  • Remake Morrowind, not Oblivion, you cowards

    Jump

  • They'd replace all the things that made Morrowind awesome for something dumbed down for casual player with attention span of week old puppy.

  • Which Distribution and Desktop Environment should I use?

    Jump

  • I can't resist a system that allows for endless tweaking.

    So you actually chose KDE, right?

  • You mean like fuck the whole world in the ass like it's happening now?

  • Star Wars: KOTOR's troubled remake still coming, suggests studio's latest comments

    Jump

  • Yeah, I only play at PC and it's really nothing to write home about.

  • Star Wars: KOTOR's troubled remake still coming, suggests studio's latest comments

    Jump

  • I certainly hope so. And I also hope it won't be butchered. KOTOR was amazing, but it's tough to even start it these days and once you manage to run the game, the UI and controls are... pretty outdated to say the least. And I'm saying that as a person who finished original Fallout games recently and who plays other retro games regularly.

  • Disco Elysium is being "reimagined" for mobile devices to "captivate the TikTok user"

    Jump

  • It's an amazing game. Definitely go for it.

    It's like nothing I've played before. Closest match would be probably old Planescape Torment. Not that it's vastly similar in gameplay, but more like novel style writing, deep lore, focus on narrative instead of action, ... Both games are long, slow paced and both make you think. Highly recommend!

  • Been enjoying Rhythmbox, what are your thoughts?

  • Same for me. I was using foobar2000 back on windows. When I switched to linux I found out I set up my foobar basically the same as vanilla Clementine was set. So I was sold instantly. Later switched to Strawberry, because I felt Clementine is too long dead and it also started to glitch icons on newer qt for me. Strawberry is great.

  • AMD Radeon RX 9070 / 9070 XT review: back to winning ways

    Jump

  • Well, it is net waste for the company at some point. AMD is supreme at CPU now, their lineup is awesome for years. But look at last few graphic card generations. When was the last time AMD really competed in enthusiast market? It's been falling short for quite some time so now they admitted it, cut r&d cost and just skipped high end while focusing on most selling segment. And from the reviews it looks like it paid of as 9070 looks like a hell of an upgrade!

    Don't get me wrong. Nv having no opponent is not a win, because they can and will charge even more for their top of the range. But I'm just saying this was a good decision for AMD.

  • Trump to revoke legal status for 240,000 Ukrainians as US steps up deportations

    Jump

  • I wonder when Trump returns Alaska to Russia. Could be next week, judging by his current pace.

  • AMD Radeon RX 9070 / 9070 XT review: back to winning ways

    Jump

  • Well, I'm on the other side and am happy AMD don't waste resources on high end cards. Vast majority of people use low to mid range cards anyway, so why waste millions to just compete with nvidia, while most enthusiast people will buy nv anyway (because dlss, rtx, whatever hurr durr)? It's just waste of money for negligible returns. I don't even know one single person in my social circle that would have 4k/120Hz display anyway. Most (basically everyone) has either 1080p/144 or 4k/60 and that's mid range happy rodeo. I do have 1440p/144 and I feel like weirdo among my friends (why you need this?).

  • Why can't we go back to small phones?

    Jump

  • It just stopped receiving updates, even security ones.

  • Why can't we go back to small phones?

    Jump

  • Well, how's it supported? This is usually what kills these phones. Even brand like Xiaomi dump their non-flagship model really soon. I have one, bought as a new model, was officially supported for like a year. Great.

  • 86? That's like the double of our entire company management combined! You'll do good.

  • What happened to cylindrical plugs?

    Jump

  • I'm no expert, but I'll give you my two cents. I play bass guitar and there are two types of connectors between amplifier and speaker cabinet. First one is plain barrel jack, second one is Neutrik. I've been talking with local amp maker and he said something like this: "jack is fine with low wattage, but with more power you'd do better with neutrik - it has much larger contact area " So I believe this is similar problem. We were speaking like 400-600W of power where jack starts to be worse. How about vacuum cleaner or kettle? Or similar appliance that can do 2kW... Small contact and higher drain means more heat generated in that spot.

  • OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says his company is 'out of GPUs' to which I reply 'welcome to the party, pal'

  • Planescape is awesome. The only game that came close to its story (and one I've played) is Disco Elysium, which is quite a feat. Given how DE is praised everywhere.

  • Whats the most rewatchable TV series of all time?

  • Since this came to effect, there's nothing forbidding these authors to push update which has no new content except for maybe main menu "we're still alive" sign...
