Some would say weapons aren’t the only thing that makes a game good
Trying to regulate it is close to the alt right christians doing the same thing. My mom left me a book about how touching myself would lead to drugs and hell eventually.
She is very nice from what I hear


Awesome, they now have what Steam delivered over 10 years ago with Big Picture. They must be worried.


Yeah I can’t remember too many built for millennials. I want to say How I met your Mother, but we were just a bit too young for that. I don’t know of any other sitcoms that were really for our age group growing up. It’s a trend, hollywood ignores the youth then is upset when they’re older that they don’t want to watch their stuff at all


I’m sure it will be, but will it be for 7 years? No idea. I’ve just lost all trust in Studios to finish anything they set out to do


Once there people will view moving as a hassle, but I understand what you’re thinking. Mastodon I think did it better with “suggesting” an instance to you, and Lemmy has gotten better about it. For friends and family I think the best way is basically telling them which server to use. Go here, sign up


It’s your CPU. The FX line came out a very, very long time ago, the first real quad cores. You need an upgrade to play games that came out last year. (Edit, I thought you meant Cities Skylines 2. Still, if you’re hoping for good framerates you can’t have a CPU that is that old)


Oh no I’m not playing that game, that’s leading into an argument that I’m not going to have


Most of the game was honestly boring, nostalgia takes over and we remember the sweet coastal raids and our ship, but does anyone remember the story? I think it’ll be the same here. Everyone buys, gets bored 4 hours in, and puts it down


I’ve thought that before but I don’t trust that they will. I don’t think the suits at top will say “but we are at season 4 we have to finish the whole show” if it’s not profitable. The fact that they just approved season 2 leans to that I think, otherwise they’d have a minimum 7 seasons approved


Hollywood ignored Gen z for years, and when they started finally making content for them it was pandering and clearly approved by committee. I’m not surprised they’re struggling to find a Gen z audience, Gen z from what I have seen have left Hollywood for the most part. They get their content from social media and YouTube. Hollywood ignored them for so long that they moved on. It’s only now that they’re a large demographic that they started caring


Setting aside well, everything - I didn’t trust them to finish it, do even without everything else why would I start it? Seriously for me to get invested I would need some sort of assurance they planned to finish it. But we all know the second something isn’t just profitable, but insanely profitable it’s immediately killed off without another second thought. No way I’m getting emotionally invested in something that needs minimum 7 seasons.


It’s out of date, and in desperate need of a rewrite. PHP might have been an okay choice 15 years ago, but no one in their right mind should be using PHP for modern server development. (Yes I’m calling out Pixelfed too). With so many languages and frameworks, that’s probably one of the worst right now.
Then it was proven that they don’t really get modern infrastructure either, as their docker containers depend on stateful code, with combinations of environment variables and php files that need to be stored in volumes, and then plugins which are also stateful - meaning that on new updates they need to go through an “update” process. This is directly opposite of good practice as docker containers should be 100% immutable and be able to run just by using docker run. They also have required volume mounts scattered throughout the OS, it was just never designed with containers in mind.
I can’t recommend nextcloud right now, it’s incredibly brittle and slow.
Agree with others, if you try to do a replica it’s going to be very inefficient, and your costs will be high. You’re looking for a backup, then just nightly/weekly you perform your backups. Any blob storage then will do, just work out what pricing works for you. Just plan out how you’d do a restore in case everything came crashing down - from ground up how would you bring your services back online?


Fine it’s not technically a fork. It just consumes code from SteamOS and puts it onto Fedora. Happy? That wasn’t really the point of my comment, my comment was encouraging the person to try it.


I use Bazzite on my TV, fork of SteamOS, and it’s been a gamechanger. It’s so easy to just have all of my games on the TV, so I think the machine will be a great investment.


This is very close I think to critics and movies. Critics will always be hyper critical of movies because, well, it’s your job. You go in and watch movies all day - you’re going to pick up on small details that most average watchers won’t notice and you will be hyper critical of that.
Similar here, if your job is to play games and review hardware I’m guessing the writer of this thinks more people than not have huge gaming setups, when in reality Valve is right, most have a modest setup. They know they’re not competing with ultra highend, those people are already in the bag. They’re going after the casual people who maybe haven’t updated their PC in 6 years and just want to play some newer games, getting them into the ecosystem. In short, it’s hard to be a critic of a system that wasn’t designed for you in mind. Hell it’s not designed for me either.
Mass Effect 1? Trash, not enough weapons
