Didn’t think it could get worse, and yet here we are. Not sure if it were an experiment, but for a while now my search results were always exactly 5 relevant videos, a block of shorts, and then just completely unrelated stuff.

I don’t really understand why we can’t have it, like it was before. If you’re subbed to a channel, you get the videos in your feed as they come in, and search just works as intended.

They are engineering solutions for problems that don’t need to exist

Something about channeling like 50 lightning strikes from a single skill just feels right

Correct. Atomic distros don’t apply the update, unless it is ready to be applied successfully all together, usually with an option to restore the previous state, without the need of something like btrfs snapshots.

With Nix(-OS) as an example - your bootloader entry is just a reference a giant list of what you need to get out of the Nix store, to achieve the config you want. Many of those can coexist in the same system as a result, including different versions of the same package

This setup won’t really teach you anything different in relation to containers though.

This is the exact same kind of late stage denial, that Ubisoft people are going through. They didn't make a Dragon Age game. They just made generic slop with a Dragon Age branding. All these Assassin's Creed games after the series reboot have been experiencing the exact same treatment. With 0 doubt in my mind, if the next Mass Effect ever comes out, it'll be like this too.

Stop supporting these people. Spend your money on something actually good, especially if it's made by an indie dev

It took me a bit to get into it, but it's so addicting once you get a run going. Defect is by far my favorite, but each of them make the game a completely different experience

I’m shoulders deep in my Slay the Spire addiction again. Highly recommended if you’re into difficult strategy games

No need to gatekeep things in such a heavy-handed manner. People can enjoy whatever kind of games they do. Gaming is about having fun, not about measuring ego based on your self-imposed rules

I am tired of the boomer narrative of that it's always those "young people" ruining everything. Oldest millennials are now in their mid-40's. Or even worse, the youngest gen-z people are almost 18 now. These people have been paying their taxes for years on end now.

The only terrified people in this scenario are the literal parasites who don't pay anything, through loopholes and theft

The lone defender of the billionaires at this point says everything we need to know

What are they so afraid of? They're public servants, so they should be publicly identifiable. If they don't like it, get off the government payroll

The "autopilot"

That's the obvious answer, but it was available long before the orange twat too

I genuinely cannot understand how this 4th reich mobile is legally allowed to not just have this feature available to the public, but also sell it for a considerable amount of money. Even on US roads, it is not even remotely close to ready

I don't understand why people are suddenly praising Gamefreak for this "miraculous" update, that fixed everything, when in reality it took a 10 year jump in hardware, and a slightly increased Pokemon density. Do these people think Xenoblade Chronicles ran on magic and unicorn dust, or some secret performance mode that only gets unlocked for that game?

Congrats to the devs. Biome is awesome, and it’s been a pleasure to use it

It would be yet another spit in the face, if they released a 80$ base game, with the typical 2 season passes, totaling almost 300$ in dlcs of questionable quality. But I wouldn't hold my breath for anything, because it's 2K and Gearbox we're talking about

People will inevitably die as a result of this change. Call your representatives

Bloodthief ended up being exactly as fun as I've expected

At some point, it will only be worth it, if you either finish games at an alarming rate, or play so many different games, that buying them separately would make no sense

Probably not. Steam for macOS still has no SteamPlay support, so your best bet is installing the regular Steam through a separate Heroic prefix. Works great, but it does still require Rosetta.

That said, Box64 and FEX are both making a lot of progress, so it’d be awesome to see these in action officially soon

If this were an optional "skin" of sorts, it would have been completely fine with me. But this is a forced redesign, and a really bad one at that. There will likely be changes before the GM release comes out, but overall I just don't like the design direction, nor the performance implications
