I’m Sol.Orion on SJW, but I’ll likely not use that account anymore.
Rainbow Six Siege has had a pretty strong competitive scene for pretty much the entirety of it’s lifespan- it’s definitely fluctuated a bit in popularity, but the prize pools have always been reasonable numbers, and it’s always had decent viewership.
Ha, I didn’t remember what I used so I grabbed my phone to try Librera FD, and realized I already use it.
That’s a weird limitation.
idk that GoG does need to license them that way? I assumed they just operated as a storefront and take a cut of the listed price like Steam or Epic. As for having their own staff, usually these kind of things have a community solution already it just might be a pain in the ass. I assumed they were either getting permission from modders to ship their fixes, or they were basically using them as guidelines to make their own. Either approach would take their development costs down.
The answer is always ‘no’.
There’s a comm on lemmy.dbzer0.com. Alternatively, google FMHY. When I bailed from Spotify, I just used SpotDL to download all my music a playlist at a time. Worked fine, but might be a bit beyond your skill level to set that up.
It’s really just storage space that’s the limiting factor for me. I’m already uninstall/reinstall juggling a few games as it is so carving a partition to play with Linux hurts.
At some point I’ll grab a third SSD and make half of it a linux partition or something.
Uh, really? The English version is pretty convincing that it is- it even lists three different methods they used over the years. The sources seem convincing, but I’m quite literally judging the book by it’s title there.
Well, that seems really neat. No Windows support, though, so I’ll check back in when I eventually finally definitely jump to Linux…
Excellent, straight to the highest possible authority.
They’re memes, but they do still have meaning. Being fake-serious about the classifications used to be part of the joke, but that was about three social media platforms and ten years ago for me so maybe that part got lost.
My understanding was that all snakes are nope ropes, but only venomous ones are danger noodles. Is it the other way around?
All the guesses are either Gopher Snake or Garter Snake, so probably not a danger noodle. Just a nope rope.
Tbf, you can weaponize a lot of methods of FTL in a pinch.
In Mass Effect their guns literally work on the same fundamentals as their FTL, just scaled down.
40k’s Warp… well, it’s where Psykers get their power from so every space wizard is kinda weaponizing FTL at all times if you squint. The warp itself doesn’t need weaponizing, but you probably could.
Stargates just sort of… disintegrate things that are in the way when they open. I can’t remember an instance of them weaponizing that, but I’d be shocked if it never happens.
Early versions of Stellaris had something similar, but reduced in scale- it’s a 4X grand strategy where you’re basically controlling a spacefaring species you create, if you’re not familiar with it.
They did away with multiple FTL systems at some point, but early on in the games lifespan when creating your species you’d pick between hyperdrives, wormholes, or warp iirc.
Hyperdrives were basically Star Wars style space travel- predetermined FTL ‘roads’ in space that you can travel along.
Warp was ‘the ship teleports from where it is to where it’s going’.
Wormhole was the most interesting one to me, because it used giant ‘hubs’ you’d need to build in space to… well, make a wormhole from the hub to wherever the ships were trying to go. The downsides were that you had to build hubs and they were expensive, and you could only actually leave from the hub itself which had a limit on how many wormholes it could make. The upside was that it had dramatically better range than the other FTL options so you could build one on the borders of an enemy and then basically show up wherever you wanted.
deploy a huge solar sail and wait two weeks to charge the capacitors.
The one exception are JumpShips (usually WarShips) with Lithium-Fusion batteries, which allow for a second jump without the recharge time. Those are functionally extinct in the Inner Sphere outside of Comstar, though.
Halo’s Slipspace has always been my favorite. It’s another dimension where instead of being able to move in four directions, things can move in eleven. This results in travel being faster there than in normal space.
The fun part is that the UNSC and the main antagonists- the Covenant- use the exact same method of FTL travel. The Covenant are just dramatically better at it, to the point of UNSC ships that attempt to run away from the Covenant via slipspace sometimes having the Covenant fleet they were fleeing already there and waiting on them.
The holy trinity of PS2 platformers is, in my order of preference: Jak and Daxter, Sly Cooper, and Ratchet and Clank.
For Jak and Daxter and Sly Cooper in the first game in the series is pretty different from the rest so if you bounce consider giving the sequel a go.
Not parody, but still amusing.
I’ve been playing on an RX 6600 @ 1440p with zero problems. I didn’t even bother turning it on, so terrible RT performance is news to me.
