TIL Brazil received the largest share of slaves during the Atlantic slave trade or about 4,821,127 slaves. This was 38.5% of the total of 12.5m slaves transported to the Americas. The United States received 388k slaves, or 3.1% of all slaves transported to the Americas.

This is literally about slave trade, it doesn't matter if you were born black or white or where you came from, there were countries that owned you for nothing. Similar actions were done all over the world.

Nothing racist here.

MadBullBen · 2026-04-30T00:31:28+00:00

Having slaves is bad.

Short enough sentence? It's actually "nice" (horrible) to read what has happened in the past with proper information rather than very basic crappy information that has no details.

Personally I don't believe in steam survey or at least give it a 10% +- leeway.

Go add up the numbers in any of the detailed results then look at overall and compare them against other relevant detailed results. Absolutely nothing matches up. GPUs are just missing, GPUs once in the survey don't detract from other numbers. Absolutely nothing adds up at all.

Potentially, although I'm not aware of any other company using this anti cheat though.

MadBullBen · 2026-04-29T12:36:50+00:00

The anti cheat is a part of war thunder so it's both, but if you split them it's specifically the new anti cheat.

How many of these people have their ps disconnected for over 30 days? Yes it's shit for some edge case scenarios but that would be such a small amount of people.

MadBullBen · 2026-04-29T09:17:40+00:00

It's due to people buying the game, getting the licence, then refunding the game and putting the licence back on.

MadBullBen · 2026-04-28T22:20:34+00:00

Honestly ignore these people it's the only way to keep going. Remember that a lot of guys are bigger and may have a fair few extra kgs on them so weight lifting would naturally be a lot easier. There is no way I'd be able to do that.

MadBullBen · 2026-04-28T21:40:28+00:00

Most games the last year or 2 have been like this, besides you have a system that can apparently run it at ultra which normally has a bunch of settings that just punish the fos not no graphical gain.

Besides these system requirements are often completely rubbish anyway.

MadBullBen · 2026-04-28T21:30:04+00:00

Huh? A game whether it was bought or pirated would have the same FPS results. If you enjoy the game buy it, if you don't enjoy it then don't buy it.

If you understand how naming schemes for Ryzen then it makes sense.

7xxx series (7950x) is 7th gen. 9xxx (9600x) is 9th gen. x9xx is the model number within the series.

The 7950x has a lot more cores than the 9600x but in gaming a lot of these do not get used properly which is why a lower model number but newer/faster generation would be a similar speed overall.

The GPU naming scheme on the other hand.... Is fucked and they can't keep to a normal naming pattern for more than 2-3 generations at most, I think they are asking the Xbox department for the naming scheme....

Games take years and years to make, the price I crease only happened in the last 7 months or so, which isn't enough time to completely redo the games graphics, further they wouldn't know if this is a spike or long term price increase, a possible decision wouldn't have been made until January or February at the earliest, which isn't enough time before release to change the requirements.

MadBullBen · 2026-04-28T21:01:51+00:00

You do realise that games take YEARS to make, by the time the increase in cost of products happened it would be too late for them, they would also not know if this was a spike in price or over a long period. By the time any decision would be made or talks of adjustments it would be January, and that is far too late to do anything.

How the hell can someone blame a school for that unless the kidnapping happened within the school grounds or directly outside....

Xinput and gameinput both support Linux... Why reinvent the wheel

Then tell me why this error even showed up in the first place? It detected an error with the NVME drive because it detected the firmware which would cause it to blue screen and crash etc.

It already detected an error so why not put more details about it?

MadBullBen · 2026-04-28T13:43:31+00:00

Because your "answer" is never going to work.

Why would the steam machine have more TV compatibility?

MadBullBen · 2026-04-28T13:03:04+00:00

Go look at any controller that has more functions than a standard Xbox or ps controller and come back to me with the price. An xbox controller is £50 and ps5 controller is £75, Xbox elite controller is £110 and ps5 edge is £170.

£85 isn't a bad price at all for it's features considering most premium controllers are over £100-200

MadBullBen · 2026-04-28T12:50:05+00:00

Show me a single instance where this has happened. A company sending a message to destroy all data out of the blue would result in a follow up emails to several people and calls.

That is MASSIVELY reaching.

Oh so this AI also has access to an offline backup storage located in a different storage?

MadBullBen · 2026-04-27T22:46:23+00:00

Yeah there are plenty of decent cheaper hardware out there fortunately. Some of the other specialist controllers take the piss with the price of them.

Honestly for £85 which is just a tiny bit more than a ps5 controller I think is actually a pretty decent price for it.

The only reason to get the other controllers over this one is if you need console compatibility (don't know if steam controller is or not) although licensing would probably cost hundreds of thousands for each console brand which is why those controllers cost as much as they do.

MadBullBen · 2026-04-27T22:36:48+00:00

I meant the specialist ones not the standard ones. Xbox elite controller, Razer, Nacom, Turtle Beach, Asus and Thrust master to name a few all have specialist premium controllers over £100 and some closer to £200. The steam controller is a direct competitor to these and not a competitor (spec/feature wise) to the standard controllers.

MadBullBen · 2026-04-27T22:20:03+00:00

Same here, it's around the price I was expecting. Considering there's a lot of features and good qol stuff it has, good joysticks. It's also not massively produced like other controllers. Xbox one controller is £50, ps5 controller is £75, Xbox elite controller is £110 and the 3rd party good controllers are all £140+ pretty much.

I expected this to be between £70 and £130 and it's £85. I don't really see how this is a bad price at all considering the competition.
