@baeto_hoosky same

I'm getting really sick of tech coverage stroking the ego of graphics card manufacturers when only two AAA games even "need" them

and the others are just cripplingly poorly optimized or using a windows or 3rd party module that's absolutely shitting itself constantly.

meanwhile overwhelming majority of indie games (and older AAA) run perfectly fine on ten year old hardware.

I still run 4 year old AAA games on a gtx1060 and it's actually almost a challenge to find games that *won't* run acceptably, especially on linux using proton.

@Decimal replace "ability" with "requirement" and you'd be unironically correct imo

I've never played a game with an unnecessarily high minimum skill requirement that didn't feel like absolutely terrible to play below that skill requirement

@Aetous ah yes, the classic

Comic strip, coworkers reacting "sick bastard!" to a programmer who wrote the following code:
```
// Brute-force attack protection
if isPasswordCorrect && isFirstLoginAttempt {
    Error("wrong login or password")
}
```

Not missing the old days of mojang accounts when changing your password take fifteen fucking minutes to propagate and actually start working. stars forbid you change it again and have to wait another 15 minutes.

I swear some login systems have a protocol to randomly deny valid inputs just to fuck with intruders

Theory:
Valid users know they're valid users, assume they typed it wrong, and keep trying, eventually passing.

Intruders, not know whether or not the password is valid and concerned further attempts will get them caught and blocked may choose to immediately stop and gather more information.
