God I wish that were me
God I wish that were me
I’m still running windows for now, but even then Vulkan has de-fucked a few games for me. Given the option, always Vulkan.
I don’t hate the technology, I hate that I cannot chose where and when to use it. Consent is quite important.
We barely use the regular mines on my runs, I feel like the anti tank mines are pretty situational
Wow crazy how could we have predicted this
Hell yeah brother
I legit would rather save the children, if nothing else to keep the meme of never acquiring the anti tank mines
Honestly to God, while I get wanting to play an updated version of games you love, I played through the original trilogy off of gog a few months ago, and they have stood up remarkably well. I can’t help but see all of this as a bit silly.
God I hope so, but the next thing will likely be even more stupid than this, NFTs and crypto.
Any recommendations for a beginner or hobbiest? I’m going to assume it goes beyond writing more performant code
That sucks my dude, it sounds like some really shitty people ruined something you liked. So far I’ve found that the only way to protect yourself against that stuff is to set healthy boundaries. It doesn’t have to be rude, but unfortunately some people see it that way. It’s a rough time.
I think it’s nice of you not to be mean. The industry turned me a bit mean as a defence against people constantly shoveling more work onto me. Try to protect it if you can! I miss my lack of mean dearly.
I agree with this. We already have a situation where we don’t have feasible alternatives to the primary method, Google search comes to mind. With Linux, even if every company in the world goes down, nerds will still want to play with the technology.
Or the people that are from slightly different parts of the country from you?
That’s actually a really good idea
Nah I live in Australia and we also do bad Australian accents recreationally no shame
Well can’t have all the wage slaves escaping to Mexico
Honestly this behaviour comes off as some way to enact a loss leading strategy. Thing is, I can’t figure out what they would be trying to sell here?
Like making everyone use an account for Sony games does not lessen the blow of potentially paying for online, or using a hypothetical PC Sony store, or buying a PS5. It honestly feels like they’re just incredibly out of touch and don’t understand what the hell they’re doing.
I had nitro riders in my childhood, it’s a pain to get it up and running these days but the nostalgia is worth it.
Was relocating a $10k piece of networking hardware and dropped it into another 10k VM server. Server was fine, network hardware was not. It was during a project that was a real mess, thought it was a stupid mistake though.
We were able to work around it, though we did lose the contract we were trying to make. Honestly though given how rushed and panicked that whole three months was though, we were lucky nobody suffered anything worse. Real shitshow.
