That’s sad, it’s actually somewhat nice to have. It actually works better than my 2021 car’s integrated maps, which is wild. Yes, the OEM screwed up the maps app so badly that most streets don’t even have names visible, and the car struggles to find even basic chains, camp sites, addresses, etc.

Wahots@pawb.socialto Technology@lemmy.zip•The Return of the Pebble Smartwatch Is a Sign People Crave Something UniqueEnglish2·5 days agoI like my $40 watch for surfing, but setting alarms or timezones on it is a massive pain. Smartwatches are great for easily setting alarms/timers when cooking :)
That, and I’m trying to also pull out my phone less and less, as it’s distracting. (My smartwatch is unpaired from my phone)
34UW, 27in left. Perfection.
The 360 was so good

Wahots@pawb.socialto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•If you dig into Oblivion Remastered's files you can find almost the whole original game like a set of dinosaur bonesEnglish3·14 days agoMany already do, Kingdom Come: Deliverance is one that immediately comes to mind.
Wahots@pawb.socialto Gaming@lemmy.zip•Subnautica 2 teases new creatures and co-op among the coralEnglish4·15 days agoFingers crossed that this is a genuine subnautica 2 and not another BZ.
1 is great with co-op mods, though it’s about as janky as one might expect. Still, it was a lot of fun building bases with friends, and going on submarine adventures.
Wahots@pawb.socialto Technology@lemmy.zip•Logitech quietly raises prices on popular PC accessories by up to 25% after tariffsEnglish4·16 days agoThat’s literally what some companies are doing, to let consumers know that they aren’t price gouging them, and that it’s that dumbfuck’s fault.
This was a really interesting article!
Wahots@pawb.socialto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Baldur's Gate 3's Larian proved players “are not stupid” and want more “deep-a** CRPGs” instead of AAA schlock, says beloved indie publisher [Dave Oshry of New Blood Interactive]English3·20 days agoEven though Larian did a great job modernizing pieces, D&D 5E is just really crunchy and outdated, imo. Larian’s own Divinity Original Sin 2 had a largely better combat, magic, and armor system, even if it is a slightly older title now.
Physical and magic armor, spell cooldowns (prevents spell spam and constant short and long rests), advanced elemental and cursed surfaces, and diversified healing and combat magic make characters more flexible.
5e’s rest system is good for taking care of (what was) useless food in inventory, moves the story along, and provides good places for more natural relationships. D&Ds lack of flexible healing and spell slots means a lot of annoying enemy encounters, however.
I’m on my second playthrough of both titles right now. BG3’s story is awesome. :)

Yeah, Nintendo is smoking unfiltered crack, lol. Who the hell has $80-90 to throw at every game in the midst of an unnecessary economic downturn and possible worldwide meltdown?
Wahots@pawb.socialto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•*Permanently Deleted*English2·2 months agoA lot of the top movies got mixed reviews from friends and family. I saw some that were meh. Hope next year has some better ones.
Wahots@pawb.socialto Linux@lemmy.world•Aoostar R1 N100 fan swap hugely reduces noiseEnglish5·2 months agoThis is giving me PTSD over my Comcast router/modem combo. It had no venting, so it suffered from overheating problems, despite having a fan (it would cause the internet performance to degrade dramatically). Eventually I just shucked the entire thing and ran it without it’s plastic chassis. It ran perfectly after that.

Wahots@pawb.socialto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Bafta: "we’re asking players from around the world to help us decide the Most Influential Video Game of All Time."English3·2 months agoI also said half life. Doom was a leap forward, but Half life actually set a technological and story telling bar, on a budget, in 1998. Many videogames drew inspiration from its innovations, storytelling or themes.
Wahots@pawb.socialto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•I’m about to play Back 4 Blood, the “spiritual successor” to Left 4 Dead.English3·3 months agoThere was a less than flattering YouTube video comparing the two. Valve put a ton of engineering behind the game that was apparently quite difficult to emulate. The results appeared half-baked when compared side by side.
I would love a l4d3 though!
You might like Last Train Home. Every soldier loss is permanent and there’s only so many you can find/rescue.
Based on true events, which is the most insane part. It’s kinda like frostpunk and an RTS game mixed together, which is very satisfying. Souls-like difficulty.
I should set one up. Is it a huge pain in the ass?
I absolutely loved my apartments that had a heatpump and toilets with water-pressure powered engines(?), which barely used any water.
My summer electric bills (all electric appliances) were $66 in the 2020s, $130 in winter. My efficient toilet could have flushed a fucking coconut, it was so powerful that there was actually air getting sucked out of the room when you flushed it. It’s tank had no visible water, but had something that looked like a black car engine, which would blast air and water when flushed.
