I’m still hoping Alan Wake 2 will end up on Steam some day.

It seems to have gotten a pretty mediocre reception in a crowded market space prone to “winner takes all”, so flopped pretty hard

Back in my day we only had music about wholesome topics like giving women jewelry (“she want a pearl necklace”).

Bilewater boss isn’t that hard once you realize you can stand in the water and spam ranged attacks at him. The arena fight preceding him is harder.

I installed one that gives me 1000 rosaries when I press f3. I came to the conclusion that being able to buy things was more about grinding than anything else, and I didn’t enjoy it.

Technically cheating I guess but I don’t think it really makes the game any easier.

This is almost certainly a sampling error.

Maybe they’ll remove the gambling. Probably not but it would be good if they did.

Apparently it’s more common than I realized. Most games doing it apparently don’t tell you it’s happening. For example I played RE4 when it was new and had no idea it had dynamic difficulty.

Dude hasn’t been relevant since the 90s. Who cares what he thinks.

The term to look for is out of band management. Typically this will provide serial/console access to a device, and can often perform actions like power cycling. A lot of server hardware has this built in (eg idrac for Dell, IPMI generically). Some users will have a separate oobm network for remotely accessing/managing everything else.

Why does anyone care about him in the first place? I really don’t understand why anyone gives this dude any attention, he seems like a loser that’s never accomplished anything.

It’s been interesting to see this agenda switch from D to R over the least 30 years in the US.

Wow, not being developed by Relic huh?

I tried the demo, couldn’t figure out how to do anything, gave up. Bit too alpha for me at the moment, I’ll try again when it’s further along. The demo is very rough

It’s a traditional roguelike with tiles…

Honestly yeah, graphics snob. I agree that if you played it for a few hours you’d get used to it.

I think it should also include a pony and solve the war in Ukraine

There are a lot of characters who are good people. A lot of bad ones too . A lot of the good ones you’ve previously pissed off so they start out barely putting up with you talking to them (and you deserve that treatment frankly).

It was very uncomfortable.

Apparently that chair is a common soft lock people hit.

Yeah, these are people who’s solution to the trolley problem is to refuse to touch it.

It amazes me that so many people obsessed about self hosting everything use this service - really asking for it.
