I understand the different preferences. But you know, 144hz does make a noticeable difference. And in the TV world, 4K panels supporting HDR does make a difference because of the better contrast and colors (if content supports HDR). Resolution matters only if you can actually see the difference it brings. Mostly, it…

I don’t “get” 4K panels in laptops. I think a 1440p panel would be nice for a 17", and 1080p for a 15" model, but don’t anyone else feel that past some point, there isn’t so much to gain, since we’re not having our face glued to the screen?

The FB wrapper app “Metal” doesn’t have access to your GPS data, and integrates both the FB and messenger functionalities in the same app (also, it can manage Twitter as well if you wish - I don’t Twitter, but it’s there as well). If you need/want access to FB and/or Twitter without giving them access to all your…

Ha, yes.... the “rogue employee” that all companies somehow ends up blaming when their plan backfires on them....

To anyone wanting to access Facebook on the go, without using the FB app, there are third-party apps which act as a “wrapper” for the web version of Facebook. Which means, FB don’t have access to your mobile location, pictures, phone data, microphone, cameras, etc... because the wrapper doesn’t have access to those…

When you get a product or service for “free”, you’re not the client. You’re what’s being sold.

And this is one of the reason why I almost never play mobile games, except those that are “pay once, play forever” type deal. Because to me, altering gameplay elements only so that you can include monetization possibilities is a game-breaking aspect. There is no logical in-game reason at all for this in a game other…

I always find it completely bonkers when people go apesh!t over these kind of things. It’s like the outrage when EA put women into that Battlefield game and people were citing “historical accuracy” as the reason why they were against it. I guess loot boxes and respawns are pretty historically accurate, yes? Same thing…

I think digital anything could work, provided it is not strangled with DRM and allow you to do whatever you want with your files. While I have a sub or two for streaming services, the movies I like, the music I like and the books I like, I tend to buy them physical. For movies and music, I rip them and store them on…

The problem is that these companies are trying to reason him by asking to look at the bigger picture, which requires more than a 4-sec attention span, something President Orange McPissed isn’t capable of.

Not saying what he mentionned isn’t true (like you say, we witness these kind of things often), but I’d really like to read an in-depth article about this whole thing. Not just a post from someone in a comment section. It would be cool if someone from Kotaku (or any serious game news outlet) could actually do some…

I know. Personnaly, the “men are trash” bit didn’t really made me raise my eyebrow. But the whole “there are exceptions” thing, on the other hand, I think of it as actually more insulting because this was supposed to be thought out. The initial words that were said were mostly a completely understandable emotional…

...but when a CEO tells you “I’m doing this thing because it’s going to make things better for everyone”, you start looking for the razor in the candy floss.

Personally, the only two names on that list I know about are Ariana Grande (never listened, not my style) and The National. Kind ofmakes me feel like I know nothing about music these days (well, maybe nothing about popular music - which I would probably agree - I never listen to top 40 radios or their streaming…

Not because of the load time per se. I can stand longer than usual load times. It all depends on the context. Having to wait 40 seconds when loading up a game is one thing, having to wait 40 seconds every goddamn time you’re starting a race is another.
Also, when loading screens have some animations or light…

This makes me remember an old Dreamcast Demo disc I had back in the day, with something like “Hoyle’s Card games” by Sierra on it, which took litterally about 2 minutes to load. Me and a friend were completely appalled because if you took into account the amount of RAM of the Dreamcast, vs the average speed at which…

Interesting, but it has that “sports Watch” look I’m not very fond of. My Pebble Time Steel looks more like an everyday watch I can wear everytime. Also, does it have music control like Music Boss for Pebble? This works with almost any music playing app of your choice.

I still rock my Pebble Time Steel and even if I’d go out today to find a replacement, I would have a hard time finding one that tick all the boxes that this years old smartwatch does. I still have over a week of juice on a single charge, screen is constantly on and you can see it perfectly in broad daylight,…

not everybody actually wants a better world in general, as long as they can take what’s “theirs” (from whom, they might ask...but they don’t).

That being said, there’s no way I’d switch to iOS right now based on their locked-down ecosystem and incredibly expensive hardware. But that’s just me.
