I loved hi-fi rush. I loved the soundtrack, I loved how satisfying the combat system was while still being challenging to pull off consistently well. I always felt I was incentivised to vary my combos because of the DMC-like style meter. I loved the old-school 3d platformer feel as that was nostalgic for me. It was also just such a joyful game. Ok the story has down beats but overall it’s a really happy game. I absolutely loved my time with it.
So-called “security questions” like these are prohibited under various standards (there’s a NIST one that I can’t remember exactly, and OWASP ASVS) because they’ve always been really terrible at verifying it’s actually you answering them, and not just someone who happens to know the answer. Mother’s maiden name being the notorious example.
That’s not what this is about. Everyone agrees that damage to military assets is a criminal action, no matter how you justify it. The problem I and others have is that the actions don’t meet any sort of sensible criteria for what is “terrorism”. Most people would say terrorism must involve mass harm to people, not necessarily property. Lots of other organisations over the years should have been proscribed if “terrorism” means property damage. Anyone involved in the race riots, Just Stop Oil, hell, even Banksy, would all qualify if that was the case. It opens the door for the UK government to proscribe any organisation it doesn’t like, which is especially concerning at a time when the next government is likely to be even more authoritarian and use this event as precedent to do the same but more.
It was the thing that the public were sold about Corbyn to remove him as leader. I don’t know if he’s particularly antisemitic or not, but I think the bigger problem (for him politically) was losing 2 elections.
I’ve not used it in anger but the principle just seems like inline-styles with extra steps. However I’ve also had to change something in a large project that had a lot of dedicated classes with specific and shared styles and trying to sort that out without breaking stuff was a massive pain.
I don’t provision any two devices exactly the same way, and if I did there’s nothing stopping that provisioning script/tool from changing or becoming out of date over time since I’d only run it once every couple of years. I briefly looked at nixos but as another reply said, the major hurdle was the documentation and trying to get “the right way” to do things. I remember flakes being mentioned but being experimental and there being two other things competing as the solution to the same problem and at that point I lost interest. I moved to fedora for the first time in a decade recently and installed what I needed via dnf. It wasn’t a difficult enough process to justify learning another programming language.
Clair obscure: Expedition 33. Ok it’s not a final fantasy but it’s similar turn-based combat to FF/Persona with a lot of style and melodrama. Love it.
As a follow-up to this, my friends did buy it, I therefore bought it, I therefore played it and now have about 12 hours in it.
I thought I’d hate it, but I actually like the battle royale-style closing circle of the map. I thought I’d hate the rushed style of gameplay compared to original souls but I actually like it. And I thought I’d hate the fixed character scaling but I actually like it. The whole game is elden ring combat (not dark souls, way too fast for that) but with the experience condensed to its most primitive, combat focused form. If you want story there is some, but it’s drip-fed through fairly typical rogue-like way, so once you pass x number of successful runs you get the next story beat. The run length is a little long at a little under an hour but somehow it still has the rogue-like “just one more run” effect. If I want story I’m not going to play this, but damn is it a fun application of elden ring’s combat.
Yup it’s on the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repo
Oh look it’s chrome!
Recently had a look at graphics cards because I’m concerned about my 1080Ti dying at some point but you literally cannot find a better bang-for-buck card than this 9 year old relic (assuming you don’t need 4k, which I don’t). Never mind that newer cards also consume much more energy too. This is why campaigns like endof10.org are so important. We’ve all got perfectly good hardware, no need to throw it away just to line some scumbag corpo’s pocket.
I was so focussed on the misspelling of “losing” that I missed the chatGBT.
After reading the Rock, Paper, Shotgun review, not so much. I still haven’t finished elden ring so I’m more likely to go back to that than start a new thing that’s more of the same but not quite. It’s taking random characters from other games (Nameless king from DS3 is a named example in the RPS review) so it feels like an attempt to make money from existing assets rather than a genuine attempt to do something creative or interesting. My friends will probably get it which means I’ll probably get it but I’m not convinced we’ll stick with it.
I don’t know much about how national parks work in practice but they seem to be a way to create little feifdoms for people to get into positions of power, even if it is just the power to say you can’t park in a certain place overnight.
It doesn’t help that win10 support ending doesn’t mean your device will immediately die. It means that you’ll probably face some kind of consequences at some point in the following year and years to come, which is too hand-wavey for most people.
Seems like a strong signal for more FP4 support. Their current commitment as far as I can tell is for the FP4 to lose support in just under 2 years, so hopefully the “straight to android 15” announcement means that will change. I’d like to just keep the FP4 going as long as possible.
Ugh I don’t know why but this was the one that got me. Just no.
These are sophomores and Juniors in college.
… Who grew up in a world where computer internals were abstracted away so you never needed to know what a file was or even that they exist. I wouldn’t know what a file was either if I didn’t grow up in exactly the right time frame and have a dad who hoarded DOS PCs.
It’s not convincingly worded but I broadly agree with the petition. The OSA was supposed to hold meta etc to account but instead it’s completely cemented their position because they’re the only ones with the resources capable of complying. Instead of punishing big tech the act punishes everyone else. Absolutely ridiculous.
