Back in the day we would often rent games for a weekend and sometimes we would get stuck at some point. There was one particular game that me and my friends really liked (Maui Mallard) on the genesis, but there was one specific point we didn't know what to do. Every now and then we would rent the game again for a weekend in hopes of figuring it out. The game had basically three buttons IIRC: attack, jump and special. You could also press attack and special at the same time for a different attack. So one day I was playing it and reached the point that we all got stuck, and kept trying to figure out how to jump out of the area I was in (there was a clear exit, but too high up). My brother saw me struggling and mockingly said: "come on, do a super jump" and that made me think: can I do special + jump too? I tried it and then learned that this combination allowed climbing through short gaps (and this was the very first such gap in the game - anywhere else the combination did nothing). I was the neighborhood hero for a while thanks to that.
I had Duck Hunt but didn't have the gun to play it with - nor the knowledge that I needed the gun. Every now and then I would try and fail to figure out how to play the game.
So to me, Duck Hunt is a game about a dog that laughs at you.
Some times you may need to install a few extra stuff to get a game to run properly, other times you may see a few visual glitches like a pop-up menu not rendering properly, but you're unlikely to find any game that just can't run on Linux unless the devs intentionally don't want people to play it on Linux.
Check protondb for general compatibility of any games you play.
Sadly most times I needed one, I either didn't know enough to be able to use it properly, or the PC was under too heavy a load that even the TTY was not responding.
The examples in the song are ironic, she just does not include enough details to clarify it. For example, an old man was afraid to fly so he took the train instead. And an unrelated plane crashed into it, killing him. He died on a plane crash due to avoiding planes. Ironic as fuck.
Only case where I consider pre-ordering is if there's a decent discount for doing it and I know that I'll definitely want the game at launch (for example if most of my group of friends will be playing it at the same time).
Have you played any of the harvest moon / story of seasons games? It's the series that inspired Stardew Valley. Most of them are, in general, much more chill than even Stardew itself.
There are a bunch of them on steam (on there, look only for the story of seasons games and ignore the ones named Harvest Moon)
I'm surprised nobody has done yet as I've seen all sorts of features be added to earphone cases. Maybe a decent touchscreen is not yet cheap enough to throw at some case without the profit margin of the apple brand.
I've recently been working with some niche tool that has very little documentation on the web but is open source and has a ton of discussions on public email groups. Chatgpt is sometimes able to figure out what param I need to send for specific stuff in that tool even if there are zero Google matches for the param name, but more often than not it just hallucinates stuff or mention things that no longer exists. I've created the habit of always asking things like "is that right?" or "is that answer up to date?" before even reading the first response from it and it often replies with things like: "no, that param only exists in some other similar tool" or "no that API has been deprecated" and shit like that.
If it were up to me I wouldn't even be using chatgpt at all due to all the time it wasted with random stuff it makes up, but whatever training data openAI used, it surely had more information about the niche stuff I'm working with than the web does at this point - so sometimes it can still save me time too.
I'm two years Brazil will possibly elect some new right wing maniac and if it is as stupid as the last one, they'll probably give Brazil's whole economy to Trump in a silver platter.
Bolsonaro was recently criticing Lula, saying things like: "how dare he speaks up to Trump, as if our country had any relevance. He should shut up and just do what Trump tells him to".
I once asked chatgpt for the name of an anime that I couldn't remember. I described the whole premise of the anime and then some details of the final episode. Chatgpt says "Stein's gate". I say "no, it's not as famous as that". It then says "Erased", and proceeds to describe it, showing that I was actually very effective in my description of it.
I asked "why did you say Stein's Gate if I described Erased so well?":
"you mentioned time travel and Stein's gate is a popular anime about time travel"
"but I also mentioned a lot of other stuff that don't match anything with Stein's gate, like the details about the villain or how the time traveling works"
"yeah my bad I just went by popularity"
"next time, how can I phrase my questions in a way that would make you consider the whole input instead of just using some key information in it?"
"you could have mentioned details about the villain or how the time traveling works and I would have used that to rule out Stein's gate"
"but I did"
"yeah sorry about that, next time try giving me details about the villain or how the time traveling works"
It'll become more and more important as the north pole melts.
