vettnerk,

Or you can do a reverse Hannah Montana, take the worst from both worlds, combine them, and release Duke Nuken 4ever

vettnerk,

So for the next 20 years all AAA game publishers will do the game equivalent of only releasing MCU/DC reboots, sequels and prequels?

vettnerk,

After mostly playing BG3 lately, I’m now back to Factorio. I figured that since my angelbob mainbuss save passed 1GB, it was time to start something new, so I decided to give Space Exploration a go. I hope to have it completed by the time the space expansion for Factorio is released.

vettnerk,

Probably a stupid question, but what does a game pass do? I’m old and crusty, and the games I like doesn’t involve them…

vettnerk,

I had forgotten all about that game until your description made uneasy memories of those boss battles awaken.

vettnerk,

I gave in to the hype and bought BG3. And this is the first time in ages where I’ve bought a brand new AAA game and not been disappointed.

I have a brand new PC, so it’s about time I ran something more demanding than Factorio on it.

vettnerk,

I know. I have an angelbob megabase save that clocks in at 788MB. To play it I need to add an additional 16GB of swap. I figured that it was about time the GPU did some heavy lifting too.

vettnerk,

I hope that, just like the series, it’s meant for adults, but kids like it too.

vettnerk,

They’re all ANSI

vettnerk,

Budget: Undecided. No hard limit, as long as it’s reasonable. maybe 150-200 usd equivalent.
Location: Norway.

Keychron looks like they have what I’m after. The Q5 looks nice.

vettnerk,

All of the Grand Theft Auto games have you respawn outside of a police station or a hospital.

vettnerk,

Leaving the hospital with thousands of dollars gone is just US developers adding realism.

vettnerk,

I wish I could forget all about Day of the Tentacle, so I could play it all over again and rediscover everything.

That whole ordeal with Red Dead Uncle Fred is hilarious, especially after IRS arrests him and restrains him with literal red tape.

What is up with Baldur's Gate 3?

This is not a criticism - I love how much attention this game has been getting. I’m just not understanding why BG3 has been blowing up so much. It seems like BG3 is getting more attention than all of Larian’s previous games combined (and maybe all of Obsidian’s recent crpgs as well). Traditionally crpgs have not lit the...

vettnerk,

What of I’m of the unpopular but firm belief that 3.5 was the pinnacle of D&D and therefore am heavily boased against 5e?

vettnerk,

Same reason but different vibe with Kali for me. I’m sure it’s good for its intended purpose, but I get the feeling that there are many who install it in an attempt at being a kewl h4x0r. I used used Parrotsec for work for a while, and it’s a lot less flamboyant about it.

vettnerk,

One word: snapd

If you like the idea of ubuntu, but wish to avoid ubuntu, you might want to check out Linux Mint.

vettnerk,

I actually like Gentoo for the same reason you hate it. But I was a FreeBSD guy for around 10 years before migrating to linux, and I probably some long lasting damage still lingering from that era.

vettnerk,

I miss /usr/ports. I could spend days just exploring its contents.

I miss an /etc structure that wasn’t a complete mess.

I miss UFS and its soft updates.

I miss the stability of fBSD 3 and 4.

I miss the ease of which you tweaked, compiled, and installed a new kernel.

And just because of the hilarious legacy that was obsolete 20 years beforw I started with it, I miss the concept of font-servers.

The main reason for my migration was the bigger userbase of linux where it was easier to find people who has resolved whatever issue I was having, plus nvidia drivers. Plus I’ve only needed to use fBSD once professionally.

Quake II Remastered - Official Trailer (2023) (www.youtube.com)

You are humanity’s last hope to stop the Strogg, a hostile alien race waging war against Earth. Play this military sci-fi FPS, now enhanced for modern platforms and feature-complete with all-new campaign content, Quake II 64, online multiplayer and co-op support, and more.

vettnerk,

Nice. I remember the insane graphics this game provided when I finally got my 3dfx Voodoo2 running properly back in 1998. Looking forward to a modern overhaul.

vettnerk,

I heard this claim somewhere that the reason why Neville Chamberlain agreed to it was because UK was nowhere close to being ready for war. Something along the lines of having been instructed to secure peace at all cost.

In retrospect it’s easy to see the Munic Agreement as a mistake, but I have to admit that I am curious if he had any real alternative.
