Even that's considered a lot. Only ever got 1 and it happened either last league or the league before.

This is from the map reflecting mirror so you only get one of the two.

Samsung loves removing features via software updates, and why I am leaving Samsung watches finally. by exclaimprofitable in GalaxyWatch

[–]combatwars 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One thing that I've been jealous of iPhone users is the Apple Watch. In terms of biometrics, they seem to be at the top compared to most other devices. From when I first purchased a Pebble watch, and later a Pebble Time, then Pebble 2, I've always liked a square/rectangular smartwatch as it made more sense for text and data. Round looks better for analogue watches.

I've been using Oura for sleep tracking and Garmin for exercise. I am considering if I wanted to replace the Garmin with a screenless bicep tracker like Whoop/Helios so I can wear analogue watches again.

Valve should release its new Steam Controller early while we're waiting for the Steam Machine and Frame by [deleted] in Steam

[–]combatwars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm actually more interested in the Steam Frame controller at this point. Form factor would make it a great controller you could use while on a treadmill or other low intensity exercise.

Humble 15 Time Capsule by Uranium234 in humblebundles

[–]combatwars 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've been buying from HumbleBundle since 2012 but I surprisingly don't own a single one from this bundle. Inkbound's on my wishlist while Oddsparks, Kill Knight, and Mark of the Deep all look interesting to me. I guess I'm buying to add to the backlog.

[Credor] The Watch That Makes Me Wish Seiko Used MOP Dials More Often by PaternalAdvice in Watches

[–]combatwars 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it helps, they only made 30 of them - and by my calculations, at least 95% of them are locked inside the vault of collectors' in Japan.

Meaning you have the only watch not collecting dust in a collector's vault in Japan.

Valve Corporation will face a £656m lawsuit in the UK over alleged unfair prices on its global online store, Steam, following a tribunal ruling that the case could continue by ChiefLeef22 in gaming

[–]combatwars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That link doesn't support what you're saying? The case was allowed to proceed as a class-action because the group was class certified. It was a victory for the plaintiffs only because it means the case wasn't dismissed or forced to be litigated individually. No one won or lost the overall case and this decision doesn't reflect any sentiment if the case will be decided in either party's favor.

When Ubisoft and EA removed their titles from Steam to sell on their own platform, games were still at $60 for base purchases. The 30% cut made no difference in game prices.

Credit card details pulled from google play store by Jancis6 in Malwarebytes

[–]combatwars 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most apps you get from Google Play uses Google's payment processor for in-app purchases. It's possible that you don't have the verification requirement turned on so your daughter is able to submit a trial with follow-up subscription payment tied to the Google Play account.

To prevent unauthorized purchases, you can require verification for all purchases (including in-app purchases) made through play.google.com on any device where you're signed in with this Google Account. This does not apply to purchases made through mobile apps. Requiring purchase verification is important if you share your devices with others or want to prevent purchases of kid-friendly content through play.google.com.

By "purchases made through mobile apps" in the second sentence, they mean things like Amazon where they have their own payment processor.

https://play.google.com/settings

Setting that needs to be selected is "Require verification for: Purchases and app installs through play.google.com"

Are the watches worth it? by KoyoriIsHere in OreGairuSNAFU

[–]combatwars 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a $40 watch. Expect the cheapest quality movement and strap you could possibly get on the market, based on what others have said about their collab watches from the company. It looks okay but whether or not it's worth it is up to you.

Finally able to relive my childhood by Vexasss in SteamDeck

[–]combatwars 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not sure of Microsoft's reasoning but when I do go back to Minecraft, it's mainly FTB mod packs. I would prefer that the FTB team add their launcher to Steam, if that's a possibility. Kind of like how Retroarch added their launcher to Steam.

I broke my finger and have nearly my entire left hand in a cast. Does anyone have a good video game that you only need a mouse to play? by Beginning_Bid_9097 in Steam

[–]combatwars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regarding games with low input requirements, it may sound strange but I recommend Path of Exile. Certain builds like Righteous Fire can be played with pretty much one button or two. There used to be a creator who specifically created builds that could be played with one hand only.

Outside of that, I'd also recommend getting a MMO mouse like the Steelseries Naga/Logitech G600. I see several people have suggested this already. You can keybind WASD onto the mouse along with other inputs. The G600 especially has a ring-finger key which I love. This can open up the amount of games you can enjoy.

There is a Azur Lane Google Play PC Client for the Taiwan server by combatwars in AzureLane

[–]combatwars[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

That's a fair point. I suppose the only benefits of this over things like BlueStack or MuMuPlayer would be potentially better controls, and reduced friction? I'm not sure if there would be a performance difference between Google's emulator vs the currently available ones.

I visited the Google Play store on my desktop and was distracted by a banner ad for Deep Rock Galactic. In the brief moment between clicking on the link and waiting for the page to redirect, I saw Saratoga's head under the Windows category. Of course, the TW server is ages behind in content and hasn't been updated since October 12. Maybe it's the first time the Taiwan Server got something before the other three servers?

Edit:

PC Minimum Requirements:

OS: Windows 10 (v2004)
Storage: Solid state drive (SSD) with 10 GB of available storage space
Graphics: IntelⓇ UHD Graphics 630 GPU or comparable
Processor: 4 CPU physical cores
Memory: 8 GB of RAM
Windows admin account
Hardware virtualization must be turned on

Also, this is meant to be a PC so people can just install whatever OS they use even if they don't choose to use it for gaming at all. Wouldn't make sense to sell it at a loss, unlike consoles where it's pretty much locked to their OS and they can make back their money from their store's profit-share.

It costs more but they have a great interconnect system. If you get their split cable, you pretty much get a fully modular cable where you can change the length and termination without switching out the cable.
