The OG X-Com is probably up there as a game that I keep coming back to. Especially after I learned about some of the total conversion mods for it.

Pretty sure any black hole we create would evaporate from hawking radiation before it could be used for anything outside of research.

- Comment on It seems some higher level moderation of communities may be required 1 month ago:
From my perspective, the people who are participating in this community aren’t even lemm.ee members, but they are by their nature putting an undue moderation load onto the lemm.ee instance. If they absolutely want to have their own echo chamber, then they can create it on their home instance instead of taking advantage of the looser rules here.
Again, from my perspective, even if they aren’t technically violating any rules now, it’s just a matter of time before they start to push the boundaries. I expect this will happen sooner if a large number of users block the community, thus drastically reducing the number of people who are likely to report malicious activity who are also reading the content.
I would rather have them take their content back to thelemmy.club, lemmy.today, lemmy.lol, or lemmy.libertarianfellowship.org than continue to have it hosted here.

I wish these officials would stop taking the coward’s way out and instead choose to stay and keep fighting until forcibly removed by security.
- Comment on It seems some higher level moderation of communities may be required 1 month ago:
The problem with this idea is that lemm.ee does not have strong moderation and content rules, and that is the exact sort of environment that extremism worms its way into and takes advantage of. I don’t expect the admin team to have the time to police the community with a fine enough comb to catch all of the bad content, and I don’t trust the moderators of any self-titled conservative community to do that job properly.
These communities are ultimately more trouble than they’re worth, and as such I would prefer to see them shunted away from the major servers. Let them build their own hexbear, lemmygrad, or ml. But I don’t think that their regressivism and bigotry have any place here.

Some of these should be considered fundamental basics or rights, and not “luxuries”.

I still remember putting in vacation at my first job, three months in advance and they still said “well it’s your job to make sure your shifts are covered”. Fuck you, Karen, you make the damn schedule one month at a time, just don’t put me on it that week.

Yeah, this is how shields and armor were made, as planishing doesn’t thin out the metal so much.

- Comment on Anon sets the mood 8 months ago:
Sonarr and radarr aren’t going to do what you claim without a Usenet client to do the actual downloading. So on top of your *arrs you also have to pick a quality indexer, find and pay for a Usenet provider, and set up your download client. And preferably use a nicer frontend for finding the content a la Overseerr or Ombi. And probably Bazarr to get subtitles for all the anime/foreign language content. Also good luck getting good, consistent releases automatically without some serious dedication to setting up your quality profiles.
- Comment on Do you prefer RTS or Turn based tactics 8 months ago:
Turn based is my jams, though I have been known to enjoy some Total Annihilation and Supreme Commander in my time.

These actions will affect every level of the company, including most of our executive and senior leader roles.
Sounds like at least some management will get hit.

- Comment on "We're committed to release firmware updates to our devices at least until 2026" - says a company that launched a device with a 3 years old version of android. 9 months ago:
Not excusing the practice, but I’m pretty sure Boox products use a highly customized version of the android kernel to work better with eInk screens. It’s not as simple as just using the latest AOSP for them. Sadly, this also seems to be standard across all eInk Android tablets, though it looks like at least some Boox products use Android 12, while most of the space is stuck on Android 11.
