I mean, I think it’s fine as a gimmick for wealthy gamers, and it’s been at that level for awhile.
As the future of gaming though? yeah, never gonna happen. M+KB is the best controlling scheme for tons of the genres I play, and controllers are great for a bunch of others. There’s actually not that many genres that are improved by full body motion tracking, they’re pretty much all first-person games, and they often turn a relaxing gaming session into a workout. It’s not that the technology isn’t there, it’s that the concept it’s fundamentally flawed.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you think Trump will fall because of the new Epstein emails?English
451·4 days agoThe issue is that anyone with a functioning prefrontal cortex has known he’s a pedophile since at least 2016, when it was released that he would regularly walk into the changing rooms at the child beauty pageants he would sponsor.
This whole controversy has really just been about desperately hoping the MAGA crowd would accept a single fact in their life if maybe it didn’t come from mainstream media. The issue that I see is that the right-wing propaganda machine has completely given up on getting the Epstein files released. They’re not gonna cover it, they’ll call it a fake news attack by the Democrats, and that’s the last thought the MAGA crowd will have on it. There was a very brief moment where they did care earlier this year, but Trump and specifically Mike Johnson have successfully delayed long enough.
the other issue is even if somehow it did break through and galvanized the MAGA base against Trump… so what? Trump has already made it abundantly clear he doesn’t give a fuck about his base, the law, rules and norms, or really anything beyond consolidating his power and acting like a king. Would that base actually go so far as to vote Democrat in the midterm elections a year from now? Would they vote Democrat in 2028, assuming we even have free and fair elections by then? would they even still remember? at the end of the day, I think they hate the mythical idea of “The Left” that they’ve been sold too much to ever actually fight alongside us, so hoping the J6 crowd would try to actually save democracy this time is absurd.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Delivery people of Lemmy: Do you judge customers?English
4·6 days agoI dunno who needs to hear this, but minimum wage workers do not care about you. They don’t have the time or energy to judge you over silly stuff. If you make a minor faux pas, they might chuckle about it for a couple seconds at most, and then they have to get back to work.
In my experience working a few different fast food jobs, the only customers I still remember are the ones who were incredibly rude assholes or straight up threatened my life. If someone was generally friendly and came in like 10-12 times a month, I would maybe remember their name. Typically though, the only thing that was on my mind was making it through my shift, and trying to figure out what food I could steal so I could eat dinner that night.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.ca•Whays the closest thing to drinkable pizza?English
3·6 days agookay but let’s go in a different direction: how would you make drinkable pizza? what’s the line for drinkable, because I think consistency-wise it’d have to be close to bread pudding. what kinda cheese could you use?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Lemmings over 30 who try to stay active, what are you doing to accommodate for your incredibly decrepit bodies to avoid boo-boos?English
4·7 days agoI haven’t quite hit thirty yet, but my friend has. She’s taken up boxing, which might seem counterintuitive, but building up your strength is a great way to avoid having a weak core and knees. It also means she does regular stretching.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How to create a black market for films, art, and other things in the future?English
7·7 days agoYou’ve basically reinvented torrenting, but the first step of that is you need to save local copies of that art to your machine. Once you have it, peer to peer sharing will be the only vector for distributing it.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•[US] What happens when the government shuts down, and if it stays down, what do we do?English
25·9 days agoThe U.S. balkanizing is what I expect to occur sometime in the next few decades. Divisions have just grown so strongly that there already are functionally a few different Americas, even if we’re still bound together for now.
In terms of the current shutdown though, I suspect it will last through Thanksgiving, and we will see the mother of all air traffic catastrophes. Multiple high profile crashes, tons of airports fully shutdown, lots of airspace shutdown, all amidst one of the busiest travel times of the year. Afterwards, there will be enough pressure to get the Reps to agree to a clean continuing resolution, which will fund the govt through January, and then we’ll do the whole song and dance again.

Gaming@beehaw.org•‘We had to stop focusing on those who hated us’: Ubisoft says it won the battle against Assassin’s Creed Shadows backlash [VGC]English
3·9 days agohe also 100% existed lol. Yasuke has tons of historical records about him because he didn’t exist in like ancient Japan, he was the bodyguard of Oda Nobunaga during the Sengoku era. like you said, racists are just idiots and can’t stand actual history that goes against their stupidity.
how on earth were you doing that? do you have a Linux phone?

Gaming@beehaw.org•‘We had to stop focusing on those who hated us’: Ubisoft says it won the battle against Assassin’s Creed Shadows backlash [VGC]English
3·10 days agoYeah none of those reasons were why people hated Shadows though. It was entirely racists. They aren’t gonna make any more improvements to their formula because Ubisoft doesn’t innovate, they’ll just wait for someone else to add an interesting twist to the open world formula and then steal that.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Finally switched my fiancee to bazzite, fuck me was it a trialEnglish
2·12 days agoclosed source instead of open source nvidia driver.
This is where the problem really began. though afaik, you can get a version of the bazzite distro with the closed source nvidia drivers already installed, so did you select a different one? Nvidia gave me nothing but issues when I was trying to migrate to Linux though. Ever since I switched to AMD, it’s been smooth sailing.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Are you still friends with any of your exes?English
6·13 days agoIt’s actually my entire friend group rn lol. One of my exes from high school has been my best friend for 10 years. I made up with my ex I dated during college after a super messy break-up and now we hang out and watch anime together. Recently, I had a very short term long distance fling with a guy I met on here, and we still chat about gaming and politics and shit on Discord multiple times a week.
I’ve definitely had messy and bad relationships that were just unsalvageable, but I really don’t like throwing people away after I’ve shared a bunch of my life with them. The only weird part is how many of my friends have seen me naked.

These are not the bastions of freedom that you seem to think they are.
What if we did this, but instead of Netflix it was my home collection of pirated anime and horror films?
turns out the secret to being attractive is to have a great ass, who’d have guessed?

Cybersecurity@sh.itjust.works•I'm a cyber major, but what should I minor in?English
9·20 days agoIt’s not going to sound fun, but if you’re looking for something useful that will bolster your application, the answer for all compsci degrees is business.



I did! The outcome has been that I go to the gym now lol, these days about 2-4 times a month depending on how I feel. I was trying to chase the dragon of a tight tummy for the first six months and was regularly going 3 times a week, but slowed down once I realized that my bloating probably has other causes.
