I can’t resist a system that allows for endless tweaking.

So you actually chose KDE, right?

You mean like fuck the whole world in the ass like it’s happening now?

Isn’t it on flathub?

Same for me. I was using foobar2000 back on windows. When I switched to linux I found out I set up my foobar basically the same as vanilla Clementine was set. So I was sold instantly. Later switched to Strawberry, because I felt Clementine is too long dead and it also started to glitch icons on newer qt for me. Strawberry is great.

I wonder when Trump returns Alaska to Russia. Could be next week, judging by his current pace.

86? That’s like the double of our entire company management combined! You’ll do good.

I’m no expert, but I’ll give you my two cents. I play bass guitar and there are two types of connectors between amplifier and speaker cabinet. First one is plain barrel jack, second one is Neutrik. I’ve been talking with local amp maker and he said something like this: "jack is fine with low wattage, but with more power you’d do better with neutrik - it has much larger contact area " So I believe this is similar problem. We were speaking like 400-600W of power where jack starts to be worse. How about vacuum cleaner or kettle? Or similar appliance that can do 2kW… Small contact and higher drain means more heat generated in that spot.

Wrapping it up with anything involving Fred Durst feels like spit in the face honestly.

I presume you’re either not Japanese or you actually are Japanese outlaw.

I’m no genius, far from it to be honest. But I went through most parts of high school without studying because I somehow remembered stuff being talked about in class. I just recalled how the teacher said required thing and what they were connected with. It was enough to get average grades.

Uni was a bit different. I had huge problems with classes focused on just memorizing stuff. Lectures was not mandatory and most teachers were terrible at explaining stuff so I ended up missing most of those as it gave me zero benefit.

To pass the exams I had to really understand some basic procedures where applicable (math, economics, etc). And I mean really understand to what’s going on and why, not just memorizing equations. Once I grasped the basic concept it was often quite easy actually (I wasn’t aiming for As) because everything made sense out of sudden.

That’s why memorizing heavy classes were such a pain for me. There were usually no such “basics” where you can build upon. I had a classmate which was exact opposite of me. She could memorize a whole lecture book over night just by reading it once or twice. And I mean memorize like basically she could start to finish it word by word. Did she know what she was saying/writing? Often times not, but as long as the exam was written, she had straight As because she just wrote whatever the teacher wanted to be there. IDK if she had photographic memory or what, but it was completely mind boggling to me, exactly like your roommate is to you. Maybe they function the same?

Nice, thank you.

Oh come on! First Arma (Operation Flashpoint) had photorealistic graphics and played like a dream… That’s how I remembered it until I tried it 20 years later. Boy oh boy…

I started Wizardry 8 as my first one and it instantly became one of my favourites. Even though the story is somewhat continuation of 6 and 7, not knowing these is not a problem at all. It’s still interesting and well explained even for novice players. Much later I’ve tried both 6 and 7 and even though I felt I could like them and I even liked the hand made graphics, it was the user interface of the early 90s that was just too much for me.

I don’t but I wonder how close these two languages are? Since I sometimes watch Karl Rock on youtube, he apparently speaks both depending on where he is at the moment. Is it like “I understand nearly every word without even trying” or is it more like “If I focus hard enough I get the meaning of what the person is saying”?

I can tell you. It would be HUGE absolutely generic open world with AI generated characters and quests, virtually zero human made and interesting quests and gameplay would feel like filling excel spreadsheets. Somewhat like Ubisoft recepe :-D

At least that’s what original Daggerfall 's spirit would be. It was at the time where “the biggest” was simply the catchphrase and Daggerfall was exactly that. The biggest. But also very shallow and empty. Sure there were billions of quests but what for? When for one interesting there were dozens of generic ones? Don’t get me wrong, it was still a great game at the time, because players weren’t as spoiled and something was always better than nothing. At least that’s my impression.

It always amazes me how country with its own space program, with nukes, huge cultural history and beautiful nature, country trying so hard to trump Chinese expansion in Himalayas, still live in a dumpster basically.

Maybe he’s not going there to pay respect, but to learn from mistakes of the other fascists?

And don’t even get me started on that damn copy protection level “what is 7th word on 16th line on page 23 in manual”!

I’ve quite recently made run of D2 up to middle of Act V and rhen lost interest at all. It was a bit grindy, but the main problem was convenience factor. I was at the point when my summoning Druid started to lack behind and it is pretty much impossible to respec skills to fight that sort of bad decisions… When I was a teenager I’d just scratch it and start over with better build, but ain’t nobody got time for that now!

For me it would probably be most old DOS era games like Dune 2, Ultima Underworld, Warcraft 1, Civilization 1, etc. All of them were great, but it’s really difficult to get used to those old control schemes nowadays. Pixelated graphics wouldn’t bother me, but those like 15 FPS at max is also hard to get over these days.

Other than that it would be some newer games that lacks a bit of convenience stuff. Like e.g. Diablo 1, where you can’t run yet. Or some of the first 3D accelerated shooters that can’t remap controls to WASD.
