Wasn’t Firefox starting to implement some bullshit too?

Just request Libre Office Calc to be able to import Excel shortcuts.

Been using it just fine on my Desktop. Blender 3D and Krita are equally as good, and in some cases better, than the subscription based programs. Libre Office has the same functionality as MS Word, but supports more formats. Every other daily use program, such as Firefox or VLC runs just as fine on Linux as it does anywhere else. I’ve had virtually no issues running games from my Steam library, even ones that aren’t officially supported.

Eeeeewww. Why would I want to fuck something so small and limp?

I shit you not, whenever the issues of Microsoft are brought up in my friend group, there is one guy who pops up and defends Microsoft with “Well it’s not a problem for me. I do t see the big deal at all! It’s only a few ads.”

Weird take to suggest that it’s the fans ruining an IP with criticism. As if we should all just be content with some executives shagging a hollow corpse of a franchise simply because it exists in name.

Mass Effect Andromeda didn’t just have a few crappy animations. The whole story, quest, and dialogue writing was incredibly bad. People hated it because it sucked. And it got canned because it sucked.

If Star Trek were to get cancelled right now it would be a good thing. What we have today masquerading as Star Trek is cheap, low effort garbage that tries to make up for it by wasting its budget on as much off the shelf CGI sparkles that can be thrown at it. But no, of course it’s the fans who are ruining Star Trek.

The first season of TNG got criticised because the first season of TNG is actually, genuinely bad. The difference with TNG and STD, however, is while STD remained the same level of mediocre throughout its entire run (with some aspects actually getting worse), TNG drastically improved in season 2 and only got better after.

I mean, the headline couldn’t be more true. Not sure if I’m willing to watch a multi-hour long critique about it, but I’d say she’s probably right on a lot if things in the video based on its title alone.

Gimp has been falling behind more and more. Back when 2.0 came out it wasn’t as bad yet, but it got worse as years went on.

You wouldn’t download a Car.

Yes. Yes I would.

It does seem that way, unfortunately.

Hmm, this one has been on my radar for a while. They already eliminated the need for a always online connection, if I’m not mistaken, and with more content coming it might be finally time to get my hands on it.

Wild Life, an indie porn game currently still in development, has mocap.

Mass Effect Andromeda had one or two fairly graphic sex scenes. Nothing more than what you’d typically see in an R rated Hollywood movie.

Unfortunately the scenes were with the most human characters. Imagine my disappointment when it just did fade to black with the Turian girl…

Yyeeeah… Pretty sure my name isn’t ChatGPT.

Yyeeeaahh… No.

Seriously!? Huh…

This was my very first subject in college level chemistry here in Denmark.

There is no such thing as “anti-bacterial soap”, on the basis that all soap, by it’s very function, is anti-bacterial. Because of this fact any company can add the words “anti-bacterial” on their soap, as it’s never technically wrong.

How does soap kill bacteria?

Soap is an emulsifier type chemical. That is to say, soap has molecules that like water and hate oil on one end, and hate water and like oil on the other. The molecule looks kinda like a hairpin, and you cannot have soap without it.

Cell and bacterial walls have a double layer of similar molecules that create a barrier between the inside of the cell and the outside world. The soap molecules attach themselves to the bacteria’s walls and then tears them apart.

Your skin is largely protected because it’s made of many layers, the top most being made of dead skin cells. But high enough concentrations of soap can cause serious chemical burns, as what the soap does to bacteria it can do to your skin cells. However, very low concentrations of soap is all that’s needed to wash yourself.

Never had issue with this. For my work I’ve always used Blender 3D, Gimp, and Krita. The one thing that used to hold me back from using Linux was my Steam game library, but then Valve introduced Proton and all my reasons to stay on Windows evaporated.

Been a happy Linux user for a few years now.

Hhhhmmmmmmm… Yeah, so the article mentions that Palworld was created using money from their previous game projects. Incidentally, especially as far as Craftopia is concerned, those games aren’t really finished.

Last I saw Palworld it still looked like a janky alpha, with really bad AI, bad pathfinding, janky animations and physics, clipping… It held me off from buying the game.

Not sure how the current state of the game is, but I’d hazard a guess that it’s still not close to “done”. So the article assures we’re not seeing the last of Palworld, but so far the modus operendi of Pocketpair is to eventually abandon their current, unfinished project for a new one.

… to the extent of killing off live service games.

I mean… Nothing of value was lost? In my opinion, so far, the only decent live service game to have ever come out is still Warframe. Everything else that cane after is either a pale imitation or straight up cow milking garbage.

We could certainly do with a lot less “live service”.
