AnonTwo, (edited ) to linux in Ending support for Windows 10 could send 240 million computers to the landfill. Why not install Linux on them?

...What does the writer think support end means? Microsoft bricks the PC as soon as the support period ends?

They're going to just keep using Windows 10, security be damned. Probably a good number of users who weren't keeping their PC up to date even when Microsoft was forcing updates on them.

AnonTwo, to asklemmy in Why aren't modern 3D platformers as good as the PS2 era of 3D platformers?

So...you grew up with Ps2 is what i'm hearing.

3rd person shooters are already a small niche and that's without even including platformer!

Nobody can figure out what you're saying because you're associating "good" with a subgenre of a subgenre

AnonTwo, to memes in "Who are my senators?", "What is a gyatt?", "How do you microwave ramen?"

I think they're only worried about like, family or friends finding out. It's not really a concern to them if an entity they don't know has that info.

I mean, I won't say everything is better, but it's not exactly as bad as you're saying either.

Sure, 1000s of games are bad. 1000s of games were bad in the 90s and 2000s too. Bugsby 3D was allowed to exist.

OP isn't even able to say games back in the day were good as he has already bashed N64 and Gamecube (lame move btw, Goemon's Great Adventure I still play every year). He's very much just thinking of PS2.

How many people have missed out on Hat In time exactly?

AnonTwo, to asklemmy in Does anyone else hope the bulk of Reddit stays there?

Not really. I feel like it's not healthy for any community if all the people you don't like aren't there to offer their viewpoint. The more you build an echo chamber with no dissenting opinions, the more extreme it becomes and the less it's able to deal with things that clash with it's ideals. The less it's involved with things that clash with it's ideals.

-This does not include groups with completely bad faith arguments that are clearly racist bigots.

?? That doesn't make a game good. That's just artistic choice

AnonTwo, (edited ) to asklemmy in Why aren't modern 3D platformers as good as the PS2 era of 3D platformers?

Can't really work with this without examples. I don't think 3D platformer quality went down but I also think it's always been all over the place.

Like Hat in Time wasn't that long ago.

let's see...got a picture of "3D platformers in past 10 years"

https://libreddit.kylrth.com/img/ad57oxhe2pfa1.png

I'm looking at it and honestly I need examples as to where you think Ps2 beat out this list so blatantly that there's a clear issue.

AnonTwo, (edited ) to asklemmy in Why aren't modern 3D platformers as good as the PS2 era of 3D platformers?

You're...just objectively wrong then. A Hat in Time was one of the best platformers released in the past 10 years, and even if you don't like it you can't base the entire genre on your own opinion.

From what i'm gathering your issue is less that the genre is bad and more that there aren't a lot of "dark, gritty, realistic" platformers...which...there never was.

Like unless PS2 somehow had literally all of them *you haven't given examples other than ratchet and clank) You got Sonic and Mario in early 3D, Banjo Kazooie and DK 64 at the peak of early 3D, conker's bad fur day which is dark but also extremely cartoony...

Then you got platformers like Okami which again...cartoony. Goemon's 3D platformers and thats all cartoon

Like I'm basically trying to say more games in the platformer genre were cartoony than not throughout 3D platformer history and we need more examples of what you really mean

But like you're basically making a claim the entire genre currently is bad over an opinion of something that was never really that common to begin with.

edit: I even tried looking up platformers on PS2 and was greeted with Sly2, Rayman (did that have a 3d platformer?), psyconauts, Spongebob: BFBB

Like great games yeah, but the thing you're basing the entire topic on really seems to be a minority if your issue is a particular art style....

AnonTwo, to piracy in Piracy vs. Crunchyroll account deletion

Some piracy sites do have accounts, just mostly small-scale.

Most of this complaint really doesn't have to do with piracy...I mean a lot of account sites don't even have anything to pirate.

AnonTwo, to piracy in Youtube’s Anti-adblock and uBlock Origin

Could be luck, but of those I only found Viewtube and Freetube to be responsive at this time of day to a live stream (the others either loaded endlessly or said they couldn't load the page)

That was only of the web/desktop ones.

Freetube seems to support youtube chat as well, which the others don't.

AnonTwo, to asklemmy in Anyone else missing posts in smaller Lemmy communities because they are overshadowed by the popular ones?

I had to block one of the meme's communities for now because there were times where one person would post 4 different memes within seconds of each other, they would all get upvoted, and now a 4th of the page are memes

Not that I dislike memes, but it was happening for most of the day. It did convince me to specialize my subscribed list a bit more though.

AnonTwo, to lemmyshitpost in 4chan prepared me for this debate 😏

To be fair, it's also just the word for someone you don't have a name for.

Easy name to pick when you can't think of a username after dozens of "name already taken" prompts

AnonTwo, (edited ) to piracy in I feel like the Steam Deck is the best proof of Gabe Newell's quote that "piracy is a service issue."

...?

No they couldn't, it's fucking Linux. They'd have to tie the controller drivers hostage to "lock it down", and at that point they'd hit so many hiccups with legitimate users.

Like they'd have to pull so many things from Linux (in particular Proton) to "DRM-ify" the steamdeck.

And as I think someone else just posted, some of the stuff they'd need to lock-down aren't even things Valve has control over. Like I said Proton but Valve doesn't own proton.

AnonTwo, to bestupdates in My ex husband and his new wife made my daughter a back brace out of wood and steel and forced her to wear it.

Also if they had alternating custody what was the plan exactly when custody switched? Especially given that they already got prosecuted for the first time they did it....

Like it required planning and not planning at the same time
