I do

Mine works. Sometimes it gives me a “recommended” podcast from my list instead of what I was listening to, but I just enter the app and go to queue and select th one at the top.



I’ve not heard of self hosted or ask Noah.

What are they about?


This might make sense if you keep the image?

Like download time #1527473, and next time you fly over that one it already has it so no need to download…

Or is it as dumb as possible and each time…


They fucked everyone with 2022.

7 weeks then “no longer supported” was so much bad will they never recovered.




Mods. The hours come from that.

I started with just bobs mods. Vanilla takes me 15-30 hours. Bobs it’s about 60. If you have never tried mods, and want to make the game a little bit more (and have already finished vanilla), bobs is an excellent start.

Next is Bob + angels. Combined this dials up the complexity, base size, and forces you to think a bit more. 120 hours to finish

Seablock - this takes the above and forces you to work with no space at all - very cool. But long. 300 hours.

Space exploration. 500 hours for this.


I did 5500 hours, then stopped at the time of announcement.

This way it will be fresh n magical.

Dream of blue chips


The only thing to hurt steam will be Gabe dying




Let me give you the drug choices options:

Bob’s mod: adds complexity without going too crazy. If vanilla takes you 20-39 hours, bobs will take 50-60 hours. Absolutely recommend this point to start.

Bobs + Angels: my personal favorite - adds a lot more complexity, but still building on the above. Ore processing is huge and awesome. Expect finishing between 100 hours and 150.

Seablock: takes the above but makes it space restrictive - which is hard considering based are gigantic. Very cool mod, 300 hours average.

SE: doesn’t use the bob/angel set, but is still a huge undertaking. Very few finish it, 500 hours is about the average I’ve seen posted.


Yep.

For the simple response - they group all the searches from your location based on IP, and the results are weighted from that.

So if your town has a airshow on, all the DDG users that search for airshow near you will bump those responses up the weighting scale for all uses in your area. Regardless of you search for it.


Correct.

Yesterday Yoshi (valve dev that seems to be running deadlock - he is the one doing all the announcements on the discord) posted a video showing super early deadlock footage on how far they have come.

The old footage used a stack of old models and items that were left over from other games. This is all that is


Or it could be voice lines for their other new game that is currently in “invite your friends” beta.



Yep.

I pirated Factorio way back when it first came out (0.72?) and I actually didn’t like it. It was… Bad.

A few months later someone suggested I give it another go, so I pirated it again. It was a lot better. Like way better. I did a couple of months and was like … this is soooo good I’m buying it.

I will pre buy the dlc the moment it’s available.





Another excellent example of this working is Factorio.

The original game doesn’t cost a fortune, it’s made by a small extremely dedicated team. They polished it so hard the shine made everything else look like vanta black. Playing Factorio ruins other games because the depth and quality of everything else is so poor in comparison.

The game came out in like 2013 early access. Full release completed in 2020. A decade after initial launch, they are going to offer a DLC, that will cost money.

Absolutely happy to pay for a DLC for that perfection.


I have a pair of these and I absolutely love them, so much so I convinced a few others to get them too.

Two of us have since had mic issues over he last couple of years where the mic is garbled and not clear. Not sure if it’s a uemser error or issue with them.

Other than that they have good batter, good ange from base, easy to setup, good audio quality, good controls, don’t weigh too much. Would buy again.





Side note question on this.

Where is the largest TF2 community?

Reason I ask is that valve would be unlikely to monitor anywhere for feedback, but if they did put any effort in, it would be wherever the largest active community resides.

Is that reddit or some other forum?



I had a friend who said it was cheating.

When we would LAN he would just get the lightning gun and jump in the water if there were people in it.



The DLC will do very well.

It will be an insta buy for a significant percentage of the player base, and will also be overwhelmingly positive.


I’m not buying a switch 2 till I’ve seen the issue is resolved


I bought BF 4 during covid for $10.

I got about 150 hours worth before most of the guns were unlocked. Pretty happy with that. There was no new patches, seasons or any other junk to deal with




Not every big company does this.

I work for a fortune 500. We had a “the customers are not going to be pleased” change get pushed to us, and a lot of internal backlash/pushback prevented it from happening.

A competitor then did the thing we stopped, and got reamed by the public hard enough to set the standard of “your a dumbass if you even think about this”.


Yin and yang.

Google is aware of it and blocked it last time so telling people about it isn’t anything new.



That’s the thing that’s funny about this.

Some auto brands would ignore it, and some might actually take these requests seriously due to the legal ramifications if they don’t.
