Right, immediately made me think of TempleOS, where were the articles then claiming people are losing loved ones to programming fueled spiritual fantasies.

Meanwhile for centuries we’ve had religion but that’s a fine delusion for people to have according to the majority of the population.

Ironic the image is of a switch, like Nintendo has been on the cutting edge at all in the last 20+ years

Ha yeah, that’s how I got the elites functional again, took it apart and did it directly at the button, so far so good after several months.

The Xbox one/core controllers though it was usually part of the thin plastic bit that connects the bumpers (it’s all one piece for some reason…)

I blame Skyrim/Fallout and Dark Souls/ER, so much bumper pressing in those games.

I also use them A LOT, even being a PC gamer lol if it supports controller, that’s how I’m playing it.

I do think where I comfortably press it probably has to do with it.

If you think I’m like throwing them around or doing crazy stuff like that, I don’t haha.

Edit: If you look online, it’s very common for the bumpers to fail

Wish I could agree, but the consistently broken bumpers really irritate me.

I have gone through probably 20ish Xbox controllers, the 360 controllers were the most durable (except the stick rubber bit) whereas the core and series controllers and even my elite 2 controllers have all had the bumpers break or otherwise stop functioning.

I replaces the bumpers several times manually, then with the elite 2 they changed the design but now it breaks at the actual button instead of the flimsy plastic piece like on the core/series controllers.

Luckily putting some ISO on the button and throughly cleaning it along with sticking a small piece of paper near the actuator seems to have fixed it for several months.

I would love a solid controller with Xbox style layout (particularly the thumbsticks) replaceable sticks and 4 back paddles. I think the Playstation TouchPad would also be a welcome addition for PC navigation or steam input mapping.

Lol it’s fine, their comment can be taken many ways, I just wanted to be sarcastic :p

Then use a desktop app instead, this is absolutely useful for me to host on my homelab, I can convert from any web connected device.

But I want to trust randos with my file conversions! 😡

It will if it detects the requests and blocks them

Crowdsec is what stops the intrusion.

Running it off a hdd prob

I made the mistake of looking at comments on one of the steam news articles.

Fair enough, it is annoying having to go to each individual discord to find answers.

Their argument (from my recollection) mostly revolved around their lack of control, they were upset that they could no longer delete all their content off nexusmods.

The sad reality is the reason it was brought forward was due to how frequently mod authors would throw hissy fits and delete their mods.

Wabbajack (precursor to collections and I’d wager still superior for Beth games) mod lists frequently ran into this issue. In many cases it equated to many many hours of work to fix, assuming it wasn’t an essential mod.

Thunderstore is actually excellent for its ease of use, making a mod list to share with a friend is as easy as export profile code.

Where it absolutely fails is any kind of conflict resolution, vortex has it but mod organizer imo is way easier to use (and consistently works) in that regard.

Not to argue on the drama, it was stupid and I fully side with nexus on their reasoning.

I miss slack every day, teams is getting better but… Ugh

I don’t think it will effect scalping in the slightest, just lokm at how GPU prices skyrocketed and scalping was even worse of a problem. The scarcity increases demand and therefore increases how much they can charge.

Potentially.

I have on the same windows install gone from 7 to 10 to 11 without much issue. There were several win 10 updates that fucked with my setup more then the upgrade process.

It’s still a thing unfortunately, one could argue they’re attempting to make modding profitable for modders, but of course they get a cut too.
