My point is this is a larger problem of capitalism and just supporting companies that don’t do this doesn’t always work. The gaming industry is getting worse, and there will be less and less devs that actually don’t do this. And there will be less and less devs that are fiscally able to not do this. I have seen it happen time and time again.

You’re not understanding what I’m saying. This is them testing the waters. All companies that are publicly traded will continue to do whatever they can to make a profit. Consumer be damned. I don’t buy AAA games, but it doesn’t change the fact that changes like this will propagate across the gaming industry and make it worse as a whole. The issue here is them trying to turn a profit for shareholders no matter what. So many of these companies are prioritizing making a profit why they happen to release games and not vice versa. That is a result of the last stage unregulated capitalism we have in America and those same tendencies that they’ve propagated to the global economy.

Don’t be so naive to say “just don’t buy it bro.” I won’t. It doesn’t really affect me that much RIGHT NOW. But it might, the more they’re legally allowed to and the more they get away with the more everyone will do it. It happened with DLC’s, then releasing unfinished games, in game purchase in games you have to buy, etc. God forbid I don’t want the entirety of AAA gaming to be a pile of shit. It’s time for lawmakers to step in in this industry and most others and put limits on what type of things companies can do to make a profit. And this goddamn law that companies must do everything they can to turn a profit for their shareholders must be done away with.

It’s only a matter of time before this leaks into all AAA games, I hate capitalism.

I wouldn’t fuck with it either, Nintendo is fucking ruthless

WiFi repeaters are not a great way to extend WiFi range and will def get you slower network speeds. So that’s probably why

I really miss Google’s original mesh router setup, it was so painless, almost plug and play. But of course, they bought a company and it got absorbed by their nest mesh system, which is more expensive and from what I understand more annoying. And now their old WiFi routers are in support limbo.

But if they can set up a repeater, I feel like they can setup a mesh system. I was able to do it through my Asus app on my phone pretty quickly. The only issue I had was with a used router I got off eBay being finicky about reliably remembering it’s mesh setup once it had been unplugged. Something wrong with the cmos or something.

Oops, fixed, cut me some slack I was half asleep and I had an edible last night lol. And some of those Asus gaming routers do look like mechs haha

I would suggest a mesh router system rather than a repeater. A lot of Asus’s modern routers can be added to their mesh system, Netgear has a good system as well

Are you downloading hvec content? Because if so that buffering is because of transcoding maxing out your cpu or GPU not network

YES. I’VE BEEN WAITING SO LONG

GOD YES

A few stars recently have died in their sixties from cancer, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was cancer unfortunately, but I of course have no idea myself.

We are reaching the limits of render technology with our current architectures. You’ll find that most established practices for computer hardware/software/firmware started as a “cheat” or weird innovation that began with using something in an ass backwards way. Reducing the amount of data a GPU needs to render is a good way to get more out of old and new hardware. It’s not perfected yet but the future of these features is very promising.

Thank you!

I mean, you could add Plex and then just disable playback if that’s not possible or until you find a way to do that

Ooh very nice, share that config file bro

There’s a place for the cloud and then there’s not, so many people host things on the cloud because they think that’s the thing to do, when, just like most other things in IT/dev work, there is a time and place to use the cloud.

Yes, again, thay is not the spoiler I’m talking about, I’m talking about a post thay specifically has a built in spoiler tag, like the NSFW tag
