yeh a shame,, the Xbox App on PC is so barebones, it doesn't even tell you what's wrong..

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 1h

grrr broken on gamepass..

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 2h

aah its even on gamepass. well was debating wether to keep GP at the new price... well for a little longer then..

the indie selection really has been lacking of late, so this is a decent find.

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 2h

alright wishlisted that.. def my beef..

I believe that a thing called 'financial independence' (never heard of it myself) insulates its user from the consequences of their actions.

Diminishing use of core skills such as critical thinking and 'awareness of others' leads to the transformative process of becoming "a douche".

I remain confused how people in my industry, the ones who built the web and benefited from its best days, can use AI. Those products, the companies, and the people behind them are choking the web to death. Is there no respect for what we’ve built?

Little bit of combat around Stargazer for the unannounced remaster (soon) #screenshotsaturday

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 18h

me too, but the grand canyon f18 challenge they have now is beyond superlatives. It's like a AAA bespoke action sequence. super cool

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 18h

It's simply MS flightsim 2024.. They do weekly low altitude challenges, get to a destination as fast and as low as possible and plot your own route. It is literally one of the best classic gaming experience out there atm.

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 18h

it is

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 18h

MS flightsim 2024.. they have low altitude challenges that are insanely fun

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 18h

boot this up and do a canyon run anywhere on earth..

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 18h

well you know when you overshoot the canyon, your run is basically toast.. didn't even get to shoot the womp rats.. dooh..

Its insane you can just boo

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 19h

I meant this stuff. Doesnt need to be usb.. but thats a ridiculous amount of brand specific plugs

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 19h

no that's the problem I just spend 150 euros to convert those cables to an aftermarket pioneer set...

150 bucks.. wtf!
no standards.. just car stereo nonsense

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 19h

This is not because of security. I mean its a fucking radio. Why does it need to look like a beehive of different connectors .

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 19h

Can anyone give me a rational reason, other than ripping off car owners with ridiculously priced converters/cable harnasses etc, why car radios just don't connect with a USB cable or two?

I mean this is all about paying up for silly bespoke plugs right?

Fuck that hyperreal grimdark shit, this is the real photoreal..

not crushing your own brand.. as being a negative... that's sort of marketing 101 I would think.

How about evolving , leveling up, mastering even rebooting...

You know positive association... that old beast..

Tomas Sala @falconeerdev.bsky.social · 2d

I cannot believe I would ever advise in favor of ad agencies. But yeh in-housing marketing.... not always a good idea.
