  • Looking for mellow covers of heavier music

    Jump

  • That was a very funny cover, thanks! Turns out Richard Cheese has a whole back catalogue I haven't heard of and some very funny album names too. Currently listening to Chop Suey from Tuxicity which is just delightful!

    Jump

  • This is a great album, thank you! Listened to Go With The Flow as you suggested and also No one Knows because I was especially curious about it. Looking forward to the rest of the album now!

  • Oh I do see that image of all the controllers! I was referring to this section, it seemed like I was missing something here:

    (you can see here the estimated tariff charge on the Retroid Pocket 5 from AliExpress – I found this image a user (No_Clock) posted which helps illustrate the cost you might expect)

  • Steam Deck / Gaming News #13

    Jump

  • I know these posts get a lot of love already but it's never enough, the effort that goes into each one is really appreciated! I feel like they add a lot of value to the community in terms of quality and activity so thanks!

    As for feedback on the posts themselves, I really like the way they're sectioned so they're easy to navigate. Of course not every topic is going to be relevant to everyone but it's easy enough to skip to the next section. The gifs are also great, I find they add so much like in the Expedition 33 example and they're not overused.

    I think by the way that there's an image about tariffs missing in the 8BitDo section? Either that or it's not loading for me!

  • “You wouldn’t steal a car” anti-piracy campaign may have used pirated fonts

    Jump

  • Did the western world just suddenly go back to pretending wrestling is "real" for some reason?

    Jump

  • I remember liking that video the first time I saw it. If I remember correctly though, the creator of that video had quite a few sexual abuse allegations against him and I wasn't really into it after that came to light.

  • Urban Water Resistant Backpacks made in Prague | Braasi

    Jump

  • I saw they have two bags that are updated versions of existing models but now developed with AI and more expensive. I'm genuinely curious what "developed with help of AI" means here though - is it just a gimmick?

  • Fabric softener is a scam

    Jump

  • I bought a Leaf Razor from an EU reseller about a year ago now and it was a game changer for head shaving with safety razor blades.

    The head of the handle pivots so it's very difficult to cut myself with it accidentally unlike the regular handle I was using before.

    I'm hesitant to share a link because I don't want to seem like a shill for a company I don't know much about but just wanted to say there are options out there!

  • Battle Chess - ADG Episode 336

    Jump

  • Yep that's the original!

  • Striking New York Times tech workers ask people not to play Wordle or other NYT games

    Jump

  • Thanks for that replacement mini crossword recommendation, I’ve only done today’s but I really like it already!

  • Under Meredith Whittaker, Signal Is Out to Prove Surveillance Capitalism Wrong

    Jump

  • Just to add to this, I also like to use the “donate for a friend” option to gift friends a donation to Signal on their birthdays. It’s also $5 but a one-off thing, they get a neat badge for 60 days and perhaps it raises awareness of the donation option a little bit!

  • The music control Decky plugin (and possibly some other plugins) is causing Steam OS to not load properly and should be uninstalled.

    Jump

  • Thanks a lot for sharing this! Decky plugins often break after a Steam OS update, which is understandable, but a bootloop is more trouble than I’m looking for right now…

  • Nightmare Kart for Steam Deck

    Jump

  • Thanks for the heads-up! For anyone that’s confused like I was, turns out this is the same game as Bloodborne Kart, just changed enough for legal purposes. Considering it started out as an April Fool’s joke, it seems really high quality so far and I’m appreciating all the Bloodborne references!

  • Oui

    Jump

  • Could you accept a world where someone does it intentionally as a joke?

  • How is it possible for this track to have so few plays on Spotify?

    Jump

  • It seems that Spotify doesn't accurately count plays for tracks under 30 seconds. I had a look through some of the albums I know of with short tracks and here's what I found:

    In fact I found the MGMT album 11​•​11​•​11 has a 26 second long track with no reported plays.

    So while it's probably true that people are listening to fewer full albums than they used to in the days of vinyl or CD, it seems more likely to do with Spotify only paying royalties on tracks over 30 seconds and the discussion surrounding that.

  • Capcom caught adding Enigma DRM to older titles, for no good reason

    Jump

  • I’m glad this is being brought up. As the article mentions, one of the affected games was the Ghost Trick remaster which received a 5.6GB update with no explanation. It was only through data mining that people realised Denuvo was removed in favour of Enigma.

    The worst part for me is that Enigma lives up to its name and people have been left guessing about where it’s coming from. Some people think it’s Capcom’s in-house DRM while others are linking it to some Russian company with the same name that Capcom may have partnered with.

    As I understand, this DRM has already been cracked so it’s not even stopping people who want to pirate the game. On the other hand, I love Ghost Trick and I wanted to buy gift copies for some friends over Christmas but this move really put me off.

  • Yeah I’m not sure if they’re in a different region or something but Slay the Spire is also definitely not < $2 for me - I wish it was!

  • What Film Are You Surprised Didn't Get A Sequel?

    Jump

  • You’re right about the sequel being announced but do you have a link to the trailer? The only videos and articles I can find still seem to be speculative.
