Aha, I found this this video for global total sales over time, which shows that the Switch passed the Wii last year. Kinda interesting to see the comparisons!

Hmm, stickers asides, from the trailer I guess this seems like a “point and click” adventure game!

I kinda liked these kinds of games before, but must admit that I haven’t really played those kinds of games that much in recent years.

Rudy: “I’ll probably not see him again”

Me: He’s gonna become an exchange student isn’t he

Next scene: “HA HA HA HA HA”

Started playing Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE by the Danganronpa team, it really does feel like a Danganronpa style game but with a new setting! Kinda refreshing now to get a new setting and not have the story “locked” by the Danganronpa setting, actually.

Also I got back into Hyper Light Drifter, which I played a bit a few years ago, but it didn’t quite “click” with me. I think I found the map confusing. However this time I managed to understand how to navigate better, and got more into the game!

Man, they are still not selling them in Norway, so only one shop has them as a “special import”, and it cost 827GBP for even the 64GB version lol.

Oh well, not as if it is that useful for me since I am usually at home almost all the time after work anyways. I have barely even used the Nintendo Switch’s portable mode.

Man, I never got around to play the first game.

Out of the Lemmy apps I tried out, Voyager is the app I used the most, and it is definitely a great app! But I did miss the smoothness and customisability of Sync, so I will most likely use that on my phone from now on.

As much as I like Voyager, I do feel like there is some slowdowns/stuttering and feeling of the GUI not always doing what I intended to do. Not a lot, but enough to sit in the back of my mind.

That being said I’m still using Voyager on the iPad and also in the browser on my PC! (Which reminds me that I should try installing the Voyager app from the iPad app store, maybe that’ll actually fix the occassional slowdowns.)

Yeah they are empty on my phone too, and I’ve never used any DNS-adblocking on my home network. I suspect it might be because whatever ad system Sync uses currently just doesn’t have any ads for my country, but I don’t actually know.

Help, my ads are broken, it’s just a blank box with the text “Sponsored content”, is it just because the app is still in beta? I don’t have any adblocking installed on my phone lol

Oh well I may buy lifetime once that is available anyhows.

I read some interview about how they had to “nerf” the headcrabs by making them latch on to your chest instead of actually your face because it was too intense for VR, haha

Loved the game!

Hmm, I’m getting “Connection refused”, seems like they are having server issues?

Integration with Google Assistant smart speakers is the main reason I would want to use Google Tasks instead of other Todo solutions. In particular, asking Google to add groceries to my shopping list while I’m cooking, so that I don’t need to bring out my phone and tap it in manually since my hands are occupied or dirty.

But the integration has sucked for so long that I had pretty much given it up. Maybe if it really actually works now (instead of putting my tasks into various other Google services), I will give Google Tasks another shot.

418 I’m a teapot

Yeah I guess the apps are just using regular markdown libraries so they haven’t added any “Lemmy extras” to the parsing.

That reminds me of the threads/comments about the spoiler tagging in Lemmy being broken in many apps, hopefully that’ll be worked out sooner than later.

Just tested and it doesn’t seem to work in neither Connect, Voyager/wefwef, Liftoff nor even in Jerboa… Only worked in the Lemmy PWA.

Man, that reminds me of an art installation that I saw many years ago, where an artist set up a bunch of home electronics in a completely dark room so that their LED lights looked like star constellations.

It was kinda beautiful and yet a reminder about all the “light pollution” we get from these devices, basically what you are talking about.

I tried to look up the name of the artist and that art installation, but couldn’t find it.

job interviewer: “do you work well under pressure?”

professional procrastinators: “it is the only way I know how to work”

I think I kinda noticed too, I suspect it could be because some of the CGI 3Dish background panning look jittery in 24FPS because I’m used to playing 3D video games in 60 or 120FPS lol

Was not noticable for a majority of the episode and did not bother me much in any case.

They are gonna make you an offer you cannot refuse
