The next Planetary Annihilation game is half Factorio, half RTS, all 'Tsar Bomba level annihilation'

Jump

  • Who remembers that they delivered a half-baked Planetary Annihilation out of early access and then move their product to Planetary Annihilation: Titans to get rid of the bad steam reviews?

    'cause I do.

  • Bypassing the anti-cheat will get you banned if it gets detected, wouldn't it?

    • Spotify re-invented the radio

  • Yeah don't use it if you don't want to, idc. But you might accept the thought that there are people that think the deal Spotify puts on the table is good.

  • Valid point, but commuting with my turntable to listen to my sick vinyls on the go is a pain in the ass. Also moving sucks ass when you have a metric fuckton of sensitive vinyl to move. Owning stuff also has its downsides. Also no way I'm digitizing my vinyls and cutting them and shit to listen to them on the go, ain't nobody got time fo dat.

    I gave up on CDs roughly 15 years ago because I don't like the format compared to vinyl (small album art, plasticy jewelcases, ...).

  • I feel you, the value from Spotify is enormous. I can sift through ten different bands in no time just because I decided that I want to look up a new genre that I may or may not be totally into by the end.

  • Yeah, spotify recommendations, spotlist, and whatnot has replaced what MTV was back in the day.

  • Yeah if you can't pay for Spotify then don't, I get you. It doesn't make their subscription offer any worse, though, if you decide on pirating.

  • I get your point but it really depends on the audience you're looking at. Personally, I use Spotify a lot to listen to any new artist I can find and check their stuff out without crawling a) youtube or b) buying their records in advance. If I stumble upon some stuff that I'm really into, I look if there are any vinyls available. (Bonus step c): you're two months late to the vinyl release and the discocks are already hoarding all copies, smh.)

    The point you've made kinda boils down to the question if music is a hobby or a commodity for said person. The "problem" I'm seeing is that music is more of a commodity to many people that just listen to stuff for the sake of listening to it. That's just a product of changing times and the relation between people and music and the distributors inbetween reflects that. Of course this is frustrating for the load of talented artists that just niche audiences care about.

  • Is this finally the beginning of anti-cheat games coming to linux? I'd love official ports for stuff like League or Honkai Star Rail.

  • Well, if you don't pay with money, you're paying with your attention. Do you think they create this huge service just for funsies?

    Tbf, out of all media streaming services across movies, series, and music, Spotify has the highes bang-for-your-buck. It's still like Netflix at that time when there was only Netflix and you could watch almost everything on one platform. I still buy records that I like on physical media like vinyl, but Spotify is such a great deal for convenient listening to all music out there.

    • It's official, Microsoft now owns ABK

  • Which 3rd party exclusives are they sitting on except Bayonetta 2/3? I can't remember that many.

    Nintendo has the same dumb practices, but they do it with their own IPs, which is a little less annyoing. Also they aren't the main player like Sony has been for the last two decades. They just own the Mario-and-Zelda-tablet.

  • Write a more stable gaming launcher on your own OS than a 3rd party company (impossible)

  • It's awesome how user friendly Mint is. If you like it you might check out the Debian version of it (LMDE). In general it's similar but doesn't rely on Ubuntu which is maintained by a company, Canonical, that upsets linux people with some proprietary stuff. Ubuntu is just a derivative of Debian, so you just can go with the original.

  • Consoles are walled-gardens altogether. Also poor Sony set the markt rules with their 3rd-party exclusives for how many generations now?

    If you want to keep gaming as far away from enshittificarion as possible, then set up a linux gaming pc. It's not bad anymore.

    • Finding a Tech Job Is Still a Nightmare

  • The "tech" label confuses me as a non-american. This means just IT programming/computer stuff, right? Because it's funny to me that stuff like mechanical engineering isn't considered part of "tech".

    Might be that the "tech" market is now saturated. Computer science was THE trend topic to doin STEM from my subjective view, so maybe that crashed into the bursting tech bubble that we are experiencing now with all the enshittification and layoffs and stuff.
