For every game that breaks compatibility due to anti-cheat there’s 100s more new games that don’t have it and probably run on Linux just fine. So on average, the compatibility always goes up.

Counter point, Bluey with Subway Surfers in the corner.

We are on Lemmy, we don’t count.

There’s usually not enough interesting things happening on the screen to maintain a child’s attention, it’s mostly just conversations. They might look at the screen occasionally but are unlikely to pay much attention.

Source: was children at some point, maybe.

The plan falls apart at step 1, as children don’t watch ST, let alone TOS.

It’s definitely used in older series as well.

I mean, just because it happens fast or in an unnoticeable way doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. If somebody vaporized themselves instantly it’s still suicide. Sure, people would probably accept the fact that their original is being killed for convenience, but the fact stays.

Because technically, it’s a scanner + printer and not a mover. It’s just that the original is deliberately destroyed every time (unless something goes wrong *looks at Miles*).

IIRC, it’s even mentioned that people going through the transporter are cached. Like, they store snapshots, so you can compare the changes between older you and newer you. You can also store a person in buffer digitally, meaning you can copy and print as many as you want.

I would’ve just closed the curtain to avoid glare like that fat guy from the meme.

I always do that Neo dodge, but we all know how that ended.

Mostly, people with friends.

Can somebody please put Morpheus and Neo on a Magic Carpet with caption “I can show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes”? Thanks.

Wtf is “whatnot”? How is it amongst such well-known stuff (except Instructure, too, I guess)?

THE NEW MAIBATSU MONSTROSITY

Why drive a small car? Are you a small person? The new SUV Maibatsu Monstrosity guzzles gas and is equipped for crossing Arctic tundra! Driving one will make you feel good!

gpus were expensive back then

Wait till you hear about the current GPU prices…

I wasn’t talking about LAN but playing online on public servers. And I wasn’t saying it as a bad thing, just tempering expectations. Iirc, you have to patch the game, then create an account for the GameSpy replacement. There were some stability issues, too, but if you find a decent server it was ok.

But after all of that the main issue was, of course, lack of players.

Warhead was like Crysis 1.5, actually. But I have tried playing the original Crysis online a couple years ago and it’s possible. Not super convenient, but possible.

I wouldn’t say it’s ugly per se, but it’s rather distinctive and we have developed an association with it.

The “slop” part they’re talking about is the logo itself. You can tell it’s made by Sora because of the font, and to an extent the proportions of items being off.

And you can barely even tell this was made with Sora.
