  • Agreed, it may help to reframe this not as a competition for your boyfriends attention but maybe rather as meeting her will expand your friend group? I don’t think its weird for my partner to text with my friends, so maybe its worth it to see her, spend some time with her, and get to know a person your partner highly values.

    Definitely an optimistic viewpoint, but one that’s lead to my personal happiness with my partner.


  • So the dual trackpads are interesting. I use my right trackpad on my Steam Deck all the time for more mouse centric games. I appriciate that ZOTAC included them, but the execution is key here.

    Personally, I have two steam decks in my house and I’m extremely satisfies with them. I dont think a new handheld will make me switch until we get another generational improvemnt in terms of battery or power.

    I love that the market has so many options! Steam, Asus, Lenovo, MSI, Zotac, AYANEO, AYN, GPDWin, or even the chaper linux retro consoles! its fucking awesome. In a few years we’ll see who really sticks with it, but for now, we’re in a little handheld revolution. Enjoy it while we can.





  • That is SO fucking cool.

    The Shadow of Mordor games are pretty good turn your brain off action fun. But the tech behind it always blew my mind.

    (Slight spoilers)

    Like when you unlock the drake in the sequal and can fly over all the orc architecture or mountains, see anything that looks interesting and divebomb in. And it retains so much detail and fluidity during these transitions of gameplay and travel. I literally said last week that Shadow of Mordor is the best superhero game around, mainly because they truly capture that feeling of raw power and freedom.

    I guess this is why it kinda has that feel!



  • This actually opens an interesting debate.

    Every photo you take with your phone is post processed. Saturation can be boosted, light levels adjusted, noise removed, night mode, all without you being privy as to what’s happening.

    Typically people are okay with it because it makes for a better photo - but is it a true representation of the reality it tried to capture? Where is the line of the definition of an ai-enhanced photo/video?

    We can currently make the judgement call that a phones camera is still a fair representation of the truth, but what about when the 4k AI-Powered Night Sight Camera does the same?

    My post is more tangentially related to original article, but I’m still curious as what the common consensus is.
