TIL that Nintendo designed the usb-c port not to be compatible. Fuck them for that.

Steam still needs more competition IMO. If Steam were to disappear tomorrow, the gap left in the PC gaming market would be massive.

The best way to touch Nintendo products is with a soldering iron - to install a modchip.

In 2006 they bundled Wii Sports with the Wii, which seemed to benefit them considering the Wii's success. Though, the Switch 1 had a the demo "1, 2, Switch" for 60 USD and sold better than the Wii, though culturally, more people probably know about Wii Sports compared to 1, 2, Switch.

It was the eyes that gave it away for me. They look, just, wrong.

There is a GUI program called "envision" which makes setup pretty easy, since it will also setup additional components for you.

That's why most people who use VR on Linux don't use SteamVR and instead use Monado, like I do. Monado is FOSS as well.

No? Have a look at LVRA, many headsets are supported, and IMO using Monado is better than SteamVR..

I bough Farcry 5 for around $10 CAD a few years back and that's about how much value I got put of it.

The Environment Canada weather forecasts are pretty barebones

I'm going to have to disagree with you on that. I actually really like how Environment Canada presents their forecasts. They have a text description for each day, which I like because it shows how much data they actually have about the forecast for that day. Also, no ads and no bullshit on their website.

Intel is almost flawless, I say as someone who uses an Intel A750. It does have a bug where putting load on the GPU causes a dramatic increase in latency for GPU compute tasks, but that's mostly only important for VR. Flatscreen games work great.

Yup, I was looking in the wrong section. This will make great ammunition when convincing people not to use Meta services.

We do allow allegations of mental illness or abnormality when based on gender or sexual orientation, given political and religious discourse about transgenderism and homosexuality

 

Wow, I'm sure those sweet, sweet, extra lanes will get you 2 seconds faster to work each day. At the cost of sustainable city and cyclists wellbeing.
