It only took 3 hours for someone to upload the first Oblivion Remastered gooner mod

lol, I’m from a time when “official mod support” was but a dream

















I hope its active enough in the Lemmy-verse to support it, I always considered that kind of comm to almost require a large amount of people to make it useful

Then again, the Lemmy-verse is full of nerds soooo ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯










Yea, if you update your game with new stuff that causes performance issues on older things, then just put up a warning about it and call it good

Sometimes these companies do way too much





>This is one Direct before the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct on April 2nd that’s coming up soon

What Sony could do is patch restrictive DRM software into all their games that checks the hardware info and fails to boot if you’re on “an xbox”.

They’d definitely do that, they’ve already used what amounted to a Rootkit for DRM in the mid-2000s, so your idea wouldn’t even be the worst they’ve done lolol




>I spent a week of my life doing this so you don't have to. Today we're gonna try and use the OneCore API to run modern games on Windows XP! Will anything work? Or will I spend over a hour troubleshooting a bunch of problems? Featuring: CLI Epic Games client lolol

Really hoping (He probably does) he has a succession plan in place to prevent that when he’s gone


GameMaker Studio is going strong.

Now that is a name I haven’t heard in a very long time


Well if it’s anything like EVE online these “wars” are rather resource intensive on the underlying infrastructure lol


Thanks for the tip! Looks like Brighter Shores is headed by none other than Andrew Gower himself, so it’s probably the most RuneScapiest RuneScape successor lmao

FlyKnight kinda looked like RuneScape, but I think I’d rather try out Brighter Shores lol


Might be a by-product of their uber strict work philosophy


least pirate it.

Don’t gotta tell me twice lmao

It’s a shame really, Sony is one of the last of the prolific single player AAA producers, everyone else seems intent on shoveling multi-player crap out and maybe doing SP as an after thought:(



Yup, I haven’t been able to get back into RS3 for years now when in the past I’ve been able to at least have annual stretches of play

There’s OSRS still, for the moment “uncorrupted”, but it’s basically starting fresh even when your account existed when OSRS was Runescape


We’re kinda there already, the OnePlus Open can be had for ~1,300 which should be about right around a “high end smartphone + tablet”

Plus, foldys have been on the market long enough now that you can snag a good deal on the used/refurb market if you’re patient



Ig, but you can expect a Li-ion to last about 2-3 years, it’s not that much of a chore to open it up every 3 years, especially after the first time


If you already opened it to install this, why didn’t you just buy an actual replacement from China?

ETA:

This is (probably) a Blackview Tab 12 Pro

I found a proper replacement ranging in price from $10 to $30 depending on if you wanted a Stateside store and faster ship or willing to wait for AliExpress.

This is a solution in search of a problem


Straight outta the scummy debt collector playbook


Search on my screen stopped working reliably for me a while ago, and it didn’t work in apps that are blocking screenshots/sharing


Not sure what CtS is using, but I don’t think it’s the normal screen capture API, because it works in apps that block screenshots


Nobody’s forcing you to be here.



Seriously? A source on the authoritarianism of China? Oh idk, there’s the Great Firewall of China, um the whole Winnie the Pooh thing. Why don’t you go-to China and start posting “Fuck Xi” and see how quickly you get arrested. At least here I can say “Fuck Biden”, or Fuck Trump without worry.

Oh, I’m on .ml that explains everything so this’ll probably get removed to, can’t have the truth breaking through on .ml lmao


Pretty good, if only their Government wasn’t so authoritarian with a habit of making people “disappear”








Use Librewolf and Mull instead.

And keep an eye on the Ladybird browser, eventually FF forks will die should FF go full-tilt enshittification, but hopefully not till Ladybird is fully ready


Ladybird is a completely new open source browser with it’s own from scratch engine, so that’s one that hasn’t been forked from any other browser


Labybird is a completely new upcoming open source browser, complete with its own from scratch engine

Theres also Servo an open source engine led by the Linux Foundation


There’s always the Ladybird browser and an independent open source browser engine called Servo that’s under The Linux Foundation


This is just the beginnings of the enshittification of FF. There are others out there, Ladybird for example, deserves our attention being built completely from scratch engine and all. Though it’s not slated to become fully usable until 2026 because, they’re building the engine from scratch lol


It was less than 2 days that Yuzu made their announcement. They didn’t carefully consider shit, they had their exit plan in case Nintendo came knocking and it was to run for the hills like cowards wasting the opportunity to set a real precedent and possibly protecting the future of other emulation projects.

And they were a company, all liability rested with the company, not the people running it, so they could have easily run it into the ground fighting and then went “whoopsy” and declared bankruptcy like so many companies have done

They were cowards.


It wasn’t completely unwinnable, it was legally untested waters and could have gone either way, had they fought and won they would have even set a precedent for future emulation projects.

This wasn’t some 2 person team project. It was a company with real money that could have fought and laid the foundation for the future safety of emulation. And because they were a company all liability laid with the company with no personal liability risk to the founders. But they didn’t, they settled in less than 2 days, tucked tail and ran with the remaining money.

Cowards.



You mean what Pocketpair is doing right now? They’re both businesses who should have known they would come up against Nintendo at some point.
