It’s already too late. Those who wanted to weaponize it have already done so

That’s current Verge for you. It only got worse since then

Ironically, it’s news that’s free, and garbage is behind the paywall. Verge is not what people remember it being from years ago

I’ve always wanted to properly give this game a shot, but ironically, I experience pretty bad vertigo while playing it. Hasn’t happened in other games, but something about the movement system here just doesn’t work for me

I keep meaning to play the first one, it’s always looked pretty interesting to me. This looks pretty exciting for a trailer too

It’s either more AI slop, or a completely uneducated post, just to farm clicks.

The Link is literally just a remote desktop device. They turned it into an app later. It doesn’t, and can’t play anything by itself

Ubisoft are genuinely speedrunning their way towards a shutdown and a buyout

The A580 launched at 175$+tax. We are not talking about the same card

Hopefully it will bring some decent generational improvements. The only thing i’m not a huge fan of is the 45% price increase over lasts gen, which isn’t even putting used or discounted cards into consideration

That shouldn’t really be news to anyone. They’ve stretched themselves almost too thin with the scale of Elden Ring, and it’s a miracle, that it’s turned out this damn good.

But even besides that, I’d always take a well put together game every 5 years, than some uninspired yearly slop. Good games are still art

My experience is aligned with this. I’ve barely had any issues at all, especially in the 6.x cycle.

There was one pretty annoying panel bug, which was caused by Nvidia, but i’ve sent them reports, and they fixed it in the next driver release. The other one is a thirdparty addon, where under a certain setting combination, your shell would occasionally restart, but again that’s not a Plasma bug

I’ve seen a couple people attempt this. Am very curious about how exactly that will be done. Although I’ll have to say that i’ve seen far worse and/or more difficult submissions. People cook up absolutely insane code

I’ve solved the first two in Rust, and will likely keep going until I can’t anymore, just like with previous years. It’s a fun language, and i’d love some practice too

The real election danger wasn’t AI, after all. The real danger were the reckless, emotionally motivated, uneducated people.

This really is quite upsetting. Proper journalism is dying as is, but seeing homelab enjoyers write out some AI slop is just as disheartening

For nix-darwin specifically, the cleaned up build process, and SDK packaging is nice. It hasn’t eliminated all the issues, but a lot of those are less of a fault of Nix, and more an issue with macOS design. Hoping they can be addressed somehow, but for now, the issues with workarounds are tracked.

And just in general, Python has kind of been a pain in the ass to understand, so any improvement is exciting, as i’m still learning how things work here.

A bunch of packages I want got officially merged or updated during this release cycle too, and as much as I appreciate thirdparty flakes, I don’t want to rely on them too much

If you’re into older rpgs, i would wholeheartedly recommend the Gothic trilogy. Will fit just under 5$, but they’re absolutely insane value for the money. With that you’ll also get Archolos for free, which has blown all expectations away entirely. This mod ended up being better than a lot of big-budget titles I’ve played, and they’ve done it all out of pocket

Been a very exciting release.

The nix-darwin upgrades come along right as i migrated my Mac to Nix, but even outside of that, all the package and module merges are always welcome. All my machines run Nix now, so the less work I have to do manually, the better

Shit like this is one of the reasons why we’ll never be able to buy cars for a decent price. The parasites at dealerships will set markups to go through the roof

These talking points are more important than a lot of studios realize. Taking away from both your successes, and your failures, is key for iterating on good products. Meanwhile, Ubisoft blame the “toxic community” for everything they do wrong
