This is how I found out the game even existed.

Welp, yo ho yo ho.

I threw your list into PC Part Picker (which has built-in compatibility checking) and it flagged no significant issues.

The warning relates to old, used motherboards, not brand new ones.

Feels more like Flicky than Lemmings, heh

If you wanna make an ass out of yourself as well, I’m not gonna stop you.

Wow, so many reply guys crawling out of the woodwork today… I must’ve struck a nerve or something.

Thank you for the information. I’ll change my entire personality just to suit your preferences, shall I? /s

Seriously though, you know where the block button is, I’m not for everyone and that’s okay. :)

In Soviet Russia, papers check you! /j

I know who he is. Don’t assume, it makes an ass out of u. Just wishing AAA devs would do the same tbh rather than hype games up only to cancel them.

Anti-clickbait version: Wine’s gonna load custom DLLs automatically if they weren’t signed by Microslop.

This kind of behaviour is a win from the player’s perspective too, no hype for a game that might never happen or might come out after 11 years and still be crap, heh

What have you done other than complain on the internet?

Precisely as much as my means allow, which is fuck all. What have you done other than simp for billionaires and sealion on the internet?

Honestly, it’s not his responsibility to fix the world.

Yes it fucking is. What the hell am I supposed to do other than occasionally turn a blind eye while grannies shoplift 65p packets of biscuits? Which, if my boss is reading this, I obviously would never ever do. He has the means to actually do it.

Normalising digital restrictions management and renting games rather than owning them. He didn’t start it. But he sure as hell normalised it.

Holding a near-monopolistic position in PC gaming and taking a one-third cut of most PC games sold, and an up-front fee to be allowed to sell your game in the first place.

And then spending that eye-popping sum of money on multiple yachts rather than, I don’t know, maybe improving the world even a little?

Oh no, I’m not suggesting it.

I’m outright saying it.

Fuck you Tim Sweeney for making Gabe Newell appear even remotely good by comparison

edit: I’m muting this thread, so much sealioning and astroturfing in here

I Don’t Love AI Slop Myself

Then stop acting like you do!

I’m looking forward to seeing what the modding community does with this

Nice for me and you but that doesn’t mean people who can’t switch deserve to be treated like shit.

“I’m alright, Jack” :eyeroll:

Cigarette company says you’re “Completely wrong” about smoking causing cancer.

Isn’t this just upscaling?

edit: No. It really isn’t.

Myrient and AI

The AI industry frenzy undoubtedly contributed to the original Myrient archive’s soaring costs, ahead of its closure announcement. Perhaps ironically, if Myrient hadn’t been saved, retro fans may have looked to AI to generate copies of their favorite apps and games of yesteryear?

Holy fucknuggets Tom’s Hardware has gone way downhill.

Again, Steam does a fine job of that. Add the installer as a non-Steam game, set compatibility, “play” it, then when it’s finished change the shortcut to point to the actual game.

Heroic and Steam.

Heroic for GOG and Epic games.

Steam for literally everything else: add the .exe as a non-Steam game, find it in your library, go into its properties, set Compatibility > Force Compatibility Mode > Proton Experimental.

I already wouldn’t have gone to that country if you paid me. They let any idiot carry a fucking gun.

Don’t underestimate the power of inertia.

The reputational damage has already been done and people still haven’t moved to a better and more sustainable solution, so why would they back down now?

No clue, I’m not on discord, just trying to be helpful

For info:

Group voice calls

They’re testing that right now. It’s going well.

A server system that is separated from DMs/group chats, at least visually

Spaces.

Roles within those servers to manage people’s access

Spaces can do that.

Legcord’s fake nitro is free.

GOG. The for-profit company that’s soliciting donations under its “GOG Patrons” scheme.

5000 people literally giving a for-profit company money, and GOG couldn’t pay a graphic design apprentice to draw an abstract banner?

Does anyone know if there’s a game/mode/mod/whatever similar to Applied Energistics 2? It was a really cool take on storage and autocrafting that I’d love to play around more with.

TSA was bad enough. Even if you’re white.

I’m sorry for her loss and I don’t blame her in the slightest.

I wouldn’t go to that country if you paid me. I like being alive, thanks.

I bought one game on Epic, once.

It didn’t work.

I contacted them for a refund.

I never received a reply.

Lesson learned.

I’m looking forward to Palword Legends Y-X

I thought everyone had heard this meme by now.

I edited my post to add the source.

To spell this out clearly, the reason RAM has quadrupled in price is that a huge quantity of RAM that hasn’t been produced yet has been bought with money that doesn’t exist to populate GPUs that also haven’t been produced to go in datacenters that haven’t been built powered by infrastructure that may never exist to meet a demand that doesn’t exist at all to make profit margins that mathematically can’t exist while economists talk about this thing they call the “rational markets hypothesis”.

I’ve literally never heard it with a -m before. Usually it’s just “tada”. :)

What the heck is a ta-da-m? It sounds like some kind of exotic medication 🤭
