  • Why not user/documents/nvidia/gfexperience/[app name]/? It records both screenshots and videos, and it makes sense it puts everything from one gaming session together. Making a subdirectory in Documents kinda erases the confusion.

    But I can see why they did that. GFE was first and foremost created for datamining direct capture from one's videocard and in-game graphics optimization. Then, it happens, many started to use it for screenshotting because it sometimes get installed on PCs in place of driver and, unlike windows' screenshot tool and scissors tool just saves a file immediately. When I needed to make a lot of them, I defaulted to it too.

  • Linux lets\makes you interact with a terminal (and just OS tinkering) more, so you become a bit more comfortable with writing simple commands and then code.

    One of the things for basic Python and default libs is sorting your Downloads folder into a more logical filestructure that doesn't need reshuffling and searching for long. Move pictures into Pictures and sort them accordingly to the year\month you saved them for example. Make the script run once a week. Make it write a log file as it runs.

    I did this one for the sake of it, but then I needed a piece of code to bruteforce the PDF file password protection, so I used a lib to access and resave this file without a password. On every attempt to open it, it inserted another password from either freely availiable databases of simple passes or well-known leaks (rockyou). It worked nice for PDFs I needed to crack to, actually, just print on paper, but also worked when I tested it with combinations of random words and symbols I came up with. I needed a lib to open a pdf, a list of passwords to try (althought, a bit pre-formatted), and a couple of victims to test on.

  • Wait, W H A T?

    I think that you can hear, wherever you are, how my heart skipped a couple of beats and then how my PC roared with all it's fans at a forced redownload of the beloved game.

    P.S. Their sound design is always stellar. I already sneaked a couple of VTs pieces into my projects, hehe, and there they fit the new universe perfectly too. With all respects to Mick Gordon, the Witcher 3 of soundtrack composers, I can't remember any new Doom tracks (besides BFG?) like I do old ExMx tracks, and like I do the melody of failure in VT2 that was put in one of it's trailers.

  • You are right from a consumer standpoint and it also perfectly fits the sub we are in, heh.

    I think that I'm of another type of gamer, maybe, and I in general learnt to enjoy that more than just good products, especially because of resulting comedy, drama and user content. Ranald's middle finger, huntsman Kruber brushing the map off with a weapon turned into a minigun, never working host migration after someone ragequits, troll-healing Saltzpyre, accidentially throwing the grimoire for the first time, surprise patrols from the thin air... I don't think I could've played that much time if not for these additional shenanigans and laughs after I stopped to care. And FatShark's role there, with their overly ambitious early roadmap, hilarious miscommunications and\or absence, seemingly random decisions before they patch it right - that too played a role there and causes user engagement whatever they want it or not. It feels like your local punk gig: raw, honest, and only a drummer they share between all bands really knows how to play shit. Going into Darktide, I don't have a community anymore 'cause fuck reddit, but dying to numerous bugs, watching all your bad decisions unfold in real time, and seeing teammates mistakingly shooting our Ogrin instead of enemy Ogrins is an on-brand fun of their games, and I'm all for it.

  • Valid points.

    Now I'm hoping for a VT3 bringing the best of both worlds.

    Was there any announcement of what's to wait from FS? I stopped following the subreddit since I ditched reddit.

  • It's different in all it's equipment, awards, leveling system, but the core gameplay stays the same or becomes even better.

    I took a Fanatic with a sabre and a revolver, so it feels just like Saltspyre gameplay.

  • Title

    Jump
  • Legacy building is mostly for rich and powerful who came out of age, like in the mid to end of their life's arc. We may dislike it, but even the most despised billionaires are probably planning something not for the community but for their close circle at least, or even their own commemoration, as they feel the death is coming. Be it a continuation of their business empire or an epic tomb like pyramids, there's some though to that.

    Musk has never left his college years, always high af, always in the moment although he is pushing well over 50. He is closing that question to himself by making many children, but I'm convinced he never stopped and reflected on what would be there or with them after he dies. He's feeling overpowered, nearly immortal, and I feel like his death would be a sudden striking event that'd catch him completely unprepared.
