  • Maybe, but Safari has a dogshit UI and I much prefer Firefox over it. I despise the fact that they don't let other browsers use their extensions, though (even though they're forced to reskin Safari). I'd install AdGuard on Firefox if I could.

  • Personally, I just really liked the platforming and movement. There aren't many platformers that come close to Celeste's polish, and I 100%-ed it (there's some secret strawberries that are pretty damn hard to get), the golden strawberry challenges where you have to not die are super challenging, and I ended-up trying to speedrun it for fun. The modding community also has some excellent maps with practice areas that teach you advanced movement mechanics (I highly recommend the "Strawberry Jam" community map pack).

  • Same. Overall, I'm happy with my iPhone, but not having an actual browser with an actual ad blocker (uBlock Origins) is really painful. I've had to live with ProtonVPN's ad blocking, but that only prevents sites from loading, it doesn't hide the actual ad links...

  • Dragon Age: Origin Ultimate Edition: My personal favorite game of all time. Got me into the dark fantasy genre and RPGs in general. A simple story that has so much replay value based on the various decisions you can make with an amazing cast of characters. The rest of the series has been steadily going downhill since, unfortunately (in my opinion, at least).

    Celeste: Best platformer ever. I've sunk hundreds of hours into it, and ever since I discovered there was an active modding community (seriously, the modding tools are so good now) I've been going through modded community expansions.

    Slay The Spire: The most fun I've had playing a card game. It's extremely challenging, but very well balanced, and there's nothing else quite like it.

  • No no no, see that's the opposite of what I want. I want more games where you can just straight-up be the villains. Not an anti-hero, not someone who's trying to change the system from within, not a secret rebel who needs to go along with the bad stuff to keep their cover.

    I want more games where you can just be a villain. I want more games where you can rob the banks, kill the NPCs that aren't listening, have a big fortress of doom, and fight-off heroes who are trying to stop you.

    Not because of some gray moral backstory that somehow justifies some of it (or that will have people jumping through hoops to justify it like with Mr. Freeze and his wife).

    Just because you can.

    Tyranny gives you a bunch of options to just be evil and not enough RPGs do that properly.

  • Used to be ads on the side of videos, and they were still scams like "Hit the target to win a FREE ipad!" At least they didn't block the actual content. No one should ever feel bad about blocking ads lmao.

  • In the same boat. GPM was so much better than Spotify in terms of UI and basic features. People hype-up Spotify's recommendations, but since moving there after GPM shut down, I don't think I've ever had good music in my Spotify recommendations. Lack of basic features like being able to dislike specific songs, which they keep removing it with A/B testing, is so fucking infuriating!

  • That's good to hear. I remember not really enjoying the end game much, because a lot of bosses were so fast that they kind of required you to trade hits because yours were so slow with Greatswords and Ultragreatswords. Malenia especially felt more annoying than challenging (especially coming off of DS3 where most of the fast-paced bosses could still be fought hitless with big weapons).

  • I'm kind of excited to go for a strength build again once the DLC releases. Greatswords and Ultragreatswords were kind of rough on release (they've been straight-up buffed like 4 times now, I think?) and I'm in the mood for some good ol' fashioned bonking.

  • Yeah, in general, you'll be fine with Firefox and any of the default filters uBlock provides (even the ones that are disabled by default). The issue usually comes from outdated third-party filter lists that try to block youTube's tracking. Since the changes, you should pretty much only rely on the official lists for anything YouTube-related.

    Or maybe OP's got another extension that tries to block ads. I know I've had to disable Enhancer for YouTube's ad blocking (because YouTube detects it immediately).

  • I find it makes my life easier, personally, because I can set up and tear down environments I’m playing with easily.

    Same here. I self-host a bunch of dev tools for my personal toy projects, and I decided to migrate from Drone CI to Woodpecker CI this week. Didn't have to worry about uninstalling anything, learning what commands I need to start/stop/restart Woodpecker properly, etc. I just commented-out my Drone CI/Runner services from my docker-compose file, added the Woodpecker stuff, pointed it to my Gitea variables and ran docker compose up -d.

    If my server ever crashes, I can just copy it over and start from scratch.

  • they don’t even call it VR but spatial computing instead.

    I was under the impression these were meant to be AR glasses, not VR glasses? Either way, I'm not really sure who their target demographic is supposed to be at that price point.
