ch00f,

I remember having my mind blown in college when I saw a Mac Pro tower running Ubuntu in a lab.

ch00f,

Just seemed odd to pay your way into the Apple ecosystem just to wipe it and install Ubuntu

ch00f,

Yeah I think they needed horsepower to run some sophisticated models in Matlab, and Apple had a killer educational discount.

ch00f,

They should have aimed at the non-stainless steel portion. Pretty sure you could wipe this up easy with some acetone or gasoline as a solvent.

ch00f,

Oh man! I didn’t know this game was on PC! Has been on my must-play list for years, but it was a PlayStation exclusive.

Choo choo!

Bravely Default 3DS (lemmy.world)

I finally blew the dust off of my copy of Bravely Default for the 3ds… I’m only a few hours in but this might be the most beautiful jrpg I’ve played on this console. The story so far seems somewhat stereotypical, but the art is gorgeous and the gameplay has been amazing so far! Just wanted to share!

ch00f,

Color scheme and layout reminds me of Machinarium.

ch00f,

I don’t understand! Where do you think the train is going to go? They don’t exactly come out of nowhere.

What’s the play here? Does she not know that people upload highly inaccurate or blatantly fake photos to dating sites all the time?

What problem does this solve?

ch00f,

She was actually made up to be pretty ugly for most of the first season, but they hotted her up at the end as the result of some magic shit.

I watched it once four years ago, so don’t remember the details.

ch00f,

Never beat it as a kid, finally 100%ed it when 3D all stars came out.

Honestly? If feels very rushed. Elements like Yoshi are hardly used, the final boss stage is short and finicky, the pachinko machine is 100% broken, and the blue coin collection is needlessly difficult and unrewarding.

I think when I first played it I was blown away by how good it looked, but playing as an adult, I’m more just disappointed in how messy and unrefined it can be at times.

ch00f,

Literally all you get for 100%ing it is a postcard. Such bs.

[Question] What to spend money on for server upgrade? (lemmy.world)

I’ve been running a headless Ubuntu server for about 10 years or so. At first, it was just a file/print server, so I bought a super low power motherboard/processor to cut down on the energy bill. It’s a passively cooled Intel Celeron J3455 “maxed out” with 16BG of RAM....

ch00f,

For the home market, there was an incentive to make the game hard to beat before you had to return it to Blockbuster.

ch00f,

Funny, didn’t an earlier version of the trailer say “and the studio behind The Boys and Free 2-day Shipping”?

Now it says “fast delivery” with an asterisk.

ch00f,

From my understanding, it was created by a very passionate team who had to make what turned out to be a very ambitious game from scratch (no game engine to pull from) with very limited hardware.

They even had to invent their own audio compression algorithm to fit the game's soundtracks on the disc.

ch00f,

Never played it personally, but I remember being really satisfied with the sounds from Hawken watching the gameplay trailers. https://youtu.be/udEAEARD-Fo

Edit: reading up on it, the final game was pretty lame, and it’s apparently dead now.
