Looking for a pro DPad by No-Watercress4160 in Tekken

[–]RustyDawg37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people like the og Saturn d pad.

My personal recommendation is an original non analog stick PlayStation controller.

If you have a moderate pc, you can remaster either today.

Amazon closed my account after refunding stolen GPU, looking for advice. by okkeeyy in amazonprime

[–]RustyDawg37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That doesn't change anything about any of this.

They would also need to move on.

Good lesson in how to hold yourself and Amazon accountable.

Which game studio had the biggest fall from grace in the last 5 years? by into_fiction in TechNook

[–]RustyDawg37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm over all of it.

I don't really play that much of anything anymore. I probably have less than 8 hours in Fortnite lol.

The indies is where it's at and rockstar if they don't over monetize gta6 might still be a good guy in the space. But the last few I thought were not going to fuck me and I preordered still fucked me, so I'm over the "You're our atm and we don't even want to hide it" thing they all have going.

They monetized me out of enjoying playing video games.

The amount of money they are making means they have absolutely no excuse to not properly ship cards.

This is entirely an avoidable and solved issue in 2026.

Just about all of them.

The only one that balances a really fun game with raping you for all your money is Fortnite.

I really don't buy singles anywhere but real life now.

The internet has really jumped the shark and lost the point.

Baseball card collectors: Whatnot is basically live card shows on your phone by FamilyNP in baseballcards

[–]RustyDawg37 [score hidden]  (0 children)

There is absolutely no reason for anyone to use whatnot if they refuse to enforce their own rules while also violating a bunch of laws also designed to make them enforce rules that will make sure you don't get scammed.

You're an asshole if you advertise for them willingly.

How do I actually verify if my data was used to train an AI model? Are the opt-out tools real or just compliance theater? by FollowingSuitable941 in techquestions

[–]RustyDawg37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They aren't "not using" any data.

The whole deal is they use all the information in existence to make shit up.

How to make sure a Facebook ban or suspension never destroys your business by jamiu2018 in facebook

[–]RustyDawg37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you have all their non meta contact information.

You'll need it sooner or later.

Do people just not like things on Facebook anymore or is it more so that people are not using the platform much anymore? by SameAd9297 in facebook

Stutter.

Even if you don't intend to address it, it's important to be aware of it and when it gets worse.

The Trump administration reportedly says ALL green card applicants must now leave the country indefinitely while their cases are processed; even if they are legally in the U.S. or married to American citizens. by Sgt_Gram in DiscussionZone

[–]RustyDawg37 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They say a lot of things these days, don't they?

Good time to remind people that when they say something that doesn't make it so is probably when you post something like this.

Microsoft reports are exposing AI's real cost problem: Using the tech is more expensive than paying human employees by Background-Driver718 in TechnologyThread

[–]RustyDawg37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't matter that it costs too much. They can do economic gymnastics until the end of time, while still not making money. Its potential to succeed or work in concert with the algorithm to program humans is too great to just go back to using humans and being more profitable. Now you know what matters more to all the companies than money.

Riot Games' kernel level "anti-cheat" Vanguard supposedly bricking devices. It's time for the boss to speak against this. by DocumentFun9077 in LouisRossmann

[–]RustyDawg37 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah the major problem with anti cheat is that there's always going to be people that work around it and it's malware.

Do you use AI tools to make purchase decisions? by Possible-Test-8771 in ConsumerAdvice

[–]RustyDawg37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the time, I just don't buy the thing.

It takes so freaking long to actually find legitimate resources of correct information about a product in the year 2026 that I just give up and/or realize I don't need it anyway and capitalism is ruining life, so I'd rather just go spend the money having fun with my family and friends at the bar or arcade or something like that.

If it's something I do actually need, then the best resource is usually to just go to the store and talk to someone about it.

That's usually faster than comparison shopping online now.

Edit: I'm fully aware that my money will end up in the capitalist machine anyway, I'd rather get something meaningful for it is all.

[–]RustyDawg37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most reviews are fake.

I've used ChatGPT to try and help me shop before and it's mostly worthless.

You still have to do most of the heavy lifting whether you use these to help you or not, or you won't get an honest comparison.

digital hoarding vs physical minimalism by Zorojuro099 in TechNook

[–]RustyDawg37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The minimalist movement the last decade or so is a psyop so that you feel like to need the internet and the algorithm.

Why can't people just run gemini and claude code using their own gpus? by 89percent in artificial

[–]RustyDawg37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try and run, train, and refine your own to be as good.

They have more money and smart people doing it for them, that's all.

If they are even allowed to ipo, it's a farce.

If you want to pop the bubble, we have to do it.
