Tbh for a broken clock Sweeney shows the right time remarkably often. Can’t believe it, the bar for people like him is so low just being consistent is noteworthy lol

Pull a lucha dragons on them, I’d pay to watch

Reminds me of car startups (in the US) taking off one wheel, turning them into moto/autocycles, so they wouldn’t have to go through expensive car certification processes

Sweeney is also offering a “peace proposal” from Epic: “If Apple extends the court’s friction-free, Apple-tax-free framework worldwide, we’ll return Fortnite to the App Store worldwide and drop current and future litigation on the topic.”

Pretty sure this has a 0% chance of working.

Can confirm, had a similar upbringing

Exactly, it’s an awful treadmill. EA as a whole was at nearly 60% profit last year. Coupled with layoffs, it seems they’re trying to keep that infinite spend as potential as possible lol

I just hope something good comes out of recent ex-rspn teams.

Afaik they’re still using awful third-party servers, lag compensation is still aggressive as fuck, they tried to “fix” visibility by slapping a bandaid in the form of healthbars, and the anticheat thing was another bandaid instead of a surgery. Overall it’s kinda stuck, all of the old issues are still there.

They have a shitload of new cosmetics though, if that’s your jam. Funnily enough, they were so greedy even esport orgs didn’t want to keep working with them. Rspn offered a one-time payment, orgs wanted a percentage of sales. Mind you, it’s a fairly big esport that advertises the game for them (btw played on better servers than available in-game).

Imagine making billions (with an S) off of one game and still calling it a miss. Chasing infinite growth is so dumb.

They have late-stage Israel syndrome.

Don’t ignore the fact those guys were hit with a load of ballistic and cruise missiles recently and did alright. Not to mention drones and rocket arty on the regular.
I do agree the US are wildly overspending in the era of disposable unmanned-everything though, and this one incident isn’t gonna change their ways.

Idk, most likely its region/class dependant because I had dumb phones, some very early androids, and an Athlon 64 3000+ pc and I’d call myself a zoomer

edit: before that I had some ancient family pc but it’s only relevance is getting me entertained, didn’t tinker with it or anything. Also my old phone’s 4.4 android was my favorite because it was polished enough while still letting you do dumb shit with it

Yeah, being dumb is hardware-agnostic. As some guy put it, “being stupid isn’t a big deal anymore; some of my best friends are stupid”.
It just stunlocks me a little bit as younger people have been around tech their whole life, unlike boomers, who were born before computers.

If you get an actual file explorer it’s fine. I’m using a fossilized asus one because I got used to it years ago.

ER has a 60 fps cap and it sold like crazy, nothing surprises me anymore

I bet it works well for when the sun is in your eyes, too.

Those are just as much of your surroundings as regular lights though

I’m sorry you found out this way. Prepare your preganante fund

From what I’ve seen it has a lil sidebar that lets you limit the resources available to it. Also a load of shortcuts to giveaways and storefronts. It’s also hideous, as all gamer stuff should be.

Honestly it gives me more “lowspec” vibes, than “gaming”, and there are far better ways to browse on low spec machines.

Funny, I had the opposite experience in Firefox, got myself a (configurable) auto discard addon. It even shows an icon next to discarded tabs, space age shit for chrome lol

To be fair there aren’t many reasons to use higher settings on paved roads. And the one in the picture looks like it’s set to the correct (off-road) height, doubt it’s gonna help tho

It’s really funny watching them add paid features that older, established messengers have for free
