Just a nerd who migrated from kbin(dot)social.
Rorschach was an ass. He was basically a monster. That refusal to remain silent in the face of overwhelming horror makes him a hero.
Ozymandias should have been brought to justice for the murders he committed. He should have been publicly broken, the people he killed or caused to be killed tied to his actions, and his horrible scheme made public to everyone on Earth.
The only hero is Rorschach. He’s still a horrible human being.
I doubt that America as we know it can survive, period. There needs to be a change - whether that’s about wealth classes, political beliefs, or various -isms. We can’t use a system that was intentionally broken to fix things. The words of slavers from 250 years ago are too weak. The way that things have developed across the regions of this massive, unwieldy, federation needs amendment.
Unfortunately, right now the pendulum is swinging hard in one direction. There’s no meaningful fighters on the other side. So us little people have to cling to hope - and that hope is increasingly looking like it has to come from force, and from the barrel of a gun.
It means Multi User Dungeon. It’s a networked multiplayer game, usually focused on dungeon-crawling as the name suggests. Early ones were based heavily on BD&D and AD&D, but others got more creative.
Because a MUD that isn’t part of a BBS feels wrong to me.
We need to get MUDs more popular again. But that would require getting Telnet popular again.
Well, I guess the diggers pushed it down this time. Still not joining, but I’m glad for the impact.
Yeah, nope. No matter what OS, no matter what specs, I’m going to keep my PC.
Right. Just put sudo su in your terminal on boot, and you’re set.
Here’s hoping that he doesn’t have any impact at all.
The investment should be into DOS gaming, and exclusively there.DOSBox and DOSBox-X work on Linux.
Seriously. It’s genuinely making me worry about the few past interactions I had with him as the guy who created Jill of the Jungle and ZZT. Like, what might have happened if me or any of the other kids at the computer show were alone with him? What might he have done when no one was watching?
For me -
And proof that I’m kinda a film nerd (and I had family in journalism)…
Oh, and most Star Trek movies.
Some of us believe in sweating it out. Some take precautions, which prolong the illness but might have a better long-term outcome.
Holy shit. I honestly can’t believe people are willing to actually openly support that shit.
Why doesn’t she buy men’s pants with the correct measurements for her needs? Unlike the arbitrary garbage system for women, us guys just have inch measurements of the important stuff.
I agree, with one small caveat: Capcom actually made the Mega Man Battle Network games better through their collection - and while I’m sure those QoL features could have been implemented in ROMhacks (and I’m happy with emulation), I don’t begrudge anyone who has it. I’ve also bought the Mega Man & Zero collection carts for 3DS, because I wanted to play them specifically on that device.
Konami, shockingly, also did right by fans with the Yugioh Early Days collection, since they brought over a game that wasn’t translated (and the fan translation isn’t perfect) in Capsule Monsters, and I’m pretty sure there’s other improvements as well. Again I’m satisfied with emulation on those games, but I can’t bring myself to despise people who have bought the collection.
But that’s two or three examples against however many.
But I want to know how far back your outlook on this goes: Super Mario All-Stars (+ Super Mario World) is notable for bringing all 4 NES Mario games to SNES. It’s arguably a remaster collection. Should people have been as enthusiastic about it at the time? Or how about the first of these from Konami - Ninja Gaiden Trilogy?
Where does the line get drawn?
No, this should the opening of Falling Down.
As others have said, Hacker News.
I mean, people who don’t want their questions or answers included in an LLM won’t use SO. When people want to ask a question and not be shut down or berated, they’ll probably end up on HN.
We had that briefly, but it’s been decreasing steadily since the 1870s.
