That sounds so weird that I want to try it.

DireTech ,

Yeah....don't watch Grave of the Fireflies if you think this was bad. Futurama has drinking and other adult topics, surely a Ghibli film is safe.....right?

Go test drive some cars that aren't Teslas. None of them require phone apps. Pretty sure all the manufacturers are also walking back the touch screen nonsense and I think Kia is the best in the US right now for EVs with physical buttons.

DireTech OP ,

Sure, side by side pictures is obvious, but when running around playing the game? Nah.

The performance hit feels like going from 2k to 4k but that resolution jump is super obvious in comparison.

I won’t turn it down if they get it down to a negligible hit but that’s at least a decade away at the rate they’re going.

Going super old school - Chrono Trigger. Finally picked it up on Steam since $3.75 is cheap enough I'd pay for the convenience to not use an emulator. I figure buying it 3 times is enough for one life.

You joke, but I’d totally be down with an update that integrates better graphics technology and reduces modding issues. Ive played through it half a dozen times in VR and 2d and there’s still plenty of content I haven’t done. Only issue I have these days is the small pool of voice actors so every 5th person has the same voice.

TexMex though really it stretches from southern California to Texas. Good tortillas alone are amazing but throw in beans and some kind of slow cooked meat like green chile pork and it’s perfect!

Sure, you can make an AI without stealing but all the major ones have done it. At this point, the burden of proof is on the LLM to prove they did not steal.

They're required to have some method of payment that doesn't involve additional fees. Ironically, it's usually the method that involves the most work for their employees.

Amazon Artificially Discounting Items $0.01 Below the Free Shipping Limit

Amazon gives non-Prime members free shipping at $35 or more of eligible items. Instead of simply letting users get the product with free shipping, they've added a discount that prices it exactly one cent below the $35 limit, while only subsidizing the price with $3.38, which is about half of what they'll then charge you for ...

That happened years ago. Better search and more trustworthy sellers since products aren't co-mingled. No way is some seller with years of positive reviews going to send you broken junk and not try to make it right.

DireTech ,

Why do you need to wait for GW2 to get verified? I’ve been playing it on deck for over a year.

DireTech ,

Only thing I felt was the shot to numb me before they cut. Some tenderness afterward but all in all I’ve had worse pain stubbing my toe.

DireTech ,

And then Square repeated it with FFXV. Whole time I was like why do I care about this villain? Apparently you had to play some side game or read a story to understand why you were meant to care.

DireTech ,

Wow did not know about that. Guess I’ll stick to KH1 and 2.

DireTech ,

Fallout New Vegas with Viva Las Vegas. Plays great.

DireTech ,

Definitely not supporting their quality, but a ton of the wtf designs are because of legacy customers paying millions to have it.
