I take my shitposts very seriously.

Absolutely! Multiple, in fact. In order of preference:


Problem: the game is getting a notoriety for being infested by pedophiles and the developers are actively protecting them.
Solution: send your photographs to the game infested by pedophiles to prove you are a real child!
Fucking. Incredible. If this was written in a manuscript, it would be tossed for being too cartoonishly unrealistic.


Through brand recognition.
Such devastation was not his intention.


That is still so fucking mysterious to me. The Chinese Room makes exactly one type of game, which is “guided-interactive narrative experience” to be diplomatic. The exact opposite of Bloodlines 1. Dear Esther, Ozzy Mandus And The Crankhog Machine, their entire portfolio follows the same formula: strong in art direction, atmosphere, and story; weak in gameplay. Even a hit like Still Wakes The Deep only takes gameplay as far as “throw object to make the thing look away”. Their gameplay systems are not just middling but comfortably average, just enough to keep the player engaged while moving through the (admittedly beautiful) environments.
So why the fuck did Paradox choose them for Bloodlines 2? Are they stupid?


Sounds like it’s for the best. Paradox was killing CO.


It’s possible that, when the ISP revokes the public address and assigns a new one, the DNS record isn’t updated immediately and still points to the old address. Then every new request would be sent to the old, invalid address.
And this is where I start shilling for Tailscale. It’s a Wireguard-based mesh VPN that is designed to work from behind firewalls, NAT, and CGNAT. It has its own internal split DNS provider, and probably some mechanism to handle public address changes that is transparent to the tunnelled traffic. You can use it to share the server with only the devices that have the client installed, or expose the server to the internet.
I’ve got it set up on my OPNSense firewall as a subnet router that advertises the subnet where my servers are, and often stream from Jellyfin over it. There’s some overhead, but it’s never been disruptive.


My main concern about that is that using AA and AAA form factors promotes the use of disposable dry cell batteries, even if nickel or lithium cells are just as widely available. And, realistically, not even the closest Li-ion form factor is fully compatible with AA, and Ni-MH sucks balls.
The controller is also filled to the gills with hardware. Doesn’t look like there’s enough volume left for AA or AAA receptacles without giving it an underbelly to rival the Xbox Duke.
Sometimes, “Yes, do as I say!” just doesn’t get the message through.


Week one, somebody’s going to release a CAD file for a 3D-printable shell with a removable battery cover.
Verifying that the code doesn’t contain regressions, bugs, or vulnerabilities, that it doesn’t conflict with whatever the owner is actively developing privately, in addition to making sure it wasn’t vomited out by a goddamn clanker, is a huge burden on a solo developer. They are free to decide whether to take on this responsibility.


That is a completely valid reason to hate Microsoft. Who the fuck wants another Apple?
That’s pretty much what happened. Windows 8 was such dogshit that it might be indirectly responsible for the revolution of Linux gaming. https://archive.ph/iHl8q
(edit) The comments are fucking hilarious.
Who is this turkey anyway. He says it’s “unusable” but doesn’t say he’s used it. Had he done so he would have looked past the surface change and recognized the true power and smoothness under the hood. […] Way to go Microsoft too bad you need to put up with idiots that are too lazy to keep up with the times.
A whole new way of enjoying your neofetch fastfetch output!


Try Onlyoffice. It’s designed to look and feel like MS Office.
I take it you’ve never done any serious software development.
No matter how much they try, the in-house testing environment will never be as diverse as the “wild”. Running the software in production, where it will encounter a vastly greater range of system configurations, and users who will report issues, is often the only way to catch the more elusive bugs. Like xz. And let me point it out because people seem to have completely missed it: they caught the bug and fixed it.


Imagine. Product is released, people buy the Steam Machine, and Half-Life 3 is just… there. Preinstalled on some of the units. The buyers post it on the internet and get called bullshitters. Then Half-Life 3 is officially announced the next day. The internet loses it. Gaben ascends to godhood. He. Has. Cooked.
