I’m waiting neither due to bugs nor because high price. I’m waiting because adult life happened and I simply don’t have time to play. I still have even games I bought decade(s) ago and I haven’t touched yet… Yeah, yet, definitely yet. Will try to insert appropriate meme later.
Try Vikunja, it might tick the box for you.
You have quite a big inches in Germany, my friend.
I was buying new (used) car half a year ago. There were two reasons why I ended with ICE again.
Price. EV, even used ones, are so damn expensive it’s just not for normal people. Everyone is saying how they lose value instantly and so on, but when I look at the market, even the cheapest ones (over 10 years old Nissan Leaf that will do less than 80 km on battery at summer) are ridiculously priced compared to ICE of the same age and similar specs. At least that’s what it is in my country.
Chargers. I live in an appartement without garage, parking on the street. No way to charge it with “cheap household electricity” over night. There are I believe 3 chargers in my ~15k town and every single one is ridiculously overpriced. 1 kWh there costs almost as half a litre of gas. Considering fuel/electricity consumption, this is making the cost per km of both options virtually identical for me.
Everyone around me is very EV-skeptical and old fashioned. I’m not and I’m cheering for EVs. So I really wanted to switch, but hell it wasn’t making any sense yet.
Well, I did not even know this. And I’ve played HELL OF A LOT of Diablo 2 over LAN years and years ago. But ever since then I’ve had no use for LAN play… LAN parties were a thing decade and half ago (at least where I live) and playing with my game buddy was simplified over internet (steam, battle.net). I still remember dark days of convincing Hamachi to work…
While Denuvo is bad, there’s light on the end, because it will get removed from the game 100% in the future (due to licensing costs).
This can’t be said about Ubisoft shitlauncher on the other hand, unfortunatelly. This sucker is here to stay and ruin games for as long as Ubisoft will care. And once they decide it costs too much, bye bye games…
I agree remasters are hit or miss.
Take Diablo 2 for example, which is epic level of remaster. The game is virtually identical to the original. It’s just working better on modern hardware and can be played in high resolution with shinier graphics. But you can still turn it to (almost) 1:1 copy of original with single keypress. I’m all for this.
And now take Warcraft 3 remaster from the “same Blizzard”… This is an example of how things should NOT be done.
Given both these coming from the same company, there’s no telling in how any remaster will turn out in the end. Which is… not very reassuring?
Yes.
The best example of this is any game from Piranha bytes. Especially first Gothic was prime example. You’re such a piece of sht at the beginning that every single even the most basic creature will give you hard time killing it or will smash you with one hit in case of stronger ones.
But as you level up and get better gear things will change drastically. Even couple levels or stronger weapon will enable you to progress to new part of map, because now you’re able to finally kill the pack of wild flies guarding the passage.
Few levels later you can even go through forest without constant fear of wolf attack. And at the end you smash shadowbeasts like it’s nothing… This feels awesome and that’s what level scaling absolutely ruins.
Thank you, will have to check the docs… I remeber someone told me it can’t import folder structure, but it’s been a while.
How does it store images? Does it make one huge pile and sort it by metadata and external db magic?
… as is Windows Recall /s
IIRC: about decade ago Ubuntu (still with its own Unity DE) processed system search in a way it shoveled amazon ads to users in first places. Or something lime that.
I don’t mind long winded books as long as it’s still interesting read with things happening. I’m really looking forward to reading this.
I really like what I’ve read from him, although it wasn’t that much. Book of some short horror stories and The Stand, which was really amazing (to the point I watched that mediocre TV series with Gary Sinise, which was quite let down after the book). I’ve also recently got Under the Dome, so that’ll be my next read I think.
I’ve heard of it, but did not read it (yet). The story I wrote about was from early 60s, which made it quite unique IMO.
I’ve read a short story with similar theme from mostly unknown local author. It was called something like “vampire car” and the car did not use fuel, but blood from the driver’s foot instead. Due to this it was unbelievably fast, but deadly.
I wonder what’s everyone doing with KDE? I’ve been using it for over 3 years on my PC and it was always rock solid for me. It’s openSUSE Tumbleweed with all AMD build.
Truth be told I don’t customize it heavily. Just minor tweaks here and there with the rest being default, which I find good enough.
