KOTOR 2 was the high point of Star Rules games
  • Well, the first time they e really gotten away from that dynasty has been Acolyte. Haven't seen it yet, but judging by the discourse online this might be the last time they ever explore outside the skywalkers

  • Work from home
  • Yeah, but here in the US, if you can work even the simplest job you shouldn't qualify for disability! That just encourages people to enjoy communism! These literally half blind mfers need to get off their ass and get to work, the lazy sons of bitches! Don't they love freedom?

  • The Countdown to Save US Libraries
  • They're in horrible legal ground. What they did was illegal (though not necessarily wrong), but now they're risking dying on this hill, which will cause people to lose a valuable service. They need to surrender the hill before it's too late, if it's not too late already

  • Heatwave is no joke...
  • What different people can handle is wild. I mowed yesterday through 98° weather. It was miserably fucking hot, but I wasn't impaired.

    However, when it's slightly below freezing and we get half an inch of snow? Everything shuts down for a week and no one can function.

  • Vegan Firefighter Loses Groundbreaking Discrimination Case
  • Creed doesn't necessarily equal a religion. A creed is a set of sincerely held beliefs one uses to guide their actions, it just typically takes the form of a religious creed, but non religious people can have their own creed. Believing that factory meat is horrible and therefore you're vegan or vegetarian is a creed in my book. It's a sincerely held belief (factory farms are horrible) that guides decisions (don't eat meat)

  • Todd Howard says Bethesda won't be remaking the first Fallouts because 'some of the charm of games from that era is a little bit of that age'
  • You can still run Fallout 1 and 2 on modern hardware. Maybe not the original disks, but a remake wouldn't fix that anyways.

    A remake would involve redoing nearly everything in the base game in a new engine. You're likely thinking of a remaster, which brings it up to modern hardware without rebuilding the whole thing.

    A remake isn't needed for fallout 1 or 2

  • Intel is trucking a 916,000-pound 'Super Load' across Ohio to its new fab, spawning road closures over nine days
  • Yup.

    Without checking, I'm betting that Ohio gave them incredibly tax breaks that are nearly without end, meaning none of the money goes back into the local economy whatsoever

    My states done it so many times now, and we don't have income tax, so none of the money goes back into the local economy on the executive side, only on the workers side, putting all the issues it causes on workers! Woo!

  • Epic won’t update Fortnite to run on the Steam Deck. Tim Sweeney says Linux is ‘a terrifically hard audience to serve’ (2022)
  • Man, I hadn't heard that rant in years.

    And yeah, I remember a lot of people both cheering and hating on EGS when it was first announced. A lot of people were saying it would be as bad as uplay and whatever ea calls their launcher now (it wasn't), or that devs would get screwed by the platform (they didn't).

    I also remember a lot of people saying it would be a "steam killer". It wasn't, but even without direct evidence I feel comfortable saying it was a major factor in steam finally making their launcher halfway decent. It still has a ways to go and I still think EGS does some things better (why TF would I ever want to launch directly to the store, valve? Just show me my fucking games)

  • Epic won’t update Fortnite to run on the Steam Deck. Tim Sweeney says Linux is ‘a terrifically hard audience to serve’ (2022)
  • I don't give a rats ass about their market share, epics never going to pass steam, but they still have to pay devs to give away those games, and with a lot of the games being indie titles, I'm perfectly happy for some free money to go into a devs pocket

    To add on to this: steam was dog shit before epic came along. A lot of people are either unaware or have forgotten how bad steam actually was until it got some real competition

  • Raspberry Pi launches its IPO
  • Government doing things ≠ socialism.

    Government regulating things ≠ socialism

    Roads and parks ≠ socialism

    Socialism is based in the collective ownership of companies by the workers who make everything happen, rather than execs and managers. Socialism isn't when government does stuff or when healthcare.
