Is there a book/saga that you finished and cannot forget to the point where it gets harder to read other books?

For me, the first time this happened was with The Royal Assassin Saga from Robin Hobb, and then Metro 2033.

This year, it’s The Witcher saga… (I can’t move on) I love all those introspective books with thoughtful heroes trying to make sense of the world they are forced to evolve into.

Do you have any other book like that?

you don't need more 4GB of RAM
  • I have this misunderstanding even if I use Linux a lot that when I work for a long time with a lot of things opened… my RAM fill up and never get down.

    I heard it had to do with swap, can you quickly explain why?

  • Vanguard just went live and LoL players are already claiming it's bricking their PCs
  • You’re right, DoTa is a lot more chaotic, but there’s a lot of action on the map! Macro play is not necessarily doing nothing in this game and often time fight breakout for runes, etc…

    I think it’s about preference rather than reality because we had two completely different experiences so yeah, I love League but I don’t see the point of playing it now!

  • Vanguard just went live and LoL players are already claiming it's bricking their PCs
  • Ahaha no I swear to god Dota 2 is ridiculously fun

    In LoL you play the same game over and over again.

    Yesterday on dota I planted trees with my friends to hide and wait for people to come to ambush them lol

    You can do all sort of funny stuff, TPing people in your base etc… everything is OP so you don’t feel like you have no agency. You feel like it’s just your skills that are lacking!

  • Assassin is actually amazing!
  • Im very good at Divinity 2 with archer and I suck at BG:III because I didn’t learn the system.

    But Astarion allowed to clutch so many fights, it’s crazy how he can do anything. I’m nearly at the end of the game now, he does anything he wants!

    That’s so fun, the freedom that Larian give you in their game!

  • How do you find projects to work on when learning a new language?

    I have been learning C++/Elixir recently and I’ve made a distributed port scanner & and a streaming platform with Elixir (what an amazing language to work with) and some fun in C++ (also super cool to use).

    I feel like I gained basic mastery of the languages, but I’ve been meaning to deepen my knowledge of them. However, I don’t know where to start now…

    Can you give me ideas, open-source project that I could help, etc… ? Thanks!

    Help me address some problems with C++ (beginner questions)

    I've been trying to learn a system language because it would enable me to access a whole new world of possibility for games, tools, and potential projects. My main problem when learning the language are:

    • can I write modern C++ code using the newer standards and still compile with libraries from older standards?
    • how do I even organize a C++ project? Look at the linked project, the CMakeList.txt is so hard to understand, the syntax looks so hard to write.
    • how do I install dependencies? You're going to laugh at me, but I always used languages with package managers and I looked again at the linked project, and they write a whole CMakeList.txt to import ImGui (GUI library I wanna try) but if you compare the structure of the files, it's different from the ones on the repository of ImGui.

    As you see there are a lot of problems and it pains me to not be able to solve them because Rust is so unfun to use and work with! Do you think I should try C++, carry one with it?

    Thanks, hector.

    Do you feel like top-down point-and-click movement is not precise?

    I was watching the IGN overview on “No Rest For The Wicked” and they say that they abandoned the point-and-click system in favor of WASD because it was not precise enough.

    I don’t mind it, either way is fine. However I love the League of Legends type of movement, it’s a factor that makes me still play the game.

    (DotA has even better and precise movement mechanics but they are less fun I think)

    It’s hard to master yeah, with the unlocked camera and all but I feel like you can be very precise and do exactly what you want: it is very satisfying.

    What do you think? Do you know other games that use this point-and-click movement?
