Frontier for Elite
Psygnosis for Lemmings and a bunch of other fun games on the Amiga.

quality web design sure, but Meta/Facebook is also well known for using dark patterns to promote stickiness and engagement. They’ve built Facebook to be addictive and keep people on it.

yeah, good tips. I got frustrated and table flipped on it. I found out about the ASIO mods after the fact. Still annoying that they were selling this product in this state and getting away with it.

I bought this recently and the installation and setup experience was so broken and painful on W11 that I uninstalled it out of frustration.

Graphics were ganked (only showed the top left 25% of the screen on 4K, stretched to fill the screen),
Required a UPlay account signup that sent me to dead servers,
Wouldn’t use ASIO with my big boy audio gear,
Wouldn’t calibrate using “mic” mode plugged into a DI port on my interface and on and on.

It’s just a disaster and I wasn’t willing to put any effort into figuring out how to de-UPlay the thing and mod it.

With kbin and lemmy, there’s a spark of the good ol’ days, but the players are all scattered across so many disconnected grids. I’m sure there are some great communities popping up, but they may be fleeting, or instances might crash and disappear. Mastodon is good, and growing every day and also has some of that Ye Olde Twitter Feels, but — BUT! — I don’t have a lot of fun on it.

Has anybody found any fun communities to share?

I wish we could get Steam Link on Xbox. That’d be the ideal solution for me since I’ve got the controller already setup. The Shield is probably a decent solution, but it’s an extra device in the chain.

you realize modern browsers have millions of lines and over a decade (or two!) of legacy code running that are under constant scrutiny by actors who spend all their time finding exploits in binary executables, right?

you realize your operating system also ships system updates on a regular, often daily basis, right?

would you rather they leave security holes open exposing your computer to bad things?

OLight I2R?

I don’t love the pejorative “normies”.

I have some anecdotal evidence of Spacey being a real creep while he was in our city shooting some films. He was notorious at a local bar and even banned for bad behavior around some of the men there. I have no doubt he’s a total creep.

I have already been updated! Nice work!
