My attitude was: If I’m going to spend money on the digital deluxe edition of the game, I’m sure as hell going to get my money’s worth.

By admitting to the sunk cost fallacy, you’ve really only proven my point. You’re gonna find ways to defend the game more than you should, unconsciously or not.

I know it’s hard, but in this current era of live service games recording metrics beyond just purchased copies of the game, you should vote with your play time, regardless of how much you’ve already put into the game.

Tbh this is also the attitude of cod players who stuck around after the BO6 release. Warzone especially took a huge step backwards. 20 Hz server-side updates for a battle royale game is pretty sad

I don't have aphantasia but I still skip over descriptions. It just doesn't really add anything for me. Much more interested in dialogue and actions

Couldn’t resist… the gif suits nearly any situation

It’s this attitude that drives meme culture into the ground. Like no, memes arise because they convey a specific feeling in a specific context. You just want to use the same picture to respond to everything because you have no personality

I never used Pocket itself, but I do like having the grid of news articles on the new tab page, which I believe is powered by Pocket in some shape or form. Anyone know if that feature is going away too?

I used to have that problem with ln until I realized it’s essentially the same ordering as cp: source, then destination. The source being the existing file that you’re linking to, and the destination being the link that you’re creating

Fast food used to be cheap AND convenient. Now it’s just convenient. The fact that I can get a McDonalds meal from the drive thru for the same price as getting a pizza delivered… why would I leave my house

Sometimes I will be hangry but no particular food seems appetizing, if that makes sense. It’s like my body wants food but my brain doesn’t. Eating just seems like a chore sometimes but I can’t focus on anything if I skip it.

Definition of first world problems, I know

Video container types (.mkv, .mp4) are different from encoding types (x264, 265)

For both, the “best” or “better” is gonna depend on your use case. .mkv is nice because they bundle multiple video tracks, audio tracks, and subtitle tracks all into one file, but .mp4 is pretty much guaranteed to be playable on anything (although the number of devices that don’t support .mkv is pretty small at this point)

x265 is nice because the quality:file size ratio is much better than x264, but again, compatibility is an issue because x265 is still somewhat new, so older devices probably won’t support it.

As you can probably tell, I prefer .mkv + x265 whenever possible, but that’s only because every device I own can play them

I have a handful of self hosted sites on my LAN, only one has SSL enabled. On my iPhone, in Safari, I have a favorite for one of the non-SSL sites, but when I tap it, it brings me to the site that has SSL enabled. With how I have subdomains in nginx configured, this tells me that Safari is forcing HTTPS for the site, even though I’ve triple checked that the favorite starts with http://

Any suggestions for why this is happening? It only started happening a few months ago

EDIT: another weird detail I forgot to mention is that if I tap-hold the favorite, tap Copy, then Paste & Go in the address bar, it goes to the correct site

 

TorrentGalaxy's release group GalaxyRG265 used to be my go-to for movie releases because I thought they were the perfect balance of size and quality. However, they haven't put out anything since mid December.

Anyone know what happened? I know the site has had uptime issues recently, so maybe they're focusing on that instead?

 

Lifelong football enjoyer here, but I can no longer stomach the NFL anymore. I realize the league is, and has always been, an entertainment business but they don’t even bother hiding the massaging anymore. They’re clearly feeling threatened by the fact that college football is more interesting now with the CFP and transfer portal, so they’re desperate for dramatic narratives. wilL iT BE A ThREEPeAT? wILL keLCe PrOposE to tayLOR SWIfT? dID wE MEnTIon TAyLOR swIFT iS HEre?

Anyways, good thing I got into rugby recently cuz it’s Six Nations time

 

I had the 3-pack with the original football, baseball, and soccer PC games. Put countless hours into them as a kid, so I’m super excited for these rereleases

 

I've been hosting Alexandrite as my main web UI for Lemmy because Lemmy's own UI is a bit too basic for my tastes, but Alexandrite hasn't been updated in 7 months and is still missing features like setting a default comment sort type. Can anyone recommend an alternative with a similar look and feel? I use the "list" view on smaller resolutions and the "cards" view on my ultrawide

 

I get it, part of the fun of AI images is being able to make several images in a single stroke. But there are multiple ways to put those images in a single post, rather than making a post for each.

Looking at you, vintage food guy

 

It’s pretty crazy that romhacking dot net shuts down the same day I finish playing through my first retro mod, but that is in line with my usual luck…

Anyways, this mod for Banjo Kazooie is absolutely incredible. It’s Banjo Kazooie set in the world of Ocarina of Time. The levels were cleverly designed, the Easter eggs kept me smiling nonstop, and every song was an absolute tune.

If you are a fan of Banjo, Zelda, and Nintendo in general, this is a definite must-play. Guaranteed to warm your heart

 

I have a UVC capture card that I use to play my Switch. Currently, I utilize it via the full screen projector feature of OBS, but the Switch is 1080p while my monitor is 4k and the upscaling that OBS uses causes some noticeable artifacts.

I’m wondering if there’s an application with some configurable upscaling options that would make this experience better. I don’t need anything crazy that would cause noticeable input lag, but anything even slightly better than OBS would be welcome

 

I see there are several different ways to install OSRS on Linux - flatpaks, Android emulators, Steam, etc. - but can anyone recommend the best as far as ease of setup? With lack of glitches being the second priority?

I have an AMD GPU that is quite recent (<5 years)
