    It's a thing for every streaming app. You don't get to chose what to see even if you pay.

    Try to find a music streaming service that isn't shited up with podcasts and audiobooks.

    User controlled streaming is not available for any price. The only way is to yohoho and plex it yourself.

    If the aggregation site publishes enough of the news story within the aggregation site itself that the reader never follows the link the news site never gets a chance to show them ads.

    This whole problem is rooted in the idea that the internet should be paid for by corporate propaganda, so I don't shed a tear for anyone on either side of this.

    Let me pay $5 a year for a login and give me an rss feed for your news network. I am now the customer and not a sack of attention that you're using a minimum viable product to sell to your corporate owners. It's a win win.

  • [Discussion] What games are you playing on your deck? - August 2023
  • wagesof wagesof Now 100%

    Nova Drift is a great asteroids rogue like.

    Castlevania IV from the advance collection (and it's frustrating AF) trying to do all of the classic castlevanias but I may hang this one up and move on. I feel like I spend more time fighting the controls than the platforming.

    About two hours into Chained Echos after finishing Cosmic Star Heroine. I always have to have a jrpg going.

    Agreeing with you, but if you want to try android with a controller try a gamevice flex. Works with cases, has actual pd charging passthru and no bluetooth delay.

    I evaluated 10+ controllers and nobody online even talks about the flex but I have found it to be the absolute best one.

    Play pikmin 4 and totk on the steam deck. Its hilarious that one of the top 3 consoles is emulated on a pc with integrated graphics.

    You don't like gaming. Stop doing it for a while and maybe your mind will care about it again.

    Are they really 7nm chips tho? They do love to brand shit as other shit.

    Wait until these end up in phones and have the power performance of 11nm stuff.

    I'm already 90% done with YouTube since their discovery feature is totally broken. A feed with 40 videos, 25 of which I've already watched 5 that are right wing outrage porn and literally nothing I want to watch at all?

    I have a few subscriptions that are on floatplane, nebula or peertube already that's pretty much all I watch on YouTube since it's so enshittified.

    I'd happily pay for premium if yt would unfuck their suggestions, but if they decide to lock out adblock instead I'm totally gone.

    Yes, get an ssd first. The 64g version doesn't just have small storage size but it has slow storage type.

    It's absolutely worth the $20 to get at least a 128g 2230 nvme disk, and 1tb can be had for within $10 of a same size SD card.

  • Many people have, like me, realized that they use their deck more than their main rig. For the last few years I've gone from 1080p to 1440p to 4k to 800p and don't think my main box will need to get beefier until the next big VR advancement. My machine is already three years old. I may rock it for another three at this pace. How many of you will be laying off of CPU/GPU upgrades since handheld are so compelling?
