Sweeney has Steam living rent free in his head. Whining about Monopoly

Meanwhile, Epic Games already has something resembling a monopoly with the unreal engine, its buggy and resource hungry as fuck, and just seems to be getting worse. Necessitating an arms race of computer upgrades just to run the newest games on their obtuse engine thats being used for everything now. Epic certainly isnt doing anything about it. Its just a money printer for Tim’s legal battles.

CEOs like you’re talking about, they dont drive.

the only time they’ll step behind the wheel of a car is for a pleasure cruise in some multi million dollar supercar on a track, or a closed / private road.

Musk also has a private army of security contractors (and someone like him probably has mercenaries off killing people in other countries too)

he’s far too much trouble to go after, if you’re DHS, regardless if you’re Trump DHS or Democrat DHS. someone like that is ungovernable.

I was an intel guy most of my life, Intel on all the hand-me-downs I got from my grandfather’s appliance store, Intel on my first gaming PC in 2008 til 2012, Intel on the 2012-2019 PC, it wasn’t until I built my current PC in 2019 that I Switched because of the Meltdown / Spectre / Etc issues, largely just out of reputation not actually understanding them.

Sufficed to say, I left in 2019 and have had no reason to return.

Schrodinger’s Pedo. he could have committed the crimes, he could be innocent.

neither outcome is going to threaten his power. thats the problem, the Files could come out tonight, doctored, or legit, and regardless of what happens, he’ll still be the President tommorow, and GOP Congress will never impeach him.

That’s a really sharp observation…
You’re not alone in thinking this… No, youre not imagining things…

“This is what gpt will say anytime you say anything thats remotely controversial to anyone”

And then it will turn around and vehemently argue against facts of real events that happened recentley . Like its perpetually 6 months behind. It still thought that Biden was president and Assad was still in power in syria the other day

rhetorical question, I know what she’s doing, clicking on random shit and then blaming other people for her problems.

every intrusive advertisement or popup. “I got hacked” every wrong website she goes to “this is a scam”

both of them shield, coddle, and enable a 53 year old man who is an overt Nazi and purge/mass death obsessed eugenicist freak, (my uncle), a lot more needs to be said to them honestly.

depending on your household’s browsing habits, it can be downright insane how much traffic goes through ones network (and the web at large), that is just nothing but dog shit.

I monitored my pihole at my place and my own traffic is usually no more than 15% garbage with about 750,000 domains blocked, but the second grandma or grandpa starts doomscrolling boomer things on their phones and ipads. I saw the network traffic at 60% blocked one time and I had to confront them and flatly ask them “what the fuck are you doing on your phone?”

also set up a Region exemption or whatever, blocking russian, chinese, and a whole bunch of other untrustworthy TLDs and im literally showing my grandmother the repeated attempts to communicate with something in fucking China in real time whilst she’s playing some solitare game she downloaded.

Not even a linux guy, but I had a Pi from a decade ago that I never opened, decided to set it up and use it for something useful, friends suggested Pihole. pained myself for 2 days getting everything working (most of my trouble had to do with peripherals and IP addresses not the device itself) but after the grief, got it working and it was well worth it.

I even printed a sticker for it that said “where ads go to die”

sorry doubleclick, but you’re toast

I only fell for one of those maybe once or twice before I caught on. No money was lost though. just spam/adware

I did manage to get scammed and have my habbo hotel account stolen though, I was also a stupid kid.

I wasn’t dunking on the game, I only said I didnt play it, and otherwise, anything in the present that Krafton is associated with seems like something to avoid

The internet in the 2000s was like a WW1 Trenchline. Noise and graphic content everywhere and one wrong move could cost you life or limb.

I dont exactly remember when it started getting “safer” because I think the same time the internet was getting safer to browse, a lot of Millenial and Zillenial kids were getting smarter and otherwise learning how to not get malware and worms on their PC

the creation in the game is advanced, its the gameplay inbetween the character creator and house designer that I find to be hollow

Dumbass stole an odd number of shoes.

yeah cause you cant get one at your local best buy anymore, but someone will certainly harrass you into trying to buy a smart TV

Likely because those sites are built by the same provider.

I work for a car dealership and all of the other dealerships of the same brand in our region use the same family of providers, We -used- to have the faces of real employees pop up on the chat thing until they got too busy to handle it

now its the same stock photo of a person who likely doesnt even exist

Rose tinted glasses. Shopping online in 2005 was absolutely not as simple as 3 clicks.

you missed the part about broken links, pages that wouldnt load because of some random HTML error, oh, and the payment itself either getting rejected or otherwise not working for a long time.

I never cared for Subnautica I also never cared for PUBG

But what little I know about PUBG, What I’ve seen them do to Subnautica 2, and that lazy AI ridden “Sims killer” Inzoi, Im of the opinion Krafton are just hustlers.

He’s lived in a bubble his entire life. for 60 years he lived in an aristocrat’s bubble. and since he was in his mid to late 60s, he’s lived in one where he’s treated like a living god. He was raised by affluent , arrogant, racist and supremacist bastards, and that will never leave him.

remember a few weeks ago , if that. he had a fruedian slip and dropped an antisemetic remark when he was trying to talk about scammers or something?
