Trying to get things lined up for the Dawntrail expansion for Final Fantasy XIV next week. When first announced I wasn’t very excited, but as it gets closer I’m looking forward to it more and more.
Also dispensing libertea in Helldivers 2
You’ll have to ask the company that eventually buys them out!
What annoys me is you still have to pay for audio books.
Have production costs increased or has marketing/publishing costs gone up dramatically as gaming attempts to get a greater demographic and introduce predatory monetisation methods? Tools and techniques for game development surely improve over time making development easier and more cost effective.
I have no preference! It was to do with Spring/yaml config and some really strange conflict which required the use of single quotes. I’m still a total noob in the world of software dev, so I wouldn’t be able to explain why it worked 🤣
Removed double quotes, added single quotes
The article didn’t really have any substance. To sum it up: “3 Body Problem shouldn’t have been associated with GoT. The book is better. Don’t like it? Watch Battlestar Galactica!”
90% of the time book to movie/TV adaptations have an interior outcome, but the standard of the content produced is still great in its own way.
I haven’t read 3 Body Problem, but I did enjoy the show. I’m looking forward to another season.
For me it was Lincoln and The Hate U Give. I gave the movies a chance but 30 mins in I just wasn’t feeling them. I think for THUG it was a secret showing at a cinema and I’d gone in with the expectation of an action/comedy movie so may not have been in the right frame of mind.
It’s nice to not be on the hype train for every major game release, because ultimately they will have the same shitfuckery shoed in, likely because of publishers. BG3 was a genuinely fun game and I’m glad Larian has done so well. You can really see a difference in games when it’s made from passion rather than the drive to make as much money as possible.
If anyone genuinely feels this way and wants to get started in coding, I highly recommend doing one of the mooc.fi courses. Codecademy is fine as a taster/refresh but don’t waste money on the premium when something like mooc is available for free.
I really wish Titanfall 2 had been more successful. I loved the mech gameplay and it really fulfilled that fantasy. Here’s hoping we eventually get a Titanfall 3
I’ve only recently joined the dev world and I saw this post in the morning. Late this afternoon I’m doing a deployment that fails, couldn’t determine the cause as I’m a noob, before bothering a more senior dev for help I run it again… It worked.
I suspect this is all part of the long term plan; provide the service at a reduced fee so people gain reliance on the tech, then increase the cost over time. We see this happen everywhere.
I can see the writer’s point with regard to Encarta being a much more interactive experience that you don’t get with the likes of Wikipedia, but you’re right, it’s not that unfortunate that knowledge is being shared by Wikipedia for free
Not all landlords are scumbags, but there’s a cliche for a reason.
I’d also recommend disabling Normandy in Firefox.
I just need to put this out there, Branston beans are superior to Heinz. The flavour and the bean juice consistency are just so much better, ever had Heinz with a bit of cheddar added and bean like “I much prefer this slightly thicker consistency!”; Well you get that with Branston without the need to add cheese. Also Heinz has this weird metallic tang to it, as if their beans have been floating in their watery bean water for longer than necessary.
Switch to Branston, you won’t regrat it.
Without a doubt, I’m so disappointed with Inkbound following their Early Access, battle pass and trying to shill cosmetics. I was initially excited for it following Monster Train. As it stands I can’t recommend Inkbound and I’ve not got high hopes for its future.
This gave big uncanny valley vibes. I imagine it was meant to feel like a magical advert, but instead it felt creepy.
