It is very game specific. Some were innovators for how they pushed the limits of technology of their time, others were held back by that same tech. That alone is a huge marker as to whether a remake will improve or hurt the games legacy.
I went to college before the internet was ever considered a valid source for any material. But using the internet made research extremely easy if I could determine the book source for reference.
I went back to college right around that time the internet just became the default source for everything. It was staggering how little information was expected to be known. The implicit ubiquitous access to information was a staggering foundational shift.
They seemed great up until around that time in 2016 they went public.
Before that you had all the Crusader Kings, Hearts of Iron games, Cities Skylines they helped make, not to mention Pillars of Eternity eoth Obsidian. Up through 2015 they were great.
Coconut oil is a superfood because you can eat it and use it to do butt stuff.
Mandatory housing units over every strip mall and big box store in America.
Even just a few units. Hell a few mobile homes up there even would go a long way. Forced mixed use development.
The American Independent Party is identified as the ‘American Independent Party’ or ‘AIP’ anywhere I have seen it. That’d be a pretty conscious mistake to make as far as I can tell.
If it’s like 100 tacos for $100, I think I could go for that right about now.
The emphasis in her word bubble is “And doesn’t care.” The next stooge might have more of a reason to care, since as far as Poison Ivy here is concerned: systemic change isn’t coming fast enough, if at all.
This often comes up in these threads, but the point of using the term tankie is for its association with leftism.
The traditional term people otherwise use when referring to such abuse by mods and admin is ‘fascist’ or ‘nazi’, hyperbolic or not as you demonstrated. The conflation is the point.
Some folk identify the .ml (or the pronouns of hexbear users) and work backwards from there.
Simply: the bad faith was having .ml there in the name. I’ll take him for his word and bet that’s what was meant.
*edit And it isn’t like I haven’t seen wingnuts go “.world eh? More like .nazi!” as well. It is just that whole general vibe with the people who all up and comment about blocking shit.
This whole endless debate always just feels like three Dean Brownings in a trench coat.

So you say uou’ve heard complaints about Lemmy devs, who run the instance in question here, for four years.
That is a direct illustration of what I mean: from the start of Lemmy there’s been complaints of the devs.
As the Fediverse becomes bigger, this type of stuff isn’t going to be wanted by any entity especially not ones owned by Meta.
I was more responding to the person from threads with that line. But I was more identifying a convenient alignment than a conspiracy to act.
I mean there are Lemmy communities with discord servers dedicated to brigading tankies and falsifying interactions on places like .ml. One of those communities is on my instance and comes up on my feed constantly. But I will admit that I have not seen that effort from Threads.
But nonetheless, since it is a fair assumption any thread with the word ‘tankie’ in it is going to go off the rails: I am not suggesting .ml admins and their mods aren’t overblowing their interactions or bringing a lot of this onto themselves. They’re just as mired in bad faith as the next poorly run community or instance. I am just saying I am not surprised by it.
The fundamental source of conflict is that developers of Lemmy, who are also admins of .ml, describe themselves as marxist-leninist. Their very allowed existence is a conundrum for some, regardless of what they do.
So there is absolutely interest in the elimination of instances like .ml from the Fediverse, especially as things like Meta’s Threads moves in to centralize communities and standardize discussioms so everything can start aligning with thr valuation of their investment.
Over the past year on Lemmy I have witnessed a constant fight between people on hexbear, lemmygrad, and ml and people on communuties like tankiejerk, meanwhileongrad, and the like.
Both appear to constantly brigade and overmoderate their respective areas of control. Since my instance: sh.itjustworks, is some combination of defederated to hexbear and lemmygrad, I mostly just see threads like these complaining about tankies. I only assume the effort is being matched by those instances I don’t see to warrant this problem being so persistent.
So to me there’s so much active bad faith behavior between the camps I assume they all just have a paranoid view of the fediverse and are mostly just perpetuating a cycle of bad faith. Maybe that relationship is terminal if just people can’t handle each other.
Pirated Windows 95. Pirated Windows 98. Pirated Windows XP. A usb stick with Red Hat I never installed. Pirated Windows 7. A usb stick with Fedora I never installed. Pirated Windows 10. Raspbian for a retropie unit. Legit copy of Windows 10. A usb stick with ChimeraOS and a rig on the dining room table that maybe, just maybe, I will install.
I’ll get there.
Marginally. The paper analyzes the capabilities as they existed in the 1980s, but doesn’t draw strong conclusions as to why that may be. It does demonstrate how reliance on central planning results in inadequaciea when said central planning is not operating well, though.
The paper doesn’t really mention it but the central planning of the USSR was actively reeling from Brezhnev dying, Andropov dying, and Chernenko either dying or about to die at the time the CIA thing was written. So yeah, correct is an accurate if imprecise way to put it.
The earliest PS3s could run PS2 games. Those were nice, rare, and expensive.
I wish they’d kept up with the hardware backwards compatibility.
