Obvious answer: problem solving games like infinifactory, Shenzhen I/O, Opus Magnum or spacechem. I mean, it’s literally problem solving. That’s real useful everywhere you encounter problems that need solving which is conveniently everywhere.

That’s unfortunate then. But it was worth a shot anyways. If nothing else you learned a bit about UNIX/ Linux should you ever find yourself in a situation where that may be of use again.

Unix and Linux are terms that can and have been used a bit interchangeably in the past already. It’s possible that their UNIX category is just named like that from way back in the day. If internet speed and data limits are not a concern it may be worth a shot to try if the UNIX version works on your system. Simply because Linux is UNIX based but not officially certified as UNIX.

I dunno… This might be a good read though:

Yet here I am, enjoying a game for hour 1000 and more exactly because it didn’t choose to change up how it works for the 35689 th time in what feels like two days. I don’t have all day every day anymore to dedicate to games and that’s okay what isn’t okay is that these guys expect me to be willing to learn what is effectively a completely different game constantly. I don’t want to re learn that thing every time I play, I want to enjoy it.

Maybe I am the problem, maybe not. All I know is that I can’t be bothered to only put time into one game and one game only when there are more things in life I want to do.

Nothing of value was lost…

It would certainly raise an eyebrow.

For more reasons than just the obvious ones.

No I don’t want to go into the details of those hypotheticals, thank you.

“I was not very happy with that. I think in this country, we have to work very hard because there is no substitute for hard work even if you’re the most intelligent guy,”

Dude… If you work hard despite the fact that you claim to be intelligent… You are not intelligent.

Work smart, not hard. The smart thing is to take breaks so that you can focus on what you are doing. Not working till you drop.

The crazy part isn’t that people want to be able to disable that. The crazy part is that they want to pay to disable them…

No you guys, that should just be an option, no questions asked. Included in the options menu for… Well, whatever the asking price of the base game is. Also known as included in the base game.

Right. AI music? Hopefully not, it is likely going to lead to generic slop that may infringe on other artists copyright. AI Podcasts? OH GOD NO! factual news isn’t working with AI and you guys think that opinions with AI is a good idea? Are you crazy?

Now music recommendations? That might just work given that algorithms are already doing a decent job at presenting new ( to the particular user, not by actual age) music that the user may enjoy. The question really is if that is actually better than what we already have. And there is only one way to find out, which is by testing it and then being honest about it.

Dark Souls.

You need to play NG+ and a fair bit of NG++ to be able to get everything on one character.

The hottest year on record… So far.

Probably 5 minutes or so. 10 if I include the time spent driving there. Usually it’s quiet enough that it’s not waiting in line but rather waiting to have everything sorted out.

Obviously… Ubisoft

Come on… Shitty safety measures have never, ever, in the history of mankind led to catastrophic events with a lasting fallout. -some government that collapsed

After all after some point safety is just pure waste of money. -some dead CEO

It doesn’t take enshittification for something real bad to happen. All it takes is time. Add the mentioned enshittification and corner cutting and we know for sure what will happen…

Or how the saying in EvE online goes : it’s not a question on if your ship gets blown up but a question of when it gets blown up.

Blocked instance… They can figure their stuff out without me because I don’t want anything to do with them.

Cool. But I can’t help the fact that it feels like a potential security risk to me. It is not unknown just how low they can stoop to get their way so I would expect that to be no different there.

I do give a shit, and at this point I want to see that platform taken down for good. Because otherwise it’s a platform for nefarious shit and abuse. And no one needs that. Especially not the gullible.

Everyone else could just say :" the rules say… But you don’t give a fuck about the rules so we won’t do that either. Get dumped…" And then just exclude him everywhere and revoke their access and all that. But that is unlikely to happen for reasons. But they could…

A game I only bought because someone else wanted to play that together on a private LAN party. That person then announced that they couldn’t show up. And since I was terribly uninterested in playing that game on my own and only bought it for just that occasion, I refunded it after that news.
