  • DVDs are the new vinyl records: Why Gen Z is embracing physical media

  • What? VHS is perfectly fine. I don't even have a color TV

    This is how you sound BTW. 4k or even 1080p is objectively better than DVDs' 480p. There is no reason to still use them other than cost or being a contrarian.

  • We're just scanning for the bear...

  • Microsoft claims "2026 is the moment" for AI PCs, but its essay-length beginner explanation only creates more confusion — Is it any wonder adoption is slow?

    Jump

  • No hard drive and no GPU is trivial.

    No RAM is harder, but I guess it's possible if you use an SSD or magnetic tapes as memory (albeit extremely slow).

  • great feature xD

  • The right of being a billion dollar corporation.

  • Jokes aside, the fact that Wine defaults to mounting your entire drive to the fake Windows environment is a major security issue. This whole project is a very impressive engineering feat but the user experience is so bad it can have disastrous consequences.

  • Useless feature. Searching for any error will lead you to Microsoft's support forums, where a so-called MVP told someone with the same problem as you to run sfc /scannow then closed the thread as resolved.

  • Days after cancelling their Linux-compatible mod loader, Nexus Mods announces that they're bringing SteamOS support to Vortex

    Jump

  • NexusMods was always trash. They require an account to download mods, but their registration form regularly breaks for months at a time.

  • Remedy steps in to defend Epic Games after Larian developer says the publisher caused Alan Wake 2 sales to suffer

    Jump

  • systemd doesn't violate the UNIX philosophy. Just like coreutils, it's a project with many programs with a single responsibility.

    Also, the UNIX philosophy isn't law, and many useful programs do not follow it.

  • No reason apart from Linux support, workshop, remote play, Steam Input, excellent customer support... You can hate Valve as a corporation all you want, but Steam is objectively the better platform, by a mile.

    >inb4 but on gog you actually own your games

    This is false, as stated by their ToS.

  • Sony’s TV business is being taken over by TCL

    Jump

  • Android TV is absolute garbage. It's horrible to use with a remote, is full of ads, and is somehow sluggish on a 1.5GHz quad core.

  • I only watch extraterrestrial TV.

  • You can count past 1,000 on your fingers by using binary, instead of just 10

  • He is always right.

    Except for that one time.

  • it's just the worst

  • Same as systemd, PipeWire, Wayland, Flatpak... basically, it's new therefore it is bad.
