  • This is where I’m at. I played remake on my steam deck and I won’t buy a console to play it our any other exclusives.

    I really appreciated that they started releasing games on PC too but waiting a couple years is annoying. I greatly enjoyed zero dawn, and am finally enjoying forbidden west but having to wait years was annoying (not enough to get a ps5 though, and if they choose to never release it on PC I would just never play it ever).

    Right now I’m also waiting for Ragnarok since God of war was great. But again I’m not buying a ps5 so I’ll be waiting until it comes to PC if it does at all.










  • I think the issue here is more that interacting with certain companies or services is unavoidable. As an Android user I often will have to interact with iPhone users and the impact of their vendor lock-in techniques is that the experience of those interactions is worse on both sides.

    I can’t convince every person to stop using an iPhone, or even just just a different messaging app, most people can’t even agree what to have for dinner…

    So users that take it upon themselves to try and improve the experience by trying things like beeper or beeper mini are actually trying to help others maintain their choices and preferences without the degraded experience.

    So sometimes a person voting with their dollars isn’t enough, since it’s others choices that still have an impact





  • So it doesn’t affect me at all but may I ask why you wouldn’t decide to vote for an independent, or the republican party.

    Really you should vote for whomever most closely aligns with your governing preferences. Ultimately if you dislike the platform of every party, then it should be a decision about which most closely aligns with what you’re looking for.

    If you were deciding what to eat it doesn’t really matter if you don’t like the options, eventually you have to choose something or someone else will choose for you.

    Again I’m not endorsing any party or platform, I don’t care about how you choose to cast your vote. I just think that everyone should vote, even if it doesn’t align with my preferences or voting choices, which again I’m not saying I endorse any party specifically.



  • Respectfully, I think you’re misunderstanding my comments. It’s anyone’s right to hate how or who anyone else voted for. But not voting at all and getting upset with the outcome is your own fault.

    Any person should be encouraging every other person that they know to exercise their right to select an official. Ignoring that right because you feel it’s futile or because your super sure what you want will happen is a breakdown in democracy.

    I don’t really care who or how anyone votes but they all should be doing it.
