Big fan of SBC gaming, open source engine recreations/source ports, gaming in general, alternative operating systems, and all things modding.
Trying to post and comment often in an effort to add to Lemmy’s growth.
On a related note for anyone interested there are a lot of programs out there for using other peripherals such as webcams, Xbox 360 Kinects, PSVR cameras and headsets, and so on for VR on PC.
iVRy Driver and Driver4VR are some pretty popular paid programs on Steam that assist with the setup process.
/r/PSVRHack is neat if you are in that ecosystem.

It depends if I feel the death is deserved and if I’m having fun.
If I’m playing something like Battlefield and keep dying because of someone’s skills with a plane I’m fine with that and it definitely feels like it’s on me. If it’s someone sliding around shipment in Call of Duty mobile killing me as soon as I spawn and I’m lucky if I end their kill streak I feel like that’s on the game because of baked in mechanics being frustrating to counter.
I would say it’s definitely the most noticeable with games like Elden Ring. I suck so bad at them but I feel like I deserve each death and don’t feel irritated by dying.
It’s only in situations where someone is hacking that I would actually blame another player.
Maybe the blog that is hosted on a Nintendo Wii. It’s not the most practical hack but I find console modding really neat and the “because I can” style projects are particularly fascinating to me.
Some other favorite hacks are a bit more practical and have to do with extending the life of existing products. RebbleOS, for example, is an open source firmware that took off after Pebble shutdown following their acquisition by FitBit in 2016. It’s allowed people to continue using their e-ink Pebble watches largely unchanged. They can still do things like fetch the weather and voice dictation.
