I’m sorry what the heck is that Blade Runner reference.

Edit after skimming the article: It’s internal codenames for the controllers I think.


Story is the least important part of Stalker series (there’s 3 previous games).


Everyone who bought in defending the practices is a perfect example of cultish behaviour and copium.

Heck, I bought in, but I only paid $20. And I never played a minute.


It’s even more hilariously bad because they recast a veteran series actor in a new role. Until retirement and beyond!


I tried to sign up a while ago and had some issues, like link not arriving or something. Shame because I like the idea. Will try again I suppose.


So glad I didn’t pull the trigger on a laptop last month. I was leaning AMD but some intel offerings looked nicer and cheaper. I guess that’s one of the reasons.


Godot had a visual scripting feature, but apparently nobody used or maintained it so it got cut.



Well the good news is yoi don’t have to upgrade anything, or everything at once. You can get the display now and when your CPU isn’t enough switch mobo and ram then.


Saying mods are not an integral part of a Bethesda game is a real hot take there.

If you want to see how devs should approach mod makers so it works out for everyone, take a look at Ludeon does it with Rimworld.


FYI Old Gods of Asgard are basically Poets of the Fall, a real band that collaborated with Remedy at least since Max Payne 2.

If I listened to Late Goodbye on tape you couldn’t hear it anymore with how I much I abused it.



If treestyletabs worked on mobile that would work great. Just make the tabs bigger. Then again I think the UI is totally different on mobile so I feel the pain.

I have been using firefox on a phone since 2014 at least. I particularly like I can just go “send this tab to my PC” and it’ll just be there without bothering with bookmarks, note apps, emails to myself or such.

I once had a text file on a VPS I would ssh on my phone to and paste links into. Blah.


Google is notorious for A/B testing (usually a good idea) so they roll out changes in batches and look at telemetry for any changes in user behaviour. You might just be the lucky late adopter for those changes that someone tested for you a month earlier.


Reports of months of crunch before Cyberpunk’s release make the image pretty clear. There’s bunch of small indies and some midsized contractor companies in Poland, but not many on AAA level. Techland, CDP and People Can Fly (I think they are independent from Epic again?) are the only ones I can think of. Oh 11bit maybe.


Any organisation that invests in physical hardware that requires cloud to work is bonkers. Those whiteboards don’t need cloud. And google is too big to care for long term customer satisfaction.



At least the general idea behind language models isn’t proprietary and fairly well available in ooen source. Sure, GPT is better, but it could change.
