Trans-Exclusionary Ruledical Mold
  • I like how your pronouns are "equipped". Got you a pocket full of pronouns. DOn't you drop them, or nobody will be allowed to talk about you!

  • Game Informer shuts down after 33 years
  • You're joking, right? Pre-2012, it was one of the most visited sites on the internet and in the top 20 gaming sites. They weren't some no-name blog. Then after they hired Totilo, their shitty pop-tabloid reporting became so infamous even Forbes had articles about it, well before gamergate was ever a thing. This all used to be sourced info on the wiki page.

  • 'Star Trek: Prodigy' Season 3 Gets a Sobering Update From Its Creators
  • Trauma from torture can be overcome. A lingering connection to the Borg is lifelong.

  • Game Informer shuts down after 33 years
  • Nah, Kotaku had a shit reputation for years before gamergate got shat into existence. Their reporting was sloppy and often wrong, most of them sucked at the games they were reviewing, they spammed out vapid clickbait articles about nothing to farm ad rev. The only reason people respect them now is because they were positioned opposite gamergate, as if two things can't both suck.

  • Volt Recharge - Official Announcement Trailer
  • This is from a couple months back. Still excited, though.

  • [Overlord Gaming] Denuvo performance impact tested before and after DRM was removed.
  • The one that kills me is the PC release of Project Diva. Denuvo usually gets pulled after a year or so, because it's not a one-time purchase for the publisher, they charge a recurring license fee. But for some ungodly reason, SEGA's decided to keep paying to have it in a rhythm game. For two and a half years, you just... sometimes lose inputs or miss a note you should've hit, because Denuvo decided you're gonna stutter just there.

  • Could a policy Justin Trudeau rejected give the Liberals the bump they need?
  • TL;DR they think he should look at electoral reform again

    A huge wedge of the liberal voter base were disenfranchised when Trudeau promised electoral reform, practically guaranteed it, and then just announced they weren't going to do it but don't worry here's legal weed. Many of them were youth voting for the first time, and that betrayal set the tone. If he set it in motion before the election, is it possible they'd recapture at least some of that base? Sure. Would I vote for him? Not a chance.

  • AMD CEO Lisa Su reminisces about designing the PS3's infamous Cell processor during her time at IBM
  • Setting aside that the industry professionals definitely count it as current gen for sales metrics, that's fuckin, irrelevant when the statement is about all three of last gen, current gen, and next gen. Whichever one you want to call the Switch part of, it's the best selling console of that generation, so the statement that AMD sold chips the best selling console of that generation is false. Unless you want to make the claim the Switch is from 2006, they are incorrect.

  • AMD CEO Lisa Su reminisces about designing the PS3's infamous Cell processor during her time at IBM
  • How can the switch be a different console from last gen, current gen, and next gen? Those are literally the only generations it could be considered part of.

  • AMD CEO Lisa Su reminisces about designing the PS3's infamous Cell processor during her time at IBM
  • it's also a great win for AMD, in general, to provide the hardware behind the two biggest consoles on the market for two consecutive (and a third upcoming) console generations.

    Doesn't the Switch have as much market share as the other two combined?

  • What is skibidi and why is this word everywhere? [Serious]
  • They were popular gags that dominated the millennial YouTube landscape. I can't say they were American things since I'm not American and they were still popular here. Possible you just missed, the internet's big

  • What is skibidi and why is this word everywhere? [Serious]
  • The hate for skibidi toilet baffles me because it's literally the same shit we laughed at not even 20 years ago? Does nobody remember pingas and pootis? Fan flashes? It's crazy how fast people fall into "kids like it so it's bad"

  • [gameranx] This Video Game Trend is Killing Single Player Games (Live service model)
  • The "this video game trend" they're referring to is the live service model.

    Literally, they didn't have to make this clickbait, people will still watch "All the ways the live service model is damaging the single-player experience".

  • British passenger dies after severe turbulence on London-Singapore flight
  • Reading the article, it looks like there was barely any warning, because it was the type of turbulance that is extremely difficult to detect. Additionally, it seems the dead man had his seat belt on; he died of, as far as they can tell, a fear heart attack, as the plane essentially fell off a midair cliff, dropping 1800 meters (6000 feet) in three minutes. That's over 10 meters (30 feet) a second).

  • Proton Mail provided user data that led to an arrest in Spain
  • He got got because the user used an Apple ID that was linekd to their real identity, which is one of the things Proton is obligated to provide in cases like this.

    Proton says all the time, they are obligated to comply with the letter of the law, so do not store anything identifiable anywhere they're legally required to provide it. They tell you exactly what not to do, to avoid this precise case. They do not want to provide anything they don't have to, but they also do not want their company shut down.

  • What's stopping you from using Ecosia? Your searches could plant trees!
  • What's stopping me? The fact that they need me to generate ad revenue to fund those trees, and I'd rather not be advertised to.

  • Elon Musk’s Neuralink reports trouble with first human brain chip
  • No, I understood that, I did read the article. I'm lambasting the fact that in an article about "brain chip gone wrong", burying the "but human seems to be unharmed" at the end of an article is indicative of a set of priorities wildly different from my own.

  • Is outbound federation broken again?

    I noticed my posts on Lemmy.world stopped showing up to my account from that instance, and looking back, it seems like nothing I've posted for the last 4 days has federated.
