lime!

i bought this expecting a story-heavy atmospheric lonely driving experience with weird world building tense moments, like the vibe of the ship repair stuff in outer wilds.

i got a survival-crafting horror roguelike. you do comparatively little driving, the main game consists of scavenging for loot and using it to build replacement parts for your crumbling vehicle.

i hope this gets me back in. last time i thought the “repair vehicle after a successful run” setting would help me, but that also completely removes the quirks system, where the car picks up weird behaviors with time. it just deletes that gameplay element. that made me feel like i was cheating, which wasn’t fun.

that’s always been nintendo’s MO though. with the exception of the N64 and GameCube, their consoles have all been very modest spec-wise. but the games they put out are made specifically for that hardware, so it’s usually fine.

and actually, the switch is underclocked in its stock configuration. if you have adequate cooling for it you can basically double its clock speed with a softmod, which at least for totk removed basically all stuttering for me!

i mean it is eight years old.

i don’t think any manufacturer publishes the voltage their devices run at, could be anywhere from 3.3 to 5V. so i don’t know how an end-user is supposed to compare battery sizes between devices.

you would be a bit peeved as well if one guy in a lecture hall with 150 people constantly asked you to convert every measurement in your talk to something only that guy understands.

you’ve gotta adjust some parameters, man, that’s horrendous.

well in my language they’re “runners” so i guess i should have thought a bit harder there…

well, til!

jesters? they’re bishops…

i think the mod loader is for a console release.

Oxygen Not Included. it’s taken over my brain.

yeah, Uniper is a major stakeholder in the Oskarshamn and Forsmark power plants, and it was absorbed into the German state in 2022.

i’m a plan 9 from bell labs fan. Imagine how excited I was when wsl used 9P for its plumbing. then they scrapped it all for wsl2.

just, the power they managed to get out of those union mounts… your application wants access to the mouse? sure, here’s a file named “mouse”. it’s got the coordinates in it. you want to draw to the screen? here’s a file called like “bitmap” or whatever, just write to it. you want to start a process on another machine? just cd to it and start the process there. want to have the UI show up on your machine? symlink your bitmap file to that directory.

I also wish early web composability could have stayed and expanded. like, the old vlc embed player, which would just show up in your browser and could play any file inline? great stuff. Imagine if every application composed with everything else, like the android Activity and Intent concepts but for anything, just by virtue of living in the same os. need an image? just ask the os and it will present the user with many ways to procure an image, let the selected one run , and hand you back an image. you don’t even have to care where from. in a way, it’s what the arcan guy is doing with his experiments, although that’s more for stitching together graphical pipelines.

sorry to tell you this bud…

mfer nationalised the comments section just like they did the swedish nuclear power plants
