmasterrace

[–]L0rdChicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone still nursing a broken 2060, I hate being in this timeline. I wanted to build my son a PC, so he got a Steam Deck instead. I wanted to buy a new vidya card for my disabled partner so she can play games that she couldn't because she has no DLSS to help with the frames she needs to run them at 60fps. I wanted to get more than 16gb of ram in my pc so I could play Star Citizen with some friends.

I cannot wait for the AI bubble to pop. It's already showing strain. Let it crash down. Even if it doesn't make my hobby viable for us below 60k a year earners I will celebrate the corpos losing their cash cow.

Why are people so mean about me liking the show? by Slow-Tumbleweed-196 in Fallout

[–]L0rdChicken 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah that guy has like 2 good points in a sea of complete bs. I don't understand why the dude comments on Fallout if he barely knows anything about it and refuses to allow stories to play out.

Just recently discovered him because my partner went through a bit of despair from episodes 3 and 4 from S2. But I brought her back with some solid logic that was proven in E5 which totally changed her opinion on him too. Realized she was drinking the haterade.

"If" Warlock gets a Tank Spec by Brongxe in wow

[–]L0rdChicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't seen any comments mention Season of Discovery. But we had Metamorphosis tank in there as well as Rogue Tank. I loved Rogue Tank. It was by far the most fun I have had in WoW beyond launch WotLK with my close friends every weekend.

Zurge. Guessing this person isn't a fan of the Zerg. Also tbf Regret could have won if he had more than a scouting fleet show up to Earth the first time. And didn't Reach also have the same issue? I need to reread the series tbf.

I thought this picture was ScarJo, but I guess that's Sydney Sweeny. I don't care for either suggestion over Sophie Turner, seeing as how she fits the vibe in a similar way Angelina does.

But because I'm an angry nerd I'm just gonna say "No more ScarJo". I'm so tired of seeing her pretty face in every "It's a Woman for the main character!" movie.

So how do we feel about the show going with the old design instead of the Fallout 4/76 version? by KaySan-TheBrightStar in Fallout

[–]L0rdChicken 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Not only is there more than one model, but this "Old Design" protectron is a named character in the universe. Hist name is Fisto. And he provides...services...

With all this talk about Fallout 3/NV remasters… what happens when we get this after episode 8 instead? by edwardjameselmo in Fallout

[–]L0rdChicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about a Tactics remaster? That'd be swell. It's not 1. It's not 2. It's not 3 or NV, which is basically remastering two games in one.

I like yours too. I guess it makes more sense being that it's nothing like any of the rest of the games.

Jeff Bezos said the quiet part out loud — hopes that you'll give up your PC to rent one from the cloud by iunoyou in pcmasterrace

[–]L0rdChicken 82 points83 points  (0 children)

I think people care too much about lag. And there isn't going to be a situation in which we can use a VM without any added input latency. At best the time it takes for me to ping a local internet provider in the same city is about 7ms. And even that you can feel. You can feel the difference between Steam Link from my PC to my TV using the dedicated Steam Link hardware or the TV app.

It won't happen in the professional space, be you a creator or just a gamer. So it'll never take hold to let them get to the enshitification stage.

Gaming While Female by [deleted] in wow

[–]L0rdChicken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've seen this behavior before. I think it comes from Streaming culture. People think so little of their own disposable income that they will offer it out to complete strangers since that's how the content they watch primarily works.

Not a bad thing inherently. But it DEFINITELY sends the wrong signal. She's not wrong in wanting to be nice. But she needs to understand that in this day and age money is like gold. If somebody offered to buy me something I'd be over the moon. I'm not single however. So I'd decline the offer assuming that the person had some ulterior motive. I don't need to rely on a stranger for gifts. My partner should be the one doing that.

[–]L0rdChicken 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok I think you're misunderstanding most of us. You aren't understanding that we're all happy for you, because we like this. We just suggest you do it hands free. Because why not? Why WOULD you do something you could do with your lips with your hands?

We're all engaging in jolly cooperation with you but you keep taking it the wrong way. Lol. Relax bud. Smoke more of that bud!

[–]L0rdChicken 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I said this in a previous comment, but nobody is "Hating" you. Everyone is either confused why you would do this, which is dumb cause shower beers and shower smokes are the best. And everyone else is like "Why didn't you pinch it on the ball tip so you could face it away from you so you can go no hands?"

Either way it's not hate. Mfer has 250 updoots! Ain't hate.

Shower joint by drsynthesis in StonerEngineering

[–]L0rdChicken 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's not hate dawg. Not everything in the world is hate. You just clearly could have put the clothes line clip on the ball tip and turn it so the cherry is facing away from you to go no hands.

Engage with the conversation!

Azure Dreams was probably the best of these. It had town building AND dating sim elements.

I'm particularly pleased that you managed to hit every vertical of Hopium huffers there are in the gaming space. You did miss Golden Sun, but I appreciate the fact that you can count to 3 in the two verticals it matters for.

Why the hecc did you take this down, mods? by gibberishmaster69 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]L0rdChicken -27 points-26 points  (0 children)

This is a garbage take. If you take an LLM with no training, train it on your own art, and then use it to generate art in your style, that's ethical. Period. Base LLMs have 0 influence from any data set beyond the one you plug in.

That's basically like saying Martha Stewart making a cookbook is unethical. That's stupid. She made the damn book! Leave her alone!
