This is reminding me of how Ars Technica recently metaphorically stepped in it in regards to AI BS in a story less than a month ago. What an information nightmare we’re wading into

Windows Central? They’re not affiliated with MS, unless they also don’t like the nickname.

Quick resume is pretty much the only thing about the Series X that has stood out for me. It’s nice being able to hop into multiple games without waiting for loads and being right back where you left off. It’s by no means a must have though. It’s way better than the PS5’s equivalent.

Windows central is reporting that the windows 12 rumor is bs. I think they went so far as to call it an AI slop fabricated story.

Yeah, I’m hoping they don’t wall that stuff off from the general PC space for business reasons.

Their emulation work is one of the few bright spots of the Xbox platform on the past decade. Things like FPS boost and Auto HDR are nice for improving older games. I’m not sure if any third party emulators can do the same, admittedly.

The PC cannot currently play non-ported Xbox games at this time, though. I get why you’re saying “just a PC” but that’s a distinction worth noting. I hope the PC platform in general will gain the ability to play all Xbox games and not just Xbox branded hardware. I also hope PCs gain the ability to use some of the features that are nice about Xbox (mainly Quick Resume).

Nintendo has determined it’s not a benefit to their business model and they own a third of the Pokémon Company. Their new competitive game is coming to mobile phones in a few months though which is a pretty big change.

I’m zooming in to attempt to name and shame the author, but it’s too low rez. Hopefully the sick fuck is dead

Please keep being a squeaky wheel urging them to move to a better platform

I use a safari plugin called Wipr. There’s another I’m aware of called Vinegar

Lots of ways around this, even on locked down iOS/iPadOS

I checked to see if they were from the MGTOW instance

Tim Sweeney really decided to lean in on this by defending the pedo AI gen bullshit on twitter

Its 2025 sales numbers are about 4 million, half that of 2024, and that’s with half the year with no successor console. Maybe it’ll beat it, but I don’t feel it’s a foregone conclusion

Probably not, unless Nintendo releases a surprise last iteration of the console which I also don’t see as that may cannibalize Switch 2 sales. A Switch Micro would be cool though

Yarr? Yarr!

He may not have coined the term, but Gucci’s full quote is an all-timer

If a man does not have sauce, then he is lost. But the same man can get lost in the sauce.

While I don’t think he’s a good rapper in the technical sense, there’s something I absolutely love about Gucci. I play his East Atlanta Santa Christmas songs this time of the year, every year.

I’ve been playing Metroid Prime 4. It’s ok, only more of what I expected, nothing incredible like Dread was for me. You can definitely feel how it’s cobbled together after being in development hell.

I finally picked up Dave the Diver on sale, looking forward to digging into that soon.

As someone who formerly worked with and still volunteers with people with autism, this story was really touching. I know exactly what Rob and Dianne mean when they say Ronnie enriched their lives.

One of the biggest issues people with autism suffer with is loneliness and isolation; I encourage anyone looking for something meaningful to do with their time to look into how to become a friend to someone who is differently abled.
