He’s attempting to make money by increasing the value of twitter to advertisers by using bots.

The fact that the bots are poorly implemented is icing on the cake

Reddit won’t die tomorrow, likely won’t die for years yet, but Lemmy is very much a viable alternative when it wasn’t a shadow half a year ago. It’s not a perfect change, but it’s something.

I greatly miss the ability to simply purchase a program on a disk for a given year and just have access to that tool.

Here’s to hoping it’s more complaints regarding the inferior copper quality of everyone’s favorite con artist Ea-Nasir

Sure, business insider, this is news. Write that headline…

God the only journalistic institution I respect anymore is the Onion

Always depressing when an internet mainstay goes under. I’m curious about who was so dedicated to keeping Omegle of all things off the web with attacks.

These seem to be the years the websites are unable to make money any longer and if they can’t make money from the users they will fade away.

We can only wait around and see what next shiny thing pokes it’s head around the corner to try and fill the video chat roulette

What happened with the escapist? Can’t say I even paid much attention, but I’ve been a follower of Zero Punctuation and Yahtzee’s handful of novels for years.

Kingdom Come : Deliverance is basically if Skyrim took place in a ren faire. No magic, no fantasy, just dudes in armor completing tasks for the local lords and monasteries.

Any of the fable games are decent at least; some are better than others. Personally felt the series peaked with 2.

You likely already know about the elder scrolls games, but there was a clone series called Two Worlds that were… interesting? Not fantastic, but good ideas and worth a shot.

If you haven’t played all the Witcher games they are likely exactly what you’re looking for. Personally haven’t played 1, but 2,3 are excellent.

Dragons age 1 and inquisition are good. Might be too turn based for your preference as the fights involve many party members.

Then there’s the From soft games; darksouls, etc. No real story to speak of, but very dark medieval fantasy.

You seem less of like the Dos Equis guy and more of a wind chimes instead of a penis kind of guy

Bungie’s Halo soundtracks were iconic and can be laid at the feet of Marty and Michael.

I had heard that Marty was difficult to work with, but it’s crazy that you wouldn’t try to retain the talent that got your brand to live in millions of people’s heads rent free.

Even stranger from Sony’s perspective. If you bought an expensive race car and the first thing you start doing is throwing away the expensive parts in favor of cheaper ones, you no longer own a race car. You own something that looks like it, but can’t perform.

Yeah Louisiana implemented a government portal that does exactly what you claim through the driver’s license app. Their database was hacked a little under a year ago with basically all private citizen information stolen.

If you set up a system to use these mechanisms the data WILL BE stolen or mishandled.

Very business as usual for them, guess the crayon box got emptied out and they got hungry

I heard the new OS sparkle dream from Venture Industries is a game changer

I had a gigabyte gaming laptop and overall it was a great value… after I fixed the graphics card drivers and updated the motherboard bios. Nothing worked right out of the box new.

If you’re just using the laptop as a browser/ ms office machine for school or something I can’t recommend the Microsoft surface tablet line enough. I’ve used a surface 3 for years for that purpose.

They don’t want to compromise battery in favor of performance and I agree. With smaller games like Hades or cult of the lamb my steam deck battery will last and last. On more demanding games like cyberpunk or Armored Core I get a little over an hour out of it best case scenario.

Beefier graphics hardware will only make that issue worse.

Whenever you want…provided you spent like 50 dollars on a starter ship in 2014

Likely because the higher ups or media facing members of the project don’t understand what it is or how it works and had it described to them with an overly simplistic analogy

There’s a power levelling method found in many Bethesda games. I’m interested if modern Bethesda will patch this on let it stay in the game for players that want the end game experience quickly.
