Simultaneously were in the age of retro revivals with emulation being at its peak thanks to the open source software community and the absolute pile of handheld form factor consoles available in the market.

Every bad launch has damaged the industry as a whole. The reputation for PC gaming has been diminished by a thousand cuts. No one expects a game to be good on launch. Everyone has been burned at least once by this.

This reminds me of when Rick Moranis was attacked on the street in NYC in 2020 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/man-arrested-new-york-city-attack-actor-rick-moranis-n1247852

You didn't EMPTY THE GREASE TRAAAaaaAAYY!

The only people that are going to stop this behavior are going to be Valve. They need to get on the stopkillinggames.com bandwagon because they are affected the most.

All these constant demands for refunds because a developer violates the terms of agreement by adding DRM or additional online service requirements months after the initial release that makes your product now unplayable is more than a trend. It's the future of the steamdeck if Valve doesn't do something about it.

My vote is universal Blue and its spins like Bluefin or Bazzite

I think it's hilarious with the market for Linux handhelds this hot that these companies are still like "ew no thanks"

Honestly, this article shouldn't be called how to. I'm trying to make heads or tails of this documentation but I would love to see more. I just want to recompile Mystical Ninja starring Goemon as it's my favorite N64 game from my childhood.

Can you tell if an AI is being trained on these Lemmy instances? How would you detect it and stop it?

💯

Large language models are going to replace search. Naturally concise recommendations are easier for humans to interact with than a swath of web pages. The problem that you get here is this is going to disincentive the creation of new web content outside of the walled gardens we already have. The walls are just going to get higher.

💯 exactly where I learned about it too.

Yeah they don't even need you to on TV and recant your crimes against the state. They can just disappear you and train an AI to become a mouthpiece for the state. Wild.

I gotta be honest, I love his deadpan dry ass thumbnails.

In reality no, they are not.

Thanks ... I hate it

That's what happens when you have to be a loss-leader to secure your position in the market. Even when the government steps in to protect you you still claim it's a loss even though you've been crowned leader.

Just a thought, remakes like this tend to appeal to people in the PC crowd. We've all moved to PC for various different reasons. Better games, better prices, better hardware? Emulation and software preservation is the name of the game for a lot of people. Those people are working everyday to make things like the steam deck the dream game console they always wanted. That's the kind of person who will go back and replay Final Fantasy 7 four or five times.

The tale of Elon will be retold to our children for years to come about how billionaire philanthropists were incredibly dumb. How they squandered all their good faith and love for a payout before they cut and run. Never forget the tale of Elon, a man who could not tell right from wrong. He wanted to save us from a future grim as long as it was saved by him.

They don't care. They are lazy cowards who will give up everyone's rights for a false sense of safety. Trump can say whatever he wants because they don't take anything he says seriously. The more active among them are convinced that Trump is a "tool" to get what they want. Little do they know they are the ones being used.

150 million is nothing for what Linus has control over. That's like the combined net worth of 100 of the top paid strippers in Vegas. (I'm going by vice documentary numbers)
