I really liked this game. Felt like the perfect length for making one introspective about death.

Judging by that screenshot alone I can tell this is too scary for me.

It seems like the AAA publishers don't know what to do with that type of mid-budget game that was the staple of the 2000s generation.

Spend a bit of money (not crazy much), make something fun with a bit of originality, and just put it out for sale. No complex monetisation strategy or pipeline to funnel people to subscriptions. We give you money, you give us game.

There are a lot of small issues with the integrated apps, the most recent one being the search in Apple Music failing if I type in more than one word. Another issue I've experienced that if I plug my USB sound card in I will have to restart any app that is capable of audio playback or they will play the audio too slowly. This bug wasn't there before 14.6 so I don't think it's an issue with my hardware.

In all fairness I've had some other bugs that have subseqently been fixed, but it has sometimes taken years and it's frustrating when the whole mantra used to be "it just works". Then again, maybe it never "just worked" and I've just forgotten about how buggy and bad it was in the past.

This is what I get for using Apple products for many years. The qualirty of my brain has gotten worse.

I hope they spend the entire week detailing all the bugs in macOS they intend to fix. It feel like the stability and overall qualirt has gotten real bad over the years.

I've played 5 of the Layton games and I agree that the crossover game is the best one!

Well, yeah. Isn't the whole point of these foolish office mandates to get people to quit? That way they can reduce their workforce without the cost and negative press of another round of layoffs.

To be honest with you, the algorithm is pretty good. I'm a pretty active user of "not interested" and "don't recommend this channel" so the algorithm generally shows me stuff I already like or things I may be interested in.

What I find frustrating is that there are so many extra UI blocks shoved in between regular videos. Featured current events, rentable movies, playable games, and the fucking shorts I don't give a shit about. Since I mainly watch on mobile I also can't just remove those sections and even when I dismiss them, YouTube decides to shove them in my face again and again.

I just want to be left alone to watch my nerdy stuff :(

Based on what the YouTube frontpage looks like when I'm not logged in I can guarantee that I will have zero interest in anything that gets hyped up on a leaderboard. But YouTube will of course malform its UI so it can constantly shove it into my face like it does with shorts.

I've selected "performance" in the PS5 settings, but I've experienced several AAA games ignoring it and having their own graphics setting that defaults to "fancy graphics" mode.

3/4 of players want performance, but publishers don't care.

 

When I open a post I get an "unknown" error. This happens on every post, no matter what community/instance, whether it has attachments/comments/etc. Not sure how to debug it.

 

I find it incredibly disruptive every time this page comes up and it's never completely capable of restoring my tabs. Is there any way to disable it so that it will instead update when I choose to restart Firefox?
