The limit for him was 412.

The devil was the judge of the contest, cheated, and still lost. Says a lot about Johnny's ability.

It seems everyone wants a ceasefire except representatives of the US. Are they just waiting for them to "get it out of their systems?"

The new X will be an everything app, yes.

The problem is it'll have everything except users and advertisers. That second one wouldn't be so bad, but I guarantee Xitter will lean hard into a subscription model when advertising really stops paying; they're already testing it out with paid verification.

At the end of the day, a collection of all the information in the world is a reflection of ourselves.

Meanwhile, I'm enjoying stock photo memes on Lemmy, on /kbin. I think this fediverse idea could be the future.

100 Grand! Underrated candy bar.

This is how most digital media works. You're not buying the media, you're buying a license for the media. Unfortunately, usually there's a clause in the EULA about how the license can be revoked at any time.

Reports say they're working toward a Footlose-inspired technocracy.

My top artist was Tenacious D, and my top song was Virtual Insanity by Jamiroquai.

When people say mouse and keyboard is "better" than controller, they just mean that the skill ceiling you can reach on M&K is higher than on controller, which is true. At the end of the day, just use what you prefer. I can't imagine playing CS2 with a controller, and I don't think Far Cry would be nearly as much fun on mouse and keyboard, there's different cases for both. But you absolutely won't be able to stack up to people playing M&K in most competitive shooters, and that's what people mean when they say M&K is better.

It'd be more news-worthy if Bethesda released a game that DIDN'T start crashing more the longer you played. I remember dealing with this in Fallout 3. Here we are, 15 years later...

If only the people that do this actually thought this way.

Goddang liberals wanna take God out of school and replace him with gay math

You've answered your own question. You like 3rd-person shooter platformers, a genre which isn't as prevalent as it was in the 6th generation of consoles. Not as many games are coming out that fit your tastes. You're also nostalgic, which is perfectly fine, but you have to take off the goggles sometimes. I like Mario Sunshine better than a lot of modern 3D platformers, because I've been playing it for years and it was a big part of my childhood. But just because I love revisiting that game more than playing a new game sometimes, that doesn't mean modern games aren't reiterating and improving upon the things that made it great. A Hat in Time, Psychonauts 2, The Cosmic Shake, Spark the Electric Jester, Orbo's Odyssey, SEUM, Frogun, New Super Lucky's Tale, Supraland, Crash 4. So many great 3D platformers in recent years, with a ton of improvements to quality of life and control compared to where we were back in the day, as well as many new concepts.

Also, claiming that PS2 platformers as a whole look better than modern platformers as a whole is ridiculous, and you're also giving no examples of either case.

For me it's, "AND WHY IS HE HERE? HE LOST!"

Return of the Obra Dinn. The 2nd game from the maker of Papers, Please. You're trying to solve the murders or disappearances of 60 people on a ship, using a watch that can view their moment of death. Insanely unique game, and it's hard to replicate that feeling of all the pieces of the puzzle falling into place that this game fosters.

GTA: San Andreas, OG Loc mission. I'm much better at it after all these years, but I still run into at least 5 walls and fall off my bike every time. It's way harder than the train mission.

"Goddammit, there goes my power converter fund. And all Luke wanted was to go to Tosche Station this year."

If you need an office suite, you can use LibreOffice/OnlyOffice as a full MS Office replacement. OnlyOffice is basically identical to MS Word, Excel, and Powerpoint, and LibreOffice replaces the rest. With MS fonts installed, you should have no trouble writing a .wordx document in Times New Roman.
