I would like to send a formal complaint to Hoyoverse #ZZZ
Stats for Drive Disc in Zenless Zone Zero. It rolled DEF% 3 times, DEF 3 times, and only CRIT Rate once and CRIT DMG once. Very sad.

I've accidentally gotten myself into a situation where I get infinite turns in the Honkai: Star Rail match-3 game mode and it's not even a match that matters, but I feel like I have to keep going #HonkaiStarRail

This bug is so annoying
Screenshot from the Microsoft Store. Three games can't be updated because of an error that just says: "Something happened on our end."

I'd argue there's a different issue going on here. Luckily other people are making these cool tags to show when an account is just stealing content for engagement:
The "SKY Explore" account is tagged with "Repost Accounts" and "Occasional AI Imagery".

Ok, YouTube stream for The Game Awards 2024 looks fixed now. Although I'm pretty sure they're still just upscaling the 1080p stream, because it definitely doesn't look like native 4K. But at least they're not using a shit upscaling method now.

For comparison, this is what the 1080p Twitch stream for The Game Awards 2024 looks like when I full-screen it on my 4K monitor.
Cropped screenshot of the 1080p Twitch stream for The Game Awards 2024. It looks much better than the 4K YouTube stream since it doesn't have ugly artifacts from bad upscaling.

Looks like the "4K" YouTube livestream for The Game Awards 2024 is once again just the 1080p upscaled using a very awful method and it looks hideous. How do they keep doing that? Actual amateurs in charge. Ridiculous.
Cropped screenshot of the YouTube live stream for The Game Awards 2024 showing some kind of stair stepping or other bad artifact from the awful upscaling method they are using.

What in the world is this person doing??? #PokemonTCGPocket
Screenshot of Pokémon TCG Pocket showing a match between me and another player. I am using a lightning deck, but my opponent is, for some reason, using a deck that includes psychic, fighting, and grass Pokémon, and psychic, grass, and water energy. Their active Pokémon a a Machoke with one grass energy and one water energy attached, meaning that it can't attack since it requires two fighting energy for that.

Looking for experts on Danish law. Would I get fined if I made a custom flag like below and put it on a flagpole after January 1, 2025?

Time for some YouTube Gaming recap.

Garry's Mod is there because of the Yogscast.
I play Honkai: Star Rail every day, but I didn't realised I also watched this many videos about it.
Minecraft and VRChat are probably there because of vtubers.
I do not remember watching a lot of Among Us this year.
A pie graph showing how much of my YouTube watch time was gaming. The text below the graph says: "8.0% of my watch time was gaming" "122" is written very big in the middle. Below that it says, in smaller text: "I watched videos about 122 different games this year" Text at the top says: "The game I watched the most this year was..." In the middle is a title image for the video game Garry's Mod. At the bottom there's text that says: "Garry's Mod" At the top the text says: "My top games of 2024 were..." Below that is a list of the 5 games I watched the most. The list is left-aligned, with the title image first, then the name of the game to the right of that. The games are: Garry's Mod, Honkai: Star Rail, Minecraft, Among Us, VRChat.
