I wish The Board talked more often. They sound cool in my headphones.

What's up with the way FF7 Rebirth loads in LODs? Things constantly look awful.

3 swipes and then you hold up the block of cheddar to examine; "audible sharpness" rule kicks in (lens flare and all). You nod with satisfaction.

Lol.. what the fuck, youtube? AI image recognition Ads on memes? In my paid premium feed?
Screenshot of a paid premium feed on Youtube. The focus of the screenshot is a still-image meme. The meme features a man wearing a button-up shirt. Overlaid on the meme image is an auto-generated, image-recognition-based, ad. The algorithm has seen the shirt worn by the man in the meme and thus has chosen to advertise Nautica men's wear from Macy's.

Yeah i hate these "surveys" because they always appear on videos from channels i don't watch, and just come off as a lame trick to get me to look at them anyway. Here's one i saw recently, which is trying to get me to watch an hour-and-ten minute long video and weigh-in on whether or not it's slop:

#Linux and #Proton have come a long way. In 2013 I could barely get Fallout NV to run after jumping thru dozens of hoops. Today, I just buy a triple-A game on release day and fire it up. I am so excited to experience Death Stranding 2 😁

I switched to Falkon. Built-in adblock is nice. Wish there was more extension support, though (like Bitwarden).

The announcement of the "dark mode icon" was the typical passive-aggressive jab at light-mode, so I thought them making it a glowing white butteryfly was some kind of internal passive-aggressive spat amongst devs about it or something. bsky.app/profile/bsky...

Wish it were more granular... Pokémon X, ToTK, MH Rise are all way closer to 500 than 100. Violet probably only barely broke 100.

LOL what the fuck? "We see that people talk on Teams because their managers demand to have meetings and Teams is what comes by default on office computers, so therefore the data suggests that the people just can't get enough of talking to their computers! :)"

I could turn settings down until the game looks like dogshit and it'll cap out at ~70-80 FPS.

Borderlands 4 is a lot of fun, and I'm lucky, I guess, that it runs "okay" on my computer at 50-60 FPS with no framegen. I'll take it as a blessing since some people have it worse, but why is it this bad when I still have headroom on both CPU and GPU?
A screenshot of Borderlands 4 running at about 60 FPS, with a performance monitor window open over the game screen showing CPU utilization at ~60% max per core and ~80% max GPU utilization.

Trying to watch Big Clive show some schematics for some shit he's taken apart and I'm thinking, "Damn his camera shot framing game is kinda off today." No, turns out Youtube surreptitiously zoomed and cropped the shit when I wasn't paying attention. What the fuck man?? Who wants this???

I fuckin hate how Monster Hunter Wilds looks like you're playing on a rapidly morphing printout from a dot-matrix printer unless you have TAA turned on. But then, when you turn TAA on, it's blurry as fuck like you need to get your prescription checked.

Eri's "Clerk" class in #Yakuza7 is peak RPG. A warrior trained in the ways of cubicle combat--crushing heads with a reams of copy paper, testicular assault with a staple gun, throwing scissors like shuriken... It's just so goddamn absurd and it kills me (it's perfection; I cannot get enough).
Eri, a character from Yakuza: Like A Dragon brandishes a staple gun with malicious intent. She has a stern look upon her face.

Nope, frame gen was off. I had FSR/DLSS turned completely off to run at native res, so the frame gen option was greyed out. I have played the beta for a few hours today, though, and it doesn't have the frame pacing issues the benchmark had.

I got "Excellent" using ultra settings, native 1440p no FSR, with a Ryzen 5 5600x and Radeon RX 7900 XT. But despite every scene (except in town/camp) being supposedly >60 FPS it felt awful because the frame pacing was dogshit. Tons of microstutter, especially during the lightning segment.

So, I felt bad for seeing something that is actually cool and impressive attention to detail, where my knee-jerk reaction was to be negative...

I have become so jaded by poorly-optimized games lately that, while playing the intro of MGS5, my 1st impression of seeing Snake crawl prone was that his model was phasing between LODs as he lunged. It took a bit to realize they animated his normal map to make his muscles ripple under his skin.

Same experience here with the official dock. It blows chunks. Sometimes, if I forget to turn the monitor off before booting the Deck, the Deck will just kind of sit in limbo and never actually boot up. Instead, just sitting there with a lit-but-blank screen.

I look at the navigation bar on the left, and any creators with a blue dot by their name have new content. I can see very directly at a glance who has uploaded new stuff since the last time I looked.

This is the only way I use YouTube, and the only way I have used it for many years. The YouTube bookmar saved in my browser points to my subscriptions page. The home page is cancer. I do not rely on YouTube to tell me what to watch. I look for myself.

I know this kind of snarky reply doesn't actually help you in your situation for what you do. But it feels great to be off of Microsoft's Wild Ride again. No full-screen ads when I log in, no ads in my start menu, no notifications to sign up for Game Pass or purchase MW3 every other day anymore.
