I know it’s a joke, but, for someone with the conviction to live true to themselves against all the disgust in the world out there right now, owning your own hardware and saying fuck you to corporations seems like a pretty easy choice along those lines lol.

And the lead dev of PS5 linux just walked out cause of slop kiddies

Why would I want to play any of those games that actively harm the gaming industry as a whole through their predatory and addictive designs and that foster the most toxic of communities?

Also, Genshin works via Proton or Lutris. So, image is wrong too lol.

Destiny 2 wasn’t as bad as the others imo, still very predatory with microtransactions though. But, Marathon is the “better” version according to their owners, right?

The fingers tho

We’re good at providing guidance to solutions when we openly discuss the problems. We can also often provide direct solutions too. (Just look at the modding community, constantly fixing and optimizing games…for free.)

And users, for sure, are good at finding problems…because they use the thing. (Keep paying less for QA and users will find more problems 🤷‍♂️)

We’re just focused on providing/delivering a quality experience and centering people and the art.

They don’t often center making more profit and reducing headcount.

So yeah, to a producer, we don’t offer any solutions that please their upper management.

But the whole point of a producer is to understand what the users want, even if they don’t know it, and articulate it into the production. I know my body and my symptoms, but I can’t treat myself because I’m not a doctor.

So is he really just saying he doesn’t like his job?

Yup, and I asked him at least 5 times if he believes that why is he not only on Lemmy, but moderates his own community on what he calls “commie garbage.”

He ran away every single time.

Dude tried to argue with me that ECC memory is why windows is better.

Yes, he’s that stupid.

He kept trying to argue that anything open source is “commie garbarge.”

You can see me completely destroy all of his arguments and he runs away like the MAGA bitch he is. Pathetic.

Hello all, fellow convert this year. My entire household is on one distro or another. Spreading the gospel to family and friends of course.

Oh look, it’s Madthumbs, moderator and owner of the linuxsucks community.

A) what problems are you referring to?

B) DRM free already solves a lot of it for digital titles. Sony, Microsoft, etc are entirely uninterested in that. They wouldn’t be able to pull them from your library if so.

C) Removing physical media completely kills a used market. Dead Space is $20 on disc, $70 on the Sony store. Sony doesn’t want you to think about that though. Sharing becomes nearly impossible. Ironic, considering Sony’s stance for the PS4

The biggest thing is simply this: physical media offers protections from corporate abuse/greed. If digital media wasn’t abused by corporations, we wouldn’t have this issue. Physical media done correctly makes most of those abuses impossible. And, unfortunately, we can’t trust closed source corporations not to abuse us when money can be made. So without a forcing function through legislation, physical media is that forcing function/protection.
