They could’ve had “GendArch”, what a missed opportunity.

Reminding me of a quote by Charles Bukowski: “How the hell could a person enjoy being awakened at 6:30AM, by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so.”

I have no idea how the hell my boyfriend is attracted to me.

Authenticity is hot, and I think a pretty good authenticity indicator is coming out of the closet and voluntarily live life in hard mode.

That makes sense. A GP = A General Purpose (vehicle).
I even trawled UD and couldn’t find a proper definition there. Also, happy 2 year cake day.

It is bullshit indeed. Especially now with AI, seemingly it would be relatively easier to throw in some adversarial llm in a game to keep a game engaging nowadays.
And imagine if other games started patenting systems like that: “Fatrolling is a unique movement system only found in FromSoftware games”. Soon there wouldn’t be anyone making games except for those with patents.

PS: Thanks for the correction.

Btw. the patented Nemesis system from Shadow of Mordor that everyone loved despite only having been used in that one game series, won’t expire until 2036, and yeah, Warner Bros. gets to keep it.

It’s like how banks figured there was more money in catering to the super rich and just shit all over the rest of us peasants, GPU manufacturers that got big because of gamers have now turned their backs to us to cater to the insane “AI” agenda.
Also, friendly advice, unless you need CUDA cores and you have to upgrade, try avoiding Nvidia.

how KRunner now understands color

Smh. I don’t want my KRunner to see color.

Turns out the problem loading the link was on my end.

This opens the door to so many possibilities. I’m just a dumb-dumb, but skimming through this: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7508700/ it seems that organ xenotransplantation might become a reality in the not too distant future.

Good times with WinMX. Apparently there’s now a version called DarkMX.

Hmm… Maybe I should start storing my bottle caps in a safe.

I used “Power Delete Suite”. It edits and “overwrites” your comments first, then deletes it, that way if reddit decides to restore your messages, they’ll be worthless. That’s the idea anyway. It takes a looong while to do so, and it’ll probably whine about a few posts that it can’t edit for one reason of another.

Boxbuddy makes it incredibly easy to use distrobox, a great way to install software that might not be available for your distro, but is available on another distro, or just a way to keep a piece of software in a stable state (like DaVinci Resolve with davincibox).

If you use a “gaming distro”, I’m sure you’ve seen Input Remapper. It’s a neat utility that can create macros for all your peripherals or rebind keys as you like. Want to bind you controller so it works like a mouse? Possible. Want to macro key pressed by using the forward button on your mouse? Possible.

Did you leave Foobar2000 behind when you switched to Linux? Why not give Fooyin a try. It’s a relatively new audio player with aspirations of becoming just as configurable as FB2K. For me replaygain is quite important, and while some other FOSS audio players support it, not many has replaygain generation. And Fooyin does. While also being just as easy to set up and use as Foobar. Worth a look.

Ah, eto… Bleh!

Putting this on repeat while I open Heroic Games Launcher and reinstall Deus Ex. One of those “if you see it mentioned it’s an instant replay” games.

Btw, Deus Ex GOTY Edition is discounted by 86% on GOG right now during their Gaming Heatwave Promo. It’s about the price of a can of beans. Worth it if you ask me.
_{(Other good deals, like Hitman games and other Deus Ex titles).}

78 dead and that number seems likely to rise. Out of a population of 63 million it could be a lot worse, but the story about a school van just swept away is still heartbreaking to hear about.

They did attack Iran, and the headlines I’ve read says it was without US support. But it’s a developing story.

That’d be a good answer. They do have a lot of photos and a presence online: https://www.instagram.com/babyfooji.cosplay/p/DIzFsHCvThr/

Is that a floating hat in the mirror? wtf…
