Toxic_Tiger,

The game's publisher, 3D Realms, is known for its impactful history in video games and its 90s classics like Duke Nukem Forever...

Excuse me while I try and process that 3D Realms apparently exist in an alternate reality.

Toxic_Tiger,

Fair point, but I'd argue calling it a classic is a bit of a stretch.

Toxic_Tiger,

I think you might have taken what I said a bit too literally, I wasn't having a dig at you personally, I just found it surprising that anyone would consider it a classic is all. No offence intended.

Toxic_Tiger,

Toxic_Tiger,

Such is the abject failure of most voting systems in use that if you vote for a candidate who has no chance of winning, you're effectively making it easier for one of the two big candidates to win.

It's the same in the UK and I hate it.

Justice Samuel Alito Took Luxury Fishing Vacation With GOP Billionaire Who Later Had Cases Before the Court (www.propublica.org)

In early July 2008, Samuel Alito stood on a riverbank in a remote corner of Alaska. The Supreme Court justice was on vacation at a luxury fishing lodge that charged more than $1,000 a day, and after catching a king salmon nearly the size of his leg, Alito posed for a picture. To his left, a man stood beaming: Paul Singer, a...

Toxic_Tiger,

Must be really depressing when a crooked Supreme Court Justice story comes out, and there's more than one possibility for who is referring to.

My condolences to America tbh.

Toxic_Tiger,

But even if these consequences don’t come to pass, this information still paints Musk’s attitude towards public health and how he views his responsibility to his customers as far from golden.

Why am I not surprised in the least?

Toxic_Tiger,

It's Dark Brandon time bitches

I watched it for about 10 minutes and haven't laughed so hard in a long time.

Toxic_Tiger,

I would rather not have Zuckerberg controlling more social platforms, but at the same time I really want Musk to crash and burn.

"Do the lives of Russians anywhere matter to the Russian empire? The answer is simple – they don’t," a political scientist says (web.archive.org)

"The emperor only values his throne and will do anything to protect it, while all others are mere resources to be exploited," writes Aleksandar Đokić, a Serbian political scientist and former lecturer at RUDN University in Moscow. "In other words, the Russian empire is knowingly throwing its own people, people of its own...

Toxic_Tiger,

3 is my favourite game in the series. I absolutely hated how it started when I first played through, but once it got going and I got the hang of some of the mechanics, it just clicked. The story is great, the bosses are interesting, the setting is cool. It just hits all the right notes.

Toxic_Tiger,

I'm the same. Relay is so slick and I'm gutted about what is happening. Even if the dev manages to keep Relay going, I don't want to support a company like Reddit who seem happy to shit all over their userbase in pursuit of profit.

Toxic_Tiger,

I've been playing The Division 2 and I'm really enjoying it. I stopped playing for a few years, and now I've managed to stop the game crashing every 5 minutes, it's really good fun.

Toxic_Tiger,

I love DRG. It's such a simple premise, and it's just so much fun. Doesn't take itself too seriously and the devs seem like a cracking bunch of lads.

Toxic_Tiger,

There's so many different fixes. In the end I tried them all, but I think the tipping point for me was disabling all in-game overlays like Shadow play, Steam, Ubisoft Connect. In fact for Steam and the EA app, I closed them completely. I've played for about a week with no crashes so far.

The rest of the fixes have running are stuff look running in admin, disabling the exploit protection for the game exe, updating the anti-cheat, running in DX11, lowering fog quality from high. If you manage to find a list of stuff to fix Div2 crashes, there's a solid chance I've tried them all.

Toxic_Tiger,

I love Titanfall 2, I've yet to find a game like it. There's so much going on and I feel that not being a twitch shooter means I can keep up more easily with the young-uns.

Criminally underplayed game.

Toxic_Tiger,

GOG.com is great. Almost all the games I remember playing as a teenager for mere single digit amounts. My latest purchase was FEAR, but my library is full of mid 90s to early 2000s stuff.

Reddit Threatens to Remove Moderators From Subreddits Continuing Apollo-Related Blackouts (www.macrumors.com)

As some subreddits continue blackouts to protest Reddit's plans to charge high prices for its API, Reddit has informed the moderators of those subreddits that it has plans to replace resistant moderation teams to keep spaces "open and accessible to users."

Toxic_Tiger,

I would argue that the default subs already suffer from a lot of those problems. What's kept me around in Reddit is definitely the more specialist subs.

Megathread for Reddit Blackouts and News - Rest of the Week(?)

hey everyone. if you want to post links or discuss the Reddit blackout, its aftermath, and what's happening going forward, please localize it to this thread in order to keep things tidy! thanks! we'll see if we need to cycle the thread again before the end of this week, but i don't know that we'll need to

Toxic_Tiger,

Woah. I mean, that article nails his whole attitude. It's so depressing to see what was such a great site come crashing down because of one tech-bro's hubris.

Lemmy is in serious need of more devs

After the (temporary) defederation announcement of earlier i checked the Lemmy repo to see if there was already a ticket on the federation limiting option like Mastodon's that people mentioned Lemmy doesn't yet have. Not only i didn't find it, i also saw that there's about 200+ open tickets of variable importance. Also saw that...

Toxic_Tiger,

My only coding experience was way back in Sixth Form in the early 2000s. I love the enthusiasm that comes across from your post.

Do it for Lemmy! For the Fediverse!
