SSD capacity could quadruple by 2029 — 8Tb NAND will bring big and affordable SSDs to the market in c/technology@lemmy.world

Honestly, nowadays a 100Gb game is small. Games are easily 200+ for the AAA section.

Why would they though? They profit just the same from the high prices.

Zig vs Rust. Which one is going to be future? in c/programming@programming.dev

Unless Zig starts its own cult, I feel Rust will win in the end.

Why do Counterstrike and the other top 10 games on Steam NEVER change? in c/games@lemmy.world
[–] lorty@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago

Yes, not only many people still play the same games for 10 years, but also spend most of their gaming time in them. There's a reason why a new live service game is both a gold mine and also incredibly difficult to stick.

On the Future of Commander (WotC taking over management of the format, considering adding more concrete power level rankings) in c/mtg@mtgzone.com
[–] lorty@lemmy.ml 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Welp, guess WotC finally got the opportunity to take over their most popular format. I expect this to be terrible in the long run, but the RC made the finance bros mad, so what can you do.

Reddit is making sitewide protests basically impossible in c/technology@lemmy.world

Many subs did that, so reddit substituted the mods for others that do as they are told.

I make games and this literally happened to me this morning in c/games@lemmy.world

For every streamer that makes minimum wage there are dozens that make so little they don't even get paid.

Yugoslavia certainly doesn't think so.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your analogy but how was Hillary better than Bernie?

Can't seem to find a definite answer for this...

Today, I left windows behind for good (lemmy.ml)
 

I did it. For a few years now I've wanted to make the jump but lazyness and a bit of worry that my main game wouldn't work very well kept me from it.

Then some effing windows update caused ridiculous stuttering on games (or maybe it was a auto-update of some other hidden thing, I couldn't figure it out) so I decided that if I needed a system wipe, might as well as try gaming on linux.

Honestly? Much easier than I expected. Install Steam, turn two options on and 90% of your library is ready to go. I had to tinker with getting freesync to work (ended up just switching to wayland, which just worked) but other than the plugins I use for my main game requiring a bit of more work, smooth as butter really.

So yeah, if you are a lazy gamer like I am, next time you do a system wipe or get a new computer, try installing linux first. Don't even bother Dual booting it, if you don't like it just reinstall (setup your usb drive with ventoy and the images you want to try out.)

Why does every REST testing software want me to login? (lemmy.ml)

As a capable but lazy user, how much would switching to Arch frustrate me? (lemmy.ml)
 

I know my way around a command line. I work in IT, but when it comes to my personal fun time more often than not I'm quite lazy. I use windows a lot because just plugging in anything or installing any game and it just working is great.

But support for windows 10 is ending and I should probably switch sonner rather than later, so I'm wondering if Arch would be a good pick for me? For reference, I mostly game and do Godot stuff in my free time.

Do you guys actually move aroung your ascended gear to play your alts? (lemmy.ml)
 

Seems like too much work to me, so I started getting duplicate pieces just to save the hassle, but a few guildies said I was crazy.

Am I the only one who's sick of the isekai? (lemmy.ml)
 

Yeah it was fun in the beginning, after all who never thought about being transported to another world where you ate a big hero with swords and magic?

But what the hell, I'm pretty sure there's more isekai now than other genres/settings. It's gotten to a point that if I see the tag I just move on.
