As opposed to a xylophone made of dicks, which is a cockenspiel.

There are 5 rules

I was told all throughout my teenage years by family that I was labelled and that I’m not actually autistic. This was despite me being officially diagnosed with Asperger’s at 7.

It was when people started immediately picking it out that I stopped hiding it.

Cum M’Lady

Cum Cum M’Lady

(You’re my) butterfly sugar baby

Cum being a frame from a Riley Reid meme where she says “oh fuck you’re making me cum”

M’Lady being a fedora tipping neck beard.

“Here’s my immediate notice” 😂😂😂

At that point I’d need to call a fuckin hearse.

Suyu 😂😂😂😂

It’s like they’re begging Nintendo to sic private investigators and a whole centurion of highly paid lawyers on them.

Isn’t Java known for spitting out random errors?

There’s your problem. Using Linux is like using a dishwasher instead of a rice cooker to cook rice.

Does HML actually exist?

Every handheld outside of the Steam Deck, like the ROG Ally, Legion Go, and MSI Claw all use Windows, which can make the experience crippling for non-technically minded users.

Clearly this games journalist has never used Linux because despite the monumental efforts Valve have made to make thousands of games run on SteamOS and improve the UX through Proton, it is still an inferior experience to Windows for anybody that isn’t incredibly tech savvy and the kind of person that lives and breathes command lines.

But then again, what did I expect from an industry where people are genuinely paid to talk out of their butts about games.

Speaking as a Steam Deck owner, SteamOS works a lot of the time and that’s perfectly acceptable. But there has been the occasional ‘Steam Deck Verified’ game like Cthulhu Saves The World which soft locks on a black screen after battles.

Also, Linux is ideal for the kind of people that buy budget handheld devices like these. They are phenomenal emulation devices.

At times, I really don’t understand Microsoft’s MO.

They own a tonne of studios and IPs, and have also completed acquisitions of both Bethesda and Activision Blizzard over the past few years.

Xbox could easily surpass PlayStation if Microsoft actually bothered to leverage the intellectual properties they’ve developed and acquired to start pumping out exclusives. If they shat out a slew of console exclusives like new Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, StarCraft, Elder Scrolls, Doom, Pillars of Eternity, Perfect Dark, Banjo-Kazooie, Jet Force Gemini, Conker, Gears, Halo, etc games, and actually ensured they were competently made, Sony wouldn’t have a leg to stand on.

Heck, if World of Warcraft got an exclusive Xbox port optimized with gamepad controls in mind (cross parity with PC may not be possible given how prevalent third party add-ons are), they’d dethrone Sony.

I can understand why certain IPs like Minecraft are better kept multiplatform, because Microsoft make an absolute mint off of merchandising which made their $2bn acquisition of Mojang more than worth it.

Microsoft are dead-last in the console race because they aren’t doing anything with the sheer volume of IP’s they have.

Unless they’re doing this on purpose to avoid pissing off the FTC & CMA, acting all buddy-buddy with Nintendo and Sony because you’re too incompetent to compete isn’t going to drive innovation in the console market. If anything it’s going to stagnate things. Nintendo really need the kick up the arse necessary for them to actually improve their hardware and the state of Nintendo Switch Online, and perhaps they need both Microsoft and Sony to offer a superior product to open their eyes.

Just execute him if he’s going to basically be in solitary for the rest of his life. It’d be more humane.

The European Convention on Human Rights forbids the death penalty.

I thought the performance hit was quite substantial, like 20% to 30% lower frame rates from using dxvk. Maybe things have improved?

Native Vulkan support is of course the holy grail but so few games support it. The only few I can think of are Valve games.

Not even World of Warcraft supports Vulkan, and they’ve supported OpenGL for so long.

3.82% is actually pretty damn good. And if Windows 12 pushes us into a subscription model I can see that gap rising.

Also, if/when DirectX gets native Linux support, or DXVK/VKD3D matches the API in performance, that’ll be it.

Personally I’m thanking Valve for this.

This is peak YandereDev.

What was Wenger thinking sending Walcott on that early?

You misunderstand. I am not excusing the incel community. Any sympathy I had for them died years ago, and frankly I think any guy who thinks women deserve retribution because they won’t sleep with them is a fucking coward.

But here’s the thing, I think it’s a horrific symptom of our societal ills, not a cause. Inceldom is an economic issue first and foremost.

We are a society that profiteers from human misery in so many ways. Men are judged quite harshly for their wealth, status and their ability to provide, even when we’ve made great strides to bring about equality between the sexes. Wealth inequality has created a predominantly male underclass. This affects many things like being able to afford a home, access to physical and mental healthcare, etc.

Another thing that I think doesn’t help is how we’ve commodified sex in so many ways, but that’s a very deep subject that would take me way too long to go into.

Online dating specifically is a monopoly headed by just two parent companies. They want your experience to be as miserable as humanly possible so that they can sucker you into paying the cost of several MMO subscriptions just to use the premium tier of their apps.

The problem isn’t women, it’s that Bumble Inc and Match Group couldn’t give a flying FUCK about the integrity of their platforms. Socially awkward people depend on these apps to find love and their world view is being poisoned by a lack of interest from anybody who isn’t a bot, sex worker, scam artist or a lady from the other side of the world seeking to marry their way into their country.

I dunno either.

And people wonder why incels are a thing…
