At least one studio, Larian, has confirmed this is the case for them.

When discussing the pressures the company faces when releasing a game in early access, such as audience expectations, Vincke told us, “Interestingly, another [issue Larian is facing] is really the price of RAM and the price of SSDs and f**k, man. It’s like, literally, we’ve never had it like this.”

He continued, “It kind of ruins all of your projections that you had about it because normally, you know the curves, and you can protect the hardware. It’s gonna be an interesting one. It means that most likely, we already need to do a lot of optimization work in early access that we didn’t necessarily want to do at that point in time. So it’s challenging, but it’s video games.”

I tried to find it but I must have hallucinated that scene after having one too many jumja sticks.

Bing, Yandex, and a few others yeah.

Meanwhile on DDG

Probably even simpler than that - the author thought “people hacking redacted government documents sounds like a juicy headline!”.

Didn’t someone have to take a big ole bite out of a leola root in one scene, neon paint and all?

get out of here with your moderate, nuanced viewpoint!

Someone has never taken a big ole bite out of a vidalia onion! Like eating a spicy apple.

That’s it for me, goodnight internet.

The thought of Trump as a secret weaboo terrifies me for some reason.

Path of Exile 2 started working in wayland native (proton_enable_wayland) and it performs much better than through kwin or whatever is used by default.

The game I remember had a top down view, and looked more modern than that. It might have been a late DOS game but our computer at that time ran windows 3.1 on top so it could have been an early windows game too.

Edit: I’m pretty sure the game was “Super Solvers: Gizmos & Gadgets!” and I was remembering the intro/home screen!

I used to play this edutainment title in the early 90s. All i can remember is cartoonish art, a professor or scientist or something and you had to solve puzzles by building machines i think?

Fair enough.

this is art lol

Normal ass websites will monitor user inputs to do things like profile users. I’m pretty sure those “click to show youre not a robot” captchas actually capture how your mouse moves to the box, for example. It’s not that crazy honestly.

Most of it is ice.

I’m sorry, I thought you were joking. I wasn’t making fun of him at all, merely adding some support to what protist was saying - there’s a difference between saying someone is narcissistic (exhibiting narcissitic personality traits) and saying someone has NPD, or “grandiose narcissism”. I think a small amount of narcissism is probably necessary for maintaining things like self-esteem. Greek mythology is full of some really messed up stories, I think we can both agree on that at least.

Ovid! That’s the name I couldn’t remember. I looked it up and ‘Echo and Narcissus’ is definitely the version I remember reading in school.
