bonegakrejg,

Its just like with idealizing music eras. People remember the stand outs and forget the bad and mediocre stuff so it seems like everything was better in whatever time.

bonegakrejg,

SNES does have a lot of the better games in lots of great series. Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Castlevania, Final Fantasy etc etc etc.

Though the cheat answer is probably PC since its been around for decades can just evolve with whatever is going on.

bonegakrejg,

I do it the old school way and just use stopwatches. Especially with running, it’s easy to just go by time and record it manually.

bonegakrejg,

Its basically a perfect game. It never feels dated and has one of the most horribly catchy songs ever created by man. Its weird that it’s so fun, its like as simple as you can really boil down a game, its literally just arranging blocks into lines. But it just clicks with the human brain on some deep level.

bonegakrejg,

I tried it briefly and it was like if someone made a social media service that was only the annoying aspects of social media.

bonegakrejg,

Joplin for notes, and Rclone drastically improves any cloud services.

bonegakrejg,

1 and 2 are some of my favorite games ever. They’re sort of like Pac-Man or Tetris, they just nailed such a basic, fun gameplay experience that you can always go back to it and get sucked in.

Also props for GZDoom and Brutal Doom updating them for modern hardware.

bonegakrejg,

Look up Kneesovertoesguy on Youtube, he has a lot of good shoulder stability exercises.

The muscles the guy has labelled in the video look like rotator cuff muscles, which are commonly trained for shoulder issues.

bonegakrejg,

I’m like that with OG Doom. Its half nostalgia and half it just being a fun game to play.

bonegakrejg,

The third book is excellent as well. Easilly one of my favorite scifi series.

bonegakrejg,

I’m on the 3rd Liveship Traders book by her right now. So 6 books deep into Elderlings with no plans on stopping. Robin Hobb is a complete genius at character writing.

bonegakrejg,

Old school FPS games. Doom, Quake, Unreal, etc. They’re just simple, cathartic stress relief.

How much does a creator's worldview influence whether you use their tech or consume their media?

Watching the drama around kagi unfold and it has me wondering how much you take into consideration a creator’s view on things like homophobia, sexism, racism, etc. when deciding to use a product. I think most of us have a bar somewhere (I would imagine very few on this website would ever consider registering on an altright...

bonegakrejg,

Its tricky, because how much do I really know about people’s views who I’ve never met? Especially more famous people who might just be crafting a public image. They might be hiding aspects of thier views that are bad publicity, or just being controversial to drum up attention.

bonegakrejg,

I was thinking Soul Reaver too! I think the problem is that it had a handful of mediocre sequels that made people eventually lose interest in the series. But the original game was one of the best on the PS1. I loved the whole improvised combat mechanic where you have to use anything around you in the environment that could hit the vampires’ weakneses.

bonegakrejg,

Morrowind and Oblivion both have a massive fan following but I think always get unfairly overlooked for Skyrim.

bonegakrejg,

OpenMW may as well be a remake, it runs very well and updates everything for modern hardware. Thats probably the way to go if you want to play Morrowind today.

bonegakrejg,

I don’t know if this helps, but if you use DuckDuckGo as a default search engine in your browser, its easy to look things up on Wiktionary using !wt. And yeah, Wiktionary is awesome and very underappreciated.

bonegakrejg,

If you liked Assassin’s Apprentice, Robin Hobb wrote a lot of other excellent books set in the same world.

Empire of the Vampire was great if you want something like The Witcher.

bonegakrejg,

I could see that, both series really work from very good character writing, if thats someone’s thing. I loved both as well.

bonegakrejg,

If I’m thinking of the same scene, it was Bobbie the first time she’s on Earth and has kind of a panic attack because she’s never been anywhere where you could just be out in the open like that. I forget which book it was though.

Looking for application to do very simple 2D animation

I spend a lot of time creating system diagrams for presentations. I always use Inkscape to draw these diagrams. However I ran into a scenario where I wanted to animate them. The animations I’m looking for are dead simple. I want to be able to fade in, fade out, and slide basic shapes. The way I worked around it this time was...

bonegakrejg,

Synfig might be what you’re looking for.

The Book of the Ancestor series by Mark Lawrence.

Recommendations for a FOSS Cross-Platform Note-Taking Application

Up to now I’ve been using Simplenote, which has a Linux client (but also Android & iOS) & supports live collaboration on notes. However, Simplenote hasn’t had a meaningful update for a long time, & it’s recently been behaving strangely, e.g. notes undeleting themselves, line duplications & undeletions....

bonegakrejg,

Markor is FOSS and stores notes as md or txt files. I like that feature as well, I can sync it to outside devices and not need any specific app to open them.
