The fact that each instance can have its own rules and culture is f a b. I love that’s one of the criteria. Mander.xyz should have a ‘identify all the creatures from the Triassic’ image captcha.

Yeah good call fringe was a great show that didn’t outstay it’s welcome.

First off I have to show my lack of taste by mentioning I will play any mainline final fantasy game.

But games I recommend and will likely buy the next ones are Persona 3R/4G/5R and The Witcher 3 with DLC / Cyberpunk 2077.

All great games of high quality, though some do not like the W3 combat mechanics.

Not necessarily a favourite but I have a lot of time for Drone Metal - classic example would be ØØ Void by Sunn O))). You can stick on a pair of headphones and the world ceases to exist.

For me I loved Dragon Age 2 beacuse I came from Mass Effect and the streamlined effect totally felt like an ME game to me. Also loved the idea of setting things in one city it was something different. Totally get why people don’t like it tho.

Sad to hear but probably good to cut losses - Reminded me of an old Post from earlier. Props to anyone who can make it work.

Not sure, but Dopesmoker by Sleep would be up there.

Where to start?

One of the greats from the C64. A step up from Last Ninja in terms of graphics and gameplay. The soundtrack is killer for the time. Still sad that System 3 never seemed to get close to releasing a Last Ninja 4

I’m running pleroma with bdx-town/mangane ui. Does the trick looks slick. Could have moved to akkoma but haven’t. Been running for ~ 3 years.

First of the F1 triple headers. Blues V Chiefs championship final. <-- Someone else is the rugby head I’ll just be hanging out.

Haven’t seen many, but when I tried rewatching iron man 2 if felt disjointed and tonally weird. And love and thunder was disjointed as well. Not a marvel movie fan at all though.

Insert Anthem and ME: Andromeda here.

Sad. I was thinking the buyout was more about owning ip e.g halo, fallout tv shows than the devs. I guess in ms world any other studio can take over game development.

Yeah it’s detrimental that approaches used in other apps don’t render in mastodon. It weakens the potential of the fediverse, and for those that understand fedi = mastodon. Who knows how it will react to proposals for groups etc.

Very cool. I imagine having threads using the protocol helps a fair bit.

Yep. Compared to W3 felt like more busywork in CP2077

Apparently Rostelecom owned about 45% when the Ukraine war happened. Jolla were trying to get out of this arrangement which took some time,.

Ooh ok - I thought this project was due to be discontinued good to see it ticking over.

Great to see he’s enthusiastic about it, not sure genpop is though.

It’s more like - what if I just posted here on The Verge, and you could follow me on Mastodon natively? That’s way bigger than ICQ, I think.

The idea you could post from your own business/personal/group website and not have to run through social an intermediary that holds you hostage is a killer feature.

Put me in the crowd that would jump to Linux rather than Windows 11 but my sw (Affinity Apps) don’t work on it.

Most of the other apps needed work on it. I just don’t need all the BS Microsoft push for my work machine.

Edit: Use Linux desktop on other machines.
