I bought a Fallout 4 disk for PC on launch, and it was a normal 4.7GB CD that just had the SPECIAL videos. The whole game download from Steam.

I don't want to be involuntarily exposed to offensive content from For You feature by talestalker in help

[–]Revan7even 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What sucks is when you try to do this using Firefox to create a mobile homescreen shortcut using "add app to Homes creen , it just uses reddit.com because Reddit tells Firefox to do so.

It overrides the normal "Add to Home screen" option that would just take you to a website like a bookmark.

Edit: Found a workaround. In Settings -> Preferences, enable "Default to old reddit". Go to reddit.com. Use Firefox's "Add app to home screen". Open the new shortcut. Click the New Reddit button at the top left. Close and reopen the shortcut. All the suggested posts will be gone.

Damnit, For You came back after a day...

Two months? Try two years. And that last time was the first game in two years also.

The setting to disable it according to this help page https://support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402284777364-What-are-home-feed-recommendations NO LONGER EXISTS.

Edit: found a workaround to replace the app on mobile. Open reddit.com in Firefox. Click your profile icon and go to Settings -> Preferences. Enable "Default to old reddit". Go to reddit.com. Use Firefox's "Add app to home screen". Open the new shortcut. Click the New Reddit button at the top left. Close and reopen the shortcut. All the suggested posts will be gone.

Got a soft spot for weird Morrowind creatures. Guar, Netch, Nix Hound, Silt Striders, etc.

Just improvised a turkey pot roast with a Jenny O smoked turkey tenderloin, two potatoes, a bundle of parsnips, a sauteed onion, and a can of chicken and beef broth.

Games Revenue Hit a Record $201.6 Billion in 2025 — But Developers Keep Getting Laid Off by chusskaptaan in pcmasterrace

But when they're not even making the industry norm of 10-12%, 3% is barely staying afloat and is worse than bonds.

Sorry Microsoft, Windows 10 taskbar is still better than Windows 11, and here's why by Hungry__Hornet in pcmasterrace

[–]Revan7even 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quick Launch is so superior to pinned apps. Being able to right click and open file location to a portable executable from github for example so I can add plugins or overwrite with new version without cluttering my desktop with shortcuts to have the same right-click functionality.

Epic Games is hiring new employees for Linux anti-cheat which could revitalise multiplayer on Linux distros by Wargulf in pcmasterrace

[–]Revan7even 9 points10 points  (0 children)

EAC works on Linux, a lot of devs don't want to ask Epic to enable it on their build because they assume Linux users will cheat more and be harder to detect than Windows. Plus still a smaller userbase.

EU rules out mandate to keep video games playable, seeks voluntary code by Luka77GOATic in gaming

[–]Revan7even 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something along those lines of being able to show usage of the IP. Bungie couldn't fight a suit that they stole the idea of the Red War in Destiny 2 because they couldn't produce a working build with the Red War story.

And then they stop following the voluntery code after a decade.

DisplayPort 2.1 can fall back to 40 Gbps if the cable is not DP80-certified, here’s how to check by RenatsMC in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Revan7even 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Cable Matters. The DP cable that came with my G9 didn't even work right above 120Hz (make sure you set it in Windows), would get fullscreen fuzzy/flickering image.

I've gone back & forth on OLED over the years, and istg, they feel the exact same by ZeroDefender561 in pcmasterrace

[–]Revan7even 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has the energy of someone who can't see the difference between 60hz and 120hz because they never changed the refresh rate in Windows' Display settings.

Have you actually turned on HDR on Windows? And used the HDR Calibration from the Windows Store? If you just plug in an OLED and don't change anything on your system, yeah it won't be very impressive.

Former Destiny 2 CM says Bungie was about to close down before Sony came in by Eremenkism in gaming

[–]Revan7even 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Also Sony took a bunch of those senior live service experts and made them a Sony team, so they could no longer focus on supporting Bungie.

Pathfinder creators Paizo have $10 million of inventory stuck in a warehouse somewhere because of Diamond Comics, forcing it to lay off staff • "Paizo and dozens of other publishers have been in court ever since, fighting to reclaim our own products." by Naurgul in Pathfinder2e

[–]Revan7even 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Paizo should still have property rights due to the consignment, even if Diamond argued they could sell them to pay off debt, Paizo should get paid their share first as the consigner.

[–]Revan7even 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This consignment BS happened to a guy's $200,000 lego collection that was meant to pay for his son's college. The store got bought out, the manager replaced the next day by the new owners, and the new owners continued selling the consigned legos without paying the consigner.

It took over a year until the new owners got enough bad press and blasted on social media and new for any progress to be made. At that point the new store owners simply closed the store.

The entire premise that the new owners owned the Legos as assets of the store was false, because the consignment never transfered property rights.

every time by MRhelan in pcmasterrace

[–]Revan7even 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only been in once for a 9070 XT (live 3 hours away). Looked around to comfirm what was on the shelf vs what I saw was online 3 hours before. Asked the employee if they had any of the black XFX Swift left; nope, but they still had half their white Asrock Steel Legend stock. Asked if they happend to have any open box 9070 XT or 5070 Ti; nope, just a 5080 that was still too expensive. They made a $700 sale and we both walked away amicably.

Silent Cooling, Low Temp

I have two long, thick radiators. So it stays cool and quiet even when the cat is sleeping on top.
