I’m sure it will be a totally ethical device that has no ability to nudify anyone it sees instantly.

Don’t give meta more money

This will be very exciting news for the currently deployed military folks stranded at sea, I’m sure they will be very happy about this /s

Thats what I mean though, she’s a whackadoo with potential sway over the leadership of the US, and has had that position since the first term. Mainstream media are supposed to be journalists, investigating and exposing the truth for the world to see. They all have privileged access to those in power, a front line view of the corruption as it unfolds, and they just ignored this lady the entire fucking time.

It exposes just how toothless and incompetent they are. I know a lot of us on here have known this for a long time, its not a surprise for us, but I guess I just hope that maybe the public might be able to make these connections themselves now that the info is exposed. I know thats probably a pipe dream, but gotta find hope somewhere these days.

Incredible that some politician had to mentioned her name and now suddenly journalists become journalists.

She’s been there before Trump and somehow the entirety of mainstream media just ignored her until this past month.

I would hope this would cause people to never trust these overpaid clowns again, but I know how stupid people are.

Not that I think he had much in the way of empathy prior to this, but he lacks a filter of any kind which is a symptom I had to repeatedly apologize for when my grandfather’s dementia got worse.

The dude has full on dementia, no one is doing anything and he will continue to degrade both himself and the reputation of anything associated with him as this keeps going.

Funnily enough, dipshit donny might be the best publically perceivable evidence of the need for reform we will ever get.

Most of these have been tried and we now have a new Gestapo rounding up minorities and letting them die in detention camps, while the rich bid on how they will redesign Gaza once the genocide is complete.

Nonviolent action has not stopped this regime, but one assassinated CEO has rippled changes in healthcare and made the epstein class scared. While I do advocate for nonviolence first, we are well beyond the point where violence isn’t reciprocal

Meta employees not unionizing at this point is their own fault. Like I feel for you, this situation is shit and its getting worse, but thats the thing, it has only ever gotten worse. Do something about it, fight for your rights, fight for the people you are harming with the work you submit to, fight for a future that isn’t dogshit run by a literal lizard person.

Your complaints don’t mean shit to the current govt, you need to take your fate into your own hands. Meta dies without you, you hold the power. Do you think the dude who made that company to creep on women really has the skills and ability to do your work?

This goes for all tech. Stop complaining about your work if you aren’t going to do anything about it. You are probably the only ones capable of saving enough money to survive a job loss in this country right now, stop licking boots and complaining about the flavor.

We live in a gatekept society. Bring the gates down

Surely this will have a bigger impact than ChilloutVR, Resonite, and Banter did.

Seriously though, I’d love to see a VRChat competitor, but the reality is unless you can easily support the same community content VRChat does, you won’t get your foot in the door. Worlds and Avatars need to be cross compatible, and if they aren’t then you lose.

Realistically need a better solution for refunds, especially for indie devs. 2 hours just isn’t enough time for shitty games to reveal themselves sometimes, but its also more time than some absolute gems take to beat.

People mentioned achievements, but thats unreliable as even I can spoof achievements on steam last I checked.

Valve can’t be expected to manage every refund request thoroughly, and devs can’t exactly be trusted to respect those requests if they were in charge of them being its literally losing money, but theres gotta be some way to reliably refund a customer without it being abused to harm an innocent dev.

Kaos for me. Will be pissed about that show being cancelled until I fucking die

Microsoft saw EA at the height of them being dogshit and decided they found their role model. Bet they win the worst company award

Until linux eclipses it, which its not far from doing. My gaming rig is the only windows device purely because of compatibility, but I’ll be moving platforms the moment linux gets like 95% compatibility

Ah yes, hire people right after laying a ton of people off, including those with cancer.

Tim Sweeney has got to be one of the worst business people I’ve seen, but unfortunately hes a good hype man and thats 99% of running a business these days

At this point, this is just the MS gaming pipeline.

Hilarious to hear Nadella whine about Xbox performance when he is directly responsible for it going to shit. 30% mandatory profit margins was a death sentence

GUI is definitely a big reason, but features as well. Epic could make their store snappy as hell and their GUI easier to use, but that doesn’t give us controller remapping, game recording, an overlay with a web browser, per game notes, per game news, community guides, baked in mod support, performance data overlay, controller centric mode (big screen mode), and god knows theres more I’m missing.

Personally, I’d put my money on GOG becoming the real competitor over time. GoG Galaxy feels absolutely better than Epic does, and the fact it integrates other storefronts is such a major benefit that it makes it at least capable of competing with steam in the long haul. If GoG Galaxy gained all the features Playnite has, it would easily be able to compete with Steam.

Steam’s “monopoly” is purely because none of their competitors bother with pro consumer updates.

I smell future competition

My money is on Ikea acquiring the leftovers to easily set up new locations lol

THEN STOP ELECTICING FOSSILS, THE DUDE WAS 80

Almost every US tech company uses chinese slave labor. Hell, Apple has lobbied repeatedly to make sure it doesn’t have to stop doing so.
