Ah. I didn't play it until a few months after release, so they just have cleaned it up in the meantime. Didn't Guerilla Games handle the port, themselves? Sounds like, yeah, they just needed a few more months to finish things up. They did fix this.

What happened with HZD? I played it on PC and it seemed pretty good to me. Was it just really taxing on older hardware?

How bad is it? I work with a few people on Starlink and their connections are night and day compared to the DSL they were previously on.

That I can't do because Amazon is dumb. Follow the link up above, click to see Others Sellers on Amazon and you'll find an the new headsets listed as belonging to other sellers, but are warehoused and asked by Amazon. Prices seem to take from $98-$110. I so hate Amazon.

Amazon lists a bunch of G533 headsets that they stock new in the $90 range. I don't know why they being so weird about how they're listing then, though.

Looks like the last used one Amazon has in stock is in Acceptable condition and not Like New. Sorry! Something went wrong! WWW.AMAZON.COM Every other one comes from some random third party. I hope I actually get the one I wanted. I ordered it through my corporate account. As much as I want this for gaming, like 80% of the use will be for drowning out the kids when they're running around and I'm in a meeting, but I didn't want TRUE nose cancellation because I do want to know if my oldest is trying to convince his sister she should totally dive off the fridge. Eh, if I don't get it, I'll just order new for the full price, but at that point there might be better options at $100. That said, even at $100 that's still a hell of a lot cheaper than the $350 headset I have at the office gathering dust. And no, that one would such to try to use at home. Sure, the range will reach my neighbors across the street, but the audio quality sucks and it has a ridiculous charging base.

On a flyer? No. I just grabbed a Like New one from Amazon Warehouse for like $50. I didn't really want to spend more than that and I've had really good experience with Logitech's 2.4Ghz wireless audio transmitter, so I figured I'd test out the cheapest 7.1 wireless set they made. Every company I've been to, I've made their H800 the standard as the cheap wireless headset I give folks working from home.

I guess I'm not the only one on the market. I just ordered a pair of G533. I wanted something wireless and these looked like they might be a good fit.

Good thing all my data on LinkedIn was already breached a thousand times previously.

Pretty much. Facebook announced years ago that, on its backend, they're all just going to be Facebook Messenger. Zuckerberg Plans to Integrate WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook Messenger - The New York Times WWW.NYTIMES.COM Facebook’s chief executive has asserted control over its sprawling divisions and mandated the social network’s messaging services be knitted together. Facebook imagines a world where Facebook users can message WhatsApp users that can private message Instagram users. The data for its users will look the same to Facebook, regardless of the platform there coming in from, and that's why each platform's EULA was updated as such. The cool part is that this means the next time Facebook is breached and decides not to tell anyone about it, your data and all your friends' and family's data could be comprised as well since Facebook is storing it all in the same place. Facebook doesn't care because nobody is holding them accountable for any of the breaches they're experiencing. What did they say the last time they were breached? I think it was that nobody's data is truly safe online and that breaches happen all the time, so deal with it.

Facebook is currently in the process of merging messaging between Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, and Instagram. They've already added some really sketchy stuff to WhatsApp's EULA that brings it more in line with what an end user would expect to give Facebook rather than what should be a simple messaging app. Here's an example, one of the first things Facebook has done to WhatsApp to bring it in line with Facebook Messenger is allow anyone to add anyone to a group chat. This was done to facilitate Facebook's e-commerce push for WhatsApp. It also now gives WhatsApp the right to share contacts details on your phone with Facebook, regardless of whether or not they have an account. This is cool because Facebook just keeps having data breaches it just doesn't care about.

They have a near monopoly on Internet messaging services. Facebook messenger and WhatsApp combine for some 3.5b active users. Telegram is a small fraction of that and iMessage doesn't count here as an Apple-exclusive platform that mostly replaces SMS for iOS users. The only platform that even comes close is WeChat and their reach in the US is tenuous, at best. Facebook specifically bought WhatsApp to close the gap on messaging as WhatsApp was Facebook Messenger's only legitimate rival outside of China.

None. I am tempted to buy whatever I need to unlock Kula, but most of the DLC is just ever skimpier outfits and way to many school uniforms.

Well, I went and bought DoA6 since it was on sale on Steam. There's are...questionable costume choices. Also great that in story mode starts off with you playing as Marie Rose that looks 14, in all the gothic lolita you could shake a stick at. It's...better than previous DoA, but not really by that much.

I think that's a pretty valid case to make here. Facebook specifically bought Instagram to squash a potential competitor and then bought WhatsApp because they were their biggest competitor in the platform agnostic chat space. WhatsApp was the only platform agnostic chat client bigger than Facebook Messenger. The only client that comes close now is WeChat.

I like this one. She could be doing all this to save her Loki that the Time Keepers have earmarked for destruction or even simple revenge.

The artwork SNK did for their games was amazing, particularly on a CRT. I can take appreciate some good pixel art, it didn't even have to be wildly high fidelity. I think Celeste and Micro Mages did a great job with their sprite work, but their games don't look like what games did when I was l growing up and playing NES games in the 80s on a CRT. There's a false memory at play here thanks to emulation, gaming on LCDs, and shitty YouTube captures. CRTs didn't have bigger pixels the same way people think they must have when they're in a Retina Display mindset. It also wasn't just bleed between scan lines. There was also the ghosting that occurred when the beam came back around and hit the same point on the display. It's like trying to explain how the Vectrex display looks to someone that's never seen a vector monitor in person. Like no, there are no pixels. There are just lines.

Regular people should nearly never have to interact with an armed officer. The cops giving out speeding tickets shouldn't be armed, the cops performing wellness checks shouldn't be armed, the cops showing up because the party next door is too loud shouldn't be armed, the cops showing up when you call 911 after a car accident shouldn't be armed, the cops showing up to take your statement after your house had been broken into shouldn't be armed.

We've just seen the sprites that are in that article. SE has been going back and forth with how to port the older FF games. First they redid the sprites the way they think they would have done them had they had today's technology back then. Everyone hated it, so now it looks like they've created sprites that try to emulate what the original sprites would have looked like on CRTs. I think SE's efforts would be better put to use in creating a good CRT filter and maybe some QoL updates.

This is why you don't outsource commercial art to the lowest bid.

Yeah, it's really hard to explain what playing on a CRT was like for someone that's never played on a CRT. Screenshots don't accurately represents the experience. Games weren't a blurry mess and scan lines weren't really so pronounced as they are in most emulators. Instead, there was a short amount of color bleed between lines. This is because TVs were designed in such a way because people didn't want huge and pronounced scan lines cutting across everything. This led to a sort of blur kind of anti-aliasing, but it wasn't over the entire image, instead it only really extended to adjacent scan lines.

That's my major problem with DoA. It's easily my favorite 3D fighting engine, but I haven't bothered picking up a game in the series since Dimensions on the 3DS because of how ridiculous it's been. DoA6 core is free on Steam, so I'll pick it up and see if it's gotten any better. That said, I do see that a lot of the DLC is just skimpy outfits and bikinis.

Kiwi Farms still exists? How bad that cesspool survived and not even get blacklisted by Google?

Crunchyroll doesn't censor anything they get. Now, if they license a series through another American publisher that does censor their stuff then that's a different story. Crunchyroll, themselves, doesn't. Neither they nor Funimation have the time to censor stuff they have up for simulcast. Whatever they air is the same as whatever gets aired on Japanese TV. That said, what's on TV in Japan is very often not what ends up on Blu-ray. Sometimes there will be some self-censorship for Japanese TV or shitty animation brought on by the crunch of scheduling that gets fixed when a series gets a proper release.

Good Job is a great game. It's a perfect game to get into a fight over.
