While I do like movies, I find myself playing more games than movies. This is due to most of the movies coming out not being to my personal taste; whereas I can always find a game that is just right. It helps that games are interactive and not just static experiences, like films.

Wow, this shouldn't be a hard choice. Keeping the current model of buy to play would be best, I wouldn't think that Palworld would even benefit from a live-service model, given those games seem to die a lot faster than the standard buy and play.

Kamala is highly meme-able; with her effort and a capable team, they'll drown out those Trump cultists and get uninformed voters on her side. If only that old, weird narcissist would just become an irrelevant creature sooner.

They're gradually phasing out the iTunes PC App...Apple has divided the functions of iTunes into several focused apps. The second reason why I'd love to get a Mac Mini is to get my music redownloaded. I didn't back up my tunes on another hard drive, which was a beginner mistake. I did upload it to Apple Music, though.

ROFL Dual booting with Microsoft being as shitty as they are...Yeah, no. I very much am 100% committed to Linux on my Desktop. I might only make a small concession to getting a Mac Mini for iPhone management.

Eh, the headline is the only good part of this satire article...I much prefer The Onion as their satire articles are way better!

Before I had access to the internet; These were basically my, 'Don't die, eat something easy' list of relatively quick foods back in the darkest, deepest depression days (turns out my brain chemistry reacts horribly to antidepressants and antipsychotics). I was just an anxious dude that didn't know it due to being heavily medicated.

To a casual user of a Linux distro; I find this news to be disappointing because Linus himself saw the value of Rust for Linux, yet hostile old hats are making it difficult to manifest. From all that I read, they didn't want or need to force anyone but the passionate to learn Rust as a programming language. Staying out of the way and letting those committed devs work without harassment would've been a saner way to deal with the Rust Linux Kernel project. Rust, based on my reading and unskilled interpretation, is a memory safe language that does offer some benefits for the OS that use it. It would in theory bring more interest towards the Linux Kernel, and that can only be a good thing; since Microsoft is way too comfortable and needs to be slapped with a loss of users that migrate to Linux. Hell, COSMIC is being written in Rust due to the benefits of the coding language. The hostility doesn't make a lot of sense to me, but people will be people, and this sometimes occurs.

Yeah, this Ubislop will be forgotten, we will poke fun at its glitches. If they had tried to capture people's imaginations (but fell just short enough like Skyrim) we'd probably be talking about this game for years to come. Star Wars: Outlaws is just an overhyped cash grab.

He feels threatened by the work of the COSMIC DE as this DE will basically offer a smoother end user experience without the caveats of other DEs. Once it is out of it's Alpha to Stable development cycle, of course. COSMIC will be at a big advantage of not having any legacy code holding it back, and will purposefully avoid a lot of the annoyances of current DEs on the scene. I'll let the System 76 team cook before passing any solid judgements on COSMIC. There are a few years yet before COSMIC becomes something amazing (I'm just guessing, take this with a grain of salt).

I feel like the missions are pretty good for the most part; I'm pretty far in but have yet to actually play more since a frustrating random encounter. I do find the unskippable skinning cutscenes and little too long animations for doing something a bit trying. Also, the bug where Arthur will stow all but his sidearms and main weapon after riding the horse for a few minutes. When you dismount, you've got to re-equip every time. This issue is fixed in multiplayer though, but sadly to this day unfixed in single-player. These are really my only gripes, as Rockstar did a good job of approximating the feel of the late 1800s in the USA.

Standard Notes, Firefox, novelWriter are the ones I rely on the most for my daily needs.

 

I found this satire piece to be absolutely delightful, capturing the potential rage that Hilary kept under wraps after it was announced that Trump won. It was a disappointing time, as that orange clown got the better of a far more fit person to serve in office.
