You guys are awesome. You've taken a bunch of sand and made it do some amazing things. FOSS devs especially, you do this for the good of everyone for little benefit to yourselves. You all deserve a medal.

I don’t play often but I always amused to see all the new additions when I do come back to it.

Was about to say the same. Unthinkable, I never even thought of subscribing in the first place!

Definitely playing this tonight! I loved the PS1 MoH releases.

Seeing this kind of news hurts. I’ve had a lifelong interest in computers and technology. I’ve made a career of it and live fairly comfortably because of it. But this makes me certain the positives don’t outweigh the negatives. And I wish we could go back to the 90s/2k when we’re certain this tech would lead to the betterment of the world. Sort of bearing my heart here but technology sucks now.

I was “given” this game with a GPU purchase. I have launched it a handful of times. The game is just so pointless, I'm never engaged. I’m not excited about anything in the game. Story, gameplay, or setting (vibes) do not interest me in the slightest. And I’m a person who genuinely enjoys everything from the STALKER series. One of the most difficult and monotonous gameplay loops. And I cannot find it in me to like anything about Starfield. Don’t waste your money even if it’s at a discount. Find some cool Immersive Sim on Itch, you’ll be much more entertained. Buying this at anytime is giving Bethesda the wrong message, nobody wants this.

lol. Nice April Fools post. I think the cruelest tech related Aprils fools post I’ve seen claimed that Apple was open sourcing their x86 MacOS versions. Creating a Mac binary compatible BSD distro. That really hurt. I love OSx/2010s MacOS. Nothing on Linux or BSD side comes close. I am really holding out hope for RayvnOS.

That is a fair assessment, I thankfully never picked up a smoking habit. If vaping got some folks to quit smoking then it did serve as an efficient off ramp. I’ve watched close relatives wither from lung cancer, wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Hope you’re in good health and spirits.

That looks amazing.

It kills me that this was initially shoved out there as a safe alternative to smoking. No actual research, just trust us bro. And of course all this starts coming out and some people are still of the opinion that its safe due to the initial marketing push. Money at all costs, fuck capitalism.
