So... just saw the DLSS 5 thing... I had to double check I didn't just fall into a coma for 2 weeks and it was April 1st...
...nGreedia delenda est

@Brojep0451 Fair enough, but, like, this is so stupid that it wouldn't even work on any 60 year old I know. Like... wat...

[Sila'an 🟨⬜️🟪⬛️ @alktrax]

Just a "listening to Hetzjagd by ATR with cranked volume knob while staring at the wall and drinking coffee"-kinda morning right now...

[Sila'an 🟨⬜️🟪⬛️ @alktrax]

XChat fucking sucks, whoever came up with the idea that your messages are supposed to be black text on white background WHEN IN FUCKING DARKMODE needs to have their kneecaps rearranged, and I want regular fucking DMs back.
Fuck all y'all who made this atrocity a thing.

@Iam_best_dev @gaming_leaker Fair enough... looking it up, the stats are apparently a Zen 4 6-core CPU, and a 28 CU RDNA 3 GPU with 8 gigs of GDDR6...
So, some modified hardware that has about the same stats on paper as a Ryzen 5 7600x, and a slightly cut down Radeon RX 7600...
...also, 16 gigs of DDR5 RAM

@Iam_best_dev @gaming_leaker ...you might want to give the announcement another view. The thing is not really a new console, it is a basically un-upgradable small PC that runs Steam OS.
You would literally sell your PC to buy another, more locked down PC...

...fucking 12 years apparently on this hellsite.
...fuck you rat.

@Brojep0451 classic Igor (aka.: up to P4) is just... well, whatever impression you have of him now will probably stick. Slightly freaky looking, but otherwise a humble, inviting old gentleman, and proprietor of the Velvet Room, who generally knows more than he lets on
P5 Igor is... not that.

[Sila'an 🟨⬜️🟪⬛️ @alktrax]

@zach_gallen @Brojep0451 Same... only saw a playthrough, but, the second he spoke, combined with the entire vibe of the velvet room (and just the minor grammatical quirk of him saying "my velvet room" instead of just "the velvet room") made me instantly go "...yeah, no, that is not Igor, who are you?"

[Sila'an 🟨⬜️🟪⬛️ @alktrax]

@zach_gallen To me this is just another thing I'd have to sign up to AND one fewer levels of removal from my private life, as the new processing thing wants my bank account directly.

[Sila'an 🟨⬜️🟪⬛️ @alktrax]

Well, fuck that noise about bandcamp...
...guess I just won't accept any payments anymore, nor will I upload further tracks there...
...sad.

[Sila'an 🟨⬜️🟪⬛️ @alktrax]

@zach_gallen AFAICT boils down to processing fees and how they are somewhat hard to follow
sure, might be something I'd care about IF I made an amount of money from my music that makes the fees worth worrying about. I don't, tho

[Sila'an 🟨⬜️🟪⬛️ @alktrax]

@zach_gallen bandcamp is dropping paypal and will be using some different payment processor and yadda yadda, short things short: fuck that noise.

Mind you, the original Blade Runner is one of my favorite movies of all time... and Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep is one of my favorite novels. Hell, I like darker sci-fi in general and cyberpunk in specific, 2049 however, just didn't do much for me.

[Sila'an 🟨⬜️🟪⬛️ @alktrax]

For some reason it says that Blade Runner 2049 is trending in germany
...oh well, have an unpopular opinion:
I don't like 2049. Thought Blade Runner didn't need a sequel to begin with, and after seeing it, my opinion didn't change.

[Sila'an 🟨⬜️🟪⬛️ @alktrax]

@MichaelLotusTri @BerryGoldHeart @SpinoNova Does this count?
if not, the next I can think of was Turok 2...

[Sila'an 🟨⬜️🟪⬛️ @alktrax]

In more positive news: we had some bellpeppers planted a couple months ago. They are getting ripe by now - aaaaand the ones that are, are surprisingly tasty. So, yay for that.

[Sila'an 🟨⬜️🟪⬛️ @alktrax]

my eye is still burning... I would say I should probably see a doctor about that, but my lungs are also annoying me, and my nose is stuffy...
...so, I assume I just have some kind of allergic reaction to something...
...fucking hate it.
