xep@kbin.socialto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Steam Deck game library now 29% larger than that of Nintendo Switch34·2 years agoIt’s quite a lot more than that if you count all the titles that work but aren’t verified, I imagine!
xep@kbin.socialto Games@sh.itjust.works•Gamers Are Becoming Less Interested in Games With Deep Strategy, Study Finds583·2 years agoMy favourite journalistic practice is when outlets lump up everyone playing video games into a single group called “gamers.”

I’m nearly there, except I can’t get away from Google Maps. There’s not really any alternative here that provides public transport information.
xep@kbin.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Chip Enjoyers - What's your favourite brand/type of chip?7·2 years agoI came here to make this joke but with the 68000, but you beat me to it, so here’s to the atmega328.
xep@kbin.socialto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Obesity is morally wrong and should be illegal in my opinion2·2 years agoIt’s deletorious to your health to be obese, so at the very least it is definitely a health hazard to the person. Making it illegal would be highly problematic though. How would you enforce the law? Would an obese person be forced by the state to go to a correctional facility? What kind of person would be classified obese?

Turns out it doesn’t matter that much now, I barely write anything at all. When I do, though, it’s a horrible scrawl, although I don’t know if it’d be the same had I been left to my own devices.
xep@kbin.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•MIT-educated brothers accused of stealing $25 million in cryptocurrency in 12 seconds in Ethereum blockchain scheme69·2 years agoBut Code is Law! It’s decentralized and trustless, I’m really disappointed with the victims for going to big government, with cryptocurrency there’s no need for government, lawyers, or banks. The blockchain clearly already decided that the ETH belongs to the two brothers.
xep@kbin.socialto News@lemmy.world•U.S. to Announce New Tariffs on Chinese Electric Vehicle - Considering rates of 100%34·2 years agoWhat-aboutism is amazing, isn’t it? There’s a response for everything.

With Xiaomi, you’re looking at a two week or more wait to unlock the bootloader. I wouldn’t recommend it.
xep@kbin.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Dell warns of data breach, 49 million customers allegedly affected15·2 years agoNow my friends know I bought an Alienware device. I’m never going to live this down.
xep@kbin.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Dell warns of data breach, 49 million customers allegedly affected302·2 years agoI know you’re being flippant, but it’s worth noting that there is a considerable difference between a company getting hacked like this and an app with unfettered access to the cluster to sensors that we’ve got in our pockets.
xep@kbin.socialto News@lemmy.world•Medical freedom vs. public health: Should fluoride be in our drinking water?2·2 years agoFor what it’s worth I live in a country where the drinking water isn’t flouridated. It’s not a problem and it’s certainly never made the news. I think easy availability of dental care, especially in schools since children tend to not be great at taking care of their teeth, is a bigger concern.

xep@kbin.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Drone maker DJI facing U.S. FCC ban — the national security risk and part China-state ownership are key issues131·2 years agoPerhaps “state managed” would be a better descriptor for Chinese private companies, since some now have personnel belonging to the CCP serving in management or board positions.
“Moral responsibility” isn’t going to affect the various amoral, systemic causes of the climate crisis.
