I like your range

can we have two weeks without a shit take from Tim Sweeney ?

yeah it sounds like the old immigrant taking your job but also cashing in welfare

I picked up 2x32 last year before the craze at 130e. It’s ddr4 but still… around a 6x increase

imba ? limbo ? I can’t parse that word

edit I found it, it’s an alternative to lmao

Oh, and I can’t speak for Linux compatibility personally, I’ve only read that it works fine.

No, it’s perfect for me, but I don’t have particularly big hands. For a point of comparison, it’s every so slightly tinier than my Xbox Series controller, and holds better than it. I always found that one tends to slowly slip forward out of my grip (=towards my belly) because of its tapered shape.
In contrast the Ultimate reminds me a little of the Gamecube controller, because it’s slightly more concave below, where the ring fingers come to rest, and that helps stabilize it.

My single gripe with it is the dpad, which coming from the Xbox Series feels like a bit of a downgrade : not clicky, a tad mushy. I’ve known worse, but it’s not the best. Fortunately that’s not a dealbreaker for me as I don’t use it often

I own a couple of 8bitdo Ultimate 2, they’re excellent and seem to tick all the boxes, but they’re on the smaller end I guess.

aha ! alright I don’t know this one

Painkiller is from 2004, excellent shooter with some unique weapons, mechanics and set pieces.

I am definitely trying it again at some point, the plot is too intriguing and the sense of discovery too satisfying to give up on it. Maybe I wasn’t in the right headspace or something.

ah, that’s a lot of Hollow Knight and its sequel Silksong. A general trait of metroidvanias

I had a blast playing it last year. Great suggestion, it’s a 1st person story-driven power fantasy (although the story is on the simplistic side).

to temper their excitement, I usually love games where you have to figure things out for yourself, but that one had me completely stumped. I eventually uninstalled, with a bitter taste in my mouth because I really wanted to figure it out (and the mechanics are fun, the entire thing is lovingly crafted…). That’s coming from a guy who finished most of the Myst games.

Just saying because that suggestion doesn’t really mesh well with your OP statement

hah, yes. Xfiles vibes

hah, yes, I suppose that’s what I mean.

I’m not sure I see what you’re referring to wrt to this :

is there some psycho farmer community that gets off on torture or something that i never heard about?

quite frankly I’d rather visit the RDC countryside than the US

😅 see you in 2031 ! 😭

yea that’s just playing on semantics. Of course machine learning will keep assisting many different workflows, thank you Tim.
Go ahead with your ML-assisted procedural animations, your ML-enhanced denoising, your ML-powered stochastic mesh pruning.

What people don’t want is generated visuals/music that try and pass off as art. I’d love to summon debility to explain that the ruling class doesn’t get it, but they do -it’s a convenient way for them to save on human labor that is also… just too tempting to use for replacing art as well.

yea that would be grand. If only to modify and enhance existing levels
