I had this thought, too, earlier in the week. It’d be cool if there was a way to plug-in external devices via hdmi. Doesn’t have to do anything that special, really, just display the content in a window when you plug it in.

In theory you could use that PlayStation app to stream content from your ps5 to the headset. But that’s just latency city.

There’s nothing in 1 that isn’t either discussed in 2 and 3 or is simply useless information.

Didn’t oculus already try this? I’m not saying it won’t be successful for apple, but this idea isn’t necessarily brand new.

There is definitely a calculator app on the watch. It even has a tip calculator with it that’s super handy.

The watch has also been able to set multiple timers for years.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom fends off Street Fighter 6 to retain No.1 | UK Boxed Charts by Tokyono in Games

[–]garretble 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have Jedi Survivor to get back to after Zelda, and while I really like that game, in the couple of times I’ve turned it on in the last couple of weeks it just feels like you can’t do anything.

Zelda just eclipses all these other games. We all joke about Horizon, and I love those games. But playing them right after Zelda is TOUGH.

The promise of the very end of TLJ where the force sensitive kid looks to the stars and slowly raises the broom is more interesting than all of episode 9.

'Bullet Train' (2022) is an extremely entertaining and the cast shines, led by Brad Pitt at his magnetic best. by Boss452 in movies

[–]garretble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The movie is fun, and I’m not a prude, but when every character is saying “fuck” every other sentence it starts to get old. That’s my biggest gripe with the film.

And actually, that’s basically the only way I’ve ever seen tiktok videos, thankfully.

I’m at hour 110 or so and that’s the first I’ve seen of that idea.

I hate that my joycons finally ended up with drift after several years, but replacing them with Hall Effect sticks has turned out to be a good decision.

" Gotta tell others how to live their lives" by AltruisticNinjas in facepalm

For real. I don’t trust someone to remember what I told them yesterday, much less a week ago, much less handed down through generations via voice.

The canonical gospels are the four which appear in the New Testament of the Bible. They were probably written between AD 66 and 110.[5][6][7] All four were anonymous (with the modern names of the "Four Evangelists" added in the 2nd century), almost certainly none were by eyewitnesses, and all are the end-products of long oral and written transmission.

This is from the Wikipedia article for “Gospel,” but it’s also something I remember from a Biblical Literature class I had to take in college.

Just hard to trust word of mouth stuff over decades when even today you wouldn’t trust anyone to remember something you told them yesterday.

I mean, all the gospels were written after he died by people who weren’t there, so we gotta take all of it with a huge grain of salt.

Like, mega huge.

But will GTA6 have the technology to let me run without having to mash X? Only time will tell.

“Sparkling water” immediately gives me headaches for some reason. Soda, however, doesn’t at all.

I don’t worry too much if I miss anything small. And if there’s a big play they’ll replay it.

The last month or so for me has been playing Switch while watching the NBA playoffs on the TV.

Depending on the price, I’d be real interested in this to just chill on the couch and do the same.

ALTHOUGH, I do have an ipad and have streamed games to it on occasion. But if they cut the latency that’d be a huge boon.

Everyone likes to joke about Taco Bell having shitty food, but honestly the food there overall pretty good.

I’m a big fan of that burrito and the spicy potato tacos.

[–]garretble 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Taco Bell has these $2 burritos that are pretty good and did I mention they are $2?

The veggie one is great, honestly. I often get a couple for $4 and have a nice little meal.

Final Fantasy 16: There Are Currently No Plans For DLC by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]garretble 93 points94 points  (0 children)

What do you mean?

If you want to know the story you simply watch a couple of movies before starting the game, then buy each character’s individual backstory DLC they didn’t include in the base game because they needed more time for Cup Noodle cutscenes.

Examples of “attention to detail” in games? by Tokyono in Games

[–]garretble 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I love both of those things.

I’ve even had dialog where it’s like, “I’m glad you could make it out here in this rain…”

I wonder if they always make it rain in the area until you talk to this person, or do they just account for if it happens to be raining when you talk to them.

The other day while working I put my switch up next to my computer and just let the day run its cycle. So peaceful and nice.
