New Nintendo patent suggests Switch 2 may solve joycon drift in c/games@lemmy.world

I've had my Switch since launch and haven't had any drifting issues. My brothers both had it though, so I think I've just been incredibly lucky.

Starz is lowering the price of its annual subscription, unlike everyone else in c/technology@lemmy.world

I picked them up a few months ago so I could watch Clerks 3 and Ghostbusters Afterlife. Then I ended up watching Spartacus, Ash vs Evil Dead, and Outlander. There's a few other things on there I'd like to see, but I don't think it's enough to justify a yearly subscription considering how little TV I watch. Once they have John Wick 4 and I get through that, then I'll probably cancel.

If the same game is available and on sale on GOG and Steam, on which platform you rather buy it? in c/gaming@lemmy.ml

[–] nutlink@kbin.social 13 points 2 years ago

GOG. DRM-free support needs all the help it can get. I have nothing but respect for Steam, so it's my secondary choice. The only exception is if it's a game that's been out for a while and there's been discrepancies between GOG and Steam support (or a dev/publisher with a history of said issues), in which case I'll go with the one that's better supported.

TIL that In 2005, Sony BMG installed DRM software without knowledge or consent of the user, that included a rootkit which created a security vulerability in c/til@lemmy.world

There were tons of issues with earlier DRM models. SecuROM not working with certain disc drives, SafeDisc driver vulnerabilities, StarForce allegedly bricking some hardware, Tages eating up online activations for simple hardware swaps. Everyone hated them, but the Sony rootkit was probably the biggest one at the time. From what I remember there was no mention of it anywhere on the CDs or in the EULA, and when they did get caught their "fix" basically just hid the files while collecting info on you and sending it back to Sony.
