It's just a planck with a screen attached to it. Could easily make your own with a pi zero and a screen and turn you can use any keyboard and will be able to call it around a bit easier than that awkward shape

MrScottyTay ,

That's just how camera controls were best then, they were always horizontally inverted and not many key you change it. If you emulate or play it on pc, you can at least rebind it so its no longer inverted

MrScottyTay ,

Where'd he come from Where did he go, where's the sexbot: Gigolo Joe?

MrScottyTay ,

You sure you're not depressed?

MrScottyTay ,

You should try and work on yourself or get the help you need if you truly are. It's not something that should be dismissed just because you hear it may be common among others

MrScottyTay ,

Wish the VCS was in the UK. Prices are insane due to importing

MrScottyTay ,

It's mostly for students with issues that puts them at a bigger disadvantage to those that are "normal" when writing with a pen. Learning difficulties and motor function issues and differences alike. I used a word processor in exams towards the end of college due to learning difficulties and a subconscious grip that would ache my hand with overuse of a pen that slowed me down compared to others by a lot.

MrScottyTay ,

Oh interesting. I stand corrected

MrScottyTay ,

I think the real news is that they are no longer making new content cause the new mainline game is now all hands on deck with whoever's leftover just working on minor updates for 4 now

MrScottyTay ,

Redundancy means that they get paid for being made to leave the company. That terminology is used because it's different from being fired.

MrScottyTay ,

Read the guys comment again though. They say their issue is with calling them "redundancies" in a language sense. But it's not sugar coating it or anything, that's the legitimate term for what happened.

MrScottyTay ,

Qwerty is bad for physical keyboards, but it's actually pretty good for mobile especially for swipe typing. I use coleman-dh on an ergo split keyboard but i still use qwerty on my phone because it just works better.

MrScottyTay ,

If you faked your death you'd likely never want to tie yourself to any platform that requires you to make an account that could in time be used to identify you

MrScottyTay , (edited )

I hope this doesn't make them think they can do this again though. This should make them realise they should've always gave the Devs more time to cook or been more realistic with scope from the get go

MrScottyTay ,

I remember hearing even some high specced pcs were having issues and you had to essentially be lucky that you had a configuration that they had the time to optimise for. Just having the best gpu wasn't enough, for example

MrScottyTay ,

Recommended is absolutely meant to be "the game runs well on this" not just it runs

MrScottyTay ,

There is for windows, and it's further improved if you get power toys too

MrScottyTay ,

I'm currently not on my windows pc at the moment but it could be that it's functionality might actually be native to win 11? I don't realise use it myself I just remember seeing it when originally getting powertoys and thinking that was cool

MrScottyTay ,

I've probably completely misremembered it and maybe learned of it the same time i learned about and installed powertoys. My bad.

MrScottyTay ,

Have any NSO games been removed before? I've only ever heard of them adding new ones

MrScottyTay ,

Ah yeah, forgot about the non emulated games they have with the subscription

MrScottyTay ,

It's probably them just trying to go for a synonym to describe what happened as they're not usually allowed to repeat themselves.

MrScottyTay ,

Actually in the 360 era, the PS3 ended up selling more by the end.

So in the public eye people usually consider the 360 winning but by other metrics, the PS3 did.

MrScottyTay ,

In the UK, where I'm from, it's widely considered 360 won too.

The reason the PS3 won in the end I think was due to a worsening opinion of Microsoft towards the end when the original plan for the Xbox One was being discussed and shown, along with a lot of teenage gamers now being older with more disposable income allowing them to buy a PS3 later in the generation and trying out all of the exclusives they missed out on.

I don't know how true this rings out in general, but that was pretty much my experience.

MrScottyTay ,

The north east for me. Pretty much everyone had a 360 and everyone still calls it "the 360 days" or something of the other. But might just be the people I come across. Only had a few friends that had a PS3 in school, they always seemed to be left out from what the others were doing gaming wise. Wasn't until the PS4 until I started seeing people back to playing PlayStation by default like the PS2 days.

MrScottyTay ,

I would love a phone with a slide out keyboard

MrScottyTay ,

They never really dealt with the games biggest issue though and that was the massive battery drain. Once they hype died down it was just a way to kill my phone faster when I'm out and about and will more likely need it before I can charge it again.

MrScottyTay ,

We have been shown that there is some weight to a lightsaber when lit though. Like in Rebels and the Mandalorian/Book of Boba.

And this weight is different to how a normal sword would work. The length adjustment is to finetune this power/weight distribution to fit the user and their style of fighting. Which is why we get shotos and claymores, as well as different sizes for different sized species.

MrScottyTay ,

I was one of them to begin with but once I found out about the whole thing with people of certain countries not able to have an account even though they had already bought the game and were even previously able to play are now locked out, then I was on board.

I'm not against just making accounts, I must have thousands across the internet, what would be one more if I hadn't already had a PSN account.

MrScottyTay ,

It's on PS5, what you on about

MrScottyTay ,

Guitar hero for me was a 360 thing. I've always wanted to go back and try out the PS2 ones though, just not had the hardware.

MrScottyTay ,

OG Xbox had JSRF too though and it's stuck there. Never had a re-release

MrScottyTay ,

And the PS2 was also reportedly the hardest to work with, especially early on in its life before the tools had matured. It proliferated purely on the install base (partly thanks to the DVD playback)

MrScottyTay ,

Kingdom Hearts I & 2, Final Fantasy X, Jak trilogy, the Ratchet games, GTA 3D trilogy. So many games I still go back to this day.

Persona 3 and 4 I found out at the back end of the PS3 era and dusted off my PS2 just play them as well.

MrScottyTay ,

People nowadays hate having more than one account. They can't even bare having more than one exe that launches other exes installed on the same computer anymore

MrScottyTay ,

Right, so you hate steam too then?

If you do, I'm more talking about the cognitive dissonance of others that love steam just because it's the lesser evil of the launchers, but vehemently hate the idea of buying a game on another store front.

MrScottyTay ,

You can still do all of that stuff without owning the game via steam

Other than modding via workshop

MrScottyTay ,

Yeah specific single game launchers are pretty awful

MrScottyTay ,

It read to me that they do think that but also that it needs policing better and companies need to be more up front when selling the game to stay compliant and that ones that do not, need investigating

MrScottyTay ,

There's still no better email client than inbox. It was so fucking good

MrScottyTay ,

Those house rules seem very strange, to the point where this isn't really poker anymore.

There's a reason to the ranking of hands in poker due to the probability of getting them. Your roles make it so that an easier hand to get beats one that's harder to get. Very bizarre.

MrScottyTay ,

As a vegan myself I notice the opposite a lot. Veganism becomes the topic of conversation IRL more because of everyone around me asking questions like "don't you miss bacon" and "how long have you been vegan now?" And "would you ever eat meat again".

And when it's not about veganism specifically they often bring up meat when talking about food they had and then instead of contributing to the conversation, since that feels disingenuous to my ethics and I'm not a fan of lying in general, I'll tell them "sorry I'm vegan".

Also a lot of the stereotypical vegans that end up bringing up veganism on their own all the time is mostly just due to them likely being activists and quite honestly having to deal with the worst of the worst trying to ruin their day every day. And that shit takes it's toll, not to mention directly staring a lot of what makes them physically sick and upset right in front of them day in and day out. Constantly being reminded of what to them is genuinely horrific. That can change a person and make them very jaded and cynical in life. And in that case, tact no longer becomes an issue to them because to them it's a matter of life and death, and they mostly see death and this becomes desperate to make a change, even if it's a little one.

Sorry if this made me look like a stereotypical one, I'm not trying to preach. Just trying to share what it can be like on the other side.

Also they totally would take credit. We would call it "planting the seed". Making you conscious of the choice and hope you come to your own decision on how to and when to make it. ;)

-edit

God that's a wall of text, I'm sorry -.-

MrScottyTay ,

That's just them being categorically wrong though

MrScottyTay ,

Go to the website and you'll likely be the caveman

MrScottyTay ,

If you don't understand much about AI models, how they work, how to install/use them and unable to recover all of the specific jargon that comes with the field...

That site is very useful but it's not a great starting point, it is not useful in the terms of understanding everything beyond just diving in the deep end and troubleshooting via external help forums like stack overflow regularly to figure it out.

MrScottyTay ,

I'm in the UK and I've not yet had a 5G phone. We're also only having 3G turned off in the immediate future

MrScottyTay ,

I'm just adding that it's not the de facto just because it is in the US
