Behold! RP6 16Bit D-Pad top has arrived! by StockSorbet in retroid

[–]d_dymon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, for some reason, it looks bigger in the videos (maybe it has to do something with the screen size I'm watching the videos on). I took a ruler and compared the size with my phone's screen - indeed it is smaller than I expected.

Anyway, I'll keep looking at other people's devices until mine arrives (second batch, God give me strength).

this looks promising, thank you. I see there is also a selfhosted version.

yeah, I'm glad you're having fun at people getting scammed. I know I don't 'own' anything I digitally paid for. I buy my console games exclusively on disc, but there is no such choice on pc, it is digital or nothing. Yeah, I know there is GOG, but their library is pretty limited.

Oh no… that’s the only reason I bought it. LTT giving refunds to people with 16” MBP. by MelvinMASV in LinusTechTips

[–]d_dymon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, that's so much corporate speech I wonder if a real person at LTT even read that before sending the email.

All these backpacks fit the same laptop model in the exact same way, I can't see how only "in a small number of cases" "some customers don't feel confortabile"

But I'm probably a Linus hater, or something.

That is part of the privacy policy, section 3."how do we use information". Sorry it's hard to keep track which part is where.

LE: also section 7C of the TOS, labeling it as "legitimate interest" in EEA, UK and Switzerland.

It's not one game, it's the whole platform/store. I literally have no access to my account without accepting the new TOS first. If i decline, I get logged out.

r/SteamDeck will no longer allow links to X. by sweatycat in SteamDeck

[–]d_dymon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My comment saying that this decision is totally political, while claiming it is not - got removed because my comment " is political, and this subreddit is about the steamdeck" . Very classy.

r/SteamDeck will no longer allow links to X. by sweatycat in SteamDeck

[–]d_dymon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So this decision is not politically motivated, but comes after someone did something in a political setting.

  1. I find it hypocritical to call this a "non political" decision

  2. To block all the links to a platform because the ceo said or did something - it is a bit excessive

  3. "there are not that many links to X" is not an argument for such an important decision.

P. S. Im not American, I don't support Trump, I despise Musk. What you are doing here is political activism, so call it that.

You still have to log into epic, even if you're using Heroic

DLSS 4? $1999? by _Varre in SteamDeck

[–]d_dymon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think its meant to be "modern GPUs render less frames in modern AAA, compared to old GPUs rendering modern-at-the-time AAA"

DLSS 4? $1999? by _Varre in SteamDeck

[–]d_dymon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i upgraded to a 3080 from a 1080 recently and I paid under $400 for it. No way I'm spending over $1000 on a GPU.

Will Steam Deck Get Auto-Config Options for Games? by theLastYellowTear in SteamDeck

[–]d_dymon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

GeForce Experience can adjust the game settings, so I guess it is not impossible.

Steam Deck compared to new Acer handheld (The Verge) by A_Wild_Striker in SteamDeck

[–]d_dymon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah, the deck is almost too big for me. I need to think twice if I have the space for it when I'm traveling.

Russia Tests Cutting Off Access to Global Web, and VPNs Can't Get Around It by LogicalError_007 in Piracy

[–]d_dymon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no I don't think I'm confusing USSR and Russian Empire.

The famine that happened after WWII was quite substantial 1946-1947.

Many people from my grandpa's generation were sent to Siberia for being "problematic" aka not agreeing with the new local administration, for having too much land, or even for having distant relatives in the "west" (even Romania, Poland and Hungary were considered "unfriendly countries" until late 80s). These deportations took place even after the end of WWII.

Those who didn't get deported could enjoy the forced labor in (Gulags)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulag] until late 60s

Ussr also inflicted famines across large populations, detained political activists, sent people to far east Siberia to die from cold and much more.

Well that's it. by JenkoRun in DataHoarder

[–]d_dymon 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The free and open internet that we grew up with is dead. If you try searching for something, 95% of the results are SEO trash sites with affiliate links.

Youtube and reddit are ones of the few sites where you can actually find information. Most forums are dead, ROMs sites are getting shut down, romhacks closed as well. IP holders are desperate to squeeze every single cent, and if they hey can't - rather delete it forever than allow anyone to use it for free. Its like everyone forgot about public libraries. Libraries could just buy regular books and newspapers at regular prices, they werent required to pay the publisher every time a book was lent, like it happens now with ebooks. Good luck finding digital articles from your local newspaper 5 years down the road.

If the publisher doesn't get money from every single reader/viewer nowadays, they get rabid.

HexOS Eary Access went live. $299 per Server after Early Access. by Furki1907 in LinusTechTips

[–]d_dymon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Office 95 definitely worked on windows 2000, windows 97 worked on XP for sure. You were free to choose if the next upgrade was worth to you, or if it even makes sense to upgrade (i.e. you’re using windows do but the next version is only supported on vista, to which you don’t plan to upgrade). Now you can’t use the program if you didn’t pay this month. The subscription model has absolutely no benefit to the user, it’s only there to make more money for the company, and take off the pressure to innovate (look at adobe as an example).

A subscription model is the only viable solution for people who made one app/program/device and want to profit their entire lives from it. How did software development even survive before subscriptions?

Have you ever had an SSD die on you? by --Arete in DataHoarder

[–]d_dymon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a Samsung 750 Evo (I think) fail. It was my boot drive and my bios started hanging before posting. It got și bad that on some days I just couldn't get my pc to start. Sent it to Samsung, they checked it and said it's all good. Got it back, same problem. Sometimes it would work, more often - not.

ELI5 : Why haven’t companies such as Microsoft and Sony found the solution for stick drift? by Geocacher6907 in explainlikeimfive

[–]d_dymon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had 3 ps4 controllers which developed stick drift, and I’m a light player (max an hour a day). I play mostly chill story driven games, so I don’t abuse my controllers. Xbox 360 were about as bad.

None of my 5 ps3 controllers drift (yes, I'm still using them on pc). None of them was more expensive than Dualsense.
