You didn’t engage with it but have spent the equivalent of 6 weeks of full time work in the game?
Maybe I’m setting my bar too low, but for a video game I expect to get 1hr enjoyment per dollar spent for me to consider a game ‘worthwhile.’
That aside, I agree it would be nice to have a more lived in feel in NMS, cities, a feel of civilization.
There was no mention of child abduction in the comment I was replying to. I was trying to underscore the point that including demonstrably false information in an opinion piece weakens the piece as a whole.
Maybe she did. Doesn’t change the fact that using misattributed quotes tends to diminish the perception of the preceding opinion in the eyes of readers.
Except that statement wasn’t said by royalty, it’s a misattributed mistranslation of a snippet from Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s Confessions.
It was written 9 years before Marie Antoinette became queen and while she was still a child and had not yet traveled to France.
This is a classic case of the victors writing history. This quote has been used countless times to try to illustrate that the royalty was out of touch (which I’m neither arguing for nor against here,) however there’s no evidence it was ever spoken by the Queen - indeed it wasn’t attributed to her at all for many years after her death.
The IoT edition of Windows 11 runs in 4GB ram and performs ok. I don’t recommend more ram, I recommend either Linux or LTSC IoT.
Some things have survived, like CUPS…but yeah, their track record isn’t great.
You mean like the one that Plex provides with Plex pass?
I haven’t been able to find a free proxy provider that is ok with streaming video. Closest I’ve found is CloudFlare, and video streaming isn’t permitted on their free tier.
Plex pass is a lot cheaper for me than paying for CloudFlare’s non-free tiers, especially since I got myself a lifetime pass 3 years ago.
Plex’s remote play works for me when I’m away from home - which is on starlink. Jellyfish does not, because starlink uses cgnat. 🤷
I’m not using either of those. I’m using the LMDE default, Cinnamon.
I’ve been using LMDE for the past couple years and I do all my non-switch gaming on it.
I’m more concerned about ‘AI’ telling people incorrect information - and that information being further indexed and presented as fact elsewhere.
It’s a compounding problem
I just asked 2 IT guys “hey, do you know what punycode is?” And the answer I received was “I’ve heard of it but don’t know what it is.”
Thank you for informing me, but I’m far from alone in not recognizing it or having knowledge of what punycode is.
Looks like a totally legit domain. Much trusting.
I run audiobookshelf through it and it works flawlessly.
I think he’s not concerned about much besides himself.
Sure, but one is rude to people that deliver bad work to him, the other is rude to people that don’t accept his bad work from him.
Funny how we’ve forgotten already the rage and backlash from users when it was revealed you could never completely disable telemetry in windows 10.
Now the general attitude is ‘well, it’s not as bad as 11.’
For the better part of a decade I used windows only for gaming, and now I’ve dropped it for that too.
I’m not sure why some people still refuse to consider using an alternative to windows these days.
Vulnerable? Do you have examples? I’m not aware of any.
Or maybe they’re developers that are tired of the wheel being reimplemented?
