Just used one today to finish listening to a YouTube video while I was in the shower. It’s not a “bathroom” speaker per se, just a pretty nice Bluetooth one, Anker Soundcore Boost, with enough volume to rise above the white noise of the shower and ventilation fan.

Frikkin’ awesome

Very interesting; thank you

Good idea

I feel you. The Network Effect is real, and the niche subreddits need a HUGE overall userbase to work at all.

The total population of Lemmy + Kbin is about the size of a medium size city subreddit.

I’m staying here for now. I sometimes cheat and browse reddit not-logged-in. I don’t know what the answer is.

as our menu options recently changed

They’ve ALWAYS changed… 😭

What are you trying to tell me? That I can dodge bullets?

You think that’s air you’re breathing?

Nice. Definitely check out the Hitman series and the Dishonored series if you love stealth

Could be some truth to that. Half-Life 3 would be very hard to live up to at this point…

and why there’s a dude named Ashley

🤣

I wish Valve could count to three :-(

RimWorld is incredible. I’m hard pressed to think of another game with as much customization of play style or as vibrant a mod scene.

Yessss! This is the game that caused me to have the idea to do this post.

I first played it about a year ago. I used the two hour Steam refund period, which in retrospect probably caused me to rush or not give it enough of a chance.

Fast forward to now, when I’m dealing with a nasty chronic health condition and lots of time on my hands. And I’m between games - basically waiting for stuff to come out, like the Factorio DLC.

So I poked around and somehow Elden Ring came up as a possibility. And then I found THIS video:

Elden Ring Is a Masterpiece — my thoughts after 60 hours

And it got me so hyped that I ended up watching a ton more videos. And finally I plunked down the $60 and gave it a shot.

Now I can’t stop thinking about it. I am in love with the jaw dropping terrain, inventive enemies, depth of play styles and options, the brilliant way it hints at things instead of spamming a map with quest markers and to do lists. I’ve had moments that felt like I was on the inside of an epic fantasy novel, living an otherworldly fever dream of awesomeness.

I gotta ask - given all that, what’d you think of 4?

How do you know?

Well, to be fair, from what I’ve been hearing, one of the big points of contention of the internal battle at OpenAI was safety itself. Like some on the board being concerned about the “make your ChatGPT” feature debuting at the dev conference thing. So at least some people care. Which is more than I would have thought…

I do like the word “chucklefucks”, though.

Yes! Those AI image threads have been so much fun
