Ocarina Remake, I already pre-ordered it and will pick it up tomorrow. Can’t wait to play it, well. After my mother played it for a few hours lol. I will not purchase GTA 6 since it is expensive, it is not on PC, and it is locked to 30 fps on PS5 (I have heard).

It depends, really. I usually just fiddle with PC (piracy, emulation and the like) but also game a lot (on PC) and recently got a Switch 2 with Mario Kart World (and tomorrow Zelda Ocarina Remake). If gaming does not satisfy my needs then I read, currently busy with Revenge Of Odessa and debating to start any of the Dostoyevsky books.

In the evening I usually settle down with tv series or anime. I have been binging a show called ‘’Dr.Bull 2016’’ and started the new season of Dexter Resurrection yesterday evening.

Socializing is not my thing, I’m really introverted and don’t really like people in general. I rather have alone time after spending 5 full days surrounded by people from work.

Sometimes I wonder why I’m still on Lemmy, the toxicity is pervasive and exceeds anything Reddit

Had the same thought before but then I realized, Lemmy’s blocking system is infinite. So block anyone who is immensely toxic. Win-win.

I fully agree with you.

I stated something similar a week ago or so and had one dude going nuts. I mean nuts;

• Spamming “fuck you” towards me.
• Saying I was bad at coding (he had no idea that I didn’t even care because, in fact I can’t code and never cared to learn).
• Saying my opinion does not matter (as if his opinion was superior lol).

No idea who the guy was, skimmed the comments and immediately blocked him. I thank Lemmy every day for having a infinite blocklist possibility.

Fair point. Though, I wouldn’t mind that either despite not being a smoker. We are just different and have different opinions and that’s okay.

Anyway, lets see where this Switch 2 emulation is going (or not). I’m curious what is going to happen, will Nintendo go madman again?

My point is; whether we want it or not, it will not suddenly disappear. It exists and it will always exists.

But anyway, keep being upset about everything related to AI. That will do good for your health, I suppose.

I don’t understand what the problem is. Without AI this process would’ve taken certainly much longer (longer than necessary).

You cannot escape AI, no matter how much you are against it. It is here and it will stay whether we like it or not.

If you don’t like it, don’t use it.

I for one am happy this is possible and has a very quick development.

Actually very recently…

I had been searching for a job, for a month and just wanted work. Accepted a job that’s kind of below my degree and what I can. Salary was pretty low and didn’t feel well with the interview.

But I just wanted have a job, you know? However, I did not sign anything yet.

A day later, I get called by a recruiter and mentioned he had a job offer. One I had been really trying to get. I took that opportunity, stalled the other job by not answering the email for the documents to sign.

A week later and surprisingly got accepted by the other job! This job has better pay, better work, better opportunities and long term is just so much better for my CV, knowledge and self development.

So I called the recruiter of the previous job, the one I did not want. Explained in most polite way that I will still refuse it because I found something else which fits my long term plans better. Of course he was polite but not happy at all. I also emailed the company and the person mailed me back decently but notable disappointed.

Yeah, Denuvo DRM is definitely still a thing. In fact, they recently announced that they’re suing the anonymous person who is cracking their DRM. They rather sue a person or group that they don’t even know than actually getting their DRM better. Funny, isn’t it?

I know piracy does not have Denuvo; that’s why I love piracy as well. I mentioned Denuvo DRM because people who purchase the games legally still have to deal with it. Certainly, piracy is not risk-free, but if you follow the right guides, use your common sense, and have knowledge regarding technology, the risk is very minimal.

Honestly, I disagree. I will speak for myself, but I can stay busy, have a good time while pirating games, and keep the money for myself (perhaps spend it on something else). Sales or not, there’s still the whole issue with Denuvo DRM (at least for me) and sales are not what they used to be. I have had Steam for years too and only bought a few games and Wallpaper Engine. Not everyone keeps purchasing games on Steam and never play them.

I just think that piracy is the better option nowadays, economically (keeping money for yourself), ownership of the game(s), and not having to deal with Denuvo DRM.

If we do not own the games when we purchase them, then piracy is not stealing. Don’t want to give us ownership when we pay for it, okay. Pirate everything. Jailbreak the PlayStation, download the games, and put them on an HDD/SSD, whatever, and play them. That way, you own the game and can play whenever you want.

That said, I don’t think this sentiment of Sony is new. I think many companies have been doing the “you just get a license but don’t own the thing you purchased” thing for a long time. Sony is just currently the company that is getting the most attention for it.

It is why I always say, “Get a PC, learn to pirate everything, and purchase the software and games from independent developers (indies).”. That way, you own the software and the games while also supporting the developers that deserve it.

This way, you don’t have to worry about the whole “you don’t own the product” thing, keep money in your pocket, which is economically wiser in today’s times, and you can support the developers that deserve it.

Wait, what? I did not expect The Netherlands to sell these piece of shit stuff. I had hoped, it would be banned/ prohibited in The Netherlands. It should be.
