Its much more approachable and not nearly as frustrating or difficult as those. We finished the game while being stoned if that tells you anything lol
- Comment on V Rising Update 1.1 - Invaders of Oakveil is Out Now! 2 days ago:
I feel weirdly releived tbh. My server is pretty old and I was dreading of trying to get back and remember everything or feeling bad for restarting but now the choice has been made for me lol
- Comment on Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck) 2 days ago:
Ship of Fools is -60% on steam right now and I can’t recommend this game enough. It’s a rogue lite where you both need to protect a ship from monsters maning the cannons and it’s an absolute blast! It has good progression and it’s intense but not in annoying sort of way.

Thanks for Halt and Catch Fire - can’t believe I’ve never heard of it before! Got my weekend booked
- Comment on Are we all suffering from "future shock" in 2025? 4 days ago:
Yeah but OP clearly implies that rapidly changing world is a bad thing when it doesn’t seem to be in most measurable metrics.
- Comment on Are we all suffering from "future shock" in 2025? 4 days ago:
Sure the same way I yearn for Middle Earth then.
If you take at least half of a reasonable utilitarian position then 70s don’t stand a chance no matter how you look at it. Everything is literally better now except nostalgic bullshit like “housing was cheaper if I was white american” and “I couldn’t doomscroll” sort of nonsense.
- Comment on Are we all suffering from "future shock" in 2025? 4 days ago:
Very cool idea!
Tho I think people from 70s would very much still choose 2025 living over 70s. People really underestimate how much better we have now.
Especially if you take a look at the whole world outside of US bubble. You think people in Asia and Africa yearn for 70s? Future shock is shockingly great in their eyes.
I think the more apt issue here is simply the fact that US empire is falling as this shock does not replicate everywhere so clearly it’s not universal.

Thats not a bad thing - I’d be down for a good new western mmorpg!
- Comment on [Digital Foundry] Oblivion Remastered PC: Impressive Remastering, Dire Performance Problems 5 days ago:
I’m having relatively good performance in 6600rx on Linux but after a while theres some sort of GPU memory leak (would be my guess) where fps halves until the game is restarted.
- Comment on Oblivion Remastered Impressions (and Discussion Thread) 6 days ago:
Was really sad when found out that my Linux home pc can’t run it on 6600rx. Turns out only needed a driver update and set desktop resolution to 1080p and now everything is running nicely at 60fps.
The game is really fun though I already added couple of balance mods:
- Unreal Engine tweaks to get rid of performance stutters
- Acension Remastered for fixing pretty bad balance that is still in the game. Adds rare loot, high level spawn points
- Balanced NPC level Cap to remove stupid NPC scaling ruber band
- Balanced Unleveled Rewards fixes rewards to be a bit more meaningful and interesting
- Comment on Oblivion Remastered Impressions (and Discussion Thread) 6 days ago:
I’m on AMD 6600RX and mesa 24.x was unplayble and runs almost perfectly on 25 now. So have hope!

I really dont get cable simping here on Lemmy. It’s awful UX and yall can’t hear the sound difference anyway lmao

Got the weekend booked for this. Excited just roam around and see how things have changed. Seems like it runs flawlessly on Linux too!
- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 1 week ago:
Their docs are pretty good: docs.kdenlive.org/en/
Otherwise youtube is full of tutorials tho the software gets a lot of updates so often the best new way is on the docs or stackexchange
- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 1 week ago:
Inkscape is really good and I prefer it over Adobe Illustrator. It’s a bit worse in some regards but its really stable and does everything very reliably and can be molded into svg production machine.
Kdenlive is the best simple video editor out there. Sure other editors are better but kdenlive really hits that sweet spot of being simple but powerful.
Digikam is the best photo management suite I know off. Everything else seems to be missing one thing or another and Digikam just does everything and does it pretty well.
Ansel (fork of Darktable) is often better than Adobe Lightroom for casual photography as it comes with very strong opinionated defaults. I generall just follow the default pipeline and have amazing shots. Light room could probably get me a bit further but Ansels hits the sweet spot between too basic and too clunky.
Then as a developer foss libraries are basically uncontested to the point where proprietary libraries and programming languages are basically do not exist anymore.

Miss the world of wildstar the most - its was a really creative theme park
- Comment on How are the blatant anti-competitive practices of Apple just…allowed? How is this even possible? 2 weeks ago:
And cultural impact. Americans are super patriotic about Apple and don’t even notice it.
- Comment on How are the blatant anti-competitive practices of Apple just…allowed? How is this even possible? 2 weeks ago:
Because it’s the top American company. US protects Apple and allies can’t work against that. Now that US and EU relationship is deteriorating we’ll see loads of lawsuits against Apple pop up in Europe.

- Comment on Do you use your blinker in a car? 2 weeks ago:
Currently I’m staying in Thailand the road culture here is fascinating. There are very few actual rules that people follow but its all about speed and projecting what are you doing so signals and everything is a big part of road culture here despite many drivers don’t really knowing road theory.
For example if you drive up a curvy mountain road you horn on the turn slowly to project that you’re driving there.
- Comment on Do you use your blinker in a car? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah man operating machinery is awesome. Doing it respectful and responsible way is extra satisfying. People really look down on cars but it’s an awesome tech!
- Comment on Do you use your blinker in a car? 2 weeks ago:
I use it even in my drive way. Good habbit is a good practice that makes operating any system easier.

- Comment on Anon is looking for a new video game 3 weeks ago:
Yeah but having discipline to grind and find an efficient grind method can be hard.
Some games like runescape are mechanically easy but number hard because the difference between optimal path and suboptimal is one of “never getting this within realistic time frame” which essentially is equivalent to a mechanic defeat.

Yeah could have just ended on “there were no paintings”
- Comment on Maybe it's just a human thing. 3 weeks ago:
I’ve went through that personally so I’m very well aware but still I don’t think its very much of the same thing. It’s less due to atheism per se and more to do with the fact that people groups were just dangerous to the regime and this extended way beyond religion.
- Comment on Maybe it's just a human thing. 3 weeks ago:
They weren’t killing in the name of atheism though

Thats quite reasonable tbh thanks for answering!
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 Launches on June 5th Worldwide; 1080p Screen With 120 FPS and HDR Support, Docked Mode 4K Resolution Support Confirmed 4 weeks ago:
Are they legit charging money for the tech demo game?
Also did they mention how much the “upgrades” will be?
Seems like I’m staying on Steam Deck until that thing wears down into a pile of dust huh.
