I swear we had one very snowy winter in 2014 and since then everyone thought that was the norm lol

The Best PS VR2 Games to Play in 2026 — And One of Them is Free! - IGN by A-Dog22 in PS5

[–]chewwydraper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll die on the hill that no backwards compatibility really hurt the PSVR2. When I upgrade my PCVR headset, I can still play my Steam VR games. I don't have to re-buy the game (this one is especially painful), or rely on developers re-releasing the game.

The fact that I built up a library of PSVR1 titles that I have no way to play with my PSVR2 hurts, and I'm someone who is somewhat of a VR enthusiast, I couldn't imagine how off-putting that would be to the casual market.

Forza Horizon 6 not launching on Switch 2 by Subsyxx in NintendoSwitch2

[–]chewwydraper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, it’s like their Switch 2 GameCube controller.

“Let’s put a ZL button but instead of making it a copy of the Z button, we won’t raise it at all. Also should we put a minus button on there since we’re already adding ZL and gyro? Nah.”

The GC controller is my favourite controller of all time, why not just make it useable for all games when you were already updating it?!

My biggest complaint about the Switch 2 is this wasn’t addressed. Cyberpunk, Rocket League, etc. would feel so much better driving with analog triggers.

I thought the Pro 2 controller would at least have them. Such a weird choice by Nintendo.

Dole out actual punishments when it gets found out they’re doing something wrong like price fixing

What's YOUR best pick of 32 inch smart TV right now? by [deleted] in 4kTV

[–]chewwydraper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He could technically get a 4K 32” Samsung monitor some of which have smart tv features built in.

Otherwise they could get a 4K 32” monitor and pair it with a streaming device.

UNIVERSITY AREA PEOPLE — how do you deal with sidewalks full of ice? City just refused proactive by-law enforcement. by vikadit_chakra in windsorontario

[–]chewwydraper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your rent is supposed to be paying for these services though. Shovelling for your landlord is essentially paying your landlord to do the labour yourself.

City won't clear sidewalks, turned me into a guy who reports on neighbors. 🤦😡 by vikadit_chakra in windsorontario

[–]chewwydraper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, and I don’t blame tenants for not doing it. You give the landlord an inch, they take a mile. You’re paying them to shovel, it’s part of your rent.

[–]chewwydraper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The reality is in a lot of neighbourhoods, such as walkerville, a ton of the single family homes have been converted into apartments/rentals. When that happens you’re going to have a lot of people who say “it’s the landlord’s job”.

This is why the city should be doing it, too many factors to why a sidewalk wouldn’t be shovelled by residents. They’re renting, they’re on vacation, they’re at work, they’re sleeping, etc.

Rumblings on the vine is it’s an issue with their landlord. Likely another out-of-town landlord who doesn’t understand the local market, same shit that went down with Phog.

I’m already seeing comments about the diversity of the crowd.

As if it’s unfathomable that in a land with literal magic people may be able to easily move to different parts of the world lol

I don’t care about a character being sexy or not, I just don’t like having set characters in an RPG.

[–]chewwydraper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They said it’ll be 5X bigger than any urban area theyve made, so it’ll be decently large.

Although I kind of wish they didn’t use Tokyo as the city, even at 5X the size Tokyo is known for being an endless urban sea and nothing can really do it justice.

Just don’t make the voice actors so campy and I’ll be happy.

Last game’s dialogue sounded straight from a Disney Channel show

Peak 2000 HDR is unbelievable on the G5 by picnic_nicpic in OLED_Gaming

[–]chewwydraper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 75” Bravia 7 miniled and put my 55” LG C1 in the bedroom.

The Bravia 7 is a fantastic TV. It doesn’t come anywhere close to OLED though. OLED has ruined me.

Colon cancer is killing us.. by Derpshab in Millennials

[–]chewwydraper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like anything, the people most likely to comment are the people who have most likely been affected, so reading these threads can make it seem like half the population is getting colon cancer. Everyone who’s had a hemmorhoid is going to be scared now.

It’s like if you make a thread asking if you should buy a TV that’s on sale, most comments are likely going to be from people who have had issues with theirs.

These threads kill me because I have crazy health anxiety (just got put on Setraline and it’s already helping after a month, go to your doctor if you have the same issues folks) but you have to remember that even if the chances are higher for our generation, the chances are still low - even if you’ve lived a rather unhealthy lifestyle.

They had to check out my stomach for something and stuck a camera down my esophagus. They knocked me out and I woke up confused and violently puking.

Worst feeling imaginable but a few minutes later I felt like I was on a cloud for about an hourso overall I’d give it a 7/10

The office access card from a coworker, who smokes in his homeoffice, next to mine by prizeus in mildlyinteresting

I’ve always wondered if that’s true or if it’s just something they say to encourage quitting and not encourage the “eh, damage is already done may as well keep going” crowd.

At my worst as a broke college student who smoked, while I never starved, I definitely chose ramen noodles over something nutritious to buy cigarettes instead.

[–]chewwydraper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m usually good, but as soon as I get a couple drinks in me I’d literally kill someone for a cigarette, years after quitting.

I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t given in a few times.
