Nearly 6 months later, Palworld devs confirm Nintendo never drew so much as an inch of its legal sword over bootleg Pokémon allegations
  • I love the Pokémon franchise, even grew up with it. And Palworld was just a way better experience than let’s say Scarlet and Violet.

    Yes, it was made for PC, which is way more powerful than the switch, yet it ran perfectly fine with ~50 fps on high on my 10 year old PC, while the switch struggles to keep 30.

    Granted, a lot of the monsters look like amalgamates of 2-3 Pokémon - but they looked good, like Katress, that fire-gyrados, even that Dragonite-Goodra-Altaria mix looks good IMO.

    The world was generic, but unique enough to be explored - and it is too big for the amount of Pals that existed.

    I had fun with Pokémon as well, but I only got to play the DLC after I finished Palworld. I did not catch the legendary turtle as of writing this comment because the game is just… boringly slow.

  • what's your favorite hydration drink? bonus points if it's a drink mix
  • For long term hydration:

    • Alcohol free beer (non-American, preferably German-style, cold)

    • water (little lower than room temp)

    • unsweetened tea (cold)

    For quick hydration:

    • sparkling water (littler lower than room temp)

    • sparkling water with lemon (not fridge cold but cold)

    Oh, and no ice cubes.

  • Watch OS needs Series 6 or newer

    For anyone wondering: all AppleWatches older than the S6 Chip are being cancelled, basically Series 5 and below is dead.

    Well then, farewell Series 3. You’ve been a great companion since 2017. I will enjoy the time we still have together, until you finally decorate the rainbow arm when crossing into the big drawer up in the skies. May you be reunited with the Series 0.

    Why does everyone hate Microsoft for adding LLMs into Windows and spying on users, but not Apple?

    MacOS Sequoia: 30+ INSANE CHANGES (Hands-On)

    I've watched the keynote and read some stuff on the internet and I've found this video about a dude talking about the new update (I linked it here because if you didn't see the keynote, this is probably enough)

    Is it just me, or... does no one address that Apple does a Microsoft move by basically scanning everything on every machine and feeding this into their LLM?

    Will GTA 6 live up to the hype?
  • Lemme say that:

    If I tell you: The Movie Shrek 2 is the best movie ever made, and then you watch it and it was Ok for you, you’ll say it’s bad.

    But if I tell you the movie Shrek 2 is the worse ever, and you watch it then, and you find it OK, you’ll say it’s pretty good.

  • GOG is going to start deleting oversized cloud saves at the end of August
  • Understandable. It’s definitely possible to use any other cloud service for the saves. Maybe they’ll have some paid save service in the future - I don’t like this, but considering corporate greed in this equation…

  • Cable or adapter?

    Does it make any difference (quality-wise and input-delay-wise) if I use a DisplayPort to HDMI cable directly or a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, followed by a regular HDMI cable?

    Upgrading my Gaming PC

    Hello everyone.

    My 10 year old computer is not compatible with windows 11 and so I was wondering whether to upgrade Mainboard and CPU to something cheap (I guess not many are worse than my 2014 Intel i5).

    I don’t see how much specs are important for changing these parts. My Power unit is capable of -800W and I‘ve got enough Y-Cables to connect all my 6 fans 2 ports if necessary. Btw it’s only ever being used for gaming. Do you have any suggestions?

    Your personal Masterpieces

    Hello Lemmings!

    I've recently finished the whole Xenosaga series and was impressed by it. Even more than by FF 16 (which was... cutscenes and a few good boss fights). This got me thinking: what else are old games that don't get enough recognition? I'm not talking about the Oceanhorns (which was boring tbh) or Hollow Knifhts, which everyone knows about. More like hidden gems you picked up "because" and liked it. In my case this was Blue Fire, a platformer that mixes Celeste's movement and 3D space. Other games I really enjoyed were

    Valiant Hearts (WWI point and click)

    Light Matter (3D puzzle game)

    Cloudbuilt (a fast mirrors edge)

    I'm more than happy to read some of your recommendations!

    About Safari Extentions

    What are some Safari extensions you yourself use and/or recommend?

    I’ve been using Safari and it only ever since I switched back when the iPhone X came out and never looked back.

    I got annoyed by advertisements pretty early and was looking for an adblocker that did not screw up the whole internet.

    I’m using AdGuard ever since. It’s good, still blocks YouTube ads, but sadly does not let me read news since a lot of them want me to deactivate it, and news websites over here are quite annoyingly full of ads.

    Second I use is Sink It. It makes the internet Reddit website behave a little bit okay-ish. Combined with ad-blocker it’s quite usable.

    Third is Hush. A little open source app that kills cookies the way the internet keeps on working.

    And the final one I use is honey. It hasn’t saved me a single penny yet, but maybe it might one day perhaps eventually.

    I’m happy to read about what extensions you use!

    iPad 6th gen (2018?) in restore mode

    Hello community! There’s someone in my local area who sells this thing.

    Is it safe to buy? I have an M1 Mac if that helps to repair it.

    I’ve never had an iPad or any idea with this recovery thing, so is it still connected to that person? Is it fixable?

    The screen shows the cable and a laptop.

    Back Pain when working, not when gaming for the same time. any advice?

    So I‘ve been a gamer for all my life, never experienced back pain. Not while on the couch, not while pc gaming, never.

    But now since I work on a computer in an office all day long, after not even 2 hours my back feels weird and i have the urge to stretch and bend and even crack it, even though i never did thos, not even after a wow all-nighter.

    Any tips?

    What’s the difference between all those instances?

    We have Lemmy.world, Lemmy.ml, beehaw.org, I think even yiffit.net. If I log in using wefwef it asks me where I want to login. And when I make a new account using another instance, it says ”… Lemmy is federated, so you can interact with everything on lemmy.ml even if you’re registered on a different instance.“ So if I’m registered on lemmy.world, how can I interact with lemmy.ml?
