>>107631613Honestly this might be a nice option for those who want to play just one game but are not interested in gaming as a hobby.

I think this kind of services are for people like me.

I trmember wanting to become an engineer. Working with technology seemed so cool. Also you got paid a lot. But the math was too hard. I had to drop out.But now I see a lot of engineers and other tech workers struggling? What the hell. I thought that softwarw engineers were supposed to program AI. Not get replaced by AI?
>>107633621>Right now you still need some highly skilled people if you want to make good software.Nah, we only need overpaid data engineers so we can accelerate the AI expansion and put even more of the planet into debt!Who needs software? All apps in the future will be a single text box where you input something and the AI gives you the output.
>>107632831>only bullshit like delivery.Who are they delivering to though? How are they paying for goods? What job are they doing? Is the economy all just delivery drivers delivering deliveries to other delivery drivers now? I know debt levels are increasing at unsustainable rates and there are ads for paypal loans for takeaway meals. But there's only so much debt an un/underemployed consumer can take on surely? Feels like we're on the precipice of a total collapse.
>>107634683>Feels like we're on the precipice of a total collapse.That is precisely what these articles want you to think. The truth is that while some people are broke, society on the whole is not teetering on the brink.Retards have historically always been horrible with their money. I had a lot of exposure growing up through my extended family ("I only have two dollars and it's gotta last us til I get paid on Friday" -> buys a carton of cigarettes every week alongside two 30 racks of bud lite) but these bums always persist on EBT and other shit. Laziness and hedonism pretty much ensures that delivery will survive forever, so many people would rather spend $12 in delivery fees than get in their shitbox car and drive for ten minutes.
>>107634346As somebody who's lived in real poverty (years of my childhood without running water, gas, or electric - cooking on wood burning stove), I can always tell when I'm looking at performative poverty.Just like if you grew up in the ghetto you can spot a tourist a mile away.
>>107634683>Feels like we're on the precipice of a total collapse.This is absurd. Every 10 years or so the standard of living is ratcheted up substantially. How big of a house you have, what kind of car you have, what kind of bullshit tech you have in your house, what kind of food you can afford to eat regularly.The simple truth is are standard of living is so high that even the poorest people today live better than any royalty in history. Even the bottom 1% in a western country own iPhones and eat steaks.

What's the best PC controller on the market right now? My wired Xbox controller from 2015 works fine but I wanna go wireless
>>107633030>Both my dualshock 3 joysticks have barely functioning batteries and I can't get decent replacements, just used batteries with a new sticker slapped on top of them from AliExpress.there are some chinkshit batteries on ebay
>>107622088Because retards are obsessed with obsolete handheld controllers, VR support in 3D games is lacking and the path towards removing functionality is the most streamlined due to a decade of the forced Xinput meme.For most 2D games an arcade style controller is optimal and everyone has deluded themselves into thinking that dpads are good, because it has been on so much handheld Nintendo ewaste.For most 3D games a mouse and keyboard would be optimal, but support for optimal control configuration is generally lacking. VR has potential, but there is a limit to what mods can do.I look forward to the Steam controller 2, mostly just to fuck with it.>>107625731Comfy for maneuvering a spaceship in for landing. >>107625810You lift, push (xy), twist and tilt (x,y), so you have 6DoF.There was a flight stick that was going to do this, but it got caught in development hell due to covid afaik.
Are there any negatives about Cyclone 2? I think I'll get that one while I wait for the steam controller.
>>107615824>just buy a tool kit, buy a 3rd party battery from AliExpress, watch a tutorial, just take out all the screws, pop out 8 buttons, install the battery, then put it all back together!the fucking cope from you fanboys is unreal. Why can't you be a big boy and just admit that 1 is better than the other? The xbox controller is more consumer friendly than the ps4/5 controller. Always has been.
