Yeah because they’re clinging to what they thought was a world in its last sanest place to them before overzealous CEOs were preaching the choir of AI and how it’ll solve everything. It’s easy for them to say and do the shit they do because they have no worry, the worst that can happen is the AI bubble popping, if ever. Even if it does, they’re still well off because of how much they pocketed by overpromising.

Everyone else got to watch what was once their dreams, be dashed at that cost.

They banked really hard on Starfield being the game that’ll determine how things will go for them. Starfield ended up not being that good of a reception because it was simply overhyped. Now everyone’s expectations on TES VI and Fallout 5 are all but lukewarm because they’re expecting more of the same which is Bethesda’s model.

But really, Starfield was that game for Bethesda and it under-delivered.

Email is something we simply cannot live without. They are primary sources of communication to reach you like account notifications, what accounts you’ve registered with it and vice versa.

GMail is not that easy. Because, there are places and services that use e-mail clients that are easy to be sent to and received by GMail. I’ve experienced this with ProtonMail for a while, where there’ll be services and individuals that could not reach me through my Proton e-mail and I’ve had difficulty reaching out to them.

I’ll continue to use ProtonMail myself. But, I can’t in good conscience feel in reason to support this company with my money and I’m especially concerned with relying on ProtonVPN so that will be getting uninstalled.

This is just not how you win people over and I’m tired of this day and age in tech where companies like this, pad their PR up with promises then do a 180 on their attitude towards everyone who uses their products that makes everyone second guess them. It’s bad enough we have things like Discord who has spent a couple years, making themselves look good and cozy for the public market that have alienated its userbase.

Bluesky showing their true colors and then we have this asshole CEO on Proton taking a dump whenever he pleases on the values of why we bothered using Proton in the first place.

It’s really not that hard to see why these executives are placed in their positions for. We’ve been seeing it in practice for a few decades now. Everything he’s saying is nothing we hadn’t heard before either.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman

Why would he hold such an opinion? Man, CEOs continue proving how little they actually contribute to the best interests of the world.

Another chance to tell people about “pride and accomplishment” for a third time!

Much harder to powertrip you say? Have you looked in the modlogs and see how moderators ban users in multiple instances that is unrelated to the original instance? It’s very reddit like.

Mastodon dodged a bullet though. It could’ve been them.

Good, because that damn thing is in the way. It’s just another block that is stacked on another block with another block. Just searching on Google is abysmally horrible in every way.

Last month former Bethesda veteran Bruce Nesmith – who was lead designer on Skyrim and a quest designer on Fallout 3, 4 and 76 – said he hoped the theories were true, because that would potentially lead to the ability to use boats and explore the water for the first time in the series.

What? You were able to buy boats in Daggerfall. Aside from exploring, yeah I get that. But no, it will not be the first time the series experiences boats. Maybe expanding them yeah but not experiencing.

Vimm’s Lair but be aware, downloads will slow to a crawl because it’s one of those donation sites that will only let you download full speed if you pay.

Can we fucking have nice things anymore? This is crystal clear, that CEOs of all kinds, ruin everything. Fuck you, Andy Yen.

That really explains a lot of the time as to why I’m offended when someone tells me to do something. Is right when I’m already doing it or have the idea to do it.

Because after just being told to do something I’m already doing, I immediately think of no longer wanting to do it out of spite.

One may be surprised as to how many games today will run on GPUs such as 660s even. Just don’t get your hopes up to make it run everything you throw at it.

I don’t see it happening. Before Steam, the only way PC games were being sold were GameStop (barely), computer stores and retailers. I don’t think anybody wants to go back to that or maybe they do just for nostalgic sakes but PC gaming has largely taken off from the physical media days.

God forbid the freaking Saudis start pitching offers for Valve. Or Tencent. Or Epic Games.

All that needs to happen is just one gullible person to allow it to happen, just one, within Valve when Gabe is gone.

And before that, wading through 200 asset flipping games before finding something good.

Valve, have you learned nothing from Steam Greenlight and why that had to be taken down?

Because it’s everywhere online. It’s not just a Reddit-problem. It’s an everywhere-problem. I didn’t even make this, I only edited the text and made the blue space a lot bigger around the blob. This is actually a meme template that’s been used a few times here and there for various purposes, it has a good message.
