LESS THAN 7 SECONDS??? Holy cow, my 3060 takes 4... this is optimization sorcery.

As someone with all Sony consoles... it's good, but even first party titles barely use it. Usually it's just used as a button, sometimes multiple (GT7 gives you turn indicators to the sides and emergency blinkers on the center, for example).

As a track pad it's honestly a perfectly fine one. That said! PS4 and PS5 ones are very similar from the point of view of pc gaming, you get the usb port to be a type C, haptic feedback instead of the ancient rumble motors and uh what dumb name they gave to the triggers... adaptive triggers? Cool tech. So in short right now you get rumble that works different and in the future will be better as games start to use it, a better usb, and triggers that only Sony games use right now.

For comparison the Xbox Series controller have the ancient rumble motors (so in other words Steam/Sony/Nintendo are haptic, Microsoft isn't) that every game has been using since the rumble pack/Dual Shock, it has no track pad, no motion sensor, and rumble triggers that are kinda dumb but in Forza Horizon 5 they are extremely good at making you feel the loss of grip. If you have no preference about the shape, Sony gives you the most advanced and complete hardware that will give you the full experience in titles that can use it, all for the same price. Downside, there's a shitton of stuff in there and the triggers have a motor each, so the battery won't last as long. Also pretty rgb lol.

I also have an 8BitDo one shaped like the Sony ones and it's good. Simple tech, barebones, works well. Less expensive.

Right now if I could have the perfect controller it would be the PS5 one but with hall effect sticks that are touch sensitive like the Deck's ones, plus the rear buttons. Damn near the PS5 pro controller tbh.

The Nintendo Pro controller needs a warning: triggers are not analog, they're normal buttons. On the Switch you don't notice its too much because no game uses them, but otherwise it's an important bit of information. Even something simple like Grand Theft Auto is going to be worse for it as soon as driving comes into the picture.

Same one I use, also made an enclosure to 3D print and protect it from rain. It's been going on without issues since 2020 https://www.printables.com/model/169425-xiaomi-aquara-thermometer-outdoor-case

Little known thing, Netflix offers free mobile games to subscribers, and one of them is Into the Breach. https://apps.apple.com/it/app/into-the-breach/id1616542180?

Last time I checked it had no cloud save though, but still it's a great way to decide if you want to buy it or not!

As far as I can tell based on the numbers (and me having both a 3060 and an M2 Mac) the base M2, thanks to the ML cores, sits between 1080 and 1080ti levels of performance.

Perfect, thanks! 🖖

This is my "poking" and so far I at least got their attention ( https://startrek.website/comment/222557 ) so we'll see how it goes. I can't imagine this being intentional, just a misunderstanding. Now, maybe it's tricky to change whatever setting that is, I don't know, but that's a different matter :)

There's no other languages to select for accounts made here on startrek.website, that's the problem.

I see there's a bit of confusion, understandably as different servers are set up differently from each other: this is the entire list

That should help visualize the issue :)

[–] Stampela@startrek.website 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

In this instance (at the moment?) the only option is undetermined. Try giving a look at https://lemm.ee/c/meta (from your own server, no need to look far) and then trying again after you have selected only undefined in your options. Pinned posts are marked as english, so those won't be visible anymore.

Or anyway that's the theory, again I'm a noob.

The results are still the same, not having other options as a user makes any external communities lose content. Is there a way to keep the local stuff as it is, but giving users more languages to choose from?
