Interesting theory. Valve may have assembled the Steam Machine based on the most common specs of their users That would be awfully convenient since they're using relatively newer chips but it could explain why they made very limiting choices like 8GB VRAM x.com/lextorias/st...

The first of three parts of my obituary of Juan Ponce Enrile came out in today's INQUIRER.net:

I love my Steam Machine

OK I won't say I didn't have a Steam Machine hot take But everyone seems to have lost their minds over it LMAO

Not even the grimiest of b-movie producers came up with something this sleazy nypost.com/2025/11/12/w...

Takashi Mochizuki must have some kind of humiliation fetish www.videogameschronicle.com/news/pokemon...

Honestly if billionaires and diehard MAGA people only cared about making money, we'd probably be in considerably less danger right now.

Looking back, I don't think it makes sense to say Palestinians and Sudanese are the same

It's fun to make fun of Hasan Piker but it doesn't look good for the Chinese to not know who he is but to be huge fans of Asmongold The streamer famous for being anti immigration and for having disparaged specifically Indians and Latinos in the past

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

I hope they lean on that Breaking Bad Easter egg

The Politics of Hunger in Sudan transitionmagazine.fas.harvard.edu/the-politics...

The consensus view among the Dem base is: -normie mainstream liberalism -unremitting, fire-breathing, hardline anti-Trumpism The factions that exist outside of this consensus have a strong incentive to essentially act as if it’s not an option, and you must choose either leftism or accommodationism

The Sudan war is more important news than anything happening in America to be honest

I have never seen an image or this guy, regardless of the topic under discussion, where he doesn’t have that same shit-eating grin plastered on his face.

A new survey of Taiwanese gamers by MIC (產業情報研究所) indicates that console gaming slightly behind PC but growing fast, and Switch dominates the console market. Mobile 83.9% PC 26% Console 24.4% (+7.2% YoY) • Switch 69.8% • PS 41% • Xbox 28.8% A lot more info here: mic.iii.org.tw/news.aspx?id...

I know that sometimes the cultural perspective of teenagers can be distorted because it's normal for twentysomethings to play 15- and 16-year-olds on TV, but they are unmistakably children. They're not five, but they are very clearly not adults.

I got a YouTube ad earlier today where Noem threatened to deport me

Media policy changes on a case by case basis in such a way that every stance benefits Trump and harms Democrats

I can't believe this literally happened

In earnest if Valve asked for help to distribute their new hardware I think Microsoft might do it (for a cut of course)

Valve and Microsoft are partners who make tons of money off of each other. It's not going to be some 'war'

Shady financier alluding to committing sex crimes with his best friend who’s a presidential candidate: I sleep Three kids in a local school district have asked to be identified by different pronouns: Real shit

It can only be called indie if it is from the region of itch.io

New report on the situation in Sudan www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

I don’t know at this point if there is enough evident to say “the New York Times, institutionally, was a co-conspirator with Epstein” but it’s basically beyond doubt at this point that at least one employee of the paper were co-conspirators and used their position at the paper to help affect that

this gets reposted a lot, but truth be told trump has never really wriggled out of anything. what actually happens is that other people passively or actively support him

I think there's something going on here that nobody else noticed and I imagine Hasan Piker didn't realize he was doing He may be clashing with the Chinese he's interacting with culturally. They may be reading his overtly independent actions as disruptive, AKA, clashing with their harmony

In the meantime, in our country, literal vampire Juan Ponce Enrile was forced to face his portrait in the mirror, was burnished with a cross, shot with a silver bullet, and died

I'm willing to bet "six times more powerful than the Steam Deck" is some playing with language on the level of the Sega Genesis' "blast processing"

Not to console war but I think PlayStation 5 Pro owners should acknowledge their dunce caps before they start talking about the Steam Machine

If you're too busy to read about the leaked Epstein emails but you will listen to someone talking about them may I recommend Hutch? I haven't known him that long and I don't follow follow him so please do not litigate his politics to me. At least I believe he's honest youtu.be/LTQ7TtBFm60?...

Apparently Kanye's apologies to the Jewish community looks legitimate. His supply finally ran out huh

I don't know where the kpop stans are here but the Newjeans alleged return to ADOR is the most tumultuous thing I've seen the community go through for some time I've been open about being a gllit and yeah, I don't trust those girls around my girls. But mostly I care about Illit

This is the Challenger Disaster of ethics in media.

Somehow the emails have exonerated Bill Clinton. LMAO

$ 800

i gotta be less generous with my timetables

If you ordered Metroid Prime 4 on Best Buy GCU back in around 2018, you may get a phone call from Best Buy asking if you still want the game with 20% off discount. They'll need to reorder it the game for you since the order is too old for their system (unfortunately can't change to Switch 2 Edition)

Bible 1999 definitely sounds like one of those hip new 1990s bible translations

Ultra Instinct Hinako mode added

Bill Clinton's impeachment is twice as old as the girls Trump was molesting with his best friend Epstein

What this tells me is the employees have been underpaid for a long time and Sega didn't adjust enough

Media standards: 1) No Democratic scandal on par with Trump-Epstein, so it’d be biased and unfair to five it much attention. 2) Trump wouldn’t be shamed into resigning and his cult of personality wouldn’t abandon him, so Trump-Epstein wasn’t worth pursuing. Way too many think that’s journalism.

I think this is a misunderstanding of qanon imo or like the reason why pizzagate/qanon immediately latched onto innocious uses of “cp” in podesta emails is because they themselves we’re already using cp as a code word regularly.

I keep confusing this with the Panda Go Panda short

Can we circle back to the part where the NY Times never disclosed that they have incriminating information on Donald Trump from sent by Epstein that's been sitting on their email servers for nearly a decade?
