183·7 days agoWhile I wouldn’t have bought games for cloud gaming myself, some consumers likely bought games without other means of playing them and are now unable to make use of their purchased content.

Technology@beehaw.org•Gemini can now create personalized AI images by digging around in Google PhotosEnglish
6·12 days agoI hate that I have just a shitty quality picture of a picture of that moment.
I’d personally still rather have the authentic moment captured than an AI-polished version of it.

Nintendo@lemmy.world•NES – Nintendo Classics – April 2026 Game UpdatesEnglish
23·19 days agoIt still amazes me how many people are perfectly fine subscribing for temporary access to a ROM library.
Edit: It’s not surprising that companies opt for subscription models to boost profitability; it’s just frustrating that rational consumers are progressively less and less able to purchase products at reasonable prices because the average consumer is putting up with it.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Stremio is getting on my nervesEnglish
3·20 days agoNote that Debridio doesn’t work without a Debrid service; it exists merely as a paid alternative to Torrentio for when it’s congested with too many users at once. Doesn’t happen too often thankfully.
I personally prefer how Torrentio formats results, but unreliability with the service has frustrated family members in the past (the point of using Stremio in the first place being to make torrenting as much like using Netflix as possible for non-techies) and made having an alternative useful, just in case.
In reconfiguring Torrentio, make sure you uninstall it before reinstalling it, as it doesn’t overwrite it.

As a public broadcaster, the BBC should be cooperating with PBS on news stories instead of relying on increasingly biased reporting from CBS.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Stremio is getting on my nervesEnglish
7·21 days agoI will mention I did renew the real debrid subscription which seems fishy - I used to use TorrentioRD+ but it doesn’t recognise my subscription so I can only use Torrentio.
Torrentio is much more reliable with Real-Debrid than without; did you get your API key from Real-Debrid and add it while configuring Torrentio?
Even still, Torrentio can at times be unreliable, as other free debrid indexers can also be. An alternate option to use alongside or instead of Torrentio is the paid Debridio service ($10 a year).

Nintendo@lemmy.world•Ratatan Dev Cancels The Switch VersionEnglish
13·25 days agoGiven that the Switch 2 is backwards compatible with Switch games, it seems dumb for a 2D indie game likely capable of running on the Switch without compromise to instead target the system with a far smaller install base.
