WB? Of course it’s going to be cancelled. What is their executive department thinking? Why would anyone be looking forward to anything WB right now? 70% chance it’s going to be cancelled - the remaining 30 percent is going to be that it was cheapely done and rushed out crap

I don’t understand how gamers can so vehemently hate Facebook and Instagram, but salivate so heavily over the Meta Quest. A VR system that explicitly requires you to have a Meta account and will send all of your data up to them. All the same things they claim to hate about FB.

Agree with this comment and your first. Having ideals isn’t worth much if you aren’t willing to put your money where your mouth is. The cheap option is almost always the least moral one. “It’s better for the price” doesn’t justify - it does the opposite.

Fast fashion isn’t okay because it’s cheap, you’re just choosing to ignore the slave labor.

IKEA is cheaper but unless you’re truly going to keep the thing 10+ years you’re contributing to our throw away culture.

Examples go on

Cheaper is almost never the better alternative. You pay more to do the better thing, and if there isn’t a better thing, then sometimes that means going without. When it comes to meta, I’ll happily not take part in VR and wait for something else, or continue to use my existing equipment.

Physical Media collectors, do you or do you not keep the cases to your discs?

I don't, well, for a long time I didn't because it was a storage space issue. I've thrifted for movies and shows and put the discs in those big disc booklets that can be hard to carry. But at the same time they kept things in one place than having to play around with cases and whatnot....

Absolutely, they get too easily scratched without them. I get rid of the paper covers though, they just feel like ads.

Are they going to start making AAA games worth more than 60? You make something like RDR2 I’ll gladly pay over 100. You make another boring assassins creed I’ll wait until it’s 15.

That I25 expansion? What a fucking waste of money. 10 years later, not done and already it’s filled

Just build fucking trains, Colorado. How do the springs and fort Collins not have rail already? Such a huge commuter corridor and there is nothing. Shameful

It wasn’t us, it was the people who used it who really caused the failure.

Like us pc gamers don’t know how to wait out a game

“controversial”, meaning everyone hates it except google

God preach here. "Our storefront works half the time, is clunky, bulky, filled with flashy ads and no substance, allows no customization, you can’t add your own games, you can’t run it on Linux, and our games will always assume you’re trying to pirate or hack even when we know you just bought the game. Switch over now! You’ll love it!

We're Watching Facebook Die (www.wheresyoured.at)

In the first quarter of 2024, Meta made $36.45 billion dollars - $12.37 billion dollars of which was pure profit. Though the company no longer reports daily active users, it now uses another metric: “family daily active people.” This number refers to “registered and logged-in users of one or more of Facebook’s Family...

Once upon a time, after growth companies would shift from a growth stock to a stable stock. Instead of telling wall street “you can make money here” it would mean “you can keep your money relatively safe here”. We apparently don’t do that anymore. Seems like it would have been perfect for them.

For sure, they don’t know how to be a stable revenue, or how to retain users. So we get this clusterfck

Can I refuse MS Authenticator?

So my company decided to migrate office suite and email etc to Microsoft365. Whatever. But for 2FA login they decided to disable the option to choose “any authenticator” and force Microsoft Authenticator on the (private) phones of both employees and volunteers. Is there any valid reason why they would do this, like it’s...

Hey now, this doesn’t fit with our narrative of the evil evil company here. Get this out of here! Just because it’s a 2FA app doesn’t negate that it’s microshitz!

Problem with all of these solutions is replication and standing back up in case everything crashes. I had that issue running fma and lxcs with apps on proxmox, it’s a ton of overhead with proxmox.

Ultimately it’s just easier to run docker on a VM and back up that one VM, or even easier the docker volumes. If anything crashes I just take that and spin the containers back up

Furiosa's Box Office Opening Explained: What The Hell Happened With The Mad Max Prequel?! (screenrant.com)

Furiosa’s opening weekend numbers have been a point of discourse for many trades after its release. As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Furiosa slumped to a $26 million gross between Friday, May 24, and Sunday, May 26. However, Furiosa was released over the Memorial Day weekend, taking its estimated domestic total to...

I feel like most people think that too, yet the studios keep insisting.

I love marvel and Star wars. Doesn’t mean that’s the only thing I want to watch. Hire more writers and make what they suggest ffs

I forgot Awards existed (poptalk.scrubbles.tech)

I just got this email from Reddit, and I just realized it’s been a year now since I swapped over here, and I haven’t thought about awards once. I always thought they were gimmicky and a way for people to throw away money. It’s just really nice not worrying about them....

scrubbles,
@scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech avatar

Only thing I can come up with since they own the currency and the value of the currency is profit. Their biggest supporters are probably already spending a ton on awards and they don’t want this to cut into their profit too much.

I was in a parking lot in a more rural area of my state last weekend, and I just had long modded pickup trucks filling every single compact spot. The worst part is that there were no compact cars and those were the only places left. So you kind of feel why they had to park there, except I had to drive into oncoming traffic just to get around them. I’m sick of these giant cars in this stupid culture we have where you have to drive everywhere

Neat, so it’s this a full replacement to auto1111? Is there a docker image?
