Well now there should be plenty for them to buy on the black market if they don’t want their own ;p

on Xbox lays off 268 more employees, merges Obsidian into Bethesda and puts Activision in charge of Halo in c/games@lemmy.world · 1d ago
Bethesda should’ve been merged with obsidian, in my mind that name has way more prestige than Bethesda nowadays

Other than chatting with friends, that sounds like a nightmare. I’d rather be just doing the job that I enjoy and doing it well.

It’s worse than Google search was pre 2020 and has subsequently also made Google search itself the worst it’s ever been

But they charge for their “services” and if it was ultimately a net positive I’d be rallying alongside you, but they just suck and have made everything else they touch also suck.

on Wiki Documents at Least 44 Instances in Which Sony Says You Own Your Games in c/games@lemmy.world · 14 Sep 2026
If you “own” stuff on such an amount though, one would argue that is the consent to keep at least enough data to be able to log in to access “bought” goods and services.

on Do analog triggers matter all that much? (In general and aside from racing games) in c/games@lemmy.world · 6 Sep 2026
GTA and Gran Turismo (and most racing games on the PS2) used the pressure sensitivity on the face buttons. The DualShock 3 was the last controller to use them. I don’t think it was used much on the PS3, so they removed them for the PS4.

It’s the same lead designer. I thought the reception to the changes done to musescore was positive. Wasn’t it archaic as shit before?

on DLSS 5 comes with a massive 50-60% performance hit, so I hope you like lower frame rates with your dose of AI image enhancement in c/games@lemmy.world · 3 Sep 2026
I don’t think DLSS5 can work well with low poly/quality models and textures. Look up footage of it being used on San Andreas, it looks awful, even moreso than usual.

I might have to properly spend some time to meeting about with it then. Is there an android tv app for it yet? (If you know off the top of your head, if you don’t i don’t expect you to do my research for me haha)

My recommendations have been mostly fine and just keep the channels i regularly watch at the forefront. I’ve had my account for decades now so my subscribed feed is too much of a mess to wrangle now.
That saying, I do really miss the custom folders you could once make on YouTube. Back then I would categorise certain favourite YouTubers together and mostly use that. Using something like that again would be nice.

So another has to be active at the same time as accessing another? I can’t always guarantee that so that’s a bit too much of a faff around and having to do that multiple times a day would be annoying. I’m glad it’s there for those if works for, if it works that way though still think it’s not right for me sadly.

The lack of a “cross-platform” (for lack of a better term) account is why I don’t use things like GrayJay because I watch on different devices and want to ensure they all have similar recommendations and a watch history.
I use SmartTube next on tv like 80% of the time I watch YouTube.

on Sony Reminds PS Users They Don't Own Digital Games in c/technology@lemmy.world · 24 Aug 2026
Yeah they leave those non commercial lines in there so they have the “legal backing” to shut down anyone that’s causing them problems.

That’s not the same thing. There’s also nothing worse than being on a long journey wanting to listen to music but needing to also charge your phone before you reach your destination.

It’s also a nice time waster to try and see how big you can get it before whatever it is you’re waiting for is done
SEO is what ruined Google, then AI came along and was used to SEO the shit out of the shittiest websites
