is it just me, or is every resource like "stop being lazy and organize! but don't work with the legacy orgs, they are feckless! Organize!". I want to to do more action but i have no clue where to begin and this message does not help me. i have social anxiety, i'm not going to go stand on a corner by myself protesting and hoping strangers join me.

don't be ridiculous, it was obviously immigrants that did it. All of them. They all went to one big Zoom call to coordinate it.

right there with you. but seeing them scrambling after being so smug about their overpriced product has been nice.

MN here. "Minnesota Nice" is a term used here to refer to passive-aggressive niceness and our collective inability to face conflict head on. Many MN Nice moms might bake cookies for a friend after a cancer diagnosis, but then still vote for the Republicans that are slashing funding for cancer research. The disconnect between pretty manners and ugly politics is very stark. Huge political divide between the Twin Cites/Duluth and the rest of the state.

hell yeah! I've been meaning to do this same thing with my partner, go through UFO50 overall because there's a surprising number of co-op experiences.

surprised that there's nothing about self-defense courses, but this is teen vogue

I think it would be hard to find a NUC that costs the same or less and still performs the same as the Steam Deck. You could maybe get there with a custom-built SFFPC, but it would be tricky.

i think we're getting there. The new ASUS ROG Ally is shipping with Steam OS and official Steam OS support, and I think this is just the beginning. If this partnership goes smoothly, I think Valve will open up the floodgates to other manufacturers doing similar stuff. And I think this will include a new wave of "Steam Machines".

LTT deliberately fucked over a small boutique water cooling shop. They had a host if other fuckery that needed to be exposed. Why would GN chill out when LTT was doing stuff that directly opposed GN's pro-consumer and pro-small business values?

What drama has GN stirred up that wasn't warranted?

TL;DW: At 4K, the RTX 5090 hits 20-50% uplifts in raster as compared to the RTX 4090, and 27-35% uplifts in RT as compared to the RTX 4090. Power efficiency is roughly equivalent to the 4090. The new dual flowthrough cooler design seems to perform exactly as advertised, providing remarkable cooling for a card that is only two slots thick.

Ah sweet, so it's only 99% fucked! Now I can go back to sharing misleading news stories in peace.

An indie dev's response to NYT's "Games Can’t Afford To Look This Good" and the meme of "I want smaller games with less graphics and I'm not kidding".
