What are they so afraid of? They’re public servants, so they should be publicly identifiable. If they don’t like it, get off the government payroll

The “autopilot”

That’s the obvious answer, but it was available long before the orange twat too

I genuinely cannot understand how this 4th reich mobile is legally allowed to not just have this feature available to the public, but also sell it for a considerable amount of money. Even on US roads, it is not even remotely close to ready

I don’t understand why people are suddenly praising Gamefreak for this “miraculous” update, that fixed everything, when in reality it took a 10 year jump in hardware, and a slightly increased Pokemon density. Do these people think Xenoblade Chronicles ran on magic and unicorn dust, or some secret performance mode that only gets unlocked for that game?

Congrats to the devs. Biome is awesome, and it’s been a pleasure to use it

It would be yet another spit in the face, if they released a 80$ base game, with the typical 2 season passes, totaling almost 300$ in dlcs of questionable quality. But I wouldn’t hold my breath for anything, because it’s 2K and Gearbox we’re talking about

People will inevitably die as a result of this change. Call your representatives

At some point, it will only be worth it, if you either finish games at an alarming rate, or play so many different games, that buying them separately would make no sense

Probably not. Steam for macOS still has no SteamPlay support, so your best bet is installing the regular Steam through a separate Heroic prefix. Works great, but it does still require Rosetta.

That said, Box64 and FEX are both making a lot of progress, so it’d be awesome to see these in action officially soon

If this were an optional “skin” of sorts, it would have been completely fine with me. But this is a forced redesign, and a really bad one at that. There will likely be changes before the GM release comes out, but overall I just don’t like the design direction, nor the performance implications

Was this not already common sense?

Still has an LCD panel, and still has regular sticks. I guess saving 0.10$ per unit adds up

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not suggesting that they should just say okay, installing instagram from a Limewire download is the intended path now.

Using AUR or Nixpkgs to install your stuff is perfectly acceptable to me, for these exact reasons. You have a choice, you’re choosing your preference, and at the end of the day you get a vetted source from a trusted repository.

Choice is what matters to people, and it’s being taken away from them. But even beyond that, if i wanted to install an “unsupported/untrusted” app on my device, that should fully be my choice

I still hate the term “sideloading”, when used in this context. You don’t “sideload” anything on your computer. You just install things, from wherever you damn desire.

They only started using the term here, to gaslight people into thinking that installing mobile apps from sources, other than the ones that give Apple money, is somehow insecure

I’m sure the game will be fun enough, for people who want this experience regularly, but the price is just outlandish. There’s barely any innovation, version over version, and yet they are asking near double the money that Larian ask for Baldur’s Gate 3 today

80$ for Mario Kart is absolutely mental

I use Nix on my M1 Pro machine, and it’s by far my favorite laptop yet. The company and their business practices absolutely do suck though.

That said, there is certainly a middle ground for software there. I hate windows as much as the next guy, but macOS is at least Unix-adjacent, so it’s not a complete pain

I understand that the overwhelming majority of people will still continue streaming at 16:9, or the vertical equivalent. It’s not just about ownership of ultrawide displays. It’s about support for such output format, for people who do want it. But even going by your own example, a ton of phones are 19.5:9, with some models straight up being 21:9

We’re getting vertical streams before 21:9 aspect ratio support. Come on
