It’s server-based so you need to be online to play. However you can pretty much play it solo without interacting with other players (which is how I generally play it, save the occasional events and challenges).

They’ve added significant amount of content post-launch which includes new locations, NPCs, missions etc so it’s not too bad, although I would say NPCs aren’t as well put together as other Fallout games.

Friends don’t let friends buy ASUS unless the purchasing friend enjoys months of customer support or RMA nightmare.

I’m in the same boat but having a blast with FO76. I’m glad I waited since the rocky launch back in 2018 - while the game is still far from perfect, it’s a lot of fun to play and Bethesda did a good job fixing up the game.

It’s probably the best and fastest “AI-powered search” I’ve tried so far. Think of it as a search engine on steroids, which can handle complex questions and give you tailored responses. It’s also one of the few that really jumped out of the “text-based” chat format and really embraced more modern multimedia interface.

Dead Space (2008) ADS Cannon Puzzle. Epitome of game making. Guarantees 5 hours of your time whether you like it or not.

Do you make your purchasing decisions based on these categories? Best camera, best battery etc.?

No, but it’s not really the point of this video.

It’s a marketing and publicity stunt, kinda like Nothing’s fiasco with the Sunbird app. The goal is to get people talking about them and come out looking like the good guy underdog vs Apple. To be fair their plan is probably working judging by how many people are jumping out in front of Beeper and condemning “Big Apple”, even though Apple is just doing what any service provider should be doing.

In both cases I think they would deny it.

I don’t have a solution for the 2nd situation (and I don’t think anyone really does), this is more of a social problem. The point I’m making is that in the first scenario there is a clear pattern of denial for those who need help.

In terms of how you differeniate it, my understanding is if the behavior is impacting your life negatively then you would seek help. But I’m not an expert and that’s not a problem we are solving here.

Up next after Elongate

You can freely think that I am one, and I genuinely think I’m not. If you think that I am one, that’s your problem, not mine.

I mean that’s exactly the issue lol. You might not be an alcoholic, but if you were there’s a solid chance you’d deny that fact.There is a good reason why parts of the 12 step program involve admitting and recognizing that there is a problem, and it’s not limited to alcoholism but substance abuse in general.

A lot of people who genuinely need help refuses to see or admit that they do.

It’s because denial is part of being an alcoholic. The same goes with being called a liar.

You know what an even better take is? “We hear you, we’ll take your feedback” or just as good, say nothing at all.

Arguing that you are smarter or wiser than your users / customers is paradoxical. You are by definition not smart if you attempt to do this.

How do you guys cook your fumes?

I crank up all the performance settings and keep Ling’s website on 24x7. Nothing makes a more decadent fume than running state-of-the-art portable gaming hardware on shitty web code. Can’t beat the high off of Steam Deck engineers’ imaginary tears.

Why do you think it’s more complicated than a yes or no?

Destroying the Amazon for beef is a better use? Swimming pools are better uses?

As opposed to using them for Bitcoin? Oh yes, 1000%.

The technology is interesting but the people and economics around Crypto is rotten to the core. Crypto as it is today is a shitstain on humanity.

Ummm, all of the examples you gave are actually more reasonable and valuable uses of water than Bitcoin.

SelfAwareWolf is that you?

Looks like Bethesda discovered ChatGPT.

Some of those replies are as bland, hunky-dory and sanitized as can be, with a dash of “you’re playing it wrong”.

First Nic Cage, then Chalamet? Death Stranding 2 cast is going to be stacked.

E2EE means it’s End-to-End Encrypted. If it’s decrypted at any point during transit then it’s by definition not E2EE and Beeper shouldn’t be making that claim.
