@rlier23@YeetLibs Vinny only pulls out the facecam when he has the GameBoy Camera setup, or when doing some really silly shit like V-Dub playing CoD. Not that he's gross to look at honestly, man still looks like a horror game protagonist.

DunkagCheating Detective Satori finally actually getting into backstory, and to no surprise it's a little darker than usual. Can't wait for people to use this to justify their grimdark fetishes for the next few years. :flan_tired: Outside of that the newer chapters have been slightly fun, but a bit too shounen-like, and Reimu's actually here to prove she's a menace. Really, this revenge or whatever is far too absurd and slightly misplaced. Time has passed and both people and youkai are happy with the peace, overturning it for selfish reasons related to the past isn't going to make anything better. Can't wait for Reimu to genuinely one hit the dumbass spirit, it's what she deserves. Maybe everyone can drink together when the anger clears as usual.
@mangeurdenuage@Kyonko802@redneonglow Yeah I mean of course this is all a "for now," however it looks really damn silly to show the image as if it's being rolled out for all users right now (especially when a large portion of the population's devices can't even interact with this properly quite yet, seeing as pluton's major implementations are currently in fucking ARM chips for Windows). I respect properly fearing the future and showing what could happen, however presenting the future as the present with something false never helps anyone. I'm not discounting healthy fear and understanding, but rather the showcase of blatantly impractical or disingenuous information. This is what leads to people ignoring valid concerns, when Microsoft can come out of the corner and say "no this isn't happening to users" and they're almost entirely right because this isn't a common feature yet. You gotta present information correctly the first time around, not everyone sticks around to see the discussions, or they'll pop out after seeing a correction and assume that's the end of it. The only people this ends up sticking with when presented as is are those who already hate Microsoft and either use Linux or were already planning on switching to Linux. Maybe I'm thinking too hard, but this is always a problem I have with discussions about "WIndows bad." A discussion of the hypothetical future rather than the present, even when directly asked about the present.
@redneonglow@mangeurdenuage Microsoft Pluton is an encryption/security firmware built exclusively for devices that have a dedicated Pluton chip built in and are designed with the entire board locked down (i.e. laptops or tablets). Even if this was real and it did this, it wouldn't affect you unless you're someone using a business oriented locked down windows 11 device with specifically this chip included (which describes barely any devices that aren't made by Microsoft themselves).
@Ronnie21093@Kyonko802 I think anyone other than the chinese themselves have no say in chinese copyright law. You think Disney lets em run free of their own will? They've been bootlegging Disney shit for far longer than Nintendo had any IP people cared about. Wouldn't be surprised if the government even passively supports this position because it mostly attacks American and Japanese copyright holders.
@bronze@installgentoo This is cruel and unusual torture that the tube foxes will not stand for. A wolf tengu strike team will be at your door to kidnap you within 30 minutes or less.
@rainignterror1080p My kill time game (Kubinashi Recollection) didn't make it up there, mostly because a lot of playtime ended up spent on Mystia's Izakaya and rougelikes. It did however make it to the steam deck most played list.
@SuperSnekFriend@MoeBritannica :cirno_think: I wonder if these kinds of people are really aware of human nature as a whole, or even a basic thing like why people enjoy media. Banning porn and all types of sexual content would, at best, be a laughable idea, and at worst lead to a genuine military coup of a country. The only way you could ever get away with such a law would be using religious influence of ideals, and assuring that the entire population follows said religion, a prospect that would require a large amount of time. Of course, that's all an aside. It's more telling than anything that these bastards are considering allure to always be pornographic in nature. The kinds of fools whose understanding of fiction is beyond impaired, likely would've protested D&D as being demonic rituals when that stance was big despite it being nerd shit for nerds who don't even think demons are real. Same for any cultural phenomenon, it can't be a trend caused by people actually enjoying something, it has to be the work of Satan himself. All so tiresome. :flan_tired:
@Yoruka I'll consider it once I manage to stop being a cognitohazard around linux devices. The last few machines I've used linux on have experienced such great things as: multiple parts of the system board death (admittedly for reasons related to a previous owner and not linux), drivers never working and leaving the system a horrifying monster to try untangling, and the main drive being completely unmapped and having its partition labels corrupted for no reason (I still need to fix this one admittedly). I don't hate linux though, just passively seem to always have issues whenever I load it onto a system. I do despise using wine and can never seem to get it to work as intended, even though proton and some wine launchers have no issue. At least the steam deck is unharmed.

DunkagI hate Windows so much sometimes (this is not a request for the linux evangelists to start singing the gospel, I have my reasons my main machine still runs Windows). I love issues being solved by absolutely unreasonable solutions like "NAS shows up on my machine after a completely different machine that has no relation connects to it once." :flan_tired: This problem has been plaguing me since I reloaded the OS and that solution was the dumbest fucking thing.
@Ronnie21093 It was a real good moment, simply for the fact it wasn't just "proof of destruction of evidence," it was an email that said "yeah we destroyed those Valve documents relating to the case like you asked boss." So absurd, can hardly make this shit up :flan_laugh:
@lina@MK2boogaloo Kinda, it's more that most of them are just autistic and partially retarded. The smuggest asshole in all of Gensokyo, Yukari, is in reality just a loner who has zero idea how to make friends so she made up this whole threatening personality to be able to socialize. She falls into a panic if someone actually suggests being nice to her. Aya though, while probably also partially mental, acts this way fully intentionally and goes out of her way on a daily basis to fuck with others while doing it. The only time she'll slip her personality is when a higher ranked tengu (that isn't Hatate) is nearby, and that's only out of fear.
@lina@MK2boogaloo Rather than a grudge against someone on the Fedi, I have a partial dislike of Aya as a person. I understand her whole shtick, but she causes a lot of distaste in doing it. She'll earn my respect when she starts acting honestly rather than playing the smug know it all over everything, including what she doesn't know and can't help with.
