Only if you’ve never bought a game on Steam before. I don’t think I’ve paid over $10 for anything.

“I am sure this overpriced plastic trinket will fill the meaningless void in your finite life” 🤣

Shit I think I may need to go play through the Portal games again.

(HL3 tease at the end)

ALSO WHAT

When they priced the controller at $99 I immediately suspected it would be part of a bundle deal for “a $99 value!”

Also WOW that cube is so much more than just a dbrand skin. That’s amazing.

I’m convinced hardly anybody on Lemmy has a functioning theory of mind.

Even at double the cost of a normal console, once you factor in the cost of games it comes out ahead. And hopefully the RAMpocalypse will end eventually.

still nope

nope not that company

Bitwarden is so worth it

I think this is pretty clever, kind of like the old Popcorn Time app for YouTube.

I’ve seen that but it’s a weird vibe coded app and doesn’t actually work

ShelfMark is the go-to option now. It’s also far better than Readarr was and works seamlessly with both Prowlarr and Anna’s Archive.

I think CWA is the most robust option out there. BookLore was vibecoded and behaved in the typical weird/unexpectedly way vibecoded apps tend to. I haven’t tried the Fork of it, but CWA checks nearly all the boxes and is actively developed.

I wish ABS synced progress between formats with KOReader!

It was clearly about how marijuana makes your children communist

IIRC those updates were a series of bugfixes after a major update, which seems to be how they prefer to work.

Your vent was good and justified

No love lost for IBM but I still wouldn’t expect to see casually mentioned alongside Palantir.

Wow I went to fact check that claim and it’s actually no exaggeration. Here is the AP article.

Google and Amazon provide cloud computing and AI services to the Israeli military under “Project Nimbus,” a $1.2 billion contract signed in 2021, when Israel first tested out its in-house AI-powered targeting systems. The IDF has used Cisco and Dell server farms or data centers. Red Hat, an independent IBM subsidiary, also has provided cloud computing technologies to the Israeli military, while Palantir Technologies, a Microsoft partner in U.S. defense contracts, has a “strategic partnership” providing AI systems to help Israel’s war efforts.

Crazy to see Palantir, Google, Microsoft mentioned alongside …Red Hat.

Anytime someone anywhere on the political spectrum uses the word “woke” without also defining what the fuck it’s supposed to mean I just cannot take them seriously.
