any recommendations for mice with a good amount of side buttons?
i'm using the logitech g604 right now and i really love its layout, form factor, and features but holy shit the connection has always been really bad and it just keeps getting worse.
@alyx the free version of proton is speed limited but probably not enough to notice during regular browsing. you also can't do any p2p with it.
@casytay i got to put down like 3 pieces xD

tl;dr inZOI is an empty prototype that focuses way more on AI technology than anything fun or meaningful, don't buy it right now. maybe when the game fully releases it'll be better but the direction seems kind of flawed from the start.
this game is extremely early access.
think of sims, except instead of a team of people very deliberately putting lots of stuff together for tons of different contexts, it's all run by a shitty AI.
the foundation is fine, and i do like some of the ideas the game is going for, but it really seems like they focused way too much on random AI features instead of making an actual game.
the graphics are also pretty on the surface, but completely fall apart in motion. no matter what settings you're playing on it's going to look bad. i really, really hate modern rendering techniques. sims 2 looks better than this shit because it's actually a stable image and it's pretty clean too.
definitely DO NOT BUY until they really get more stuff here. there's barely anything to do and there are only some extremely specific things you can interact with. going to school is a rabbithole, which is horrible when you consider that the in-game time even on the fastest setting is ridiculously slow. i've got it set to 48 minute days, the lowest one, whereas sims 4's default is 24 minutes. if it could be sped up more that would be fine, but it still goes by really slowly especially when there's like nothing to do. NPCs seemingly never talk to your character, you have to initiate every interaction and they'll often just walk away after you say one thing unless you queue things up.
it does kind of feel like this game is leaning way more into AI features than being a life sim, like why in the absolute fuck did they spend so much time developing AI that can track movements onto a character? there's no point whatsoever.
played for not even 5 hours and yeah, it just made me want to play sims instead. there's really a whole lot of nothing here and that's a pretty good way to describe it. there's a lot of shit, it's just that none of it is actually meaningful or valuable at all.
paralives can't come soon enough.
this is what inZOI looks like without any anti-aliasing, DLSS, or raytracing in 1080p. high settings. completely unacceptable. all of that crust rapidly flickers, too.

It looks like ThinkPenguin launched a new proxy service that allows you to buy almost any physical goods from any clearnet shop anonymously.

@beardalaxy @bajax the psychology behind abuse coping mechanism is that the artist feels in control when she (mostly she for obvious reasons) is drawing, being in absolute control over a picture after experiencing trauma of completely losing control
subconscious is also playing a role: like, you can even detect children who are going through some kind of abuse based on not only what they draw, but how they draw it (with caution, naturally, because evil monster in a picture can turn out to be a cartoon character)
drawing and other creative outlets also might help to channel intrusive thoughts into something productive and healthy, art therapy is a thing (plus the action of traditional drawing is a good way to stim)
and no matter how pedos would want to think otherwise, even completely pedophilia-focused intrusions, like P-OCD, are not equal to pedophilia as attraction, nor are a "gateway"; and it's become a problem with younger adults who experience some kind of OCD, get wrongpilled online about lines on paper having more rights than real people, and begin to cope in a very destructive way; while older millennials and x-ers would more likely just become furries or something
lolicon can also simply exist as "I like cute art, therefore I make cute art", and in general it's not a gateway to pedophilic actions in the same way as playing FPS games is not a gateway to shooting your school
