If you don't trust...

  • The Associated Presss (citing US Intelligence),
  • CNN (citing Microsoft), and
  • NPR (citing "an Israeli watchdog group" -- okay, I'll give you this one),

...then who do you trust?

It almost sounds like you're brushing off any media report as "a mouthpiece", and only believing random anonymous posts on the Internet.

Isn't it common knowledge that there is an Iranian state-sposored social media campaign doing the exact same thing for the other side?

Social Media is the best thing that has ever happened for Iran, Russia, & China in terms of expanding the reach of propaganda.

I just don't connect my Hisense to the Internet, and let my Nvidia Shield TV do all the "Smart" stuff. 🤷‍♂️

Ok, cool.

Let's revisit this when Rockstar gets universal adoration for GTA6, which will absolutely require a Rockstar account & launcher.

[–] RxBrad@infosec.pub 4 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Not only do you need an account with those other publishers, but you often need an entirely separate launcher.

This Sony thing is simply creating an account.

This is all just console wars bullshit. It's stupid when it was Nintendo vs. Sega. It's stupid when it's Sony vs. Microsoft. And it's stupid when it's PC vs Console.

Grow the fuck up, you emotionally-stunted fucking manchildren.

I'm legitimately worried about next gen, since Sony is doing the same thing with their pricing as GPU manufacturers.

That thing being, the increase in price is >/= the actual increase in performance. The PS5 Pro is a 75% price increase over the similarly disc-driveless $399 PS5 (hardware which is almost a half-decade old now).

For me, entirely the opposite.

I just bought the Lossless Scaling app on Steam for my RTX 3070. That shit is magic on the 144Hz 4K TV that my gaming PC is connected to. I play games exclusively with a gamepad, so I notice absolutely zero input latency.

I have fully drunk the frame gen Kool-Aid.

It's funny, because as much as people here hate corporations and monopolies, they would seemingly kill their own mother if it meant Steam would be the only seller of PC games.

EDIT: As demonstrated by these angry downvote reactions.....

Hey, at least all of us peeps in the US can upgrade our >$100 capped plans to unlimited for the low-low price of $30-50/month (i.e. what some of our friends overseas pay for their whole-ass unlimited crazyfast internet plan).

Your -arrs see the torrent download folder as /mnt/arr-stack/torrents/completed, and qBittorrent sees it as /downloads.

Maybe this is only a problem with Transmission, but I've had trouble making my Arr stack play nice with torrents when the different apps think downloads live in different folders.
